And traffic lights, among all the other times you have to stop the car for more than a few seconds. I guess that idle burn number's from…
Is this really something that's difficult to adapt to? You lift off brakes, the engine starts back up, then you apply some gas. The timing…
ozbargainsam commented on AI (ChatGPT and Many Others) Has Ruined My Chances of Passing Technical Interviews as Software Engineers
It's pretty hard to get rid of a bad hire, so the interview process tends to minimise the possibility of one at the cost of potentially…

We need to 'ship of Theseus' our bodies.
ozbargainsam commented on Not Happy with CBA Awards Visa Anymore (44 Instead of 55 Days Interest Free Period). Help Me Find a New Bank
They can't really go much lower than 44 days anyway, otherwise there's kit a reasonable about of time to pay it off. Anyway, I'll keep…

It's the 'wave of death'. Never rely on someone else's judgement to decide what your next move is.

ozbargainsam commented on What to Do about a Smelly Person at Work?
I have anosmia. If anyone tells me I stink, I just reply "I can't smell".

Ah. My at least once-yearly "You can say no to add-on insurance" email.
I'm guessing something dropped the decimal point - so it's "1.1m" and "1.8m" wide respectively.
Your earlier post has nothing of substance that tells an EV owner why they shouldn't consider EV-specific tyres, so it reeks of ignorance.…
I suppose just spending a few minutes reading about why EV tyres exist and what their differences over 'normal ICE' tyres is just too hard…
My bad. I misread when you said 'HP micro PC' I read it as microserver. I'm too old/not bothered to go through the other routes for a NAS.…

Apparently liquids that are frozen at the time will be allowed through. So, get a pretty cold freezer and a really good cooler.

You need to ask your payroll/HR as to which leasing company they will work with. In general, it's locked to the one your employer has…

Invite only. There's a sign up fee of several thousand plus I think a $4500/year fee. The benefits aren't even that good apparently, just a…
