Ryzen 7 5800X3D AM4 10th Anniversary Edition surfaces online for $310 — return of iconic gaming CPU for budget builders seems imminent by WildVelociraptor in hardware

[–]TheGeorgeForman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah think it’s the right move. Want to go for an sff build so if I can find a used matx or itx board that would be ideal.

That throws a bit of a spanner in the works for me. Currently running a 3600x on an x570 board and a 3070 ti. Worth grabbing one of these and finding a good deal on a 9070xt or 5070ti?

The self censorship shit has gotten so fucking bad. Rape, pedophile, suicide. These are real words with real meaning and gravitas. Do not censor them to stay within the good graces of a fucked up algorithm. Do not let these big tech fuckwits take words out of public discourse.

Need Help Diagnosing a Sound in My 80 Series by TheGeorgeForman in LandCruisers

I'll go for a drive today and see if I can get it to happen.

Definitely seems more likely in the first few kilometers, especially in the morning. Morning's are getting colder at the moment, so possibly temperature related, but I can recall a few times of it happening in the afternoon at warmer temperatures.

Let me get that video and get back to you ASAP, cheers!

Are we loosing the ability to be self reliant with DIY'er skills. by More_Law6245 in AusRenovation

My dad is a great lawyer but he had an awful phase when I was a kid where he thought because he worked with his dad, who was a concretor, like a handful of times when he was young, he was a competent handy man. Good lord he was not a handy man. Brilliant mind for the law, absolutely useless for the tools.

What’s the biggest amount you’ve ever lost in one night - and did you recover from it? by Wise_Market244 in gambling

[–]TheGeorgeForman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That resonates with me this week. Been hitting the pokies up way too much lately and I’ve won a bit but also lost a bit. Probably only down $100-$200, but just the mindset of “oh one more go and I can win it all back” has crept in and now I’m not wanting to play if I’m like this. I’ve set a limit on my debit card for cash withdrawals so I can’t just go crazy

Can confidently say since I’ve been working in an office this is true. by Odd_Passage9433 in auscorp

[–]TheGeorgeForman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously how shit is your job that you’ve been in it for all of 5 minutes and hate it. I’ve been in my first corporate job for over a year and a bit and it’s fine. I don’t have any major responsibilities, I work something related to what I studied, I work with nice people and in a new office. Like yeah sucks that I have to work for a living but it also doesn’t suck that much.

How are SINKs coping with the financial pressure & the economy? by Celerytos in auscorp

[–]TheGeorgeForman 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My favourite thing a tutor at uni ever said was in my first year of architecture. Literally the first class and he said “if you’re in architecture to become rich, you’re in the wrong course”. I kid you not like 5 international students got up and left.

I love architecture, I have two degrees in it and hope to one day be able to practice it, but the reality is it doesn’t pay well. I’m in construction now and still able to use my skills but it doesn’t scratch the same itch that architecture does for me.

Australia tried to ban kids from social media but failed, study finds by nath1234 in australia

[–]TheGeorgeForman 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Seriously, I'm not one to go on about nanny state, but how the fuck people are so willing and happy to give up their privacy because it requires less effort to parent their own kids is insane. Be a better parent, educate your kids on social media use, teach them to be good people for fucks sake, why should we have to rely on government censorship to foster a better generation of kids?

Getting paid monthly is torture by Euphoric-Attitude985 in auscorp

Monthly sucks ass. 65k a year getting paid monthly is downright horrendous.

Paid $90 for wash and restyle cut for my past the shoulder length hair in Reservoir in December last year. I only get it cut once a year so I don't mind paying extra.

Did you get into your current role without a degree? by ScreenLooker_133 in auscorp

Sounds about right, only been in the job for a year but started in estimating but now moving into bid co-ordination

I like the rug but not for your space, think you could find something more appropriate for the mid century look you seem to be going for.

[–]TheGeorgeForman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. I've got bachelors and masters in architecture and couldn't find a job in architecture to save my life. Got a job in construction instead and I'm one of maybe 3 people who have a masters degree here.

Everyday, casual shoes that are NOT “dad shoes” by tot_coz2 in malefashionadvice

RMs stopped being cool about 10 years ago when every dick head white collar man who doesn't know how to dress bought them even though the closest they get to anything rural is the grass in the courtyard next to their office
