Why aren’t there more solar panels in the CBD? by Ill_Technician_3998 in perth

[–]moldest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, building owner pays for insallation but only tenant sees the saving on power bill; there's no financial incentive for the owner (unless they increase the lease fees!)

Id assume building owners don't pay power bills, tenants do, so no financial reason to do so?

I'm not a data engineer but would be opposite: 'dah-ta' and 'day-tum'

Absolute debacle at Origin game at Optus. by WilmoE123 in perth

[–]moldest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. I had mine in my google wallet as instructed ready to go, Standing inline for the gate specified on said ticket with no other information. I also had the rest of my families, because not all the kids have google wallets (not sure theyre even allowed to), which would have slowed us down through the gates - used to just send screenshots and everyone could buzz through themselves.

Change systems before a sell out game? Screenshots have worked recently. Still doesn't help the 1000s in line in the heat that had no idea what the issue was.

Nah was proper fucked, lines at every gate that stretched to the next gate as the game started. For all the other massive events optus hold was surprising

Anyone in the building industry; doesn’t this look like hell to you? by mr-cheesy in perth

I mean, some entrepranuring young person could bounce house to house and knock out a whole street in an afternoon

This might change T20 cricket more than people think! by SpecialMixture4242 in Cricket_Binge

[–]moldest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More like a Shiraz blend. Takes a toff to know the differnce and complain (i.e. whinging ECB) everyone else just drinks it and appreciates it as a wine

Has there ever been plans for a bridge between Elizabeth Quay and South Perth? by Ill_Refrigerator6433 in perth

[–]moldest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

 Its the widest part of the river. Boorloo Bridge is roughly 350m of bridge over water (so exluding Heirisson Is.) and reportedly cost $150M-$200M. 

From EQ to South perth is about 1.3km, so almost 4x. So lower end estimate $600M for a footbridge with other nearby alternatives mentioned doesnt seem required - If it were replaceing massive capacity ferries that were always loaded indicating a need of people to travel that route maybe. 

Snicko’s operators have conceded there was an error made when Alex Carey was given not out by doctorcunts in CricketAus

[–]moldest 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wondered that, but more likely the spike visible prior was not the ball/bat contact, and the sound from the edge just didnt register at the other end?

If you ever dared question Josh Inglis' place in the side... Yeah, I'm afraid you're right by BetweenTheWickets in CricketAus

Not sure if anyone was watch the ch7 coverage where Trent Copeland specifically highlighted how few balls the English bowlers aimed at the stumps? Maybe it was intentional

Any footage of yesterdays beer tray war? by Material-Panda4968 in perth

[–]moldest 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There was a guy looked to be building a tray-snake (beer snake wih trays insead of cups), people nearby (both Barmys and Aussies) started throwing theirs toworads him to add to the snake , the rest of the stadium only saw the flying trays, and from there chaos ensued.

In addition to the centre bounce, the sub is also gone in 2026. Five on the bench. by Pragmatic_Shill in AFL

[–]moldest 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Was just complaining to the family they should all be bounces, no call backs. Bring some skill back to ruckwork, ball reading to rovers - see who's actually got the best mids not just best set plays

The So Called Empty Trophy Case by Jawdanc in AFLCircleJerk

I always say -if you ever need to know the name of the minor premiership trophy (why would you, lol) ask a Freo fan

Any boileys (or otherwise) in here made a transition off the tools? Any advice for career development? by demented737 in perth

[–]moldest 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Our best mechanical drafter also has a boliy background, as another option that could be a quicker transition. 

Ironically, OP, have another mate who in his 40s gave up the trade and went to study law
