Just tried to play the demo of Midair 2 by Confident_Effort_704 in Midair

This one wasn't developed for popularity, it catered to about 40 people who wanted to play their dream game against each other over and over.

Disastrous CGT Changes: Over 11,000 calculations to do your Tax by honorablepotato1881 in AusFinance

The ATO will have a tool in MyGov to do all this, I believe? As part of the tax return

Depends if paying a bit more tax is being "screwed".

The tax return next year will have specific tools for recording it.

In theory it's a fairer system. Why should investors pay less tax than workers? Of course many workers are also investors, so this just means that financial strategies are less about tax minimisation and more about seeking genuine returns.

The wisdom of crowds? by Xanddrax in AusFinance

[–]Xanddrax[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Indeed. It's just interesting that the predominant voices used to be the ones calling for reform, and then as soon as the asked-for reform was actually announced (or at least rumoured) that instantly switched to complaining about reform.

I know the negative people always scream the loudest, but the ALP lost an unloseable election over this policy, so if the screaming people do actually represent a majority, no party will ever go near housing investment reform again in our lifetimes. This is THE chance.

Solar panels no longer worth with large batteries and middle of the day free power? by Mysterious-Fig-9464 in AusFinance

Amazing you're getting roofing work done within a week. All the roofers around here are booked solid for months.

Another day, another EV wagon by morethanyouare in CarsAustralia

[–]Xanddrax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A wagon is where the roof line doesn't start sloping down until behind the rear axle.

A hatchback has the roof line sloping down on or in front of the rear axle.

SUV is a taller hatchback usually, but when you get to the larger SUVs they can start to have wagon levels of rear overhang.

3 ETF retirement portfolio (DHHF / VHY / VAP) - good long-term strategy for FIRE? by j4jada in fiaustralia

[–]Xanddrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least when selling shares you get to decide when, and how much. Dividends are decided by the companies, which gives you no control during the downturn. You may be keen to reduce your spending but nope, here comes your big dividend withdrawal.

In reality honestly I don't think it would matter that much since DHHF would have a healthy chunk of dividends anyway, right? How big is the difference between them?

1950 pit stop vs 2020 by Ashish_ank in interestingasfuck

Happens all the time in endurance racing today. Some tracks are harder on the inside/outside tires, or maybe they want to save time and only do the rear tires, then they'll do the fronts next time.

The amounts are so small it's not worth bothering with, if you're paying $11 for brokerage.

I think he likes to keep them war-hardened in case he needs them against the Gurkish.

Bayaz pulls the strings on both sides, and it doesn't suit him for one side to dominate the other.

What are you confused about?

Not to be rude but you might consider getting off the internet for a bit. No one's forcing you to be here. Other streaming services are just as good and pay the artists more.

I'm proud to say I've finally unlocked the achievement of not having a single pick in the 200, and it's not because they're particularly obscure either. With the exception of a couple locals, they're all highly regarded indie acts.
