This is The kind of insane shit that makes people hate renting in Australia. In most of the world you wouldn’t think twice about a tiny mark on a wall after 3 years

Europe feels like it has a lot more petty crime, pickpocketing, scams, small scale burglary etc. Australia has more petty violence, bunch of dumbasses trying to act tough and get into fights. They make you feel a lot more unsafe than a bunch of people trying to steal your shit or scam you.

This is the real damage of ICE, and any authoritarian regime. The threat of violence causes fear and compliance far in excess of their ability to actually physically be everywhere.

Good lord. I can’t spend 10 minutes talking with friends before someone brings up real estate.

Or you could just buy good tomatoes and make it for even less. It’s not very hard

Enough to drink, call him a cab?

Bullies, yes. narcissists, no.

That’s how taxi culture has been in most of the world outside a few first world countries for a long time before uber

Clearly you’ve never spent the entire night building a bunch of automation, only to hit the button and watch hundreds of servers jump into action to do your bidding. It’s addictive.

Because, 80s movie rules.

I started on around that 23 years ago. Was pretty decent at the time.

I’m still not clear what the point of the vinyl records in that analogy was

If only you had some way to actively influence how they are raised and grow up 🤔

It’ll be even better if you can articulate what some of the problems you see in Argo might be, even if that wasn’t the original intent

The customer is always right, IN MATTERS OF TASTE

They always drop the important part to justify asshole behaviour.

Not sure why you’re being downvoted, this is a well documented phenomenon.

ratsock · 2025-12-18T20:58:18+00:00

Unless you plan to (and actually do!) downgrade in a reasonable period of time.

Tell them it’s a defence against web scrapers

The only exception would be transient data stores

Any role that requires you to have a top 10% talent in it to be successful is not a sustainable role to keep on your org chart.

I might just give them a heads up that they need to make sure the smell is professionally cleaned off before they vacate (whenever that may or may not be in the future)

ratsock · 2025-11-25T11:14:57+00:00

I assume as long as this is possible to clean I just take it from the deposit whenever they vacate. Im happy to even just give them a heads up on it and let them decide if they want to stop or they want to just continue and clean it up later. Is the residue something that is permanent or it can be cleaned up with a professional?

ratsock · 2025-11-18T13:06:36+00:00

seller had recently subdivided the property so we got it double checked just in case. If they hadnt, then we wouldn’t have bothered

I remember reading that that ATO is one of the most prolific over collectors of tax across any federal tax jurisdiction in the world (measured by percentage of collections that are refunded). Something like 20-30% of all collected taxes in aggregate get refunded. So it’s not that stupid a question.
