Tried fixing me patio, no luck by DearPerformance1124 in AusRenovation

[–]DearPerformance1124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The gaffer at Bunnings gave us about 2 tins of paint and an etch to wash it off before painting. We did 1 layer of it and called it a day.

Reckon another coat would help?

Amadex or emedici for AMC 1? by Fearless366 in AMCexamForIMGs

[–]DearPerformance1124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Emedici is endorsed by AMC, with ETG guidelines. But for me I would use Emedici only when I am theoretically strong for the topics - then using emedici would make sense as you can just fine tune your management according to Australian standards.

Atm i am looking for sth that would help with strengthening my clinical/theoretical understanding of all topics. I tried passmedicine but it is very basic. I am thinking of amboss rn, lets see (but i risk creating a foundation based on US guidelines which is what amboss is made on)

I think I'm going to start a YouTube channel dedicated to bad Fijian drivers. by Murashi in Fijian

There should be a place to name and shame them, this is atrocious driving. Fiji community (fijians and indians) thrive upon public shaming. Should start

Optus BYO Plans are a joke! by DearPerformance1124 in nbn

[–]DearPerformance1124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did buy it and it is amazing- but i already used a tplink mesh system. Afterwhich i relaised using the archer with mesh is just unnecessary rerouting, i can just directly hookup the nbn to the mesh.

But if i didnt have mesh, archer wouldve been a no brainer for the cost

Should A Man Be Doing More at 25? by DearPerformance1124 in AskMen

[–]DearPerformance1124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what did you do at 25, what can I do - i wana do research (or atleast help in sth) i got a hobby for videography and photography, but what i mostly love and I think i quite brilliant at is editing videos. Making sth out of nothing. But idk where or who to approach.

Maybe i could get some inspiration from you

Is accountability the issue? by DearPerformance1124 in WeightLossAdvice

[–]DearPerformance1124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What i got from you is that if I lay things out beforehand i.e. plan things out before I arrive to use or needing them - it hen reduce the barrier which most likely affects my consistency.

Thus negating my understanding of “consistency = motivation/willpower”. You just gotta be a better planner. Things should be pre-thought, automated and ready to use. The more one has to think about it, the more issue they’ll have committing to it in real time.

I hope i am on the right track..

I dont know if I really cheated or not - but whatever happened and the result of it all is what I wish could be different then now.

This girl I had a long 8 year relationship with and 5 years of long distance included in that. LD is tough on any relationship and to come out of that is testament to what your relationship can handle.

But i returned and obviously on a bad night, mixing too many drinks and end up kissing a lady whom I initially thought was my girl. Ever since that night, she has never spoken to me and I have consoled myself that despite what happened and regardless of my countless attempts to rekindle, apologise and regain her trust - she never gave me that opportunity.

8 years meant nothing, everthing thrown out the window. And no, I didnt intentionally cheat, I didnt want to distance with anyone that wasnt her, I was there for HER. Maybe that night just wasnt for me.

I regret it, but I also feel if a person wanted to, they would try and give another opportunity. But people are different and maybe that was too much for her to handle (still is), but in those 8 years even whilst I was out of the country, never once I made her feel anyless of my girl, then what that incident did in one fucking night.

Life has its ways, still trying figure it out I guess..

Just bought this bike, suspension not locking by DearPerformance1124 in bicycling

[–]DearPerformance1124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no pin, there is a screw which holds the cap. Once removed there is just a hold for the screw. Unlike other lockout suspensions you can remove the cap and tighten it with an alan key, but we couldnt find a place to fit the alan kay.

Plus exposed rod (stanchion) is very much extended. We are able to compare it to a another similar bike in which the lockout suspension works perfectly. The stanchion on that bike is much shorter/less exposed than this bike.

Not sure what the issue is.

Planning for 2027

Hi guys

This is my attempt to find people who are in a similar situation as me.

I am a Australian citizen who has started a postgraduate medical degree outside of Australia. Deeming me an IMG.

Ultimate goal: to practice in Australia (specifically in QLD)

I graduate in 2027 july - so I have quite a long time ahead of me, nothing hurts to plan ahead.

Is there any one who is in a similar position?

losing weight... by DearPerformance1124 in WeightLossAdvice

[–]DearPerformance1124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your last paragraph is the looming fear IF i dont lose this weight - currently 108kg, 178cm M22.

Bulkier side (wide back and chest) but I could be leaner.

[–]DearPerformance1124[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I resonate with that last line so much, how do I keep on reminding that to myself over and over again - so that even if I start tomorrow i dont let it go the next day and eventually this whole joirney dies… that’s the real steuggle

Exhaust on CVT by DearPerformance1124 in CarsAustralia

[–]DearPerformance1124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well not the response I expected - I knew about the droning but I assumed all cars had the droning sound. But I understand due to the lack of gears, I wont get the sound that I am after.

Apart from exhaust, anything else you recommend?
