Trouble computing. Might respond later. Timer set.

Have good day.

That is a lot of lanes. Just tell your boss you're working from home.

I ask as I'm an ex surfer for decades.

Don't forget your legs, hands, forearms, and ears.

I'm like leather in a few of those places.

How are you handling skin damage from wind, and sun?

What are your procedures to avoid long term damage?

How about they start by paying taxes?! They haven't paid any income tax in Australia the whole time they've been in the country due to "creative accounting"

They're culling staff, in favour of machines.

They're a corporate leech.

Yee, it's just a normal mechanical pencil. When visiting an art store recently, I found a range of different hardness leads. This was a staedtler brand I believe. I'm loving it.

That would be nice. I hope so

It's the literal definition of grind. I wanted to love it, but the grind was insane.

I'll do what I can. However, x11 will definitely die in the upcoming years. Development is apparently only maintenance now and basic improvements. The writing is on the wall, as Wayland just doesn't support what the accessibility tools require.

The reddit still echo's in my head. Although not totally safe here, the past trauma is real.

 

All you need is some Jo Sonja acrylics. Cheap. High quality. Work perfectly.

Get base colours. Mix your own, and make some beautiful colours that nobody else has.

Save money. Win.

The industry doesn't want you to know you can just mix your colours, just like every other artist out there does.

 

Hi all,

I have an S21 FE 5G. It was great, have loved it for a few of years now.

As of a few weeks ago, I was getting roughly 1.5 days battery out of it, on 5.1.

I then upgraded to 6.1, then 7 as I was told the battery usage issue was fixed.

However, I am lucky to get a half a day, maybe 3/4 of a day out of the phone now. All the AI stuff is turned off (as I have not given it permission to run), and this is unacceptable.

So, rant over... :-)

Has anyone been successful? I know it will fully erase everything. That is fine. I have my own backups etc. I just want to see if it's trouble free, and if I can go back to 5.1?

Thanks so much.

 

You can use it for pretty much anything. You can track your exercise, your eating habits, really anything at all. It has basic statistics, it can export your data, it is completely locally hosted and the interface is clean and easy to use.

It's one of those apps that you probably didn't even think that you might need until you see it and use it.

I have no affiliation with the developer, but I thought other people might really enjoy this as well. So I am sharing here.

Hi all,

I am visiting Europe and need a VOIP system, that gives me an Australian number I can call other Australian numbers from.

I looked at Teams, and they bundle with Telstra (Australian local provider), but the cost is high, and the checklist / setup list MS sent me was something that you'd almost need a certificate in infrastructure just to setup. They are living in a dreamland.

I then tried a company called Krispcall. It's IDEAL in every situation, except a bit pricey, and it just Does. Not. Work. Firefox, Android, Chrome, etc. Fail after fail after fail. What a shame, it looked so good.

Does anyone have any recommendations? I'd really appreciate a nod in a proven directly.

Another called Callhippo caught my eye. I'm just not sure, after being burned by Krispcall.

UPDATE! Solved!

I can use WiFi calling on my normal phone, and it's used as though it's in Australia, incurring no extra costs. How easy is that!

 

I'll start:

Ended up there from a mastadon post. Bit random, but a good read.

 

Wife has a retroid pocket 5.

She's 4 months into Stardew Valley.

She's ready for a new game.

Any suggestions?

 

She's a national treasure.

That is all

 

Hi Australia.

I'm planning on voting as is my duty and my privilege at the upcoming election.

I'm going to preface by saying that I don't want my votes to go to the Dark Lord or the Liberal Party or the liars in the Labour Party. They are both completely corrupt and I'm adamant that they need to feel some pain.

So then I want to look at the independents and consider what they do and what they don't do, and will they be truly representative, or are they just there scrambling for votes to get some money and power? Who can say?

So what I'd like to do to make sure the Liberals and Labour don't get my vote, is find some kind of flowchart, that shows if I vote for an independent or a smaller party, where does that preference go to, so that I don't feed the party that I don't want to get my vote in the end.

Is there any resource out there that can show me where the preferences get fed to, so I can make an informed choice.

I feel like this should be a legal obligation, that we are all given this kind of information in a flowchart. But I can't find it. Can anybody help?

Thank you so much.

Note the fly in the bottom left corner.

I assume it must be quite smelly to attract that?
