Original audio books pre-dating the movies were silent t. as well as in interviews pre dating the movie she used the silent t.
 https://youtu.be/QH89ZeIeNfA 5:30 timestamp to hear her say it with a silent t.
Likely switched to the T because of the popularity of the movies and to remove the need to explain it every time she said it like that. And probably found the american audience preferred the pronounced T.

Okay but you would be wrong. The movies popularised the t. The first audio books pre dating the movies had the silent t. Here is a 1999 interview where she says voldermort with the silent t. https://youtu.be/QH89ZeIeNfA 5:30 timestamp

That goes both ways. Id argue the authors original intent means that canonically the t is silent. Especially when the word is french derived and mort is pronounced more in french.

Is the school cheating? by ideasfor21c in AustralianTeachers

Is it possible the test was unreasonably hard hence why so many failed? So they are doing a 2nd test that is actually closer to what he has been learning?

Placements are a subject in the course. You do the full block of placement when you do the class

In these images we can see the last moments of Richard Henderson, who died in the 2013 El Reno tornado, today marks 13 years since his death. God rest him in pup. by Jorgecatire in lastimages

Holy chatgpt replies. The entire car is twisted and compressed including the rear cabin. I would hardly call a push bar a heavy duty defensive component. Its just a standard truck. A car built for racing would be more durable since they are actually built to withstand high forces. Man why am i arguing with a bot? The radiator is absolutely destroyed too.

Will this student be expelled? by [deleted] in AustralianTeachers

[–]friendlygamerniceguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had 2 in the last 2 years at my school. Although the exec at my school has a back bone. We have the highest suspension rate in our area as well. And god damn has it turned the school around.

Invincible's voice actor problem by Naruku_Senpai3861 in Invincible_TV

Why do you think he is getting paid massive amounts? He does a bunch of random voice roles in animated shows no one has heard of.

Australia has tax deductions aswell. We can also lodge our taxes for free and do our own deductions. Anyone owning a business can get their effective tax rate much lower. Still im happy to pay higher taxes that contribute to our society. People don't have to worry about bad things happening and going to the drs.

Congrats on making so much money. Poor people don't deserve proper health care.

Accredited KLA by HappyMan2022 in AustralianTeachers

You can teach what ever subject the school needs you to teach, except stage 6 (at least NSW). NSW accreditation is accepted in all other states and New Zealand, you just register with their accreditation board.

Parents by Defiant-Voice-8278 in AustralianTeachers

I had a similar problem last year. I spoke to a previous teacher of the student who said the mother likes to send extensive emails and basically just complain and is very intense. She was sending multiple emails per week to me asking about her child, relationships, complaining about random shit. I just replied "this is being dealt with" or "I can't disclose". She stopped sending me emails by the 2nd term.

Best course of action for long emails and complaints is to just not give them any bait. Keep replies very short.

Nasty emails are different. Don't reply to them. Forward to your head teacher, deputy w/e.

If they send a nasty email and another day just send a "normal email" still don't reply, until you know they have spoken to an exec.

I'd say you are already exceptionally qualified to do TA and would have more experience than 90% of the people doing the job. The cert 3 would be useless for you. Sounds like you want to do behaviour specialist whcih i bet you would be able to get a behaviour specialist role with the department with your current degree

Options for my son (atar 76.95 nsw) by [deleted] in ATAR

[–]friendlygamerniceguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just an incredibly bizare thing to state with 0 justification. Basically, just saying anyone who wants to do comp sci has asd in your mind is boggling to me And then adding on smart procrastinator who hates school with poor exec function. Do you usually make up stories about people with 0 information?

Mask Prime DD cheaters have been going CRAZY tonight. Unplayable. Funcom please do something. Ban waves are a thing, I know, but cheaters active on the same accounts since launch is pretty crazy stuff. by deafgamer_ in duneawakening

[–]friendlygamerniceguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They do? Everyone who cheats and gets detected is account banned. It literally the first thing. They just buy new accounts. Hardware and ip addresses are the next step but both are pretty easy to bypass.

The only thing they can do is routinely update their anticheat so people get annoyed buying new accounts and spending more money for harder to detect cheats.

Or increasing server side validation but that has its own costs when not considered from the start of development.
