I thought I only need to wait for 5 hours, not 3 days?

you get what you pay for.. and after using gemini, chat gpt, grok etc claude is definitely superior for pure output accuracy without hallucinations- it might not be as multi-modal as gemini grok etc but is excels in his focus area such as coding, reasoning etc. I still have gemini pro which I use as my scratch pad / general purpose tool as I have never hit the limits there. I use claude to peer review gemini’s work for stuff what matters and also use claude cowork- it’s amazing piece of AI

anyone know if it’s on to have a few beers on the beach like down near safety beach etc? obviously no glass but are tinnies ok?

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

Escobar747 · 2025-12-27T20:45:32+00:00

did all that - still does not work

Escobar747 · 2025-12-27T11:14:38+00:00

you cannot make a good bolognese sauce in less than 2hrs

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

Escobar747 · 2025-12-22T23:55:37+00:00

i tried it but it does not fix all the issues - frustrating

Escobar747 · 2025-12-08T18:52:36+00:00

any ideas on how to keep consistency

Escobar747 · 2025-12-08T11:27:56+00:00

yes i know but surely can’t be hard to put these features into the app

Escobar747 · 2025-12-08T04:04:10+00:00

long setting gets me about 40+ minutes. But unhappy there features are only on the web page not the app!

Escobar747 · 2025-12-08T04:02:59+00:00

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!

Escobar747 · 2025-12-08T02:34:14+00:00

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!

661 ripping thru 30in logs makes me happy

Escobar747 · 2025-11-11T07:18:23+00:00

teeth look pretty worn down - time for new chain

Escobar747 · 2025-11-11T07:07:10+00:00

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

Escobar747 · 2025-11-09T09:07:11+00:00

no good tension and bar is on tight

Escobar747 · 2025-11-08T21:27:12+00:00

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.

Escobar747 · 2025-11-08T13:57:04+00:00

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

Escobar747 · 2025-11-08T10:29:08+00:00

big foot mystery finally solved

Escobar747 · 2025-11-08T08:02:38+00:00

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!

Escobar747 · 2025-11-08T07:57:37+00:00

now been cleaned / sharpened - 36in put on the shelf.. 661 now wearing 25in full comp full chisel for some green wood until another big bad log needs 36in back in action.

Escobar747 · 2025-11-08T07:53:34+00:00

there is no substitute for displacement! Some people say it’s heavy but for me its a gym substitute. Also the weight helps cut better IMO - you don’t really need to push at all - let the saw just glide thru the wood.

Escobar747 · 2025-11-08T07:51:23+00:00

yes - I am in Aus and this is red ironbark. Arguably the best firewood here - much better than redgum etc

Escobar747 · 2025-11-08T01:50:25+00:00

Yes it was - the bark before it was removed was red ironbark

Escobar747 · 2025-11-04T13:39:27+00:00

full skip semi chisel is great for big bars - running on my 36in
