If I purchase a flat outright, will a bank give me a personal loan (eg $50k) using the flat as collateral? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

When you say outright you have, for example 450k for a 500k apartment? If that is the case then you just need to get a mortgage for the difference and be done with it. With that much of a deposit I didn't think they would see it as much of a risk, but who knows. A mortgage will be much lower interest than a personal loan. Also have you factored in all of the extras... legals, stamp duty, etc etc.

I sense the weekend will be a symphony of lawn mowers

Why doesn’t the steamdeck hibernate by default? in c/[email protected]

Yah all good questions and good responses. Suspend is great for this handheld, but as @[email protected] mentions linux isn't great at suspend out of the box and having a very configurable embedded system like the steamdeck lumps it in this basket.

I got one of amazon.com.au in June. The price was pretty much the same as the direct conversion from USD, and it got delivered the next day. Obv a 3rd party seller but have been super happy with the purchase.

Reminder to Compare Energy Providers, and the AUS GOV website is pretty good (www.energymadeeasy.gov.au)
 

https://www.energymadeeasy.gov.au/ My current provider, like all of them, jacked up my leccy prices in July, but a bit too far for my liking. The Gov comparison site, which I used last time, is still pretty good and you dont need to give your data to private corps lile iselect / meerkat. Hopefully a considerable saving on the new provider, but sill not as cheap as last years prices.

Posting here as no CCoast yet, maybe I should ask for one....

As the Central Coast gears up to host Germany and England for their team base training camps during the FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia & New Zealand 2023™,a key sporting facility will be unavailable for public use. From Saturday 1 July until Monday 21 August 2023 the Central Coast Regional Sporting and Recreation Complex (CCRSRC) will be used exclusively by the German Women’s Team for training and rehabilitation purposes. The team will be based locally for the duration of the tournament as they prepare for their Group H games against Morocco (24 July in Melbourne), Columbia (30 July in Sydney) and South Korea (3 August in Brisbane). Team England will also have exclusive use of Central Coast Stadium for training before taking on their Group D opponents Haiti (22 July in Brisbane), Demark (28 July in Sydney), and China (1 August in Adelaide).
Due to the requirements of the tournament, public access to the venue will be strictly controlled with enhanced security procedures. The public are also reminded that personal drones will also not be permitted to fly in the airspace of the CCRSRC during training days.
