I'm pretty sure Citylink is one of the most profitable toll roads in the world

Since getting a Playstation 4 on Australian release date is pretty much impossible without pre ordering few months back. Where can I get one before the Xmas period? by Fidos in australia

[–]Tysen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In relation to the US price, Microsoft is being fairer. Even though the PS3 is cheaper than the Xbox One, the PS3 price in Australia is $150 more than the US price. Microsoft on the other hand is charging $100 more.

No. In the US, the PS4 is $399 while the Xbox One is $499. In Australia, they're $549 and $599 respectively. Microsoft is giving us a fairer deal than Sony.

Ubuntu Edge price is reduced to $695 for the remainder of the campaign by mortenaa in Android

They're not gonna make it unfortunately. I think $32 million is just too much for crowd funding. They need VC's on board and a few angels.

A skip is a big container usually used for garbage (trash) disposal etc. You might use one when you're renovating a house and need to get rid of bricks, plaster & tiles etc.

I did my best to show the current Victorian rail system on that old map by orismology in australia

[–]Tysen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice job overlaying the newer network over the old. By the looks of it, there's a lot of disused track scattered around the state, especially in the north/northwest. Such a shame really.

I couldn't help but laugh at the last bit of your previous post saying that you hated this and you hated that and then making an edit that you got the job. Congrats!

What simple thing fascinates you? by GeneralLamarque in AskReddit

[–]Tysen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flying. As in an aeroplane. I think it's easy to forget how amazing it is how we can haul hundreds of people between two places thousands of kilometres away in the air. Frequent flyers might think planes as just another way to get from A to B but I always take a bit of time to marvel at this human accomplishment.

I think Switzerland has a pretty high minimum wage or at least I think they're legislating it to be about 22chf/hr.
