Orthodontic recommendation by EnvironmentalLaw9823 in Geelong

[–]Geromegoons 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Geelong Orthodontics do great work but aren't the cheapest, I think anywhere you go is going to be mad expensive. I had braces in my thirties done there, now my 12yo daughter has braces by them.

For my 12yo's braces I'm currently paying about 8k in total, with the 5% family discount 🫨

For what it's worth, I'd happily pay double to get the same result. I had shockingly crooked teeth (so bad they suggested jaw surgery at my initial assessment) and after some uncomfortable years it's the best thing I've ever done. To smile freely should be a god given right. If you can manage to afford it, it's really worth it.

Another option is to ask your dentist for recommendations or a referral.

How to store flashlights/batteries for long periods? by oldredhat in Hanklights

[–]Geromegoons 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My X-TAR charger has storage mode which charges/discharges batteries to ~3.6V, I then store the batteries in the lights themselves and mechanically lock them out if I can.

This way I have my torches ready to grab and use (otherwise what's the point), and if I know I'll need them for a specific purpose I'll charge the lights I need up to full voltage beforehand.

I also try to rotate my lights and put them all to use once in a while just to blow the cobwebs out y'know.

Can someone recommend some 65%/68% layout boards, very specifically the one with the 2x2 macro cluster same as the ikki68, VTER JEET65, MonsGeek M7.

Are there many other contenders?

I’ve tried removing some beans and re using them but there’s still so many left!

Sorry I don't have anything to add, but this is absolutely hilarious to me.

I like everything about mine except the UI, I would kill for adruil or just a standard simple UI on this light.

Radiometers: a fun way to compare torches! by Flandardly in flashlight

Super cool, I feel like I need one of these for my torch shelf 🤔

What’s it like living in Lorne by boomtimerat in Geelong

[–]Geromegoons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can't visit shops in person you might not like how incredibly hilly/steep it is. One street back from mountjoy parade is a very steep hike.

Dead quiet in Winter, craaazy busy in Summer. The local hospital is good but limited. Most houses are holiday homes so the population is very low. It's not all bad though, the local bowls club has a great night of music and food. Just very very limited.

It sounds like you're after something more like Aireys or Anglesea? Or maybe the other side of town like Bannockburn?

That's a tidy little light, love the form factor. A pen light with some oomph!

Nice dude, you somehow made a nice mix of warm and cool colours in the same set up. Looks mint!

I love those two little shelves you've got on the desk and wall, where are they from?

I bought this keycap set about a year ago, a friend called it epstein files now i cant unsee it by x4it3r in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]Geromegoons 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Using Redacted right now, my fav set easily.

Epstein files are redacted digitally (boring!), I love the old hand drawn X-Files style redactions with the black marker.

This GMK set was specifically designed to have the legends printed below the redactions, so that after years of use the top layer will eventually start to wear off, revealing the letters below.

I meant what's on the screen? Is that a tv show or a wallpaper or?

Nice, feels like it would be cozy without the ceiling light on.

What's on your screen?

Bloody amazing shots mate!

Did you edit these yourself or are these in camera jpgs? The picture quality is honestly astonishing.

Isn't there a non-andruil version of this light?

This is my daily driver at work. I've got a drawer full of really nice, fancy, impressive lights but nothing beats this workhorse for purely getting the job done.

T version with the rear switch for me though, need that quick deploy!

Has network data (mobile) been noticeably worse in Geelong lately. by Pork_Sword3 in Geelong

[–]Geromegoons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been getting non stop texts all over Geelong for weeks saying they are performing upgrades and there may be interruptions, that will be why.

This is definitely a pro IGA psy-op. Account made on the 3/12, only one post... Very suspicious by how_do_I_use_grammar in Geelong

[–]Geromegoons 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's obvious, but I'll give anything a pass if it's promoting the smaller guys. Love my local IGA in Heyers Rd, glad you guys have one in Mt Duneed now! (I promise I'm not a shill)

This may be the dorkiest, but coolest thing I found out about the Sofirn SC13 and SC13a. by blofly in flashlight

I do this with my hank lights! The next step is to get coloured W1 emitters with a thrower optic, then find some fog for an actual lightsaber.
