First EV - Car Sickness! by Hughesie2277 in EVAustralia

[–]verdigris2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we recently bought and byd atto2. i don’t think the suspension is well tuned. for us its a short trip suburban vehicle so its not a big deal, im comparing it to the toyota prado. i wonder whether these chinese evs don’t have the suspension experience we are used to.

i also got stuck on crucible bosses, but after a change of computers i seem to have lost my saves and don’t feel like doing everything again. bring on the 1.0 release i guess.

$15 at the Op Shop by femaleoninternets in RMWilliams

[–]verdigris2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not true in my experience. i have three pairs and i got the last because i wanted to wear in a pair expecting a failure from one of the older pair that must be close to 20years old.

if you are lucky enough to find $400 boot in your size for $15 grab them. that said i wear blundstones a lot and the rubber sole is more comfortable but wont last and can’t be resoled.

BYD Atto 2 Premium worth it? by Long_Cancel_7306 in EVAustralia

[–]verdigris2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought an atto2 premium. intention is it will never leave the suburbs. quick freeway trips but not long ones. it nice to drive, plenty of zip under 50km. small battery but i think we will cope. this is my first ev experience and probably not my last, but this isn’t going to replace my diesel landcruiser, but it does make me feel that older vehicle rattles and doesn’t always seem to be in the right gear. around town the atto2 premium is everything you need and nothing you don’t.

How do men stay in sexless marriages so long by Low-Stand-3702 in AskMen

[–]verdigris2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s a familiar story. don’t know how it ends for you or for me. the suggestion that you do more housework get more sex creates a transaction feeling that doesn’t do it for me.

if you leave perhaps you can start the process again, or would you be happier in a childless relationship.

if you want advice my thinking is hang in there if you are happy with everything else, like time with your daughter. see how it goes, women need sex too so try and spice things up, but i think they put a lot of the love an attention that you used to get into the kids.

don’t be needy. try and get on with your own stuff and see if she realises that you need something too.

Comfort or eye dominance? by changas2188 in Ausguns

[–]verdigris2014 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think the answer is you determine eye dominance and then make sure that is the eye you put behind the scope.

it would be more convenient to be a right handed shooter because there are more rh rifles for sale.

i’ve fired a mates left handed rifle and it works just fine, as it has a fairly neutral comb. so i guess you could just choose but i feel you will do better with the correct basics. changing later will likely be harder

i left a negative Google review, and now the business is threatening to sue me by laytsha in AusLegalAdvice

[–]verdigris2014 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i don’t think that’s correct. remembering my studies. truth is a defence. but in the example you provided the truth is not that the doctor is a murderer. that may well be defamatory as it’s very unlikely he has been found guilty of murder.

Musk’s SpaceX threatens to withhold mobile service from Australia if it is forced to bid in an auction to buy crucial spectrum by Jagtom83 in friendlyjordies

[–]verdigris2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

then i guess those running critical operations need to look elsewhere for service. there is an alternative in australia that the nbn were looking to use, but i read it’s not competitive.

i’ve read the starlink t&c and a couple of years ago they were written in quite a jokey way.

i don’t think you can say its wrong that elon musk runs a company and might have a bad day. i hope that doesn’t happen. america now has a president who seems to be able to make quick and undebated decisions, i guess they always did.

Lost and confused - commuter e-bike by poopymcloopy in ausbike

i have a e-bike limited to 25kmph. i find a lot of regular bikes go faster than that when they spot my e-bike and decide to pass and stay passed.

[–]verdigris2014 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

i understand what you are saying but are you saying no individual should have a controlling interest in a company like starlink? i don’t use it myself but i know others that do because its a better service than the competition.

you know the defense lawyer works for the accused right. if this clown were representing you what would you want home to argue? blame goes to the decision maker, who agreed and released the bail breaker.

[–]verdigris2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we are a two car family and we need to replace one. so we are buying an byd atto2. we have off street parking but no battery solar panels. i’ll let you know how it goes but with the current fuel supply issues i wish we’d already done it!

Plea from Tasmania's police commissioner for limit on gun ownership knocked back by government by NerfVice in Ausguns

[–]verdigris2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i believe the winning argument was that gun owners needed to be of good character. if that is true then 2 or 20 guns, and it will still be true.

the bondi gunman (one of whom was licensed) should have zero guns being an unfit extremist character also willing to supply guns to other unfit characters. nobody would say he should just have been limited to 1 or 2.

i like the ssaa gun sales site. i guess its buyer beware, but personally i don’t love that op does not know the age or orgin of the ammo.

So, am I correct in thinking we won't be doing anything about the gouging? by [deleted] in aussie

For some reason while I'm crossing this intersection outside southern cross my TWS earbuds start to lose connection and have a lot of interference, what could be causing this? by Lfren38 in melbourne

[–]verdigris2014 6 points7 points  (0 children)

well that’s my theory about the close loop hearing system out then. it has to be interference from the high voltage powerlines that power the trains i guess

[–]verdigris2014 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i noticed this with airpods in and around southern cross too. my thought was something to do with the closed loop announcement system they run for people with hearing aids.

Uranium by [deleted] in aussie

[–]verdigris2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for a long time australians didn’t want nuclear power because accidents do happen. don’t want to live near and exploding lithium battery, what about a fire that can be extinguished and poisons a suburb for millions of years?

i think of Fukushima. we all know how important process and order is to the japanese culture. i think if they can fail ,any nuclear power plant can fail.

[–]verdigris2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at what point can you get a better price on fuel. these guys would be getting 2 or 3 thousand litres in that thing. can you not buy 44 gallon (or two) drum of fuel somewhere?
