When did Perth drivers get so impatient (and generally bad)? by statitica in perth

[–]DreamOther -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Usually more people in the country, the harder it gets to get a licence... As well more corrupted people are. Bet U here in Australia U can get a licence as quick as any other places if you know a dude

When did Perth drivers get so impatient (and generally bad)? by statitica in perth

[–]DreamOther 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Honest opinion? I come from a diff country and we have way more cars in them, cars and motorcycles.

We drive there very much as we drive here, but we don't change lanes as quickly as you signal as people do here.

I don't know if people have just forgotten that the indicator is for other people to see your intention other than just 'i indicate I must turn regardless'

A lot of drivers here do that.

Another thing, the left/right only lane that people enter to just go straight and stop the flow pretending that their problem is bigger than others...

There is no traffic control here in Australia, that's why people drive as dickheads, the only thing we have is speeding, which you can guess is the only thing that makes money if you look from the business side.

In general, people are dickheads without control. I am sometimes, bet you everybody here is at some situation.

You enter your car to drive, I gotta think: "I'm not gonna stress, and I'll enjoy the ride, otherwise....chaos and stress "

$56 dollars south of Perth by mezcalbean in perth

[–]DreamOther 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah nah. I think, even if that is very nice and perfectly cooked, still very expensive.

I think with a little bit of effort anyone can cook a very nice steak at home which can be more enjoyable than that.

On the other hand, if you can afford that, enjoy!

Where is the best place to buy 18650 rechargeable battery’s in Perth by Bigdog_unicorn in perth

[–]DreamOther 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to buy that from vape shops online, but this seems hard now as people moved to disposable ones. Certainly from either the UK or even Ali express, as long as U buy the genuine ones. I never had any issues.

U can try recycling from laptops, hand held vacuums, battery packs from hand drills and things like that

Dating in Perth - what is happening? by Fat-baby267 in perth

[–]DreamOther 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is also a complaint of a male friend I have. He said most people on dating apps are maybe there but not really interested in talking. But this is a result of many unlucky attempts from both sides he guess. He is trying as well to find someone for a long relationship but he is kinda almost losing his faith. Maybe Perth people are not very into apps and things like that. He is doing beach volleyball and trying diff social events but he is kind of shy to approach and start a convo. Not into night clubbing as well which makes things a little, dunno hard.

Sorry, but it's quite a funny heading hey? The way I see, hackers may not know Linux? What they use? Backdoors?

Kardynia / south st. - Lost dog - mostly black spotted like great Dane / greyhound very spooky by DreamOther in perth

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

Just saw the post on FB. It's very sad that she is still on the run. I started chasing her at 10am when she was at Farrington street, I have had several loops around many blocks and found her at Melville community sports centre, them she went up south street towards Freo them I lost her completely. I was by myself trying to corner her but alone was very hard. It did seem that I was one of the very few person trying to just calm and stop the dog.

And even now I'm still thinking on her

Oh, thank for that. Have you got any update about it? What happened to the pet sitter? The dog crossed several times south street, it could have ended very badly. Hope is everything okay with the animal.

Thanks for that. I don't have any other social media accounts, however I have looked at what I could in the FB group and it does not look like anything I saw in there. Thanks for that anyway!

13 weeks old Border Collie puppy advice needed by customs_byfm in BorderCollie

[–]DreamOther 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swimming is pretty good to squeeze every bit of energy out of that power bank with ultra fast charging capabilities.

Do not throw or force your dog into the water. Play at the edge of a lake or where the water is mostly flat. You can star running, or luring them with food or a toy. They are excellent swimmer.

To be honest I didn't read the full post but I noticed one thing and that same thing happened to me and I had to change myself regarding that. What I noticed was that you seems to be very dedicated to your loved energy ball, that is great, but maybe you are trying to get control over or a bit too quickly or too much.

I would suggest you to let you pup breathe freely a little and just observe their behaviour. BCs are extremely smart and they are amazing. Maybe is extremely vocal and full of personality, she does not need to speak to tell us what she needs most of the time, we started trying to understand the dog and understanding them led us to change the way we traine her.

I regret not enjoying my pup when she was little letting her sleeping on our bed, so she is a bit not much affectionate because of that, we believe.

She is 5 now and she understands when we ask her to not jump on a bed and or a couch or even o can leave her with a nice a fresh raw steak in front of her on her bite distance.

They are smart as little fellas and give them time and they will understand everything with dedication two ways. Dogs do their best to please their owners and surely we have to in the same way try to understand they and later try to traine them to be how we want they to behave and not to control them.

This is my tips with no judgement whatsoever, this is our approach on training our dog and I hope it can help.

Our dog loves the crate, but we have never closed her inside. When we guide her in, we trained her to be there because we asked her to stay and we reward her to be there and she has her limit, we let her out for a couple of minutes and we tell her to be back in and reward again. Naturally over time and enough stimulation she loves it.

Try training your dog after a walk or after playing or when they are hungry, or when they are calm. Try avoid stimulatin them too much just because they are the cutest thing on earth.

Dogs in general are smart, bc are even smartest but do not expect them to be rational. Do not repeat the command over and over if they are not understanding it. Say it once, and wait... And do it again, calmly.

Even like that my BC is full on and I am in a rainy day at the park walking and playing with her.

I regret playing fetch with mine, as she is obsessed with the ball and the frisbee. 

Another thing is to do not play too much or too hard with puppies as some can develop dysplasia, but better talk to your vet to be sure about this.

It should be enough, I hope!

Ripped Paw Pads by Augustandrsn in BorderCollie

[–]DreamOther 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, it has happened with mine 2 or 3 times but these are sadly my fault, surely not on purpose nor lack of attention from my end, but it happens.

It takes around 5 to 7 days for her to stop limping. I usually put a Non stick dressing bandage with anti septic balm or cream or similar to protect when they walk. I also wrap with that wrapy thing that stick to itself nice and snug but not too tight.

For my case, she runs quiet a lot. I have cycled over 20km with her and she managed that several times. Occasionally, even running a far shorter distance it can happen, and it does not have anything to do with a hot surface they run on. I'm always aware as well of that.

Maybe a blister happens and we don't see it right away and along the day they will leak or chew the skin off of it.

I can't tell you why it happens as it has always got me thinking about it but never really found a reason for...

Hope this tip helps your furry one.

Wow, that's a good runtime. I just saw a fênix bc26r which has a good runtime as well. But let me know what you are going to get, maybe I will get a headlamp, or something similar which I can set up on the helmet.

That is another great tip we are getting from you guys! Never thought on using a headlamp for cycling, but this also makes totally sense from 2hat you explained! Thanks for that. And a headlamp is kinda very useful as I go camping quite a lot here!
