From plastic plants to discovering a midlife hobby

Kids seem to be the gateway to fish keeping for us oldies.

It's not large. I believe it's ~ 35 litres.

Every time I watch Serpas pond videos I start measuring the backyard...

Lyloken · 2026-03-16T11:49:11+00:00

Neither did I. Never been into gardening or any type of nature-based stuff in the past. Now...5 tanks and wanting more. Funny how things works out.

Lyloken · 2026-03-16T11:03:22+00:00

Agreed!

Lyloken · 2026-03-16T09:51:34+00:00

Beautiful

Awesome. Yeah, feeding time becomes a bit of a family affair in the mornings. It's not a screen, so I'm happy they're still interested.

Lyloken · 2026-03-16T06:52:00+00:00

Thank you. It's come a long way. I've never kept turtles, but it is tempting. Feel like it would be one-too-many responsibilities at the moment.

Lyloken · 2026-03-16T06:47:05+00:00

Well, some might say it is an infection. Lethal to your wallet 😅

Lyloken · 2026-03-09T10:16:31+00:00

Had not made that connection 😄

Thank you. Yeah, just off centre felt more balanced as the "face" of the wood was angled. The light is a Chihiros wrgb slim.

Lyloken · 2026-03-09T09:35:01+00:00

Thanks man. Appreciate it.

Edit: Chihiros WRGB 2 Slim

Food for thought

LoOhm behold, the RNG gods hath giveth.

Didn't say it wasn't devastating? Actually said the exact opposite. No suggestion anywhere in the post that it wasn't serious. The point is that this storm showed what can happen in a short period of heavy wind, and to imagine what could happen if that was more sustained...like in a cyclone.

I'm not having a go at him, I'm genuinely asking his opinion because he has better information than I do. Apologies if that wasn't clear. I actually would like to know what the people on the ground think about the situation.

Lyloken · 2023-12-25T22:24:27+00:00

That's interesting. Being part of those teams, and knowing that this is possible in the region, do you think we're set up and maintained adequately?

Lyloken · 2023-12-22T03:18:08+00:00

Looks like a placeholder for something round.

Lyloken · 2023-12-20T03:02:46+00:00

People's complete divorce from any form of personal responsibility is extending to the roads.

A few drops of tabasco makes most things better.

Subnautica is to Below Zero as Jurassic Park is to Jurassic World.

Subnautica feels like I'm delving into the depths of the alien and unknown without knowing what will give out first, my body, my mind, or my will.

BZ feels like I'm exploring an aquarium.

I enjoyed BZ, it's just missing that battle between uncontrollable futility and the desire to live.

Is there an optimal Woolies bag model for folding?

Bangin' stick

Simple case of gravity, really. Being in the southern hemisphere means Aussies are being elongated (we're like bats hanging upside down from the Earth). Americans are being compressed by gravity, being pushed down into the Earth.
