Liberal logic: > Rich family pays $35K in private school fees > Gets $15K back as a tax deduction > School still gets $5K in public funding Taxpayer contribution to one kid’s private education? ~$20K. More than a public school kid gets. Peak Liberal Logic: Subsidise the rich.

Records continue to tumble as the nation’s most renewable powered state notches up new highs for wind generation and big battery discharge

First test of our new heat pump clothes dryer… in a shipping container… where’s its zero deg C (Long weeeknd). How did it go? Ok I guess, clothes were warmish and felt a little damp but felt dry not long after. Dumped the captured water back into rainwater tank. #efficient.

So it would make sense to reduce or remove education costs even at the tertiary level. As our children are our future. And education is a national asset. No need to make it a tax deductible for the more well off. #auspol

I have been saying this for years, as a pilot who regularly flies over Sydney, we have more than enough unused industrial roof space for solar to power the entire city, New build code should include as much solar as possible on large industrial buildings. #auspol #solar

Found the secret to keeping the Nissan LEAF battery warm while fast charging… do it when it’s 4 deg C outside. 89% on a DC fast charge and still a decent buffer to the first red line. #EV.

The 2025 Electrified GV70 is here: ⚡ 462km WLTP range 📺 27" OLED screen 🔊 B&O 16-speaker system 🧼 UV-C console + air aroma diffuser 💰 From $132,800 MLP in Australia Luxury EVs just levelled up. #GenesisAU #ElectricSUV #GV70

Fastest charging #EVs in Australia *as claimed by manufacturer www.carexpert.com.au/car-news/the...

European centric but many of these awesome smaller #EVs are available in Australia now. www.moveelectric.com/en-au/galler...

Even in the face of evidence proving range anxiety isn’t an issue, many Australian car buyers believe the bullshit spread by anti EV FUD. Here is a prime example where the FUD didn’t work www.washingtonpost.com/climate-solu...

A good long weekend end evening from my personal Kangaroo hordes and driveway guards. Their dedicated. Even stood out there in the snow flurries. #wildlife #Australia.

Snow outside. Warm inside.

Is this the first time in Australia an MiEV has been covered in snow? (Albeit light dusting)

I thought this would happen closer to election time, to delay (indefinitely) the next election.

Are we really watching the collapse of the USA into fascist dictatorship?

If thug immigrants are taking over America, why isn’t there any evidence of mass unrest and crime? But when the Runp government gets involved it’s heavy armed people and a lot of unrest wherever they go?

Our new LEAF. Bit of a shock, 6 years from new in a warm Sydney garage. Now this.

So 0.4% of Australia's richest may have to pay a tiny bit more tax on their multimillion dollar super accounts and suddenly its the end of times. Clearly the Coalition and media do not represent or care about the 99.6% of us. #auspol #qanda #abc730

Learnt today that 20% on the Nissan LEAF battery temp gauge is about 0 deg C. As the car has sat all night and all day. And the outside temp is between Zero and 1.

Landmark passed in our IRL settlers game. Hot water achieved. Lots have happened in the last week. Garage built. Water filters installed. Pumps installed and hot water. (Temporary gas powered until electricity connected and heat pump arrives). Oh and First snow.

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

Things that change your DNA can cause cancer, vehicle pollution, sunlight and some viruses change your DNA. Vaccines do not.

Can’t stand chemtrail conspiracy theorists who argue that the record level flooding in Taree was caused by spraying. While farmed across SE Australia are struggling with drought… think critically people!

Odd sunset before the weekend of snow. This looking north east at sunset. Oh. And have a great weekend.

In Australia you can build a house for summer, or build a house for winter. Developers build neither. Spent a few days down the south coast in a new home. It’s colder than my garage in Oberon.

How are MAGA going to handle both their dads breaking up?

Global EV sales are ramping up again! Big time! On that note, tonight's video may trigger some anti-EV & anti-solar troll tears so get your buckets ready. Been an EV nut for 30+ years and those early years were tough so it feels damn good to find myself on the winning team at last. 😎
