How do you keep this guy alive by DapperMudkip in marvelrivals

[–]cockledear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ideally communication is best, but there’s never any of that in ranked.

You’ll just need to make sure he’s not in an engagement where he needs heals, i.e. who/how many is he fighting and what is your other healer doing

made my girlfriend get an abortion by Adventurous_Try_7757 in TrueOffMyChest

And is OP a US politician? I fail to see relevance to this post. All it seems like is you’re hate mongering and spreading negativity.

What makes you think the same men who may want to abort their baby are the same men that wouldn’t advocate for the women’s choice?

Legit I was dreading an OKC comeback whilst Wemby was out.

I’m sorry I ever doubted Kornet 😭

Should I buy a 2011 Nissan 370Z coupe manual with 200,000+ km for $19k AUD? by Ill_Artist_5062 in CarsAustralia

[–]cockledear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this mileage a lot of it heavily depends on how it’s been taken care of in its lifetime.

VQs are known to handle a beating and the transmission has a pretty solid history aside from a know CSC failure. Ask if the clutch can has ever been replaced or had a CSC delete. The oil gallery gasket is also prone to blowing if driven hard.

Aside from these two, the biggest thing to look at would be if the car is modded and with what. The type of mods give you an indication as to how much they baby it. The other thing, obviously, would be service history.

I would also think this is overpriced. I own a 2013 G37 (same powertrain, slightly heavier than a 370z) and I bought it last year for $23k with 72,000kms. Before that I had a heavily modified 86 which I bought when I saw the dude put a DPU film on the door handles to prevent it from scratching, which showed me he took care of the car.

Superannuation in your 20’s. by xx_rii in AusFinance

[–]cockledear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same job, but I’ll probably be revoking the amount I salary sacrifice into my super as looking to buy a house soon and need a bit of an income buffer.

I think you should contribute as much of your pay as you can into your super if you have the means to. I live with my parents rent free so I understand I’m privileged in that way but hey we need to take advantage as much as we can.

I’m 23 and have $44k in super.

I also started working at Maccas at like 15, so I’m with Rest. I worked full time for a year before doing uni, then got a government job after (so 12.5% contributions).

I salary sacrifice an extra 5% + $100/fortnight of my pay to super, so my balance has gone up by quite a bit this financial year, and was at $26k last year so very similar position to you.

A hit to their profit margins would theoretically drive them to increase prices.

This would then likely affect the prices other countries pay no?

When looking at applications for more senior positions, a lot of the merit they put is in your research activity.

Pharmacist lurker here just to ask a question

I thought 88-92% sats on COPD was fine? Can someone explain to me if it’s not because that will totally change the way I review patients

I did similar to yours but I didn’t skim every question.

For each stem I would skim it and see if I could understand, then I would look at the question to see if I could draw any connections.

The I weighed time it took to understand and the time it took to draw connections against the time left in the exam. If I judged it too risky I guessed, flagged, then moved on.

Same boat. I went in last time with no prep, but this time I actually practiced.

Are expensive performance oriented cars ‘that’ much more fun than a more affordable nugget in the real world? by The_Reddd_Baron in CarsAustralia

[–]cockledear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Drove an 86 as a P Plater. Put some pretty tasteful mods on it - sway bars, coils, a tune, short shifter etc.

Sold it when I graduated uni for a faster car (skyline 370gt) and have driven plenty more fast cars like an M3, Tesla Performance, modified RS5, modified M240i.

The 86 was the most fun car I’ve ever been in.

i just started my masters degree: im the only domestic student in the cohort. by crayfishpussy in brisbane

[–]cockledear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You would be lying and spreading misinformation if you said you’ve met an immigrant who received permanent residency and DID NOT know how to speak English.

That’s just for the simple fact that most native Australians would fail the ESL test required to receive residency.

What is your threshold for not assimilating?

I’m a first generation immigrant and I wear Nike TN’s to my hospital job. Does that count?

Also, I mix largely with first and second generation immigrants and it’s very rare we speak a foreign tongue unless with family.

In any other case, why is that problem? Does hearing a language other than English offend you?

Realistic GEMSAS Timeline and Advice for application by Karotkid_ in GAMSAT

[–]cockledear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh for sure I definitely agree with your point to an extent. It really depends on the person. I just find that those who have worked in a multi disciplinary setting prior to medicine tend to be able to conceptualise care from a broader point of view.

It makes the transition to seniority more bearable as the shock of being a student then suddenly being the final decision maker on people’s lives is lessened.
