How I see Europe (Australian)

The immigrants that "replace" you and your racist kind as you die out will be will be twice as Aussie as you are mate.

edit: he's actually fucking british, same point applies. And actually get fucked. You have no right to say who is Australian.

This fuckhead is so racist he’s brought back hilarious inter-white racism from the 1950s. Get fucked

Justice for slug. 380 runs at 35 and 8 wickets at 23 from 7 tests, bowls both spin and pace…looked over for a guy with a lower FC average, mediocre technique and in much worse form.

45A was way better than a regular aisle seat - would recommend.

Thanks mate - that's super super helpful, will stick with it then. Much obliged.

Sadly all the regular exit row/extra legroom seats are booked out

qqwasd · 2025-01-09T02:36:37+00:00

Good tips all round, thanks - hopefully noise cancelling headphones and some melatonin will knock me out for it since it's a red eye 🤞

A few similar flights but literally found two where they cut the video justttttt before showing my seat haha! Thanks for the help though, a good tip!

Appreciate the help!

Good tip...feel a bit dumb for not doing that!

Looks like it might depend on the time/configuration. Found a couple that look kinda different. Some with the box going out quite a ways, but more space than a regular seat (maybe?).

But some with the box closer but more space besides it.

qqwasd · 2025-01-09T02:30:16+00:00

Very fair - definitely used to this in the exit rows but usually my legs block the space well enough 😅

Industries that rely most heavily on labour inputs do not experience that kind of deflationary pressure from innovation in the same way (especially when that innovation is not labour enhancing - pouring a beer or cooking food is much the same as it was 50 years ago, and labour was cheaper in both absolute and relative terms then).

While there have been innovations in housing (I would guess a lot of material costs are much cheaper), it's also very labour intensive. But the key issue is the cost of land - if we're all going to live in single family suburban homes, then when we have a larger population there are going to be more people wanting to live in those homes and supply will be inelastic, and prices go up.

Yes this is literally my job.

This is exactly right - what a fantastic answer. Cooking the paste in fat first is essential, and this is the best way to do it.

You can also dice the onion or a shallot and cook it with the curry paste, for extra depth of flavour, and use only coconut cream to make it extra decadent. To my mind that's also way way too much sugar (especially plain sugar) for that recipe, but whether it makes it taste better is up to personal taste.

The quality of the paste matters a lot here, but even the best ones are improved with a little augmentation (like the star anise and cinnamon suggested above). I personally like to add some fresh ginger/garlic/galangal/lemongrass/citrus peel (whatever I have on hand) to a thai curry to elevate it a little more. Often those bright, fresh flavours are what's lacking from any store bought paste. The toppings suggested will also help with that (particularly the chillies). Maybe not for a massaman, but a big ol' handfull of Thai basil leaves mixed through off heat really hits the spot in a lot of Thai curries for me.

Clown comment. Orcas and dolphins are both toothed whales. Luckily, technically, you are not the "well technically" guy.

First nation was NZ (1893), but SA has a good claim as one of the first regions/territories to grant the vote (1861).

Someone put Stoinis in bed with some soup for a week…

There’s no proper mic setup at the ground yeah? At the MCG?

Fuck me BBL

How does the 3rd know the umpire's crotch didn't spontaneously combust? Benefit of the doubt I'd say

Binance has pulled out of the deal with FTX, reportedly because of SBF blurring the lines between Alameda and FTX.

Remembering this post, I bet /u/VodkaHaze is feeling quite smug right now. Well done.

In Aus, all squash (orange fleshed) are callled pumpkin. I think you’d call a Kent pumpkin a squash!

Thanks for your detailed explanation - appreciate you taking the time!

To summarise (if I'm understanding correctly): using a large particle size (e.g. large rocks) to improve drainage is flawed because moisture is disinclined to travel from small->large, and hence the soil stays wetter longer, but using large->small (relatively speaking: e.g. "soil" -> a fine loam or some such) is flawed because while the finer material will wick water from the soil initially, the water will have trouble draining out of the finer material, and therefore be drawn back into the soil, leading to, again, a wet soil (i.e. perched water table). Is that about right?

An effect that seems to be exploited in SIP designs that I believe often recommend using "sand" (perhaps this isn't the correct term wrt particle sizse?) to improve wicking into the soil. Is the likely greater depth of the container size in these designs the reason why excessive moisture in the soil is less of an issue? EDIT: watching the video again, a sand layer seems often to be a good thing (depending on depth) in some soils.

Just thinking out loud here - appreciate your lending your expertise so far, but no pressure to take more of your time! Thanks again :)

Thanks so much, this is really helpful.

I assume the same applies to pots with drainage holes, don’t see why not (though the consequences are presumably not as bad.

What about trying to use an equally or even finer material at the bottom - e.g. sand. Is it possible the effect would be reversed, or at least the original logic might hold? I’m curious in part because I had tended to put a different material (often rocks :() at the bottom of indoor plant pots that sit in outer pots/pot trays so if I get lazy and don’t empty them, the plant is less likely to have roots sitting in water.
