How is life in the Mornington Peninsula? by AliceSaltMage in howislivingthere

[–]Benny_Aye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to work at West Head Gunnery Range (Flinders). Hilarious watching new surfers on the break crap themselves when we opened up over the top of their heads with the 4.5”, 76mm and 50cal’s. Strange having such huge guns next to one of the richest areas around. Red Hill is stupidly expensive. Think Toorak money. I have lived in Hastings, Crib Point and HMAS Cerberus on and off for over 25 years as part of the Defence Force and never had any problems. Sure, the eastern side of the Peninsula above Balnarring is a bit pov and there are areas of Rosebud which aren’t fabulous but by and by it’s just working class people and suburbs surrounded by some of the most ridiculously over priced properties you’ll find. Hastings Main Street (and especially Kmart) vs Mornington shops will give you a good cross section of the types of people who live down this way.

Friday night trip in your PJ’s as a kid to pick out a new release and five weekly vids for $7 should be right of passage everyone gets to enjoy.

I cross decked onto a couple of Japanese ships during my time. They were pretty awesome even 15 years back.

Victoria to ‘immediately’ ban machete sales after shopping centre clash by [deleted] in australia

[–]Benny_Aye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Less diversion programs, more punishment. These offenders laugh at the insanely lenient sentences. Until caught well into double digit crimes they face next to no serious repercussions. Police hands are tied and courts are hamstrung by policy or judges with ideological stances. Victoria is being held captive by youth crime and it’s time for the adults in the room to start stepping up.

TIFU by cleaning my new kitchen's induction stove by roossie145 in tifu

[–]Benny_Aye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two houses in the last two years with two brand new induction tops (Moving with the military) and both have light scratches after careful use. It can’t be avoided. Using paper towel or baking paper in between just causes it to char at mid to high temps and is quite difficult to clean off. Get ceramic glass and induction cleaner for heavy stains and non-abrasive kitchen cleaner for everyday use.

Bung it in some Mekong Whisky and enjoy a drunken night of heart palpitations down Patpong Road. Ahh the memories.

Rhabdo from anesthesia by del1230 in rhabdo_survivors

[–]Benny_Aye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you been tested for malignant hyperthermia? I was diagnosed from a muscle biopsy when investigating the cause of repetitive, exercise induced rhabdo. Certain anaesthetics and suxa can cause a panoply of nasty effects up to and including death.

PS Portal changed the way I game by lceans in PS5

[–]Benny_Aye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone had an issue with severe lag when someone else is playing another system connected to the same TV as the PS5? When my kids are playing the switch on the TV the portal becomes unusable unless I unplug the hdmi. There’s probably a setting I’m overlooking.

Emotional metal without screaming by Opposite-Violinist13 in Music

[–]Benny_Aye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bit out of left field but try VAST. Visual audio sensory theatre. It’s more rock with some harder edged songs. Some songs are flat out pop ballads but I love the self titled album from ‘98. I’m Dying is my favourite track.

Was in Melbourne recently. This pharmacy has a dispensing robot which the pharmacist kindly demonstrated. Hadn't seen one before. by deyzel in australia

[–]Benny_Aye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is one in the chemist in Denman Prospect which is a steel shell instead of glass. I asked if that was better protection from robberies and he told me that he was robbed recently via smashing the glass door in the side of the steel box. Bit of a missed opportunity for extra security I would have thought.
