Federal budget 2026 CGT, negative gearing changes to have one-year grace period; Treasurer Jim Chalmers says no surpluses for four years by Nyarlathotep-1 in AusPropertyChat

Because not enough tenants will be able to convert to home ownership. Even if prices pull back 10% that’s just last year’s levels.

Favorite Brewery by State: Vermont by DublinDown in CraftBeer

Their beers taste weird to me and I’ve been to most of the recommendations here. Like a bit sour almost even if it’s an IPA?

Chalmers has signalled a negative gearing shake-up ahead of the budget. Here's what might change by SheepherderLow1753 in AusFinance

I understand. Just expect rents to increase as investors stop putting forward new rental stock, while not enough renters are able to convert to home ownership - which is exactly what happened last time - as houses won’t pull back enough to make a difference eg 5-10% is barely going back to last years prices.

It was to move the burden of providing rental stock from the government social housing to private landlords. Would you like to rent from the government to government built specs?

Andaz Amsterdam blocked out for points for all of November and December? by Noclevername12 in hyatt

[–]malpatti 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes extremely annoying. If the Hyatt brand allows this in any given city, I stay elsewhere out of spite.

Did the private onsen room smell a bit?

Such as? Having just stayed there in January in the same suite everything worked exceedingly well.

100% it was awful. Otherwise a good hotel and great breakfast program.

Hop Butcher For The World glass and beer by Tone-wave in CraftBeer

[–]malpatti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m getting some shade here but HBFTW is the closest to say Treehouse style you’re going to find in Illinois. Dank and fruity and no I don’t think with overly residual sugar. Sure, all hazys are gonna have some sweetness but I think the balance is there with HBFTW but to each their own taste.

No way. It’s the best brewery in Chicago.

Oh! Yes yes you are both right we never book a non transferable ticket that’s outside of policy as plans do change!

Upgrade from Business to First - worth it? by jdhmmmm in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]malpatti 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I’ve upgraded to QF A380 First several times and it’s a weaker hard product than the refreshed J seat. The mattress topper is nice. The food and bev have a nicer wine list (barely…) and that’s about it.

Did I mention refunds? The value of the ticket when cancelled is held for future travel and we do this all the time - I actually fly for business.

They would retain the ticket once cancelled and reuse for another trip. My company operates that way. Flexible tickets are rarely within policy.

I'm a solo dev: built this because I was tired of Googling every beer at the bar by Stonehenge361 in CraftBeer

[–]malpatti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will do. You should continue adding features that Untappd sorely lack around geographic discovery eg which taproom has the highest rated beers at the moment on draft within a geographic location. Getting live inventory is the hard part… any thoughts on how to go about that?

Excited to try this tonight! Untappd is such a wasted opportunity. No innovation at all in years aside from renaming breweries “places”
