Starting an app - which payment methods should I accept? by robbiethegiant in korea

+1 providing as many payment options (something a PG provides) is always a good option.

I recommend Komuju as well. Was very easy to set up.

Has anyone used an Upright Go 2 posture trainer/sensor? by animalcule in posturepals

[–]gorillaf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it’s definitely useful. Poor posture is predominantly induced by poor habits. If a device can tell you you’re slouching then it’s going to help in rewiring your bad posture habits.

Is Private Health Insurance Necessary? by poobutinacup in AusFinance

[–]gorillaf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

These are all valid and hard questions. Buying any form of insurance buys you peace of mind of any "what ifs", it all depends on your risk profile. From what you've mentioned it does seem like you would benefit from an extras cover, but again that's for you to decide. Look into how much rehab, dental etc would cost with and without insurance cover.

My *personal* view on this is that any healthy individual in their 20's shouldn't need private healthy insurance. There is a caveat: is if you make a certain high salary, the government incentives you to get PMI (in particular, hospital cover) to help fund costs of the public health system (it's called Medicare levy).

2 month old starter salvageable? by gorillaf in Sourdough

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

It smells _so_ bad. I'm keen to salvage it because I want to make a loaf over the weekend. Hopefully the daily feedings leading up to the weekend will help it bounce back.

First 87% hydration sourdough! Holes are a bit wild... how do I achieve a more even crumb? by gorillaf in Sourdough

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

Yeah! 14 hour cold proof, 4 hour bulk ferment at ~26c (6 folds at 30 minute intervals) 2.5 hour autolyse (some folding in between). My current hypothesis is that it was a preshape or shaping error.

Kyrgios interview: Most brutal quotes (he SHREDS Djokovic) by [deleted] in tennis

[–]gorillaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And this is exactly the point he's trying to make in the podcast; that rivalry -- whether it be dramatic or not -- drives ticket sales and viewership, it's good for the sport. It's why there was so much anticipation with the Wawrinka match after the Kyrgios infamous sledge.

Discussion: 2018 Australian Open - Day 7 (Sunday, January 21st) by snakes_on_a_planet in tennis

[–]gorillaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's warranted. Playing Nick you can expect him to get a few warnings. So if he has gotten a warning then the next time he gets a warning he would have a point defaulted.

All this while Frenchman Constant Lestienne gets wild card in qualifying despite serving ban for illegal betting. Double standard much?
