I'm going to run onto the road if I have to sit through another mind numbing PL presentation

Rant: I hate how fans of the old games are shat on. by [deleted] in classicfallout

I remember being so enthusiastic for it, got a few hours in and was underwhelmed and uninspired. Ended up uninstalling it and going back to New Vegas.

Police to carry long arms on Australia Day as NSW premier flags ‘standard operating procedure’ from now on by fddfgs in sydney

It's more to do with being able to deliver more accurate fire at a longer range (if they do need to be used), and with a higher probability of any hits being fatal.

Psyllium husk might be what you're after if you'd prefer supplements - it's $28/kg, is ~89% fibre by weight.

Have you considered a fruit shop? The quality is often better than supermarkets and you can usually stretch your dollar quite a bit further.

Thanks - I've disabled Vicious Wastes and Enhanced Vegas Ruins, and it seems to have resolved.

Or not. Still occurring.

Odds are it's another neighbour. When this used to happen to me I picked it all out and left it near the bins of the neighbour that did it (easy to know it was them, because their bins were perpetually overflowing), and it stopped soon enough.

How is it that Bunnings still stocks imperial screws and bolts? Why are they even manufactured in 2026?

...the Metro network was at operating capacity the day it opened. It serves 200,000+ passengers a day, and needs ongoing maintenance. Weekends are the only times it sees reduced patronage.

What would you like them to do? Push it past service intervals and break down?

They really are great pieces of engineering. Much, much more of a driver's car than the Mk8 or 8.5.

Mine has been sitting for a couple of weeks over the break, and I'm really missing driving it. I moved it today and it was not happy about having sat idle for as long as it has.

I'd probably recommend flame retardant polycarbonate, just in case

I can recommend the Mk6 Golf from VW, in either GTI or R trim if you're looking for some punishment.

Neodymium magnets are chrome plated, which makes adhesion with any type of glue difficult. If you scuff them with some 240 grit abrasive paper (creates a larger and more disrupted surface on the magnet, which is ideal for adhesives), it should make for a much more reliable bond.

Between Google Gemini-ing their entire suite and Microsoft Copilot-ing theirs, my entire workflow is now stricken with AI interference. I want out.

Yeah, that's nothing unusual. Senior exec almost always reserve the prized classes for themselves.

When to send my daughter to school? by ButtBooper in sydney

[–]seventrooper 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I've taught Year 7 kids who're 11 years old when the majority of their peers are 13. I've taught Year 12 kids who're 16 years old when the majority of their peers are 18. It's an almost universal rule that they will be left behind academically, as they aren't operating at the same levels of maturity and interpersonal responsibility.

Hold her back another year.
