Ten years ago, I had to set up a dedicated Twitter account to harass Tony Fernandes to get a due refund from Air Asia. Sad but true. All…

Update: Eufy customer service was very helpful. They had me check the power supply and it turns out I was running only 1 amp. The power…

Everything else works fine. But, as the previous commenter mentioned, it may have to do with frequency switching.

Yep. We moved house last month and our Eufy system has been offline ever since. Homebase refuses to stay connected to the new wifi. Very…

Shows as $29.90 at checkout for me.

Modafinil is far more effective. It really feels like you've had a full night's sleep.

For anyone thinking about visiting Antanrctica. I very strongly recommend Antarctica21. They do small-boat tours with plenty of Zodiac…

My local Bunnings price-matched Costco plus 10% off.

I just like to point out instances of arrant nonsense. Your point about vegan products was accurate and incisive. Unfortunately you then…

Whatever is in your pipe certainly isn't tobacco. You seem to have missed the entire point of this discussion.

It's way better than it was. When I grew up, poor people caught the train to Perth while rich people flew. Nowadays I can get myself across…

What makes you qualified to judge whether the price of a Whopper is 'reasonable' or not? What public data lead you to conclude that HJ's…

How do you define and detect 'price-gouging'? Are HJ's profit margins exceptionally high? Do they lack competition?

The primary goal of a corporation is to make money. People do not knowingly invest in corporations whose aim is to lose money. I, like most…

You mean like when Ansett and TAA would both charge you exactly $469.51 to fly from Canberra to Sydney regardless of when you bought the…

If you don’t turn up to their seminar all bright and bushy-tailed and sit through the entire multi-hour pitch, you get billed the…

Rubbish deal. Code doesn’t work.

Mostly good points, aside from your notion that ‘homo sapien’ is a singular.

What objective evidence can you offer us indicating that standards have dropped at Australian universities? Last I heard, several Aussie…

What a foolish, ignorant comment. Motor vehicle fatality rates in the sort of Third World countries mentioned here are anything up to 20…

All you'll find in South Korea are xenophobes and frostbite. It's a rubbish country, particularly in winter. Don't even think of walking…

Less than basic literacy, too.

They’re an unpredictable bunch.

It’s nothing like a Timezone.

And now, before you can say…. https://youtu.be/_3lKOUfsjNI

I’d recommend visiting a Disneyland at least once in your life - it’s unlike any other theme park out there. In this case, DisneySea…

Joypolis is a lot of fun, but it’s not up there with Disney. If you do go, be sure to hit it on weekdays while school is in session. You…

They’re almost as short as the que’s for the dictionary.

Terrific game. It sometimes turns up for $2 in various bargain bins, but absolutely worth ten times that.
