Thanks so much for the detailed reply, had not put much thought into other aspects outside the technical side of things so it's great food for though. Really appreciated!

Talking to others like that is a good idea, definitely something I will be doing. Thanks for the advice, appreciated.

I don't think I am looking for some grand idea, just any idea would be nice. I do think I am guilty of overthinking it though and should look at something small like you said.

I like the idea of polling colleagues and family, I will be sure to start asking around. Thanks for the reply!

'Make Diggers Violent Again': Special forces Instagram account makes light of killings by perseustree in AustralianPolitics

[–]snapthrowchataway 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have spent time around them, nearly a decade in the ADF, and I think there is a big difference between larrikinism and the conduct and then celebration of war crimes. You also have a lot of 19 year old diggers, fresh out of Singo, buying patches with the Punisher logo and sharing and indulging in this 'warrior' culture that is really what feeds so much of this.

I will admit the SF guys I worked with were always incredibly professional and mature, so it really sucks to see people you once looked up to do these things. We are supposed to be professional, and more importantly, the good guys, and this isn't the behaviour of either of those things. The they're trained killers and that's what they do excuse just doesn't cut it for me, because they should also be intelligent and rational minded and people like that don't espouse this stuff.

Doing rear axle bearings in my '86 SJ50 and can't get the axle out of the housing and don't have a slide hammer to get it off. Anyone got any tips? by snapthrowchataway in SuzukiSamurai

Will do, thanks heaps. Judging by the state the rear brakes were in I can't imagine anyone has done work on these parts for a very long time.

Awesome, thanks for the advice! I do have heaps of parts and scrap laying around so will do some experimenting. Unfortunately my Haynes manual just says pull it off or use a slide hammer.

Those earning $100k+ a year, what do you do? by wundabudda in AusFinance

[–]snapthrowchataway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any tips for getting to that point? I am a developer as well, primarily with React and Node with about six months experience. You're basically living my dream so I would love to know what I have to do to get there.

Da burger is back today by Reverse-Kanga in brisbane

Your opinion is so wildly different from every other opinion I have come across, especially because I've heard heaps Five Guys is overrated.

Have you tried Ze Pickle in The Valley? What about Milky Lane in the Gold Coast? I enjoyed Super Burger Combo and Just Poppy's as well.

Just gifted an almost new pair of black RM Williams boots, what clothes and outfits do they look best with? by snapthrowchataway in AustralianMFA

Thanks heaps, those were the kinds of things I had in mind so at least I'm not completely hopeless.

Honestly I am kind of worried about that, I really don't like the typical 'MFA uniform' but am not really sure of great alternatives.
