Birds. According to the news if you wait a bit these suburbs are likely to have a lot of people at risk of defaulting on their home loans.

Derrimut, Point Cook, Werribee, Cranbourne, Craigieburn

Lots of new homes and new estates in these areas...guessing people who used first home benefits to get into the market and borrowing near their max.

House market is messed up but owning one isn't for everyone at any stage of their life.

 

Sounds like there is Per User Shaping and quota...

If you're going through 500mb in 5 minutes, turn down the quality of the video until it all looks like japanese porn.

It happens on my phone and laptop, regardless of usage.

And why would I be able to download a 100mb file at full speed, but not able to load IMDb or Google at the same time?

YouTube defaults to 360p or lower because of poor buffering

seems like its pretty solid at 0.045. An order there will probably sit there for a week or more until theres a dump for no reason.

still got a while to go. I'll sit and wait till after tax time. No more buying for me. Need to focus on my MMA gambling side gig. live betting online is quite lucrative.

No rush, results aren't due until late June anyway. It will probably ramp up prior to that though on expectations and people taking positions, so my entry is looking st around mid June or before if I can get my 4.3 order through. It's looking doubtful though; order expires next week. Definitely sunk from the 4.9 we saw pre-spud and I think it will hit 4.4 again in the meantime, maybe even 4.3 but 4.5 is yes probably a good floor we can agree on.

The bigger issue is people thinking they can borrow to their absolute limit when credit is cheap. But ignore the fact they clearly can't afford it when rates go up.

I don't know how this happens in Australia anyway. From what I've seen, using all the banks' and lenders' calculators on their websites, they seem only prepared to lend you at most an amount with a repayment rate of around 60% your after tax income - basically budgeting/assuming my expenses on my behalf, when the reality is, rent aside, I'm capable of saving easily 80% my monthly income. Some calculators did not reduce the total lend amount until I put in $1500+ of monthly expenses...

So unless you lose your job I don't know how people are defaulting unless degenerate alcoholism / gambling population who can't control their spending. Having kids could explain a good chunk of it, but shit...not everyone can afford those either.

I think this is a big part of it.

you look at it now and your both kid free, earning good income no worries.

kid comes along, loose one income for a period plus extra bills, is that 80% still correct then? prob not.

 

And unfortunately for some these days it's a choice of house or kids.

 

I'd be curious to know the % of disability welfare people and age groups vs somewhere like UK or Canada. There seem to be a lot of able bodied people around who seem to choose not to work... I know a lot of people can't work, but them seem to be a lot who can.
I guy I used to know had short term memory loss from a motorbiking accident, was on the pension and occasionally do labour cashies. His stories of his previous jobs just sounded like he was being a difficult ass hole who would argue with people, so was easier to not work...

LSE. currently we follow them.

LSE finished down lastnight and we were even at the start of the day

19mil traded just about worthy of a speeding ticket, something is going on - serious movement, a pump and dump or leaks

Beat a ZX10 and an R1 to the speed limit...don't see how this is possible when my R1 used to eat everything up, even with a shitty launch. They were certainly trying though :/

1. They weren't trying

2. They're shit riders

One of the above, obviously as you know those bikes are capable of a 10sec flat (maybe even 9s)

I'm gonna go with shit riders

I'm usually focused on the road ahead for such events, but def heard that R1 revving. Odd in itself cause 1st gear tops out at 160+ 

3rd possibility...mocked up litre bikes or...good guy Gregs who try to give other people narrow victories? lol

    • I don't think there's any way someone is push starting this car.. I honestly can barely move it, and moving it and steering it is just flat out not possible. I'm sure it is, but needs a bigger man than me. I have a refurbished starter now. The starter man was quite clear and consise showing me how nothing inside a starter really should contribute to slow cranking, and turned out that for the most part... my starter was entirely fine. Still, some of the wear items were replaced and luckily it didn't show any signs of getting too hot, being unfit for use, etc. Which is 'good'. I also noticed the starter definitely sounded different, which is a bit odd considering nothing should have really changed there.... Removed and refit, and we'll pretend one of the manifold bolts didn't fully tighten up and is only "pretty" tight. GM only wants 18ft/lb anyway. I also found a way to properly get my analog wideband reading very slightly leaner than the serial wideband. There's Greg related reasons for this. The serial output is the absolute source of truth, but it is a total asshole to actually stay connected and needs a laptop. The analog input does not, and works with standalone datalogging. Previously the analog input read slightly richer, but if I am aiming at 12.7 I do not want one of the widebands to be saying 12.7 when the source of truth is 13.0. Now the source of truth will be 12.65 and the Analog Wideband will read 12.7. So when I tune to 12.7 it'll be ever so slightly safer. While messing with all of this and idling extensively I can confirm my car seems to restart better while hot now. I did add an old Skyline battery cable between the head and the body though, though now I really realise I should have chosen the frame. Maybe that's a future job. The internet would have you believe that this is caused by bad grounds. In finding out where my grounds actually were I found out the engine bay battery post actually goes to the engine, as well as a seperate one (from the post) to the body of the car. So now there's a third one making the Grounding Triangle which is now a thing. I also from extensive idling have this graph. Temperature (°C) Voltage (V) 85 1.59 80 1.74 75 1.94 70 2.1 65 2.33 60 2.56 55 2.78 50 2.98 45 3.23 40 3.51 35 3.75 30 4.00   Plotted it looks like this. Which is actually... pretty linear? I have not actually put the formula into HPTuners. I will have to re-engage brain and/or re-engage the people who wanted more data to magically do it for me. Tune should be good for the 30th!
