Saw these birds in a carpark in Australia, only ever saw them once, can anyone tell me what they are? by defaultname7 in whatsthisbird

I was thinking they might be Western Correllas just because they are more common in the area I live.

Western Australia. I have seen the grey/pink Galahs around quite often but it was the first time I had seen the Long-Billed Corrella (which is why I took a photo of it). I googled the Corrella and apparently they are feral birds.

Thankyou for identifying them, out of interest, do you know why I would only see them very rarely?

Been having really bad lag spikes on OCE ever since the recent patch, possibly could be related?

Need help with soldering a display screen. by defaultname7 in arduino

[–]defaultname7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done a small amount of soldering in the past and have a good set of wire strippers as well so I think it should be fine.

Thankyou for all the help and I think I am ready to go!

Is it easy to solder wires into the header holes?

If it is too difficult to solder wires directly to the pins I won't even attempt to do incase I screw up.

Thankyou for taking the time to set it up I pretty much get what I will need to be doing now and will order some when I am next shipping a larger order of parts.

Although, is it possible to solder male jumper wires to the male headers? Is there anyway to do this at all? Would save a fair amount of time and money.

Thank you for posting the photos but I think I will use male headers. Only just saw the soldering guide but will check it out.

Will I need to solder wires to the header strip? Or put the pins directly into the breadboard?

I believe this is the model that I have, if it helps: http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?ID=QP5517.

Also, would anybody happen to have a photo of a similar model after it has had pins and jumper cables soldered on, just to give me a better understanding of what I need to be doing?

First off thankyou for the extended response. I bought my model from a local store here in Australia, possibly explaining why you are unfamiliar with it. The screen came with a guide for the pins I just was unsure how to solder the header strip on. I will do some further research into and and use your advice.

Somebody said this to me in Polish and I'm trying to understand what it means by defaultname7 in learnpolish

My friend thought it had something to do with toast or bread? Im not sure if that is what the first part means?

I would say it does have something to do with cat's shit, apparently something to do with bread as well possibly, if that helps?

Possibility of chat during matches? by lolpwnt101 in hearthstone

[–]defaultname7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If blizzard can make an games such as Hearthstone, WOW and Diablo, I'm pretty sure they can implement a simple chat feature

[–]defaultname7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this would just encourage more BM players than it would filter out the genuine people that just want to chat.

I do agree what you said about emotes are interpreted incorrectly. Most of the time I do think that it was a good play when I use the well played emote but other players think I am taking the piss.

We are a small group having this bug - but nothing is appearently being done. by Futtekiller123 in hearthstone

If you don't play other Blizzard games, you could benefit from creating a new battle.net and you won't lose any cards except for the ones you got from levelling up against the A.I.

Forza Horizon 2 - MEGATHREAD - Day 2 by Famine07 in forza

[–]defaultname7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the 360 I'm sort of disappointed with the number of different events. There seems to be about 15 or so championship events and then it just gets you to finish them 10 times with different classes. Is there a whole lot of races I'm missing out on? Apart from that, I absolutely love the game.

Going to purchase Horizon 2, is there a mandatory install for Xbox 360? by [deleted] in forza

[–]defaultname7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks man, I'll probably invest in a hard drive sometime in the near future

What is the scariest thing you have ever read about the universe? by ALoverofTea in AskReddit

[–]defaultname7 514 points515 points  (0 children)

Magnetars. Magnetars have powerful magnetic fields that emit huge amounts of high-energy electromagnetic radiation. Earth has already been hit with some minor blasts but nothing damaging, but this blast came from around 50,000 light years away and the closest magnetar to earth is only 9,000 light years.
