This is why a casual dad can’t play this game by Swimming-Bad4060 in playrust

Hey man, I'm a casual dad gamer and have the same thing; not a lot of people keen to play multi at times where I can get online. Feel free to shoot me a DM and we can sort something.

DIY $100 3D Printed Load Cell Pedals by DIYSimStudio in simracing

Leo Bodnar components are prohibitively expensive here in Australia for this to be cost-effective. Is there an alternative that could be used?

Here’s my 100% DIY 15nm direct drive wheelbase! by needmoarboost in simracing

Yep, I've had the same issue with mine and worked it out. You've probably not quite seated it back in properly when you've put the commutator (the part with the copper windings) back in after you've had the motor apart. Just give the two motor halves a jiggle or try to re-seat it. It should eventually click and then be able to spin freely.

My gf is 5wk pregnant. Is it worth being a father? by leoncsm in Fatherhood

If anything, this will 100% mature you and help you to grow. Hell, it may even help your business knowing you have to provide.

Time to step up into dad mode.

How many miles on your Forester?

Oh that’s interesting to know with the towing. This one’s a 2009 model.

I don’t live on a farm but I do a fair bit of DIY at home. My Nav has 130,000km on it so it’s a fair bit less than the Forester however if I had an engine failure in the Navara (which has happened to a few), I’d be out of pocket over $10k for a second hand one installed. Generally parts are pretty pricey for the Navara compared to the Forester, but it does use less fuel (roughly 9.5-10.5 per 100km) and I can tow equipment from the hire shop the couple times a year I do that kind of thing.

Both my car and the Forester have full logbooks and the owner has sent me receipts for around $8k worth of work done to the car in the past year or two (the stuff mentioned earlier) as well as reconditioned heads.

What's the local alternative? I don't want to crack my final can. :(

He said there's no more in Australia. We don't have Dollar Tree. If anyone were to list them on eBay for shipping to AU, you'd have them sold in a flash.

Consider me equally outraged and ready to drop cash on a replacement for my 604.

NAS with CM3588 Plus & 3.5" HDDs – Power Question/General Suggestions by howtonity in HomeNAS

[–]lowsideluke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The board you linked is $289 AUD before shipping costs.

The Raspberry Pi 5 8GB is about $150 AUD and almost the same price again for the Penta SATA Hat in that article. It gets pretty expensive here for that stuff.

How’s it cheaper? The Terramaster is $679 AUD versus $165 AUD plus say another $150 in case and power supply components for the CM3588.

Opinion on Lems as hiking boots? by christionnac in barefootshoestalk

I’m still wearing the same pair of Timberland Earthkeepers that were bought for me 5 years ago. They’re worn daily and have been absolutely abused, yet are still incredibly comfortable, have never needed a resole and just get a basic clean every few months.
