When you say outright you have, for example 450k for a 500k apartment? If that is the case then you just need to get a mortgage for the difference and be done with it. With that much of a deposit I didn’t think they would see it as much of a risk, but who knows. A mortgage will be much lower interest than a personal loan. Also have you factored in all of the extras… legals, stamp duty, etc etc.

I sense the weekend will be a symphony of lawn mowers

Mailata (Philly Eagle - ex Rabbit) has an interesting take on pads / no pads. https://youtu.be/osj1Nra-Z_0?t=752

now that I’m thinking about it, maybe it’s AI generated

Guess he wont be going to Vegas next year

Its gonna be a cash cow for Tesla eventually, they thought that one out well

Yah all good questions and good responses. Suspend is great for this handheld, but as @PlasticExistence@beehaw.org mentions linux isn’t great at suspend out of the box and having a very configurable embedded system like the steamdeck lumps it in this basket.

I got one of amazon.com.au in June. The price was pretty much the same as the direct conversion from USD, and it got delivered the next day. Obv a 3rd party seller but have been super happy with the purchase.

hows your balance, need some topup action?

I do like me a Wendy’s burger

I think a lot of the ‘customer owned’ banks are usually good, they can be regional based as well. IE for Newcastle area Greater Bank and Newcastle Permanent Buildng Society both have lots of branches and good customer support for local. I used to like StGeorge until Westpac took them over, went downhill after that

Thanks, at least with no contract and fees laws now it makes it easier to keep em honest. Guess I’ll find out in coming days / weeks.

Yeah I’m keeping an eye out for that, wondering if the company I switched to (Red Energy) is gonna jack their prices to make them above my previous (momentum). Suprisingly they havent sent out a welcome pack yet, usually it’s pretty quick to lock you in, so I’m wondering if they are in the midst of price jacking

Got a perfect round , much thanks to the refs on that last game :-) Time to start checking the run home for em all now, nothing but injuries or suspensions should get in the way now. I think we’ve had all the coach sackings for the year surely.

crikey, was such a close game as well. I tipped parra so I’m not as annoyed as Titans fans would be.

yeah I like weekly, post mortem and upcoming

Ya was funny, after Roosters crowed about 20k the Swans sent out an email about 62k. AFAIK AFL memberships are quite varied and different, giving a lot more options / affordability.

Agreed, especially since a stock EV is already fairly fast. Most manufacturers are releasing performance variants as well with extra grunt and better handling. Also the EV manufacturers are more aligned to automall / online selling (Tesla,polestar,Hyundai), missed opportunity there for them. With the fed gov removal of FBT on sub 90k EV’s fleet / novated lease companies are also prime for an automall.
