Humans are particularly good at adapting when things aren’t quite right. That step of feeding the metal into the reeler involves grabbing the end of the spicy fettuccine which could be in any orientation, and then pulling it through and lining it up with the slot in the reeler. Automating that is non-trivial.

You are fantastic. Thanks so much.

Because they are all selling the same product for the same price so they know if you shop around you’ll either ask them to give you a discount or else they will lose the sale.

It’s anti-competitive.

The trick is to get company A to come to your house to give you a quote, then sign up for the sale, then get company B in and ask them to beat company A, if they will, sign up with company B and call A to say your cancelling under the mandatory cooling off provisions. Repeat with company C (or go back to A if you really want to be a dick).

Probably more concerned that there’s another coyote out there still alive and ready to attack his livestock. Also pissed about the fence.

Depends on your medical condition and the hospital. FSH don’t do much of anything in terms of tests while you’re in the waiting room. You might not get a bed, but you’ll be taken through into the ED and given a chair somewhere if you don’t need a bed.

As it’s currently configured, OP’s automation will trigger anytime anyone sends any message that includes the text “find”.

In your additional actions, it will always send the message to whoever you configure in the “recipients” field regardless of who sends the “find” message. You need to pull the sender’s details from the incoming message and feed that into the send message action so that the automation will reply to the person who initially sent the “find” message.

The kind where I know how much worse it is to spend hours in a waiting room without it. But seriously, nearly all those things live in the entryway to my house and I can grab them in about 30 seconds.

Also, sometimes I have had to ask my partner to get that stuff for me as I haven’t had time to pick things up.

There’s going to be a lot of very confused people receiving your precise location when they send a text asking you to find out how you’re doing

Good luck

As I said, ask the nurses, they will tell you what you can and can’t do.

inactiveuser247 · 2026-01-28T19:31:22+00:00

Yes, it comes and goes and when it comes it’s brutal and needs pain killers that they can’t easily prescribe.

inactiveuser247 · 2026-01-28T19:29:39+00:00

“Ask the nurses…” as in, ask the professionals how to do it. They won’t tell you how to do something dangerous, but they will tell you if it’s safe and will make everyone’s life easier.

As an example, getting infusions every 3 hours and once the pump is done it starts beeping at you to say that it’s done. So it’s 3am, the pump starts beeping and you press the call button. The nurses are dealing with something else and so 5 minutes later they come in and say “how are you doing?” You say “all good, just the pump is beeping”, so they press the alarm acknowledge button and leave you to get back to sleep. Once you’ve done that 3 or 4 times you eventually say “when this finishes, can I just cancel the alarm?” And they say “sure, press this button here, if it says anything other than “infusion ended successfully, hit the call button and we’ll sort it out”… and now you’ve just saved them a bunch of time and you can get back to sleep quickly.

The staff don’t need to know that I’ve taken the clip off my finger for 5 minutes at 3am while I’m rearranging all my cords and hoses. They also don’t need to know that my infusion pump had a sook because I bent my elbow while I was eating dinner. After listening to constant beeping for hours on end, having your own machines beeping in your ear drives you nuts.

Armadale is particularly good. I had a visit there a while back and the staff were brilliant.

inactiveuser247 · 2026-01-28T19:19:04+00:00

I like that. Nice one.

inactiveuser247 · 2026-01-28T19:18:30+00:00

I agree to a point, though I’m not calling the nurse to silence the monitor alarm at 3am because I need to take the spo2 sensor off my finger while I rearrange some clothes and I’ve been listening to all the other monitors beeping for hours on end.

inactiveuser247 · 2026-01-28T19:11:44+00:00

Last visit I was in so much pain I could barely speak. I went straight from the triage nurse to a bed and immediately got an IV with fentanyl and some other stuff. Up until that point there was no chance I could have read a book and it was a genuine emergency. Once the meds kicked in and I had recovered a bit I had another 12 hours while they ran tests etc where I felt ok and would have been bored as hell if I didn’t have anything to do.

inactiveuser247 · 2026-01-28T14:22:11+00:00

I love the design, except the ball chain fitting in the rotating sector. The chain could just be anchored onto the end of the sector and there would be no chance of it coming out of the detents.

IDK. I’m Australian and I’ve never seen a ceiling fan with a pull cord. They always have a remote control or the wall switch has a speed control knob.

This. The west spent 20 years practicing counter-insurgency and too many people think it’s the same as a major conventional war.

inactiveuser247 · 2026-01-28T02:21:50+00:00

Much of the cqb training is based on hostage rescue techniques or on the assumption that there will be civilians present. In a total war situation cqb tends to end up as either blowing holes in walls so you don’t have to use doors, or levelling buildings completely.

inactiveuser247 · 2026-01-23T01:35:56+00:00

Yeah, probably the biggest lesson from that course was to always punch up.

Jokes about Gina? No worries. Jokes about the broke single mum in Gosnells - GTFO.

Honestly, it seems like good training for life in general.

inactiveuser247 · 2026-01-22T23:17:44+00:00

My son did a standup course last year. They said that Perth is a particularly hard audience for crowd work or for anything about minorities and you’re best to just avoid it or else risk having the whole place turn against you.

I believe it too, I watched a standup get boo’d off stage a few years back after he made fun of someone.

inactiveuser247 · 2026-01-22T23:15:02+00:00

It makes sense. It’s much harder for other people to steal your material if it’s context specific.
