Here in Australia, Mustang V8s hold their value pretty well. When I was looking for a sports car (which I've now learnt is very different to a muscle car), the Mustang was top of the list because there was nothing else out there with:

- manual - V8 - 2 doors - under <$100k

I spent a week with one, and while I quite enjoyed it, it required you to really rev out the engine to feel anything (which is nice!). Except that would push you into 130km/h+ which means instant loss of license for 6 months and a forever tarnished record meaning insurance is much more expensive for the rest of your life.

Settled for an ND2 MX-5 that I throw around corners now. It means I have to have a "normal" car as a daily (as the MX-5 isn't that practical) but it also means I can have fun without getting pulled up by the gestapo


Am I reading this right? 130 km/h is ~ 80 mph. In the US, doing 80 in a 70-zone doesn't upset most police officers.


I'm not the person you replied to, but in a 110 km/h (70 mph) zone you'd get away with just a fine in Australia if caught/pulled over. To lose your license for six months, you'd need to be doing 130+ km/h in an 80 km/h (50 mph) zone.


No, loss of license is 20-24km/h over the speed limit in a 110km/h zone (our fastest roads iirc). So 130 is sayonara license.

For every other road, 25km/h+ is instant loss of license. This is for Vic btw

Yep, I was referring to the license suspension for 6 months though, which is what the earlier post was talking about. What you’re referring to is a license suspension for 3 months.


Australia's road laws tend to be strictly applied. Large fines and demerit points that can lead to loss of licence. We also have random breath tests.

We have much lower road fatalities than the USA per 100,000 people and per billion km traveled though the rates in remote areas are considerably higher.


Yeah, we also have many highways with a speed limit of 80 and one with speed limit up to 85mph (~137kmh), so you wouldn't necessarily even be speeding.


My main issue with Vaultwarden is that there doesn't appear to be any way to migrate a Bitwarden self-hosted instance to it. I run a Bitwarden server for myself and something like 5-10 family & friends so manually migrating everyone's data is tough.

I'd really love to try Vaultwarden as Bitwarden is pretty heavy on the little server it runs on


Isn't it just exporting/importing the data for each account?


Bitwarden's Vault export will not include attachments.

I think there's a third party tool that will dump everything.


Oh wow, that's inconvenient, even for backups (instead of migrations).


There's also Fluidd

3D printers can do a variety of "bed mesh" leveling, which is where they probe the bed in a grid pattern and then can compensate for any deformities in the bed via software.

This ensures that the first layer (arguably the most important) for any print is perfectly flat and level. This visualizer takes the output of the bed mesh calibration sequence (where each point is a z-offset, usually from what the printer has defined as 0 based on the end stop) and graphs it so you can see your bed deformation.

Most Klipper frontend UIs already have support for this though


I've upgraded my x220 as well and it's good enough for basic dev work with about 8hrs battery life on the big battery. For the screen, are you using the Nitrocaster mod? I have it sitting here and the new IPS 1080p screen but I kind of regret not going for a 16:10 aspect ratio (which requires cutting the frame around the screen)


Insider trading is what you're missing. As evidenced by the March 2020 dump


Uh, what? The sharp drop in equities in February and March 2020 was a massive deleveraging caused by panic selling and leveraged traders being margin called.


NSW also employed the Fixated Persons Unit (a terrorist task force) to arrest a journalist who was critical of John "Pork" Barilaro. So far, there's been no word from the "Law Enforcement Conduct Commission" on whether the arrest was lawful (hint: it wasn't) and nobody has been punished for it (yet - there is the defamation case on-going but the terrorist task force isn't involved in it)


> NSW also employed the Fixated Persons Unit (a terrorist task force) to arrest a journalist who was critical of John "Pork" Barilaro

A guy who worked for a YouTube comedian as a producer, and who allegedly was following a politician to public events and harassing him there, was arrested and charged with stalking. The "Fixated Persons Unit" has a broader mandate than purely terrorism offences, its mandate also extends to stalking and harassment of a "public office holder or internationally protected person, or other person/s nominated by the commissioner of police"

> So far, there's been no word from the "Law Enforcement Conduct Commission" on whether the arrest was lawful (hint: it wasn't)

LECC is unlikely to investigate an arrest while there is a pending criminal prosecution. For them to do so might be seen as interfering with the Court process.

I don't know if the arrest was legal or not. But the police unit which carried out the arrest is irrelevant to the question of its legality.


For those interested, they captured footage of the arrest itself.

This is obviously only one side, but here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXtq4a8829g


Does it? I haven't been able to get it to work correctly with Fire.

    @Gooey()
    def main():
        fire.Fire()

    def hello(name="World"):
        return "Hello %s!" % name

    if __name__ == "__main__":
        main()
It just runs Fire instead of launching Gooey. I've tried quite a few other things re: getting Fire to work with Gooey but nothing seems to have an effect
