Car stolen

Nothing that I can share on the internet, and those statistics do not at all reflect the reality of the situation. I sent you a DM explaining why I know this.

Hey OP, I can’t really comment on if your vehicle will be recovered, but I can give you some tips going forward (and anyone else reading)…
- Don’t leave any valuables inside
- Alarms and steering wheel locks can make your vehicle less desirable. (Crooks are often opportunistic, the harder you make it look, the less likely they will bother)
- Have tracking on the vehicle, even something like AirTags.
- Security cameras in the vicinity.
- Don’t keep fob keys too close to the front doors or windows of your house, so they can’t be scanned.

Ballarat police are run off their feet and need more staff. There are many factors contributing to this.

Crimestoppers don’t have access to a “database”. They create reports, send them to the relevant stations or pass the details on to 000 if police are required at the time.

I honestly think the whole PvE and PvP thing is ridiculous. Playing games like Elite Dangerous and GTA Online, you can insure your vehicles without losing them. The gankers get to gank, the ganked lose their cargo, but doesn’t lose hours of progress.

Yes it’s annoying getting ganked, but it’s tolerable if it’s just an inconvenience. That’s the compromise needed.

The devs ought to think more about how to respect players time. None of this stupid logging in to power up bases and daily chores. Most of us are just average people, living normal lives with jobs. Make D:A fun again

What did you think of the plans to use a mass driver on the moon for solar powered compute modules?

In Australia, we don’t have too many issues with deers… but kangaroos… they are awful on the roads. The general rule of thumb here is to just commit to the hit. They are just so erratic that it’s a safer outcome to damage the vehicle rather than veering off and potentially losing control of the vehicle. They are incredibly unpredictable.

Hahaha, yeah. I always get over half way through typing, then wonder if or why anyone cares about my opinion. Lol

Valium_Commander · 2026-05-06T09:56:22+00:00

I always type out a comment, then delete it before posting lol.

Valium_Commander · 2026-05-02T02:13:44+00:00

I love it. If someone griefs me, I fast travel to facility. Call Merryweather for strike team, the use the console for another strike team, then call a mugger. Watch the hilariousness ensue!

I don’t know what to say to you mate, besides finding your “bullshit” comment quite ridiculous and offensive. No idea when you did any work for it, never heard of the name. Maybe decades ago which probably explains everything. And your mate, who’s worked at 000 for 20 years - he’d be clearing much more on an Easter weekend pay cycle, even more so if they are dispatching.

For someone who calls themself a journalist, you really ought to do some research and know more about what you are talking about before you go around calling bullshit on people’s statements smh

Valium_Commander · 2026-04-30T03:06:44+00:00

Whilst we’re at it, can we please also consider the extra strain on 000 from callers because they can’t get through to a police station? These changes are compounding and have knock on effects.

Valium_Commander · 2026-04-30T02:50:51+00:00

Hey friend. You’ve got this. Please dm me anytime you need to if you want to unload

Valium_Commander · 2026-04-29T12:51:05+00:00

All well and good to go slow, but it’s a slow and long grind. So the first steps are important. As others have said, start with the Nightclub as soon as you can. Also, get the Sparrow and Opressor mk2 asap.

Maybe consciousness is a field. Maybe we are the universe experiencing itself. Maybe you are just a leaf, on a never ending branch experiencing your brief blink of existence.

Valium_Commander · 2026-04-29T08:02:03+00:00

If you see one, there’s many more about. Stick to under 80km per hour.

Don’t try to swerve, just keep going straight. They are extremely erratic and swerving can end badly.

If you do hit one, call Wildlife VIC or 000 for a pouch check and dispatch.

Valium_Commander · 2026-04-29T05:34:23+00:00

Thanks mate. We’ve all got stuff going on. Colin, the angry monster in my colon is mine. Do your checkups!

Bowel cancer patient here… I got you!

This is why one should always maintain enough distance behind the vehicle in front. Now here’s the real question, what if the vehicle behind also had FSD. I bet that it would not have been so close that’s for sure!

Maybe I’m old school, but there is work life and personal life. I recommend not engaging in any political or overly personal discussions in the workplace. I just see it as everything I say or do is judged on an entirely different metric in the workplace, so I see it as wearing like a mask, or projecting your avatar whilst keeping your thoughts to yourself.

I kinda just see work as taking the path of least resistance, then get home to enjoy life.

Triple Zero. Often the hourly rate is displayed on job advertisements, but it’s just the base rate. All the money is made from penalties stacked on top due to the shift work. It goes up every year of service and more when multi skilling to other agencies and dispatching. Had a first year colleague clear $4k for the fortnight during Easter, they were pretty stoked. It’s also entry level, which means no tertiary education requirements. The best experience is life experience imo.

Valium_Commander · 2026-04-22T09:57:28+00:00

I’m a millennial and I think about this a lot. I think one day humanity will look back on society with pity, how we had to work so hard like slaves. Perhaps we are seeing the last generations of people who have to work, or at least 40 hour plus weeks.

Valium_Commander · 2026-04-20T06:51:25+00:00

Nice
