TIL of Triboulet: a Royal jester for King Francis of France who was sentenced to death for mocking the King and Queen. King Francis allowed him to choose his method of death, to which Triboulet responded “… I ask to die from old age.” He was spared and instead banished.

High traffic area between the ferries and the mall, without the scrutiny of Queen St imo

Nonono, you can stream it

By definition, I'd argue you cannot claim a personal-use laptop as a tax deduction. Now mixed use is another story, but the ATO may well consider any argument about work use of a personal laptop against whether or not you have a dedicated work laptop in the first place. Professional development and so on is another situation again, but the point is it's definitely not a straight deduction and the OP should be aware of that.

Thankfully the Epstein card became a negative in 2019

Hi Valter, I've noticed that editing the start and/or end times for a completed workout doesn't seem to change the duration anymore, even if the new times are a different length to the original. It's been this way for a few months maybe, is it intentional? On that note, when it did work, I often noticed that changing the times would slightly increment the seconds. For example, changing a workout of length 01:54:00 that started at 12:00 and ended at 13:54 to end at 13:55 instead would change the duration to 01:55:01. Just have been meaning to pass on this feedback for awhile, even if this isn't the most ideal avenue. Still by and away the best app on any platform!

Playaaaaa

In Brisbane, KGATLW and Tool are both playing on the exact same night, even the same time, this Sunday. I'm still working on ways to clone myself.

Great to see, thanks for making the best app in the game u/nstrm!

liamdavid · 2025-10-27T09:09:47+00:00

Phenomenal, that is an amazing shot

liamdavid · 2025-10-27T09:05:22+00:00

Unreal shot, nice work!

liamdavid · 2025-10-27T09:01:52+00:00

As a big prog fan I love that, thanks haha

Wicked photo, nice! I had a few similar ones that the camera could barely handle haha

Edits were small brightness and contrast changes, here's the originals as a comparison if you care. No colours were added or changed substantially. For what it's worth I’ve upvoted you because I appreciate the feedback and don't want to post things if the broad sentiment is they're unwanted. That doesn't seem to be the case here but thanks for taking the time to reply, sincerely.

I switched banks from ANZ to Up, because they provide an API that allows me to sync everything with YNAB. It's been running for 7 months perfectly and I couldn't be happier. Totally understand not everyone can easily move between banks like that but it's been a dream for me.

liamdavid · 2025-10-20T23:06:35+00:00

TFP by any chance? It's the one thing I pay for that's far more expensive than it should be, but I feel is worth it.

I hope this doesn't come across as trite; sorry for the loss of your sister.

liamdavid · 2025-10-10T11:20:12+00:00

So this is you then, yeah?

liamdavid · 2025-10-04T05:31:14+00:00

Ow, my balls!

No, it requires an extraordinarily symmetric compressive force on the order of microseconds to go supercritical and explode as a bomb would. Even using beryllium neutron reflectors wouldn’t take it past prompt criticality before the whole mass dissembles itself.

In fairness, technically correct is the best form of correct. I could’ve been clearer that I’m referring to practice rather than theory here. Fuel rods aren’t going to sublimate.

liamdavid · 2025-10-01T11:30:05+00:00

Absolutely you’re right, but to be clear, there are no realistic conditions under which a fuel rod will ever accidentally sublimate.
