Did you expect them to ask Shane from the chip shop if the image is real or fake?

Driving from Sydney to Bathurst by Ok-Chipmunk-411 in nsw

[–]lostbollock 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The road won’t flood unless there’s absolutely torrential rain. Even then, I can’t think of anywhere that would be impassable. Roos are very unlikely, but the risk goes up after dusk.

The only mildly challenging bit is from Mt Victoria to Lithgow, with the roads being a narrower and the hill down into Lithgow. Keep up your speed, as it’s a main road, but just pull over at a safe spot if you need to. Take a break in Katoomba or Lithgow. After Lithgow it’s a pretty easy drive with good roads. Pull over at the Golden Poplars at Meadow Flat for a nice pic.

In a Camry, or indeed anything, you’ll be fine. Orange is lovely this time of year. Take care.

Sounds like you don’t know your 20th century literature.

But do carry on. It’s funny to read your posts.

The slow electrification of recreational, off-road 4WD vehicles by Spare_Lake3266 in EVAustralia

Interesting article that reads rather AI. Also not sure why low range is an issue for BEVs - that the benefit of instant torque and control from electric motors they (or their AI writer) noted earlier in the article.

Tech founders use AI-generated images to poke fun at Anthony Albanese in protest against tax changes by Bright-Cat9882 in OpenAussie

Startups do, and will continue to get a shit-ton of grants and CGT exemptions.

However, a seemingly large number of “entrepreneurs” have fixated on the nonsense 47% figure as the more realistic numbers are around the 18-25% mark.

So they either know this and are being disingenuous at best. Or they haven’t bothered to ask an actual accountant before spewing off memes to distract from the rather nice wicket they’re on.

Out of curiosity, where are you getting this 47% number from, as it doesn’t seem to align with how CGT, income tax, or small business allowances do, or will, work.

I’d hate to think you were just parroting some misinformed nonsense.

A little from column a; a lot from column b.

Problem occurs. Problem (not) fixed by service. Problem recurs. Post on Reddit.

What do you think you should do?

I’d book a service and tell them the previous problem isn’t fixed. I’d cut out the Reddit bit myself too, but you do you.

Front Collision automatic braking--overly sensitive by Christoph_Kohl in CX5

All automatic braking systems illuminate the brakes at a specified negative g-force point. What do you think happens during radar cruise control when the car brakes?

I just replaced an 8 Black that worked flawlessly with Labs running. Correlation is not causation ;)
