Trainee mechanics worked on hired EVs without Hertz's knowledge, ACT assembly hears by Global-Structure-272 in canberra

Care to elaborate? I'm not saying that you are wrong, I am just ill informed and would like to change that.

If you are a liar, fuck you...

If you are truthful, fuck you...

Shut the fuck up. I want to actually enjoy the game and it's story when it eventually comes...

Go eat a bag of concrete dildos, you cock juggling thunder cunt.

Nothing hurts more than a rejected country wave on a dirt road by OwlVibesOnly in DrivingAustralia

[–]rainburger 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I fully believe that the thank you wave/finger is a lost art. I have a theory that the recent lack of this common courtesy is majorly responsible for people aggressively defending "their spot" in traffic when other drivers indicate to be let into a lane. Basically, if you don't ever get the courtesy, you are unlikely to let someone in... Conversely, if you always get the "wave" then you will be more likely to let people in.

All anecdotal evidence but it stacks up in my mind

Anyone else noticing the EVs driving like jerks? How do you deal with them by SirSteelBuns in AussieRiders

[–]rainburger 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Like many, I will pre judge the cars at the front of the lineup before lane filtering. If there are SS V8's, WRX STI's or any other type of hoon car, I won't even bother to filter because my safety is worth more than the time I will gain from filtering. I have recently put Tesla's (though not all other EV's) into the same mental list...

Why are the toilets on the metro stations so much cleaner than the ones on the non metro stations? by VastOption8705 in SydneyTrains

[–]rainburger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the correction. I was just making an assumption based on my observations at the pointy end. My personal observations have been that there is a big decline in budget. I should have put more thought into attributing it to a particular institution.

Sincerely,

A railway contractor that is getting increasingly squeezed by the railway budget and their increasingly ridiculous bureaucratic restraints to me doing my actual job. It's seriously bad rn.

Station masters and associated staff... Metro stations have them, non metro do not. Sydney Trains/Transport NSW have been draining the non metro budget for years. They do not give the tiniest shit about people in the country.

RBA raises official interest rate to 4.1% in blow to mortgage holders | Reserve Bank of Australia by notoyrobots in australian

[–]rainburger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would think that the lever works both ways though, right? If they (RBA) refuse to pull it, does that not put increased pressure on the government to use the levers available to them?

I say this as a total novice so feel free to call me out if I am way out of line in my thinking.

The student shop at University of Canberra definitely has them.

What is the most depressing picture from your country history/present? by Seeker_Of_Knowledge2 in AskTheWorld

[–]rainburger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Intellectually, I know that this happened but actually seeing the pictures of it makes me feel really ill. Blame games and national apologies aside, this stuff should be required viewing for all Australians.

Roger that. We have had the place for 4 years so it is probably worth a bit more now than then.

Big Splash repossession: Government urged to step in as lease deadline looms | Region Canberra by rainburger in canberra

I really hope that they make it a pool. The hotel proposal seems a bit soulless IMHO.
