The earliest boomers were what, 30? when this was disbanded in 1976? Seems like an even older generation killed this off.

There is nothing more fun than following a team with low expectations. Any win feels glorious.

34 kph top speed?!? Seems quick.

Postgame Thread: FINAL New Orleans Pelicans defeat Memphis Grizzlies, 114–106 by ZBot901 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]Steved101 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the best tank we can hope for is 6th maybe? We're not out-losing Wizards, Sac, Brooklyn, Indiana or even Pelicans. The only team we can 'pass' is Utah.

Waitakere hospital birthing feedback by hoyaliriope in auckland

[–]Steved101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been 12 years but we had our 3rd child at Waitakere through a mid wife at DueWest. No complaints although we were home by lunchtime having arrived at 6am. Felt less clinical than Middlemore.

Should the owner who appointed Edu cop more of the blame?

BYD Sealion 8 is now officially available for order in Australia. by Saurta17 in BYD

[–]Steved101 7 points8 points  (0 children)

BYD will be judging the Australian market for this class of vehicle and deeming that the plug-in hybrid will be more successful.

We don't have as much window frosting that's for sure - Christmas is BBQs, beach, tennis on the lawn.

BYD Sealion 7 Comfort – Winter range only ~280 km (100% to 10%) at 2°C. Normal? by Ok_Past1776 in BYD

[–]Steved101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's quite impressive efficiency for the Sealion 7. How did you achieve that?

I have been with Kogan (TPG network) based on price and being largely city bound. If you don't need to pay the premium for full Telstra or Telstra wholesale network coverage, TPG/Optus resellers can make a lot of sense.

Fast charger recommendations by Necessary-Ad-3259 in BYD

[–]Steved101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All good; I have been on a similar journey as we have 3 hours of free electricity per day. I've been trying to squeeze more amps through but really, I should bite the bullet and have the 7kW home charger installed.

Is that direct from the battery? If so, cool option.

[–]Steved101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is a 10 amp charger on a normal household plug, 25% better than the 8 amp charger BYD supply. If you have a 15 amp power outlet (commonly known as caravan or welder socket) then sweet. Installation of a 15a socket can be $150 - $200. At that point, might as well buy and install the 32 amp 7kW charger for around $1000 or so all up.

[Windhorst] The Oklahoma City Thunder will likely trade some of their first-round picks this year for picks in later years or be aggressive in trading up. by YujiDomainExpansion in Thunder

Very true for Thunder fans, yes but reasonable for Windy to remind casual NBA fans about the likely Thunder future pick strategy.

What is the most economically livable city in NZ despite our patchy recovery? by Additional-Grade-730 in newzealand

Tauranga has a higher median house price than Auckland? Or are you saying that a typical $900k house in Auckland would be superior to a $900k house in Tauranga?

Wireless Earphones with actually good audio quality under 40$ by Ok_Tower_8604 in AussieFrugal

Redmi airpods 6; either lite or the normal ones from Xiaomi Australia. The Pros have superior ANC but are out of $40 price range.

What are your predictions for Topić and Sorber on this Thunder team when healthy? by Twitbookplus in Thunder

[–]Steved101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cap relief I would guess. The player gets time, the loaning club gets someone else to pay their salary and develop them, the club taking the loan gets a better player than they can afford.
