- Comment on Albanese invites Arab 'hypermarket' to compete with Coles and Woolworths 1 week ago:
Sorry, failing to see what the format has to do with different costs for things at different places. The stores have to differentiate to attract customers, so use those differences to your advantage.
- Comment on Albanese invites Arab 'hypermarket' to compete with Coles and Woolworths 1 week ago:
There is not no competition… it’s just lower on “convenience”.
Eg how many places do you spread your weekly shopping?
- Comment on Albanese invites Arab 'hypermarket' to compete with Coles and Woolworths 1 week ago:
In Germany different supermarkets focus on different things, so you can shop around for different things, eg meat, veg, bread, canned at get different ones in different places to make your money go further. Its usually pretty easy cos you don’t need to drive across town to visit 2 or 3 places, but the reluctance to go to >1 places in Australia I think is one big reason why people still get stooged… You have choice, just got to use it… If you say OK its too hard and just get everything at Coles.
Then shut the whining, you made your choice.

K3s with flux inside. Fun video from a guy with a nice easy repo from goto conference on YouTube. Might be a bit much but… Not sure of anything for compose and gitops

Where are the Zero-knowledge (zk) implementations of this. It’s possible in crypto land…
- Comment on In Paris it’s normal to raise a family in a three-bedroom apartment. Why aren’t we building more in Australia? 4 weeks ago:
But its essentially saying you want to imitate a situation of a whole family living in a small apartment in Paris’ center due to high rent costs, again, but in Australia now.
I also live in an apartment with a small family in a large world Metropolis but the reason people pay a lot for the 3 bedroom apartments is not cos of availability but per sqm cost which is more in the cities.
- Comment on In Paris it’s normal to raise a family in a three-bedroom apartment. Why aren’t we building more in Australia? 4 weeks ago:
Paris is known for small and expensive apartments, some, if not the highest per square meter prices. Why would you want to emulate that?
- Comment on Psychiatrists fear medicinal cannabis adverse events are 'tip of the iceberg' 4 weeks ago:
Many aussies think one joint will drop you into lifelong psychosis. Go to Amsterdam where its legal to buy and they just think its another part of the range of substances there.
The expectation has a lot to do on perceived effects. No way a doctor is gonna get to the bottom of expectations, same way they don’t when they prescribe other drugs with their other dependencies and side effects.
User beware.
- Comment on Is there no good inexpensive CAD software? 4 weeks ago:
Onshape would be ubiquity. Easy to use, flash, has all the good bits. Ripe to screw the customer at any moment once enough lock in is gained.

Cheese you can buy from the Deli counter if you don’t want plastic wrapped.

- Comment on Young Australians have much higher student debt than generations before them, data shows 2 months ago:
High inflation and then a over saturation degrees(no longer a differentiator), people who’ve been told go to uni and you’ll get a better job are left with debt and no better job. In a lot of cases where they don’t use their degrees.
Then it goes up each year with inflation… Even if you’re not paying it (since you don’t meet the threshold)
Definitely more thought is needed before just ‘going to uni’. Eg should you get a trade or study on the job.

Debian with docker and Samba. Done.
Nixos if you want to repeat it… (Wouldn’t do it as my first NixOS experience)
TrueNAS if you want clicky GUI handhold.
- Comment on Card payment surcharges should be banned for debit and credit payments, RBA says 2 months ago:
Least with debit (not CC) you don’t pay fees to credit card companies.
Crypto networks are doing it for microcents, for massive volumes and amounts, see Robinhood on Ethereum in Europe.
The percentage that gets passed onto users is thanks to MasterCard and visa…
- Comment on Card payment surcharges should be banned for debit and credit payments, RBA says 2 months ago:
Then it should be cheaper for cash payment.

- Comment on PSA: filebrowser is no longer being actively developed 3 months ago:
Not my server, it’s a shared one I have a http server and some files on. I want a nice frontend. I’ve used all in one php ones with some success, but this looks nicer.
