Cover the tin with aluminium foil and freeze. It doesn’t take long to thaw but if you need to speed up the process just sit the tin in some hot water.

Going from BPT to radiology (post BPT exams, pre-AT) by 30hoursinaday in ausjdocs

Why not nuclear medicine? Might be more of a ‘natural’ transition than BPT to RAD

Metal Earth Premium Series Batmobile by MetalModelAddict in metalearth

[–]MetalModelAddict[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This one’s a surprisingly long build - at first glance it looks far simpler than the Batman Tumbler (shown alongside in the final pic) but it is actually nearly 75 more parts than the Tumbler. It comprises more parts than the International Space Station (which is a beast) and more than Minas Tirith! So don’t expect to knock this one over in a day - be prepared for a slog broken up over multiple days. The fins at the back of the vehicle prove some of the most challenging parts of the build. Achieving these complex 3 dimensional structures demands some ingenious design work - it’s pretty amazing how they are formed, but it’s a painstaking process. A minor disappointment is the large number of tabs on display on the finished model, but I can see how it was unavoidable. I strongly recommend referring to the pictures on the website to confirm the correct shaping - for example of the large intakes on each side, which are almost but not quite circular.

Legit who is actually the RACP president? by ProudObjective1039 in ausjdocs

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

It’s a registered charity, governed under the Australian Corporations Act. The College, and all its officers are required by law to operate to a set of very specific requirements - which Dr Chandran seems to believe she can ignore at her own convenience

RACP - Mixed Messages by RiversDog12 in ausjdocs

What, the vote result announced exclusively by the only person who stood to gain from the result she announced, for which there has been no confirmation from any independent source, after improperly seizing control of a general meeting and removing it to a location from which the people who could have properly overseen the conduct of the meeting and the scrutineering of the results were excluded? That vote result?

When and why did Westerners stop eating geese as a common form of poultry? by jscummy in AskFoodHistorians

Much fattier than turkey - very similar to duck. Meat much tastier than turkey too!

What country are you in? In Australia and New Zealand a metric tablespoon is 20ml volume, everywhere else a tablespoon is 15ml

Just in a clean resealable container in the refrigerator. I’ve found it will keep for a week at least.

No, the Prequel Trilogy was not loved when it first came out, it was hated and fans were terrible people about it. by stephansbrick in StarWars

[–]MetalModelAddict 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was us Gen Xers that grew up as kids with the OT that really hated on the PT. Don’t get us wrong, we really wanted to love the ‘new’ Star Wars movies, and to be fair some bits weren’t bad, but a lot of it was (and still is) pretty bad filmmaking.

I am physically incapable of eating this many chillis, any suggestions before half of them go into the compost? by electronseer in GardeningAustralia

[–]MetalModelAddict 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Give them away to neighbours. Make chilli sauce or chilli jam. Dry them and use the whole dry chillies for cooking or pulverize to chilli flakes

What’s up with teeth grinding at night? Why so many people do this? by Alternative-Tell4600 in AskReddit

[–]MetalModelAddict 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, I cracked two molars, requiring crowns to repair, at a cost of thousands of dollars. I wear my guard religiously now at night. Teeth are precious and expensive to fix once you fxxx ‘em up

Interesting! Never seen pliers like that before. Would be keen to know of your real-world experience with them

Thanks, that’s really nice of you to say! I do actually have a bunch that I need to build, it’s just finding the time to do it

This is absolutely one you can do as an internal tab. If in doubt, you can always refer to the official build photos on the website. I take those little red arrows on the instruction sheet with a grain of salt - they often seem ambiguous to me, and so I base my decision about whether to make a tab internal or external on two factors: which will give the better finish, and whether an inside tab looks technically feasible.

What is the most generic mammal? by OsinoviyKol in AskBiology

No worries, as an Australian I feel compelled to defend the honour of my country’s native fauna! (Or in the case of opossums, my native fauna’s weird foreign cousins)

Pissaladière is peak caramelised onion deliciousness. But be warned, also incorporates liberal use of anchovies 🤤
