  14. 的士司機認濫收車資4罪判社服令、罰款3,000 案情指凌晨載過海索逾倍車資

    48 歲的士司機涉於 2025 年 8 月,向扮成顧客「放蛇」的警員濫收車資、行駛期間沒展示的士司機證。他承認「收取超過訂明收費率的的士租用費」等 4 罪,周三(31 日)在東區裁判法院被判 160 小時社會服務令,以及罰款 3,000 元。官指被告有兩次同類型紀錄。

    案情指,被告凌晨在中環威靈頓街接載警員到尖沙咀,曾稱「咁夜又要過隧道,三百蚊,你睇吓可唔可以」。而駕駛期間他未有按下計程錶,最後收取了 300 元車資。該段車程約 8 公里,標準收費應為 142 元。

  19. 💡 Automating Laptop Charging with a Simple Timer

    Tired of #overcharging your #laptop #battery? I found a simple way to control charging cycles using a programmable digital #timer!

    🔌 Setup:

    I programmed my Electraline 58102 timer to turn on power for one hour every five hours (e.g., 00:00-01:00, 05:00-06:00, etc.).

    This keeps my battery between 20% and 80%, extending its lifespan without any extra software or smart plugs.

    ✅ Works automatically, no scripts, no extra hardware!

  22. There is a pattern with companies selling services and products in Australia.

    The ACCC is suing Optus over alleged unconscionable conduct.
    Its Mount Isa store preyed on vulnerable consumers, accumulating debt in excess of $150,000 for 42 individuals.

    AGL has been ordered to pay a $25 million fine over a Centrepay scandal that saw it overcharging vulnerable people on welfare without their knowledge. AGL may appeal the fine.

    Supermarkets, airlines and power companies are charging ‘exploitative’ prices despite reaping record profits
