IKR. I feel like chemistry in school should teach the Maillard reaction as a matter of course.

I'm not one to tell people how to spend their money, but these pots are gimmicky and not particularly useful. Having one non stick…

Ah fair enough. I was basing it on the Amazon listing. Did seem very high, but thought it might have been targeted at car campers

I'm sure this will be great for some people, but 800g+ is not lightweight lol

Yep, they have an 'entity' that is a drop down box that sends commands. i.e. "set bottom limit". You click that at the bottom, it saves…

It was all easy through Amazon, but the failure was a secondary annoyance to how incredibly loud and clunky they are.

I've been buying these: https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B09YM7BF8V?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 I'm loathe to 'recommend' them…

Works fine with my Zigbee2Mqtt integration on HA. But as I said below, I really do not recommend these. Mechanically they're clunky and…

I strongly recommend against these if the integrated blind motors are remotely an option for you. I have four of them. One of them works…

Definitely. The Aus govt has a lot of power over green bean prices.

It's not only complete bs. The original source of the bs was literally a hoax:…

Good call. FWIW I also did a lot of maths and came to a very similar finding.

You're wasting your time trying to reason with JV. Once he thinks he's right facts don't matter.

Yeah OK. I'm always surprised by what they would deliver to me (My fave being multiple crates of bundaberg ginger beer, which must be…

Interesting. I've had some products shut off, but the vast majority of them are still going through. I'm in central Vic. Whereabouts…

Feel free to keep trying to make the facts fit your internal narrative. But as you can see from the link above the relationship between…

It's been scientifically shown that having the flu shot will reduce the severity of an infection for a large number of people. I…

*Citation needed* There are excess deaths, but most analysis suggests that this is till due to COVID-19. For example:…

I can't complain about my two Kelvinator units from a performance perspective, but the software and support is utter garbage. Maddeningly…

Official stats are impossible to obtain. Tesla designed FSD to turn off as soon as a "dangerous situation is detected". Like the FSD…

By your logic, the Grattan Institute themselves are 'repeated REIA talking points' when they say: "Over the longer term, lower after-tax…

But... I'm not repeating their talking points. Honestly, read what I wrote. I have said that: "It actually does make logical sense that…

Sure. But you made an assumption that I was regurgitating their view without thinking. I was actually just making an argument from first…

Sigh... It's speculation just like yours, not everything is a conspiracy. I assure you I do not work for the REIV, nor do I think they make…

I didn't say no impact. That's total verballing. I said 'barely registers'. The Grattan Institute Report says it would offset about 7-8…

It actually does make logical sense that removing negative gearing would have little to no ongoing impact, because any direct impact may be…

It's not 2% p.a. though. The report would say that if it was. Because, as you say, that would be a huge result. It's 2% once off as a…

2%. They say 2% for all three of those policies being removed. Are you saying that's a big impact on pricing?

Lol. No I didn't misquote. I have just read more than one thing on this. Other modelling suggests negative gearing removal will have a less…

With all due respect, stop trying to look at headline figures and build a narrative out of them alone. Read the analysis of people who…
