Hema maps,
Just wonder, They show routes through National Parks, behind lock gates.
I know of a few here in the Clarence valley, you can not access the track/s the software shows, some are private lands.
How do they sell a product that has false information? It is misleading.

Cheers

Hi,
    Some tracks do get marked as restricted access, which is not always accurate.
Most maps will show roads that are not accessible to the general public, and state that showing a road does not imply right of access.
Cheers

I'm using 2012 hema maps on Android(Ozexplorer), maybe later maps are more accurate.
I'm also asking for a friend who has lastest navigator gps with the latest software.

You find too that have a habit of 'upgrading' their maps but due to the number of roads rarely check to upgrade the tracks.

No different to the arsewipes that smear crap on the walls of public toilets, smash the locks on the inside, graffiti and Shite all over the seat.
Yet the doors are locked from 6pm to 6am.
Someone must see or hear some noise while they smash stuff.

Anyone using one?



How does it work?

Powerpal connects your electricity meter to your smartphone and wirelessly tracks (in real time!) exactly how your home is using energy.

Now you can identify which appliances and usage patterns are costing you – and pushing up your power bills!

Most likely via bluetooth or wi-fi from the smart meter.

Aurora energy here has a similar app.
https://www.energymagazine.com.au/aurora-launches-new-energy-usage-app/

Although we dont use it as our solar system has similar capability via wifi from the inverter. 

Its really cool to be able to message someone when you see from the office that they have left the bathroom tastic heating on.....

this is what a full daily chart looks like...



And yeah, I know what every spike is....

To get back on track -

Bought a take away cup of coffee today.

Ignoring the fact that their "large" was probably less than 200ml, the cup was labelled as not being made from paper. Instead it was apparently made from plant pulp.

I'm no scientist but I always thought paper was made from plant pulp. ???

And, .....

With experts telling us we should be eating more "whole" food and less processed food, why are highly processed vegetarian imitation meat patties deemed healthier than a lump of steak?

Lets try and keep it somewhat to topic and without the jibes at members directly or in code.

Ok,
I got a Question.
Who's good at treading on Egg Shells?
Hmmm, I know I'm not, but apparently I have to know how too.
Just had a meeting, about protocols and my responsibilities regarding dealing with tenants, have another meeting later in the week with an othet Real Estate mob.
This whole offended movement is, IMO getting out of control.
 If you thought OH&S was a pain in the arse, this Shit is going to make you want to curl up in a ball and such your thumb.

I hope this doesn't offend our Female Swaggers.
What TF, I am not to engage in any conversation outside of the work I am to perform, I am not to be over powering to female tenants.
Why, Some female tenants 'May have' escaped abuse, harassment and are feeling threatened by Males.
I asked, if on the Work Order it can be stated of any such issues that I may need to know.
Can not do that, it labels people.
The world has turned to Shit.
Sorry, this has rattled me & a couple other blokes this arvo.
Off to an RFS meeting now.

By public, do you mean public housing, or open to the general public?

How is DHS? Do they fix it back to the way it was?
