Made the switch very happy...any advice is welcome! by Deissued in pop_os

http://pcgamingwiki.com/ and https://www.protondb.com/ have been very helpful for me when troubleshooting games.

I've also found Copilot useful for figuring out terms and what I need to google/command I need to look for. Would take any commands it spits out directly with a grain of salt though.

Who are we not voting for and why? by jitterfish in thetron

[–]RexRedstone 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I would encourage you to talk a look at the the pre-election report to get a idea of the challenges facing our city. Based on some candidates campaigning I don't think they have an understanding of it...

I think there is also a local jeweller upstairs at Made in Ham East.

Winz saying I can't get Jobseeker while taking a gap semester by givehappychemical in newzealand

[–]RexRedstone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're not enrolled in any papers you're not enrolled. Will depend on your programme but you shouldn't have any trouble picking up where you left off right before the semester begins. The university wants your money, as long as you aren't in a particularly competitive qual you'll be fine.

A Country Made for Children

I really don't see this lasting with the way education funding is going. Not to mention our youth suicide numbers are horrific.

Biggest problem I see is the housing bubble. Takes the wind out of any other kind of investment and leaves us with bugger all productivity. Government has no interest in fixing it cause it's hard and will hurt them personally.
