- Comment on We need faster speed limits in Australia - and I'm not saying that because I'm a hoon | Opinion - Car News 3 days ago:
Agree with the economic points.
Yes wombats etc would not be able to reach autobahns in most cases.
10 times the size of Germany
Germany is incredibly dense with roads and I’d say would have more paved highway KMs than Australia.
Thing is with the unpaved stuff in Aus you can often already do your 130+ cos nobody is around.
- Comment on We need faster speed limits in Australia - and I'm not saying that because I'm a hoon | Opinion - Car News 4 days ago:
I’ve lived in Germany for 10 years and been 250ish on the autobahn.
Australian roads are no where near the quality, smoothness, curvature and undulation specs needed for 150+
I could see maybe some places the roads could be 130ish. But only for minute stretches.
But as for driving standards, no fucking way. Eg you cannot have people in the far right lane “I’m going the speed limit” so sit behind me.
Stay left unless overtaking for a good 5 years first, then can think about increasing speed limits.
PS this only works on separated direction freeways.

- Comment on An unwritten 'country code' is putting Rob's life at risk on the road, and all he's doing is turning right 1 month ago:
Just gonna say, ive said thanks out loud in the car and given the truck the thumbs up after he just gave one or two clicks of the right-hand blinker saying we could pass (after being on their arse for a few kms). Multiple times.
But if it was stuck on and still blinking then I would not pass.
Just saying… Cos they’re not gonna write an article like this and it not existing.

That wasn’t my question. But I think I got the answer now, “Most posters are left leaning.”
Easy.

You can try a markdown formatted table!
Works good in github readme, and here in Voyager/lemmy, not sure about codeberg.
ChatGPT would make quick work of creating it from your data, then just copy and paste. Should render in rich text mode like this
markdown table x y |markdown|table| |--|---| |x|y|
Not hugely Scalable but is easily readable

Theres a nice LawTech company in Berlin operating currently where they will take the case for you, in trying to get your rent back to market level, and in Berlin they backpay the difference.
The company Conny.De/en upon a win, take 3months of the rent per month they save you going forward (and in retrospect ).
Plenty of people with wins in my friendship group
- Comment on Australia's prime minister rejects China's claims that his country is rife with 'racism and hate crimes' 2 months ago:
From chatgpt after I gave it your comment…
The phenomenon you’re describing is often referred to as “ethnic succession” or “the ladder of social mobility” in the context of racial and immigrant integration.
This process has been observed historically in the U.S., Canada, and the UK as well, with each generation gradually shifting its identity and aligning with majority cultural values, while still carrying the trauma or prejudice they once faced.

- Comment on New car buyers driven to white or grey, with bright colours rarer than ever, data shows 3 months ago:
The rents needed a new roof lately, I showed them the stats for surfmist compared to dark colourbond (which they wanted initially)
But they settled on zinc-alum which is not quite as good as surf mist for the heat, but much cheaper and still good. They’re in North West Victoria, hits 45 all the time in summer and weeks of 35+ easy.
- Comment on New car buyers driven to white or grey, with bright colours rarer than ever, data shows 3 months ago:
Don’t buy blue in the aussie sun, it cracks and weathers faster than even black.
Now why we have so many dark coloured colourbond roofs for the crazy heat is beyond me.
