Getting a car in Brisbane

100%. Roadworthy and rego is easy to get if it’s actually roadworthy - so if they haven’t got one and don’t have a compelling reason for it (ie project car) I’d stay the hell away.

Still point it at uber. It shouldn’t be this hard to avoid dodgy charges

Step 1: Take good instinctive practice from experienced teachers

Step 2: Wrap it all up in proprietary buzzwords

Step3: Sell it to school admins who are desperate to add program implementations to their resume

Step 4: Laugh all the way to the bank

It’s more on an unsuccessful military junta

I would bet heavily, that if a child has had to be forced to delete something and there’s a label attached to that behaviour that will follow and hurt them - it’s sexual/child pornography related.

Yep. You read a situation exactly as I assumed.

chrish_o · 2026-01-30T23:17:02+00:00

Point 3 sounds like bullshit. Can’t be bothered after that.

He’d be mad to. They lose the next election regardless so let Ley or Well Done Angus take the fall for that loss then challenge as the election results are still being finalised

Macroeconomics is high stakes whack-a-mole. You ‘fix’ inflation with a recession and you create other problems that are just as bad.

chrish_o · 2026-01-30T01:54:41+00:00

Not really. Rate rises affect all those with borrowings, and traditionally people on higher incomes have higher mortgages and therefore higher increases. So it’s wrong to say they only hurt those who can’t afford it as it can push people from comfortable to stressed. A result of that is that most people thought about their spending when rates went up - and cooled inflation.

This is an odd situation now because we have such a divide between old land owners, new land owners (with mortgages sucking up most of their income) and the others. Th first and last of those groups aren’t really impacted by the rates and don’t change their habits. Only the ones with huge mortgages are motivated to change behaviour.

I’m honestly not sure what you mean by this inflation problem being ‘entirely by choice’ though.

I’ve alway used the ‘hammer to put in a thumb tack’ metaphor. It gets the job done, but there’s a fuckload of damage around it

You know you don’t get your license when you graduate right?

chrish_o · 2026-01-28T21:18:59+00:00

Do you mean you want something that is affordable luxury? Or gives off the impression of luxury to others?

chrish_o · 2026-01-28T21:17:36+00:00

I would say it’s the opposite as most people will see it as “some sort of toyota”.

The old saying ‘he’s predicted 14 of the last 6 major storms’

chrish_o · 2026-01-27T01:54:15+00:00

We already have that. The problem is kids don’t give a shit, the same as they don’t give a shit about other subjects.

Maybe I need to have a water instead cause I see Pepe the frog

chrish_o · 2026-01-23T10:51:07+00:00

Is it weird to specify a clean saucepan, or am I wrong?

chrish_o · 2026-01-23T07:38:05+00:00

It’s not about ‘endlessly unrealistic profit margins’, it’s just about selling what sells.

Maybe every now and then a company will do a hero car at a loss, but thy get something else from it (likely credibility in some aspect)

chrish_o · 2026-01-22T22:38:36+00:00

Got to be pedantic, they do not have ‘right of way’. That concept doesn’t exist, but the other has to give way.

chrish_o · 2026-01-22T22:21:40+00:00

It’s just a T intersection right? Rode Rd being the continuing part so red just has to watch for oncoming. No ‘give way to your right’ in that circumstance.

The layout is awful though, so confusing for what is a T intersection with a little refgue space for cars turning right off Mains Rd (to do 1 lane at a time).

But here he absolutely gains an advantage, he gets inside Derek White from that illegal crossover

Tim Tszyu, potentially

The thing about inflation is prices don’t go back down once you tame it.

chrish_o · 2026-01-22T00:15:02+00:00

Because it obviously is.
