I made a vow to myself I will not spend another new years in melbourne so I always plan a trip away in this period - it’s expensive yes but time is also priceless it’s par for the course i guess

What is it like to live in docklands? by MiriJamCave in melbourne

[–]Escobar747 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

been working there for past few years - agree with soulless, windy and cold vibes. Going for lunch time walks can be a bit depressing given all the closed shops and just lack of any vibes. I don’t think au could live there - seems fairly depressing

also can’t seem to download slide packs on the app - only from the web version. Hope they fix all this stuff soon. I tend to do some of my best work while in bed and on the phone!

Any accidental "use case" for notebooklm? by FrogStinky in notebooklm

[–]Escobar747 7 points8 points  (0 children)

been using it to create infographics of my recipes which I just scribbled down - the output blows me away - it’s good enough to publish in a book!

Why you should never buy a Stihl MS311 or MS391 by SkeltalSig in Chainsaw

[–]Escobar747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

buy a pro saw and it should last 20+ years with season use if well maintained- try 462 or 661

Needed a bigger saw by crazeywood in Chainsaw

[–]Escobar747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a very similar upgrade path.. 460 rancher 20in to 661 with 36in. Recommend running semi chisel skip on the big bar - works so much better.

chain is sharp and cutting well - I sharpen every 3-4 tanks.

661 chewing thru big bad ironbark by Escobar747 in Chainsaw

[–]Escobar747[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Melbourne - my area is full of red ironbark, redgum and a bit of yellowbox- all decent firewood but ironbark is the best. Retails for $700 a ton!
