  1. Past hour
  2. There's Practically NO servicing needed on a Pure electric car. That "means something" in the Overall Picture.. In a Hybrid, the IC motor gets a fairly hard time. Fuel must be clean and not stale. The car must be electrically alive to run at all. ie start the IC motor. They are inevitably more expensive than a pure ICE vehicle OR an EV. At 8 years most batteries are still 95 % and can be used as storage for Houses etc for years after.. Geely make "straight" EVs. A mate of mine just bought one. Available range is Increasing all the time.. The "early" Prius (Hybrid) were a pile of trouble. The Hondas would hold up semi's on hills . IF you are Just trying to save Money stick to a reliable Older ICE car that you enjoy driving while there's still fuel available and save the expense of any newer stuff which will go on Improving all the time, the longer you wait.

  3. Today
  4. What you are doing is part of trial by Media. Nev
  5. I haven't seen any trial by media or lynch mob for the Bondi shooter, nothing like BRS gets, he cops it all.
  6. We don't (have to) import electricity. Unless it's produced by diesel generators. Diesel and Petrol cannot be assured. We are not self sufficient. No fuel. No go at all. No matter how efficient it is. Nev
  7. Who knows? Things change daily. What it means though, starting with a full tank and charge, you could drive Melbourne to Sydney and back to Canberra without a refill. Range anxiety quashed.
  8. You still NEED Hydrocarbon fuel for this and can that be assured in today's world.? Nev
  9. Better than trial by Media or a Lynch mob.. Nev

    Brain Teaser

    Correct.
  13. I see the surgeon this afternoon to check on the incision. I have slept sitting up in an armchair for the past 5 nights to aviod rolling over onto it. I see the Cochlear care centre on 5/10 when I expect to get the external sound processor. Then 5 consultations to help train the brain to the new sounds. They are different to what your ear hears, but they say it is a great improvement. I have no hearing at all in my left ear.
  14. Bail refused. Kept on Remand until the Trial has been completed. It takes a long time for such very serious cases to come to Trial. Two years from time of charging would be quick. Witht eh number of charges involved it will take a long time for the evidence to be collated in a format that can be placed before the Court. The wheels of Justice grind slow, but fine.
  15. Hey Peter, how's your new brain interface coming along? I hope you are getting the plugin memery module to go with it. I'd love to get one of those! Was thinking of your medical pathway today - while I was sliding in and out of the CT machine. I just had a epidural pain block - these days they go to a lot more trouble to get the needle into the right spot! Now I do a pain log for a month to see if steroids help. Aint tech great!
  16. Yeah well it's no speedy trial, is it? The longer it takes, the more that will be entered into it. It's basic human nature. What happened to that Bondi shooter? Has he been given a false name and allowed to live on the other side of Australia with the ISIS brides? I don't think he'll ever be tried.
  17. That's a bit of a cop-out. This is being dealt with by the Courts, currently. You Post it, you own it.. I would suggest caution. Nev
  18. He"owns " everything. He Listens to No One but Tries to blame everyone else, when it goes to $#!t. He Da King, so the Buck stops with HIM. Nev

  20. Last week
  21. Gary "Angry" Anderson, lead singer of Rose Tattoo, has passed away, not recovering from a cardiac arrest he suffered a month ago.
  22. . Anything but a Black Shadow is a relatively low output motor. 45 and 50 Hp for 1000 ccs and the gearbox and clutch are nothing special. it's also hard to fit an electric starter. There were Plenty of Norvins made with Aftermarket frames. The heads don't give good gasflow figures and the 90 degree valve angle is out dated and inefficient. A used Buell 1200 cc for just over 100 hp pulls like a train and cools better with a strong gearbox and clutch and electric start. Nev
  23. Are you aware of the growing use of automation and artificial intelligence in public administration and what happens when these systems fail? In the name of cutting costs and improving efficiency, from welfare compliance and predictive policing to visa processing and risk assessment, automated systems are reshaping how governments interact with public. Anyone for Robodebt on steroids? Are we going to have a complaints department, or will that be an A.I. assistant, too?
  24. Back in the day, I always wanted to build a Norvin. It all started when I stumbled on a photograph of one parked at the Phillip Island bike races. It was a Black Shadow motor in a Norton featherbed frame and was finished off in cafe racer style. I got as far as acquiring a slimline featherbed frame, but I think I knew at the time I was unlikely to ever come across an affordable Black Shadow motor, and that's about as far as the project got. A Vincent V-twin would look good in just about any frame.
