the archives and ancestry people already has lots of records from much less than 100 years. im not sure what sort or how much requires a legit reason to access, but im sure if someone tried hard enough... though i doubt it would contain information like income, residential address (current and previous), employer, number of cars on property, location of work for that week etc. Couldnt they just specify what information will be released to public? surely it really should only be name, DOB, country of origin, completed schooling. Does anyone asides from research/statisticians care about any more than that?

nup, too big. I assume all the other census' are treated like this, but it certainly feels weird agreeing to it... Does Liam agree to their name and address and other information on this form being kept by the National Archives of Australia and then made publicly available after 99 years? Answering this question is OPTIONAL.

just run an SR gearbox. do things the Mohsen way

curious: what happens to insurance if the car is recovered, but deemed undamaged? do you still make a claim (for eg) to replace the wheels? what about costs in getting the car inspected for potential engine or drivetrain damage?

ok, so The International main event is starting in a few hours. I couldnt care less about DOTA or valve or teams or whatever. but esports fascinates me in a mind-boggling kind of way. $20mil+ prize pool. over $18mil of that is taken from in-game purchases. There are paid-entry screenings in each capital city in Aus. including one at Crown in melbourne for the final (kicks off at 2am local time I think), and for some reason I'm tempted to attend. I've watching maybe 20mins of a DOTA stream once before, but I think its just the draw that normal spectator sports have with added weirdness.

Project Im Working On - Automation A "car Tycoon" Game
Leroy Peterson replied to daffyflyer's topic in PC & Games Discussion
thread dig. this is still around. and still in pre-release. I enjoyed the engine building a lot (must be almost 2 years ago now) and the game has changed a lot since then with car designer tools, turbos, suspension and drivetrain options etc. Lots of people not happy with the slow progress though. Most people enjoy and play to build cars, the game seems to be trying to flesh out the company tycoon aspects which isnt as exciting. Worth checking out, but $30 isnt cheap for something that isnt going to be finished in the near future and every aspect isn't going to be for everyone. -
I dont recommend RACV, but if they were cheaper than Just Car then thats pretty good. but both are not very friendly when it comes to dealing with claims. Depending on what the car is worth to you, its sometimes better to pay extra for choice of repairer (shannons, famous, lumleys). A lot of places the usual insurers use struggle with imports due to finding parts and unfamiliarity.

its called the elephant toothpaste experiment.

Ex was fructose intolerant, so most meals was on fodmap diet. It's doable but pretty annoying, depends on how bad it is. If you can get away with small amounts of wheat and avocado or mushrooms it makes things more interesting Just paid for bed and mattress from snooze. Decent sale on at the moment, was like 45% discount total. Just annoyed it'll take 6-8 weeks to make, but at least get to choose material

been doing some research on the mattresses, most manufacturers tell you f**k all about the mattress or what options there are. feel like im going to enter a shop and be completely overwhelmed. so far my list is: regular queen (cause my current shitty mattress is the width of queen but length of double and none of my f**king sheets fit it properly), firm, cold/not hot, must have springs of some description (based on dezz's experience). lol thats all i got. Not sure on a topper, or if i want it to be gel or memory or whatever the f**k. I can sleep on my back with just a 1" thick foam mat, so not fussed on comfort I just want it to last and not melt in summer.

how much is a "recommended setting" mattress? i do need some good pillows... I also got recommended a mattress with a top layer thingy (im assuming thats what hamish means)
-
yes. what is this? a car forum or something? If anyone has any advice on buying new bed + mattress, lemme know. looking this weekend and no idea what im doing. Bed frames seem over priced for what they are (what furniture isnt), so considering looking to see if theres anything near-new being flogged off by someone.

i think religion is the only optional section of the census. intense holiday? you went to Japan not that long ago. you going to US soon (not for very long). pour money into the fourdoor and get a reputable workshop who will sort it for you, and dont go all tightassed or car will not get sorted properly. then you can stop crying yourself to lseep every night and be proud of the car you have.

the whole wikileaks thing i guess has a lot of people spooked. the whole data collection thing. but they can do that without a census. what I dont get is how that information would be useful to anyone other than statisticians and marketing firms. All of whom would use that info for what purpose? anything beyond knocking on your front door is illegal. and you're going to get charities/real estate agents/politicians/salespeople knocking on your door knowing your address and possibly name anyway. oh no someone will see what my income is! just like my payslip displays. and group certificates. and ATO info. wait, lemme just fill this survey for Uni of NSW looking into eating habits which includes my age group, income bracket, postcode, brief medical history.

i dont see how its going to cause lots of death... i do see a lot of incidents with trucks being too tall for clearance. and you cant really widen the roads then either. Planning WTAC trip for October. picked hotel, now tossing up whether its worth hiring a car or not... track is only 15mins drive from hotel.

Racepace probably get more positive feedback from working on stock cars than they do modified. They certainly wont be cheap, but by the sounds of the work you need, youre wallet is going to cop a reaming anyway. I cant remember if Vspec performance do much mechanical work, but theyre a forum sponsor located in Blackburn

i've been doing it for years m8, no regrets

your existing coils or injectors wont do the job? RB20 isnt on this list, so maybe its ok? http://www.motoiq.com/MagazineArticles/ID/4263/5-Performance-Car-Engines-That-Suck.aspx

why would you need new brakes if going 25? or coils? or injectors?
