I very much concur with this sentiment. If I know something is cheaper elsewhere I buy there, at most I will sometimes ask a business what…

I have rarely found HN were the cheapest, sometimes equal in price, usually more expensive. Many of us despise Gerry Harvey for his active…

Many may have more respect, most dont as evidenced by the plummetting tourist numbers to it.

Used many over the years as I churn credit cards. despite how much I dislike them CBA is still the best and ANZ and NAB by far the worst.

Geoffrey is speaking facts either, he is making predictions. AI has massive benefits across all of society, even now while it is still in…

and just like all those that predicted previous revolutions would NOT create jobs I also think Geoffrey is likely wrong here, the problem…

I give up, arguing with luddite trolls is pointless. I am very up to date on his current concerns, some of them are well founded, others…

LOL, you are the one becoming a slave. You think working longer and harder hours is better. You also think handing in subpar work is…

What absolute twaddle. Businesses hire people to do tasks as efficiently and to as high a standard as possible with the tools available.…

AI is just another tool, you're free not to use it, but you should not whine that others used the tools available to them to improve their…

use whatever you want. enjoy your "enhanced IE". I guess as long as you are happy you don't need something better.

quite easily, it is faster, uses less memory, has improved tab controls, improved privacy and security while having support for addins…

you are nick picking, it was a google product which they open sourced. many browsers now base their source code off it including Brave…

yes they both copy and rely on chromium open source.

just like chrome integrates all the google garbage and tracking. Neither are perfect, if you care about security and privacy you would not…

Edge is Chrome with just security enhancements on it, it has no relationship to ie but shares codebase with Chrome.

If it is not your tax invoice and they have not authorised you to claim that GST on their behalf you are effectively commiting tax fraud…

Effectively what you are doing is charging the customer in the example of a $10,000 item is a $1000 fee for the service. I would think you…

Edge is basically an improved version of Chrome, if you think Edge is shit then so is Chrome.

If whats been put into the washing machine is making its way into the bearings of the Drum then the machine is fundamentally flawed.

absolutely, however until confronted you won't know whether they are scared kids or the ones that will stick a knife in your guts before…

Yup. Share awards are treated as income now. No capital gains event if you sell within 30 days. The problem used to be with options (not…

yep used to live in Sydney and currently live in Canberra (funnily enough currently in an old 1970's brick-veneer house we are renting…

nowdays even a young kid, when involved in this sort of scam, is just as likely to stick a knife in you, after all the consequences for…

I know people that have been prosecuted and back in the early 2000's I got a decent fine as well for not lodging (it was intentional and…

Sydney is hardly a cold climate even in winter you can easily get by with minimal heating.

If someone is dumb enough to buy it then I tip my hat (non 5G protecting variant) to the seller. Sucker born every minute, but it takes…

Can be a bit of a mixed bag. can hit high 20's/low 30's but humid so yeah to me it is absolutely unbearable if you get some of the hot…

pretty much. The gall of them to think they could get away with it was mind blowing. $200 for dinner, $1200 for the wine. unsuprisingly it…

IT. We had some international SMEs visiting, they tried to expense multiple bottles of grange to wash down their steak dinners.
