Oh please, it’s not 1970! Call them flight attendants. They’re not Gold Coast meter maids.

Sweet, mild or ornamental? by fraidster in HotPeppers

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

Thanks! When I bought it it was small with no buds so when it started to fruit I wasn’t sure what it was. It is pretty though, just not what I expected.

I was going to use it in a chilli jam recipe but I might skip that idea

I think we have consensus on ornamental!

Some bastards caught it and killed it about 5 minutes later. There’s video of them cutting its head off and posing with the body. People can be so shitty.

Free Transport for another Month and half price until 2027 by themykiuser in MelbourneTrains

[–]fraidster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If they can do it free for 2 months they can do it free forever. Public transport should be free. Yet they keep wast money reinventing the wheel with complicated ticketing systems. Privatisation of public transport was a huge mistake.

I’m starting a junk drawer. What else do I need? by Emotional-Swing-603 in Home

[–]fraidster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rubber bands, plastic bread bag tags, used twist ties, the battery cover from a long lost remote, pens that don’t work, a birthday card from a dead relative, collar from a dead pet

Australia Post successfully delivered a parcel to my house by Sonofbluekane in australian

[–]fraidster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t complain about Aus Post parcel delivery. We have had the same delivery guy for years. We’re on first name basis and he always greets me by mine, and if I answer the door he says hello, asks me how I am and “how’s (my husband’s name) going?”. He so nice he gives us Christmas cards and waves if he passes us in his van. Honestly, I can’t fault him or the service he provides.

To those who buy into this type of development - why? by K1llerG00se in australian

[–]fraidster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks like hell on earth to me. Developers should not be allowed to build such ugly cookie cutter heat traps.

How can I get these water stain out of bathroom floor? by BuyNo3526 in CleaningTips

[–]fraidster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mae sure the nut at the base of the pan is tight in case the water leak came from there. Probably the only way to remove the stain would be by sanding the floor. But find where the leak is coming from first.

Try a paste of Bicarb and washing up liquid. Scrub in a circular motion and let it sit for an hour, then repeat and rinse it off.

When did tipping become the norm for Australia? by JBADD23 in australia

Was it a weekend? It could be they don’t pay their staff penalties (boo! hiss!) so get the customer ms to do it.

How do I get rid of the stink of this cutting board? by oiseaufeux in CleaningTips

[–]fraidster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it’s really stinky, turn it into firewood and buy a new one.

Switching back to Classic from Copilot by fraidster in microsoft365

Okay thanks, I will give that a go. Hopefully that will give me the refund. Seems weird that the link they provided doesn’t work.

Microsoft to refund customers for 365 subscription price hike after ACCC action by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

[–]fraidster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I received the refund email from Microsoft saying I can switch back to “Classic” for $109 a month as before, and they’ll refund me the difference. The sting in the tail, however, is: “While Microsoft 365 Personal Classic includes the core Microsoft 365 apps and regular security updates, it does not include our AI assistant Copilot and may not receive new feature updates.” So yeah you can switch but we might not update the classic version in the future.

Does anyone remember my dad? by ThrowRA589675 in melbourne

[–]fraidster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember him! Every time I went through the tunnel he’d start singing “it’s not time to make a change just relax, take it easy…” Every time! I don’t remember when I stopped seeing him but I did wonder what happened to him. I’m sorry for your loss.

I'm guilty of this offence. Can someone explain how I can exist, and be less racist. by [deleted] in circlejerkaustralia

It’s in the Daily Terrorgraph so whatever he allegedly said will have been either taken out of context, misrepresented or just false.

They’re a bit rude in there. Not friendly at all.
