U hide under rings?

Was going for pull out merchant but this works

Do you mean BYD, the brand?

Oops yeah.

Lol, one of their model names is "Dolphin". Could you possibly contrive any name to appeal to environmentalists more.

Anyone interested in the Palestine conflict, this is one of the more balanced and comprehensive commentary's i've seen.
Hard not to agree with him by the end.

Also has a segment on social media misinformation. ( and mainstream news ).

Wouldn't be caught dead in one. Then again, I'd probably die in one.

Hardly clean vehicles considering the manufacturing process and the battery volatility.



Let's hope the Australian quality standards are 10,000x better than that of China's.

"Quality Standards" are pretty universal.
ISO 9001, IATF16949. Different variations for aerospace and other specialties.

Not much relevance for Australian Quality standards, since we don't make the cars here.

I think Tesla buy their batteries from Korea.

Can’t believe SEN is at serious risk of going under. Work it out Hutchy, the Monday means test helps get me through work during footy season. Don’t know how he’s going to do it though because a sports radio station seems like a pretty unsustainable business in Australia.

Get Rex Hunt back on. These other wetwipes don't cut it.

Some random cretin has blown in and thumbs downed me!! From WA too!

SEN was a lot better before Hutchy wrecked it. Used to love listening to Finey

Thinking about offering every one a THC Lolly pop or a DMT ( better than CMP) experience or both at my Xmas party...thoughts?

What about some mushies?

Heard they're an absolute killer at get-togethers

Not a great argument really. They’re not supposed to be perfectly clean, just better than petrol cars because they don’t push pollutants out from exhaust pipes where they affect the whole planet and where they’re impossible to catch and remediate. Focused mining/manufacturing emissions or pollution are multiple orders of magnitude easier to deal with.

Correct. Now all the emissions come out of a coal fired power station that you can't see from the inner city. Much better.

Just shave it off, Dard.

Just shave it off.

This week, The Age reported that a director’s note in an October-released annual report from the SEG empire – which includes SEN Radio – noted its status as a “material uncertainty”, given that it reported a loss of $9.3 million in FY23 and has only $1 million left available of a $28 million loan from Commonwealth Bank, which is due next August.

I can't believe they can spend so much without trying to reel in the costs earlier.
I'd have also thought that the costs would mainly be attributable to payment of their hosts.

How on earth did they make 9 million loss in 23?

MP Kylea Tink and Cancer Council Western Australia say the beverage is likely to appeal to underage drinkers.
--------------------------
Dear Kylea ( did your parents really spell it that way or did you change it yourself from Karen ) those precious little darlings would drink metho and orange juice if they couldn't get anything more palatable. ( You can actually make juice wine with a plastic bottle of juice and yeast, you need to wet the lid and sort of screw it on so that its loose enough to let gas escape, but tight enough to stop air getting in ).

Solo is really expensive though, so they will probably still stick to Cider. Most of them don't seem to like beer.

Seriously what the absolute ****
As someone in the alcoholic industry this is not a big problem

It’s getting worse
