If you're not going to an existing datacentre, you're going to want redundant fibre and let's not forget the generator for redundant power.…

How long should a publisher run the online parts of a game? I see this game is 10 or more years old. How long should game companies ensure…

Thanks for the perspective, this is a 10 year old game.

This is the funny thing - it seems there is almost an unlimited number of potential students for games programming, but no jobs. If unis…

It seemed clear from Honda JP that the agency model was Honda Australia's last hope of long-term survival. So, let's look at the last 5…

Our second to last cat lasted for just short of 23 years from when she was purchased from a local Pet store (she was a Sept 1999 kitten,…

I'd probably be giving the agent the boot too. Not passing on details of defects is inexcusable - the landlord needs to know and make the…

First it's clear the agent messed up here - always, always give extra time. Back in the old days agents used to give 7 days extra time just…

I would think it could go much worse if the landlord doesn't defend 'his' actions.

With this number of fake nominations going to the one address, you'd think someone (VicRoads?) could collate, work out where drivers may be…

Woolworths is similar. Woolworths had 250g on half price in the week starting 17th January. ($7.45, from $14.90 normal price). $11.95 for…

Speaking of shrinkflation > Tasmanian Heritage Camembert or Double Cream Brie 200g When did these drop from 250g? B@stards.

> absolutely no missed repayments, no default of any sort So... not a profitable customer then.

You were breaking their ToS with sharing your account. The rest is just detail.

Not sure I'd agree - 1 kg doesn't last long when you're standing next to a fire - only about 7-10 seconds. I'd be happier with something…

I think the most recent is the CEO describing people who buy their products as investments; [TechSpot…

This is Australia mate, you have no rights other than the content of the constitution - which is pretty quiet on individual rights. Sorry,…

> Why would they leave it sitting empty? Do you know how easy it is to sell with only a Power of Attorney? In our experience, we found it…

What happened for all the people whose (50/20) plan increased? It appears they automatically increased them according to posts on Whirlpool.

You can still get it some niche places. I insisted on it, but compared back-to-back with the Heinz Ketchup, I preferred the ketchup…

Dell usually brings out its new latitude laptops in April.. So I'd presume manufactured between April 2019 and April 2020... approximately…

At work we had quite a few 5400's, they seemed a fairly solid laptop, and we didn't have many faults. The work ones were a similar spec to…

Definitely. They were sold with the Dell 7.4mm barrel jack adapters (at least all the ones I saw) but charging via USB-C PD is supported.

This is a tragedy, they should make it public holiday, so everyone will can celebrate @Marrk! 🎉

"Your call is important to us"... but not important enough to employ enough staff....

> Majority of Australia voted No (which implies majority of Australians supports Australia Day as a holiday). There is no way to know why…

If you do a [lookup on the BSB number](https://bsb.auspaynet.com.au), you can get the branch details. For 923-100: (most common BSB they…

That's only the implication you've considered. When ordered, you ordered from HN online. Your $2.5k is/was there. The poor (employees of a…

I'm sure they'll be worried about the fine.
