Right after buying from Amazon my payment method got declined from Coles and my accounts weren’t showing on the app.
Apparently there are issues with online banking that arose 30 minutes ago, but the timing… way to give me a heart attack.
looking at industrial labellers, angry at AI. I should be able to tell it to give me a comparison of PT-E300VP vs PT-E550WVP, tweaking for cost and availability of consumables but nooo instead it’s putting milk tits on musk
Fucking dead internet, It took me ages (via google) to find an actual formal hire shop that I could visit and not some online service that wanted me to dance through my own fitting then mail me a suit.
i am having to generate my own comparison spreadsheets this is unacceptable for the 21st century
Tech companies using the term ‘AI’ is like Porsche continuing to use the word ‘Turbo’ on their electric cars. Meaningless marketing bullshit. There’s no ‘intelligence’. It’s just the marketing buzzword of the year.
I have a high-horse on this subject and by god there’s no way I’m getting down from it.
oh zero argument here I’m just still megapissed because I’m old enough to remember the net before SEO and corporations jammed their dick unsolicited up its arse and yea, for a bright shining moment I used to be able to actually tell it “Give me a breakdown between A and B” and it would
Oh I hear ya. I’m an old fart who started on Gopher, first browsed the ‘World Wide Web’ in Lynx in a Unix session and thought visiting AltaVista in Mosaic was the shit.
The way the net (and tech in general) has been in a downward spiral for so long, when originally there was so much promise, infuriates me.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go feed my horse.
Two words my friebd: Fred Mail.
In related news I just found out that google has decided to start ignoring the site:.au command
So what little use i had for it on a commercial front is now utterly gone.
NNTP and IRC are still there. We could go back. We’ll probably go back. Like kids discovering HAM radio.
The clearing out of stuff and the tidying and the fixing up furniture is working out really well. I am starting to see results. :)
Thinking of you today @[email protected] ♥️🫂
Thanks so much. It’s actually next Thursday, but I’m feeling ok about it at the moment. Thinking about a day at the hot springs, soaking in hot water.
I will unthink about you today and think about you next Thursday. Hot Springs sounds like a good idea.
hugs

You know how you put banana’s into the freezer to make banana cake and eventually end up just throwing out a hoard of old bananas before starting the cycle again? I pulled out my bananas and made a cake.
So, most of my practice assessments are done for this semester, bar one which should be done next week. Just gotta review them before submission, tighten up some terminology, and I’m sorted.
Crazy how I absorb so much information and do so well, when I’m not abused on the phones for 8 hours straight
when I was a wee lass we called it “prac” , there was prac and there was theory, one lecture a week of each
prac was always the hardest as you had to pass each and every week
Funny how competent we can be when allowed or when circumstances are better.
It’s like I’m a new me!
I hope everyone has a great night ❤️
My headache wasn’t too bad today, and I got to Wfh which helped heaps.
Work is going OK, responsibilites are amping up, but I like that. Get along OK with most people which is a plus.
Thank you everyone who put up with my drama over the last 6 months. You guys all made such a huge positive impact on my life. I don’t know if I would have gotten through it without you ❤️
Bonus cat
You earned it and put in the hard work to get where you are now. You did that for you and Gibson, and you’re succeeding.
She’ll get only the best of treats and toys she won’t play with lol
They always prefer the packaging 😭
I’m so glad you kept at it and persisted even though it was hard.
One of my friends tried to switch careers and had a ton of IT tech experience and he couldn’t for the life of him find a job many years back.
In the end he went back to his former company as they were happy to take him back if things didn’t pan out.
Don’t forget to treat yourself to something special every now and again!
I am so happy things are working out well for you. You really deserve this. 😘
I’m just happy to hear things have worked out so well for you and you’re enjoying your work
to the fucker who microwaved fish in the office: Do us all a favor and tell your boss you have to change to WHF full time since you are clearly unable to work in a civilized office.
Do us all a favor and tell your boss you have to change to WHF full time since you are clearly unable to work in a civilized office
If that is all it took to wfh full time I would be microwaving fish every hour.
It’s 2024. Who the fuck doesn’t know about how much people hate this?!?!
I was more thinking “make like a Russian oligarch who doesn’t support the war” and out the window with 'em.
Or go Russian Tsar and make up lies about Tsarina Fish-Microwaver fucking horses
Sounds like a @[email protected] manoeuvre.
Never! I only microwave potato in the office. Sardines are an at home food only
mmm office potato 😋
And to think, if you punished them, YOU would be the one to get in trouble.
right?!
Perfect time to start having loud conversations with co-workers on the topic.
‘Oh my god…did you smell the lunch room? Absolutely foul fish smell from the microwave’
‘Couldn’t eat my lunch actually. The fish smell absolutely ruined my appetite’ (I would even be extra petty and claim reimbursement for lunch as you weren’t able to enjoy it)
and things of that nature
I dont know specifically who it was, and its a large space so I didnt say anything. Shoulda have though.
Even better!! A general conversation that the offender might overhear.
You’re not picking on anyone in particular, you’re highlighting a shitty act.
Good night everyone and may no greebles bother you in the night 😘
I think I have some visit me, I didn’t sleep fully through without waking up through the night.
Good morning, I was unbothered by greebles for the entire night. Miss Meow crept in early this morning to guard me from any that may have decided to make an appearance. I hope your night was simalarly greeble free.
Do we have any recent news about Nellie? Or do we get the calendar photo early next month?
Nothing yet. Q3 ought be soonish.
I have meatballs and some Oat thickened cooking cream. I’m going to have a crack at making Swedish meatballs so I can used both of them without eating pasta again so soon.
If these turn out alright we can have Ikea meatballs at home.
oats in the meatballs? Not a bad idea!
Oatly thickened cooking cream. I haven’t tried it yet but I like their chocolate oat milk
They’re very easy to make. Basically it’s gravy with cream added at the end.
Fry your meatballs. Take them out. Make gravy. Add cream. Put meatballs back in with gravy and simmer until meatballs are fully cooked. Eat 3 meatballs to check for doneness.
Enjoy!
. Eat 3 meatballs to check for doneness.
I resemble this remark. 🤭
I have this thing where when I sit down to eat I announce “ooooo I’m quite full now” 😂
What the cook does is the cook’s business.
I decided to look at the 7-Eleven app as it keeps getting recommended. There does not seem to be any option to actual create an account. The closest I can find is to sign up for their rewards program, which starts with requiring a phone number and tells me that my phone number is invalid. Also looking at the fine print they now limit the amount you can save by locking the fuel price to 25c, which considering it often jumps 40c or more when it goes up these days is not quite the “price lock” I imagined.
Edit: solved the issue with signing up - some weird glitch on the tablet that if the app is in landscape mode it doesn’t show the option to register. It is there on the phone and when I resize the window on the tablet it magically appeared there too!
2nd Edit: solved except it is supposed to send a code to my email address and it has not come through.
Petrol Spy shows the prices all over Melbourne. Sometimes prices vary wildly even in the same suburb.
Yeah, I use that and it’s really good. It also shows you a graph of average prices, it’s interesting to look at the different patterns in different capital cities.
I have found there are a few places that seem to go up first, then the rest follow over a week or so. So far there have not been any going up again, so I should be good for at least a few days.
If you’re clever enough to fake your gps and careful with making sure your app is closed before setting up the gps you can put yourself close to a cheaper 7-11, lock in the price, close the 7-11 app then reset your gps and don’t open the app again for awhile so they don’t detect you zooming around unrealistically.
80s kids party food please.
Already got: fairy bread, snakes in cups, choc crackels, those cornflake things, terrible little frankfurts.
English muffin pizza faces, butterfly cupcakes, little meringues, jelly cakes.
Jelly cups
mini pizzas
mini sausage rolls
I think the last two aren’t decade specific
Those cornflake things are called honey joys. They deserve respect.
damn straight!
Thanks. I’ve need to mod them though, got a peanut allergy guest.
I think your thinking of crunchy nut cereal.

I hope this helps.
Toffee apples, but make one an onion.
I saw a reddit post where someone put Brussels sprouts in Ferrero Rocher wrappers for Halloween. Fucking genius.
We have a family tradition of laminations but one is a kitchen sponge. Funnily enough, there’s always leftover lamingtons.
Cheezels, a bowl of smarties and frog in a pond.
Jelly slice, jelly slice, jelly slice.
Toffee in patty pans
Asparagus rolls if you want a ‘posh’ grown up option.
It will be a total mash up kids stuff, Halloween, and the usual adult cheese etc boards.
Oh yes! Sprinkles in toffee.
Oooh toffees. How much paper did you end up eating because it was stuck to the toffee?
Too much. Getting braces put a swift end to that.
Party pies! And dead horse to eat with franks and pies and mini sausage rolls. Best put on table in bowls so the sauce bottle doesn’t get used as a weapon or smashed on the floor. Ask me how I know this (no, don’t - it’s embarrassing).
Frog in a pond? Nuts and bolts
No idea what nuts & bolts is in this context?!
