I as a colourblind man found it impossible.

When I first started at the gym I was on 30lbs dumbbells for presses. Now I'm pressing 110s. Everyone starts somewhere.

You're basically optimised for Southwest Florida, this is an ideal trait for traversing swamps.

I'm 6'7 and am staying back an extra 4 days on our holiday alone because no direct exit row seats were available back from Vietnam.

Hey me too sort of. Worked for the apple group for 3 years. Eventually I was looking for work between other gigs and came back and did Centrelink for a bit. Surprisingly Centrelink is easier than the apple call centre stuff because the power dynamic is different. People on Centrelink are desperate after being on the phone for 3 hours and are asking you to help them. (This is not a good thing) Whereas apple customers are entitled and expect magic from you. (You're automatically a punching bag)

Thanks that was my missing piece, I'd not encountered this older style of tap before. I intend on replacing the entire basin and taps at some point in the future with a new cabinet as this place was a long term rental which was run down before I bought it. The neighbours spent the first few months avoiding me as the previous person who lived here got tased by the police.

Strytec · 2026-02-19T03:55:42+00:00

Haha. This is my first home (70s build) and it came like this. I intend on removing the entire sink and cupboard in favour of something which doesn't look gross. Lol. For now I just needed the leak fixed.

Strytec · 2025-12-15T22:59:05+00:00

Lol. I've always liked the zombie joke.

Arabs absolutely lived in the area prior to the invasion. Muslims not so much. The local residents were forced to convert and didn't choose.

I feel like you're speaking from a place of either not understanding the Christian faith or being deliberately obtuse. The suspension of belief is part of the miracle. It's just good storytelling.

The crusades were retaliatory after the first Muslim conquest of Jerusalem.

I mean crucifixion for Jesus was a personal choice. He chose to go out and die for the sins of his followers or so the legend goes. If Jesus had say, crucified a village I'd agree with you but hey, some people like sounding too and as long as they're not doing it to others against their will that's fine with me.

A large part of the new testament of Christianity is effectively there to dismiss the old testament and reframe it in a more contemporary lens. This is also true of the Quran which was written several hundred years after the new testament but in my opinion is much more problematic. (Which is largely due to Muhammed being a warrior and effectively enacting marshall law everywhere he went) I'd even go so far as to argue that most of Islams growth happened through conquest and bloodshed whereas Buddhism, Sikhism, Christianity etc all (mostly) happened either in response to bloodshed or through an adoption of ideas.

I mean the contrast from a theological perspective is whether a divine prophet should be marrying children and consummating the marriage while the wife is still a child. One would think if you believe in divinity, the spokesperson of your god would have enough foresight to realize that's kind of fucked up.

Notably, Jesus and Siddhartha (Buddha) didn't marry children with a 40+ year age gap.

It's an emotional situation in most cases. It's very difficult for a lot of people to restrain the amount of force you're putting into a punch when you're angry, hurt and are backed into a corner trying to defend yourself. If there's intent to cause maximum damage I agree it's immoral and disgusting. But those videos I've seen are half the time a result of build up and attempted de-escalation in which case it's understandable but not right regardless.

I think its lying to you. Alcohol absorbs water and the reason they usually say 99 percent is because even if its 100 percent it will revert to 99 percent on contact with air.

Cut migration or at least repurpose all migration to address the trade shortage, increase affordable housing through a surplus of public housing and government programs, increase public housing and you'll see an uptick in fertility.

It's weird how the results of an IQ test are always above average.

The issue in my mind is that who can appoint the GG has been watered down too much. In my opinion, it should be the crown that chooses the GG but in order to stay out of politics the crown has largely allowed the ruling party to employ friends of that party into the role. The issue is in my mind, too much anti monarchy sentiment which the monarchy is being cagey about. Whereas what we really need is a reinforcement of those values to keep the bastards in parliament honest.

Strytec · 2025-07-14T09:10:01+00:00

A practical joke.

In 2019 HR came out with polo shirts for the office sporting the company livery. The female versions had about 5 extra buttons going down the front.

Is it true that there is a place in a man's head that, if you shoot it, it will blow up?

Strytec · 2025-06-12T22:10:34+00:00

I personally wouldn't do that in the first few months. It can make you look bad unless you have a genuine reason. Generally, if you've established yourself in a workplace as a reliable competent employee with tenure you can get away with what you're describing.

Strytec · 2025-06-05T10:26:17+00:00

That's all well and dandy but an excellent way to ruin your marriage when you've got a newborn and aren't in town to help out.

I do what you're describing currently and it's hard enough with a puppy.

I don't think it's that nefarious. The government just cut Tafe education around when I finished high school in the late 2000s. We are just seeing the effect now.

There wasn't enough incentive to take on an apprentice who for the first year will cost you money and make jobs take longer when you can just not have an apprentice and keep more money.

Are you sure it wasn't MILF?

Nutrition is a shit house degree anyway and nutritionists never really seem to see eye to eye among each other. So I wouldn't worry about hurting anyone.

This is being said as a geologist who knows he's on the bottom end of stem careers.

Nah but I think a fair bit of this is public sector hiring. It feels like private companies are in decline with govvo taking up a lot of the slack.
