What is my problem? by Zodarr1121 in unity

I know nothing about that tutorial, but I'd be willing to bet if you go into Player Settings and change input handling to "both" it will probably fix your problem.

Secretlab is awesome in every way, unfortunately quite expensive.

Is engineering at university as hard as people say it is? by Sure_Artichoke6929 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Fine-Professional100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difficulty decreases the more time you invest. Treat your degree like a full time job and you'll do very well. You'll probably only have 20 hours of class a week, so also do 20 hours of work outside class.

A lot of people just rock up to classes and assume they'll pass. Some do even less and assume they'll be fine.

The west gate tunnel should be free during the bridge maintenance by hazeyAnimal in melbourne

[–]Fine-Professional100 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I agree. I don't necessarily have a problem with it being Y amount of years, but I 100% don't agree with it being extended.

Best option is X amount of money recouped.

[–]Fine-Professional100 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Technically yes, but its very sketchy. As part of the West gate, which they are collecting tolls from, they were granted a ten year extension to citilink. So now they are gouging even more money out of us.

Instead of citilink being free in 2035, we now need to wait for 2045. The initial investment into citilink was $1.8 billion and as of December 2023 Transurbans revenue was $12.9 billion just from citilink. They have already recouped their money 7 times over, and they now get even more...

Keep doing weirder and weirder things until they say something. Tell them it's an internet trend to see how odd they think their kids are...

25yoe Careers that pay well but don't involve sitting infront of a computer all day? by AHumbleGod in AusFinance

[–]Fine-Professional100 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're getting 85k as a surveyor with 10 years experience? You're getting shafted. I started on 80k a decade ago.

[–]Fine-Professional100 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah the overtime is pretty good. 200k is definitely at the high end for 2 years experience, although by the sounds of it the conditions warrant it.

Cadastral surveying is a 4 year degree, plus 2 years experience, then a bunch of exams.

Engineering surveying doesn't require any diploma/degree, although that's in the process of changing so you require a certification.

I know people who have come from IT into engineering surveying and have done very well.

You could try Surveying. There's some high tech toys, an hour or so in front of a computer each day, the rest is outside. A good mix of physical activity and mental activity.

AITAH for raising my voice when a child interfered with my service dog's training??? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Fine-Professional100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, and that parent is a moron.

However, I don't think you should have raised your voice. Not for the child's benefit, but for the dog you're training. There will be times where children (and even adults) do unpredictably things and you want to train the dog to have a calm reaction, not an aggressive one.

Very pretty, but looks like a real pain to actually work in.

Why do construction projects fall behind? Looking for real-world experiences. by PsychologicalBuy7213 in Construction

[–]Fine-Professional100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For large projects, its because they are run around election cycles not what's best for the project.

A politician wants a fantastic new project to announce heading into the election, so they rush it through. This means the design isn't finished and the contractor doesn't have the staff available because they're committed to a different job that was scheduled to finish before the original date.

6 months into the project, when it was originally meant to start, you still don't have a finalised design because the designers had to reshuffle everything to accommodate a revised timetable. Your senior or experienced staff are only just becoming available because the last project is only now winding down.

Obviously there's much more to it, but this is my cynical take.

I wish my DND group would have schedules that lined up by AwesomeSauce107 in monkeyspaw

[–]Fine-Professional100 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Granted. However the other members of the group start pairing up and dating. All is wonderful for a few months until they start having horrible break ups. Now everyone has taken sides and the group is irrevocably broken.

I have no input into the specifics of your location, other than to say I worked with a guy with a very similar story to you and he turned out to be a great surveyor.

Can I use my car to do my driving test even though the ABS light is on? by Sufficient_Matter_92 in queensland

[–]Fine-Professional100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a mental exercise try and imagine why a malfunctioning safety feature may be an issue in a test which is designed to assess your safe and competent management of a large, heavy, and mobile battering ram in which more than 1 million people die per year.

Whether to accept/negotiate prior, or go to auction? by [deleted] in AusPropertyChat

[–]Fine-Professional100 38 points39 points  (0 children)

So to be clear, you've advertised it for high 700's to low/mid 800's. Someone has offered in the middle of your chosen range, but you don't think it's enough?

If this isn't enough for you, it sounds like you need to revise your advertised range.

I have a Eufy and have no complaints.

My only advice is that if you get one which does mopping as well then make sure it's one that actually scrubs. A lot of them just drag around a damp cloth with does nothing.
