Thanks Ken. I thought there might be a Ubeaut product lurking somewhere. I will pass on the info with a link to my friend.

I'm posting this question on behalf of a friend. She has a Rosewood Baby Grand Piano that has French Polish finish (which may have seen better days, by all accounts).

She used to use a product...

"Independent". Hmmm...

That doesn't necessarily mean that 5 year old data has changed much, if any. We know that it's still extremely expensive to set up, with a very long lead time, and with eye-watering de-commissioning...

There is no way that everybody there could be the same age.

Yup, it's a 2009, and has already required a new thermostat in around 2014...

Good job mic. My calculations on eliminating the CL1 circuit from here:
Cost for electrician to remove the circuit and tag (or whatever they have to do for officialdom) $300
Cost per day to keep...

Japan is 377,973 km² (1.36x Victoria)
It has about 2000 hours of sunshine per year.
Call it 756 million km²hours of sunshine per year (377,976 * 2000)
They produced 83GW of solar power in 2022.

Yebbutt we HAVE to start making a stand to get some manufacturing happening here again. We can no longer afford to wait it out until Chinese wages force the labour costs up towards the rest of the...

It doesn't say when manufacturing will commence (I'd guess around 3 years from now) but certainly appears to be a very good step:

Anthony Albanese announces Solar SunShot manufacturing program to...

That's well thought through with good detail Paul.
First Aukus sub around 2040 if it's been a good decade? Not sure.

To celebrate the return of 'shmiller from deepest darkest Norge (and my own successful return from Penrith) I purchased a 6-pack of Trost Lager at Dan Murphy's a little earlier.

Yairs....or we could revert to having a sensible opposition (of either flavour) with some original ideas.

I just think the whole nuclear idea will become moot within a fairly short period of time...

I believe they used a similar sign in 16th-18th Century England, but the lumps were a different substance.




More dangerous too, mainly because of the after-effects.

If that happens, and Voldemort defies history* and wins the next election, he will press on with nuking us. Have the debate by all means, but keep us safe from idiots with dumb ideas.



*When a...

:no:
"...he will continue look foolish" :;

Very sensible, and exactly the approach what I'm expecting from Voldemort.

Like Peter Dutton, John Gorton once had a nuclear plan. It didn'''t end well - ABC News

They have 3463 public charging stations, so ignoring places where you can't drive (for ease of calculation) that's one station per 111 km². Call it 100 km², and it's a 10x10km square...the longest...

I just finished watching Insiders where Dan Tehan was talking up the Coalition's loss in the Dunkley by-election yesterday as "a fabulous result" for the Coalition (there was an absolutely stock...

In my experience the OP is pretty hard to offend, but I meant more about the sparks & cars situation in Norway. (happy to read a thread on your tour though)

...or not. Keen to hear more about the situation in Norway, actually. :2tsup:

Yairs....so is my hairline...is climate change responsible for that too? It never used to be this high.

It might be more appropriate to have a the sound of a Wankel Rotary engine.



Yes, I should have specified that I meant the drivetrain.



The current Mazda 3 (in at least the Astina model)...

Perhaps they could attach a microphone to this: "HEY! EYES UP!". :D

I've heard that for those who must have engine noise there are things available to provide that. I just hope that they are only audible within the vehicle itself.



EVs are far simpler than...

So Paul, we have a problem for the generator companies when the price is either very low or -ve, and they would like to be able to do something with that power rather than sell it at a compelled...

Toyota is pushing hydrogen cars but will they ever be as cheap to run as EVs? - ABC News

From the first post:

Thanks Matt. Do you mean to supply the Bailey channel or to do the job? Either way I seem to only get results for people to replace windsceens.

I think what I need is "64-016 Dual Bailey Channel"...

G'day

I have a ute with a canopy, and the rubber Bailey channel that the canopy windows slide is hard & buggered. This is causing some water to leak in. The metal channel that the rubber sits in...

The problem is, that as Russ points out, the pricing is in 5 minute intervals and then averaged for a 30 min billing block. Within that 30min block it can be +ve, -ve, etc. On the day in question it...

I think this might be spot on. If you have a look at Maps aerial view, the four gas units match up, AND the picture in Graeme's post show the units in almost total broadside, so the battery must be...

Yeah.
And we're minimum 10 years behind where we should be.

While I was assembling that post I noticed that the price had gone negative (-34c) and then changed to -17c a few minutes ago. Apparently it will still be -38c from 19:00 to 19:30.
So I went around...

Well, I have an update on that, which I was going to post about earlier when you posted about yesterday's prices.

Amber sent me a text at 19:09 warning of a price spike. We had both split aircons...

I should just point out that Lake Macquarie State Con Area (top right) is NOT a prison. :D
Nor is it anything to do with Clive Palmer.

The smart move would be to use those sparks on the Central Coast.

I doubt that is strictly correct, and even if it was, it wouldn't have all been at the same time – it would have been spread over eons. In other words there is no chance that all the fossil fuel was...

What's the point of that, in this case?

There would only be a point to that if there was any doubt that the climate is changing at an unprecedented and very rapid rate.
If there is no doubt...

That's either Freudian or deliberate Bob, because Alan Finkel certainly got finked by the Prime Minister of the time.

Well I suppose one can always stick one's head out the window and see if they are noticing anything odd going on. It sure seems that way up here, and various other wild weather events seem to be far...

Buying a new car? Here'''s how cheaper batteries and new emissions regulations will affect the price - ABC News

Jeez, you had me a little excited there for a moment! :D

HA! :roflmao2:

Yes but methane is one of the very worst greenhouse gases.

So, given the vast number of cruise ships, all we have to do is put a wind-turbine on the back of each one and we'll save a fortune's worth of emissions! :D

Problems getting into port? Nah, no...

You'd probably only get up to "What the..." anyway.

Same mud, different month?

Where are you now? Did you manage to get back there?
