yeah nah. My grandmother was religious as fuck and she never said shit like "it's in gods hands" she just made a decision and if questioned said "Because it's the right thing to do you bloody drongo"
last one we had held half the cabinet positions.
eh waves hand winging them is fine
went in and out showing sparkies where things were and fucking hell this weather can fuck right off. This is 5am weather, not midday
if Nile goes I'm fucking building a bomb shelter library
w00t w00t brewery now on its own dedicated circuit and His Lordship can commence with the going of apeshitness.
I wrote a whole goddamn novel-sized autorespond in Polaris that triggered on an asl. I was a 96 year old tibetan yak farmer who was allergic to wool and hated the local monks. I used to pee in their milk until one day the abbot found out and beat me with his hat.
Either that or it started screaming about asexual lizards
Was mentioning this is the first house i've lived in that hasn't fucked me on a cold snap, and how when i woke up it was 20c and it stays 20c!!
Coworker overheard last part and tried to oppression olympics snipe me. Nosy bitch got a short, sharp lesson on exactly what growing up in a holmesglen concrete prefab special was like.
I ain't wearing guilt, i've done my fucken time and then some.
...mittens for my kittens?
the sadistic fuck! Have you tried a sternly worded letter?
standing offer of heating, bean bags , cats, landlord sniping, yadda yadda. I'll get the muffins on.
This is a discussion on the physical components and environmental impact of these units, not the health issues they cause.
I get you're upset, but i don't need to be unloaded on over it.
heating coil, chemical reservoir, battery? It's not like it's rocket science.
The biggest problem with these things is they use lithium batteries. That is not a single use item.
nah, that's one of the soaks, there's a whole system that runs down the eastern side of warragul down to mordi. Most of the springs were apparently in cheltenham, which is insane to me.
(fun fact: I used to spend the four hour break between tech C and accounting at TAFE whacking the shit out of golf balls at the driving range that used to be where the bypass is now. That whole park area was tip)
and today on "searches that will get me on a list"
Moorabbin was once renowned for its springs. I am randomly trying to find where they were. Unfortunately I am surrounded by goddamn car repair shops so guess what fucking comes up when you search "Moorabbin springs" so now I'm digging at hydrogeological data for the entire port phillip bay area to find the aquifers....
I got one of those chargeable hot water bottles. Basically a giant version of those reusable hand pocket warmers. Gamechanger
Casual lives rent free in my head running endless loops around pink pony and i love it
Ooommmgggg. I still gotta make mine, but considering making crumpets and muffins as well. The latter freeze real easy
How would you transition this?
Marble outdoor to internal hardwood. House built in the 60's and i just spent ages clearing up old carpet tack and cement some dickhead had slapped over the floorboards.
It's not even, but hangs around 3cm difference between flooring surfaces. The surrounding walls are original bullnose sideboards in spectacular condition, so would like to be sympathetic.
Ideas? Suggestions?
(Yes i'm treating the rot and putting in a moisture break between the cement and wood)
Linux GUI termserv
Due to hardware reqs we're tossing the idea at work to replace the Microsoft termserv with Linux. Due to the userbase being all windows fans we'd need a full on GUI and i've been prodded towards Mint. Good idea or bad?
I've happily set up a remote kunbuntu for my workspace previously, but accomodating multiple complete linux neophytes is giving me a bit of pause.
Bit more info: The current termserv is a debloated win10 machine with the multisession registry edit. However, it's on an R515 with proxmox (and running extremely well). Due to partner network requirements, we can't run depreciated software, and the box won't support win11, and frankly, I sat the boss down and asked him if he wanted to be microsoft's bitch for the forseeable future and junk serviceable hardware. He's absolutely up to getting on a linux ecosystem, but the graphical desktop environment is non-negotiable on his end.
**EDIT: ** Anyone else looking to run this system: https://www.apalrd.net/posts/2022/xrdp_intro/ Video link at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAllRma_0xc
Bulk buys
Stumbled across https://www.bulkbuys.com.au/ earlier today, has some good stuff if anyone's interested.
For anyone looking to retrofit SATA SSDs into internal Dell 3.5" bays....
Based on an r210 II I'm currently doing up
- Orico HB-325 3.5 to 2.5 inch Hard Drive Caddy - don't even bother. Could be useful in a CRU sled, but I don't have a dell one to hand.
- SilverStone SDP08B 3.5" to 2 x 2.5" Drive Bay Converter Getting better, but all four screws don't align in the dell caddy
- SilverStone SDP08B, 3.5" to 3 x 2.5" Drive Bay Converter Absolutely perfect.
random info I thought may be useful to others
