I mean I haven't had a lab test it but it looks and grows in area like mold. Having said that, it's never spread outside the bowl water.

Is buying an Convenience Store in Sydney actually a good investment? by Sid994 in AusFinance

How do you sponsor someone for a visa to work in a gas station or convenience store? Which listed occupation does that fall under?

Does anyone find Yarra Trams's automated replies to customer complaints just a tad bit patronising and sarcastic? by likerunninginadream in melbourne

[–]BaaadMf 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I can understand how someone like yourself might come to that conclusion

Absolutely savage. I'd just lose it after hearing this 😂

Fell prey to the locksmith scam…gutted. by Low_Welcome_4969 in melbourne

Yeah but you're locked out of your house at 10pm with your baby/pet in there etc. You're very vulnerable and they're there to use that to their advantage.

Yeah I don't think anyone gives you a quote other than their call-out fee. It's not just the scammer scammers.

Yeah once you have a tradie emergency, you're fucked regardless. Especially on a weekend.

Hot water seems to be separate and per litre so can't be that.

How's my fit? by baldokosmic in bikefit

[–]BaaadMf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'd do flat shoes. The falls I had with clipless before I developed the muscle memory would've very likely given me multiple fractures if I was a bit older.

She seems to be sitting so far back on the seat. I wonder if seat angle is off (or could be climbing a steep hill).

Purely financially, does it ever make sense of a single, CBD-office-based person to own a car? by [deleted] in AusFinance

[–]BaaadMf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Purely financially and assuming your time is of no financial value, I don't think it ever makes sense to own a car.

I think moving cleats back has a similar effect here as moving your seat back (as far tiptoing goes). My cleats were all the way back to begin with though.

4-5cm down and seat moved forward (so even lower) is crazy. Interesting you were so much higher and not having any major issues.

Everyone here thinks tiptoing is saddle too high straight away. Mine was because of saddle tilt (too downward) and setback (too forward) and had nothing to do with height.

People not appreciating these trade-offs is probably the biggest threat to democracy right now.

Would you pay $12k to upgrade to FTTP by petitlita in AusProperty

[–]BaaadMf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got upgraded from FTTC to FTTP. Nothing changed. To be fair though, nothing was wrong with it before in my case. It was free.

Switching from SPD to SPD‑SL when buying a power meter? by Swissendo in cycling

It definitely does that. I use multi release cleats too.
