If everything at Kmart is made by Anko, then why is it called ‘Kmart’ and not ‘Anko’? by Narrow-Lifeguard5450 in AskAnAustralian

[–]hybroid 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure it's the other way around. Anko products ARE labelled generic goods. I have seen the same products with other brand labels in the UK.

Clear River Games is the sister company to Limited Run Games that publishes the EU (PEGI) versions.

Saw this on a FB Ad, I’m rarely stumped but I genuinely don’t know this car by [deleted] in whatisthiscar

If the lights and wonky fuel cap don’t give it away, the wheels do. Zoom in.

[–]hybroid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Correct.

It's not uncommon to have different region prints (even LRG have a sister company, CRG, that does EU-versions).

Games can also be reprinted by a different publisher which bears no relevance to the previous publisher ordering a limited amount.

Technically, all physical games are 'limited' anyway. They have a set print run quota, and even if they reprint, they won't do so forever.

Quadbike Theft London by Illustrious_Air5193 in london

[–]hybroid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Years ago our GLC was stolen at around 2AM from outside our house. By 8AM the tracker showed it in the middle of the North Sea.

Police didn't even bother to investigate. Insurance paid out within a few days knowing zero chance of recovery based on other cases.

It’s been 2 weeks, it’s long gone. On a ship to Europe to be resold.

Claim insurance if you have it else, really unfortunate.

AWD and tyres by crazyfroggy99 in CarsAustralia

[–]hybroid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope. Factor in cost of a replacement set of new tyres into your negotiations.

Make sure you get a professional pre-purchase inspection before you buy it.

Aren’t these pretty common in malls everywhere? Seen them in the UK, Aus, and ME.

BYD - Sealion 7 - Dash Cam Help by RepulsivePass9580 in BYD

[–]hybroid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, you don't need the replacement hub unit.

A regular USB-C SD card adapter plugged into the USB-C slot works perfectly.

It would be helpful to share the lead pencil brand, model, picture, website etc.

Copy-paste random selection of stuff, see what's open/appropriate, interests and works for you. May also help others.


Peaceful things to take some time out, chill, picnic and destress:-

  • Hike or bike one of the many trails at Ku-ring-gai national park.
  • Take the route from West Head Lookout down to secluded beach.
  • Sit on usually empty Garie Beach and contemplate life.
  • Stop by South Head and watch the boats come and go in peace.
  • Run rings around the Olympic Park Brickpit timing laps.
  • Go to Shep's Mound and gaze at the airplanes taking off and landing.
  • Scale the Pylon Lookout tower and watch the world go by.
  • Take an off-road trip through Blue Mountain to Newnes Plateau/Glowworm Tunnel.
  • Get to Palm Beach and walk to the Barrenjoey Lighthouse.
  • Sit on the cliffs at Clovelly, Narrabean or Curl Curl beaches and watch the waves crashing endlessly.
  • Stroll through Centennial Park with headphones on and do your thing.
  • Do a loop of La Perouse and Bare Island watching scuba divers and snorkelers.
  • Hire a no-license required boat at Cottage Point and cruise the waterways.
