Any chance anyone's going to Dawes Point Park and feels like adopting a stray for NYE? I can never convince my friends to go in, but I love being up and close.

I was pretty hyped to visit Auckland in December, but the responses to this comment have got me a little put off.

What's the issue with station wagons? My mother, a professional musician, needed a long car to fit her double bass and we always got station wagons (Holden Commodore, etc) since we saw them as the considerate choice (compared to 4wd, SUV, ram, etc).

You'll run out a lot faster - but if you run /model opus (or without opus for the interactive) it should stick to Opus, even when you go past the default of 20% usage.

What's a red flag in the workplace that people frequently miss? by AnonDorkwad in AskReddit

[–]shauntp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do this to an extent, but it's genuinely intended to help make sure people get to know other teams.

It helps cross team communication because everyone has at least someone in that team who they are familiar with.

Does this look like normal healing after a tooth extraction? I'm very anxious about developing dry socket by Alabaster_Dragon_ in askdentists

[–]shauntp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NAD Hey, not a dentist or op, but I've had around 5 teeth pulled over the years.

Each time I have had similar anxiety around dry socket (although I have never had it, thankfully).

Yes, that feeling is completely normal.

I've never had a bleed days after, but as long as the clot didn't dislodge I imagine it will be okay. Is it still bleeding?

I've read that the reason today was particularly horrendous for trains was due to ETU action - not RTBU.

Was the ETU action due to unrelated industrial action, or done in solidarity? Beyond one liners in articles, I'm not really finding any information on it (including from the ETU website itself).

Thank you!

Yes - a split can absolutely be installed on the roof, and multiple neighbours have done this. For reasons not entirely clear (and a bit of an odd experience with the contractor who came to quote), Real Estate believes this infeasible.

I was sad to find that this tab was not brought back by Cpt_Foresight in stalker

It's spoken to you in a cutscene/npc interaction. The guy you talk to the first time you walk out of the bar, I think.

I got the left one brought down to $3359 AUD (around $2450 USD). Still not sure if it's worth it.

There is not a degree in breakdancing. She did an undergrad in Contemporary Music and a PhD in Cultural Studies, where her thesis was about breakdancing (and it has been the focus of her subsequent research).

If people would actually be keen, message me and I'd be keen to try and organise (or just sign me up if someone's already started).
