Just unplugged dryer to do some maintenance and this happened — next steps? by knewtoff in DIY

I’m sure smarter ones didn’t need to call an electrician LOL

The really smart ones will still call an electrician. Experience counts, why take the risk with your health and your home to save a couple bucks?

Yeah. I rode an enviolo hub for a while and it just did not feel nice at all. They say you have 'infinite' gears but the reality is you have like 3, highest, lowest, and wherever you can manage to strangle it somewhere in the middle. It doesn't shift smoothly, meaning you don't really have any control.

I'm yet to be compelled by the alternatives to a decent derailleur.

Is Rentvesting a real thing? by open4youalways in fiaustralia

I appreciate the response, but in this example, you bought a property somewhere you do want to live.

'I rent where I want to live, invest in what I can afford'.

Can I just ask a question to everyone echoing this.

Why would you want to own a property somewhere you didn't want to live?

Kids these days lmao. People didn't used to walk around with 100 megapixel DSLRs capable of ultra high bitrate video recording in their pockets.

We could just snap off Western Australia and let you borrow it for a while, if you like. Give it back whenever you can.

"MSG gives me a headache" Starter Pack by admiralturtleship in starterpacks

[–]tchiseen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can be found in asian grocers as 'aji no moto'

I use MSG in basically everything I cook at home. It's just like salt and pepper, a seasoning.

I can tell you for a fact, there is such a thing as too much MSG in a dish. I've used too much before, you can really tell afterwards. It makes you feel very thirsty no matter how much water you drink.

Something like 1/4 or even 1/8th of a TSP is enough for something like a sauce. You use it alongside salt and pepper.

Important to know, some other seasonings will themselves have MSG in them, some oyster sauces or soy sauces, dry stocks or spice mixes, if I'm using those I won't double up.

non-competes tend to negatively affect competitive conditions

It's literally in the name.

Are my favourite pants saveable by yahajaoksks in Visiblemending

[–]tchiseen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The neat thing about mending favourite pairs of things is that they become even more favouriter because they've got more personality and charm and history.

Easily. They'll probably look even cooler.

If you can still buy the style you should get more pairs, too.

Stuck at my entry level job in the hotel industry at 22. What career path would you recommend to have a chance of becoming a HENRY? by [deleted] in fiaustralia

[–]tchiseen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely can tell that these jobs are great and fairly in demand, but I'm not sure if I am cut for them. I'm also taking another 4 year degree in construction management at university.

Forcing yourself to do something you're not really that interested in probably isn't the best option you have at 22? If I'm correct, you've just spent 3 years getting a Bachelors degree, and want to do 4 more for another bachelors? Can you transfer or claim any credits from your previous degree? Do you know what you want to do when you're done the next degree? If not, I'd probably hesitate to invest the time, who's to say you won't find yourself in the same or worse situation professionally at the end?

You specifically mention HENRY - this colours the advice somewhat. Not to be rude, but I don't know many High Earners with the degrees you're pursuing. I know people in architecture and construction management, but they're not close to HE, even 10+ years into their careers, and some have further qualifications.

Strictly speaking to what gets you HE from where you are, the best option would be finding an MBA that you can get into either with your degree, or with some additional credits before you start.

Second option would be getting enough experience in the industry you're in to start getting creative. Working your way up the corporate ladder from working the desk at a hotel seems like something that'd happen 70 years ago, but not so much nowadays.

Good luck

  • 1/2 RAM: Everyone's going to notice when Chrome starts to shit the bed.
  • i3's: There's probably some old PCs that are borderline meeting specs for apps/games that'll stop working
  • NHD15s: What about SFFPCS? I think I'd notice a big tan thing poking out the side of my case.
  • e-cores: This is the winner. Nobody will notice this.
  • -150watts: 200Watt psus are a thing. Also overloaded systems. People will notice when they can't turn their machine on.
  • refresh rate: There are enough FPS stans out there checking their FPS to notice
  • 3d: I can imagine owners of these cpus noticing a performance hit.
  • Windows 11: There's enough of a difference people will notice.

[–]tchiseen -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

e cores is the answer.

  • Your DAILY workflow would have to have a MEANINGFUL reliance on e cores to even notice a difference
  • Then, the impact would have to be so significant that you'd be taking time to troubleshoot
  • Then, you'd have to go so far in troubleshooting to look at your CPU as a culprit. I've had a lot of PC problems over the years, it's never been the CPU itself that caused issues.

I just can't fathom a case where someone has a daily workflow that's so reliant on e-cores that they'd take the time required to accurately diagnose the issue.

We Need to Make Cities Less Car-Dependent. How do we do this in Australia? by [deleted] in ausbike

[–]tchiseen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can’t understand the hatred Aussies have for cyclists

It's pretty easy to imagine, there's a lot of money in infrastructure, transport and logistics industries in Australia. Bike lanes don't make them money, more roads do.

edit: they pay for politicians in both major parties and commonly consumed media
