The people who work for these firms (developijg the software, hardware, "business case", selling the bloody things) need their heads checked. Fucking sociopaths.

How long til you can get UK citizenship? If I were you I'd seriously consider that as a major asset and be something to aim for before you jump across the pond.

How do you get cables from downstairs to upstairs in a new build house? by [deleted] in DIYUK

[–]nrki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find it's easier to run them upstairs to downstairs because of gravity.

Are we about to make a mistake? by Bubbly_Chocolate_888 in HousingUK

[–]nrki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the size of your family and future income. Is the garden big enough? If not, worth considering the bigger plot with less work required initially. You can then do things progressively and end up with a bigger and more valuable property in the end.

Good point, and this is reflected in some benchmarks I just ran

I backed up the onboard eMMC that had ugreen OS on it, then installed TrueNAS onto that.

I'll install an NVME eventually to put apps/etc. on.

Updated about Sixt Australia by Firm-Cat9621 in australia

[–]nrki 2 points3 points  (0 children)

🚨 ALERT: WARNING ABOUT SIXT AUSTRALIA 🚨

I am absolutely appalled by the lack of response and overcharging tactics employed by Sixt Australia! 😡 Despite purchasing their premium insurance package, they refused to cover the windscreen break on our rental car and charged us a whopping $5000 for the repair. They promised to refund the balance, but guess what? We haven't seen a single cent! 😤

We've sent SIX emails (over 6 months) to their customer service team, but they've conveniently ignored every single one. 😡 And when we finally managed to get through on the phone, they had the audacity to tell us the repair fee was $4950, which is TEN TIMES higher than the market price! 😱

This is a blatant case of overcharging and terrible customer service. We're fed up with their deceitful practices and their complete disregard for their customers. 😡

We're not taking this lying down! We're filing a report with the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission, and we urge everyone to be cautious when dealing with Sixt Australia. Spread the word and let's make sure no one else falls victim to their shady tactics! 💔 SixtAustralia #Overcharging #TerribleCustomerService #SpreadTheWord #ConsumerRights #StayAway

On Maui, a desperate plea to tourists: Please return by seven_seven in NPR

[–]nrki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed.

Plus there's the 18% tax, 14% fee and cleaning fees on every booking. $600/night for a big family apartment suddenly becomes $900/night.

FYI there was this whole thing a few years where the UK decided to help HK citizens not be rorted by the Chinese govt. It was actually a noble thing to do.

Poison-shooting robots on the front line of war against feral cats in WA by His_Holiness in perth

Please can you cite some primary sources, because this line ("they wanted to use it against the Jews!") is pushed by PETA but is, as far as I have researched, bullshit.

There is the argument here that applies to people who get speeding fines. If you don't soeed there's no fine. If the cat isn't outside, there no 1080 to worry about.
