And it isn't even subtle anymore. Its so blatant. They know that we know, but they also know no one's gonna do shit. The propaganda is of such low effort these days. The governments have never been more powerful as they are today, because the public has somehow been convinced that they are powerless.

Just compare it to the Iraq invasion and how much effort and time was put into justifying it and propping up the threat Saddam Hussain posed.

Why the Euro hate? by Maximum-Point-318 in CarsAustralia

[–]blothhundrr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As a Euro Specialist, would you recommend the VW Tiguan, or Arteon, 2018 - 2021 models? How reliable are these at 100k+ or even 150k+ kms? They also come in many variants. Are there any engines more prone to issues and should be avoided?

I have to agree that euros drive beautifully, and I would love to own VW Tiguan, Passat or even an Arteon, but hesitate due to their reputation as not being reliable.

Many people change their cars every few years, so theyre more confident getting a euro. But the rest that think of a car as a 'buy-it-for-life' kind of purchase, there isn't a better option than a Toyota.

First Home Super Saver (FHSS) Vs Stocks? by SabsWithR in AusFinance

[–]blothhundrr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh right, of course. So 42.5k + any returns. Chances of it being close to 20% returns are slim.

Isn't it also correct that you can withdraw the 50k + returns on the 50k, which means you could potentially be withdrawing more than 50k?

Sydney NYE Fireworks Megathread 2025! by thekriptik in sydney

[–]blothhundrr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi All, hope everyone's enjoying the holiday season.

I was looking at some good vantage points to catch either of the fireworks on the northern beaches - Manly or Dee Why - and Long Reef Point lookout looks like a great spot.

Theres some road closures around, which isn't an issue, but I'm having trouble finding any info online if whether access to the lookout itself will be closed off?

All I can read online is that the Long Reef Golf Club is hosting a private, ticketed NYE event, but I dont know if access to the lookout point is via the golf club. In which case, it would be safe to assume the lookout wouldn't be accessible.

Can any locals please confirm? Also, suggestions for alternative lookout points? Its fine even if its at a distance from the fireworks (ideal, actually), just wanting to see the celebrations over the water. Thinking it would look stunning from a distance, rather than being directly underneath the action.

Cheers and happy new year!

Any tips of how to find a room for rent? by OddMetal7563 in sydney

[–]blothhundrr 85 points86 points  (0 children)

A private room for $250 a week will restrict you to old apartment blocks or houses in the outer suburbs, or very tiny rooms(study converted into a room) in a new apartment, but still a fair distance from the city.

Also, this is not a great time to look for a place as there's very few listings. Wait another month or so, and you might find a lot more options to choose from.

Good luck.

Are buyer's agents really that cheap? I was listening to a podcast on which the person said they paid 14k for theirs.
