You think emus look prehistoric, take a look at our cassowary!

I made one recently that was pretty nice - tomato base, sliced (cooked) pork chipolatas, pineapple and cheese. Plenty of oregano and basil.

Have you tried Ardour?

Second OpenTTD - that’ll keep you busy

Already has - air Canada was held liable for their ai chatbot giving wrong information that a guy used to buy bereavement tickets. They tried to claim they weren’t responsible for what it said, but the judge found otherwise. They had to pay damages.

Iirc just recently they started giving out blue ticks to people with lots of followers, regardless of if they wanted it. Then this week they make it so you can’t hide them. It seems like a dim move - piss off the people who bring lots of traffic to your website, but actively decided to not get a blue tick, by forcing the tick on them.
If they didn’t leave beforehand, maybe this would make some people/orgs consider leaving?

Very wet here too in Queensland Australia - seems like our summer was marked with rain and regularly toppling daily minimum (and some maximum) temp records.

That’s ‘dressed all round’ what I’m assuming is finished milled. I’m a very amateur diyer - I’d imagine that if you went to a timber yard here they’d probably have a good idea what you were after. Just read online that most bulk wood is bought by the cubic metre, but all dimensioned wood is by the linear metre.

what’s the metric equivalent of ordering “four-quarter” boards?

We have a lot of standard sizes that seem to be based on imperial - 12mm (1/2inch), 16mm (5/8inch), 19mm (3/4inch), 32mm (5/4inch) etc.

If you’re actually interested in taking a look, here’s a link to the dressed timber section of Australia’s hardware capital - Bunnings.

I’d argue that’s just because you’re more familiar with Fahrenheit (making the assumption you grew up with it).

Celsius is just as ‘good’ as anything, better if you consider that measuring temperature extends beyond human comfort ranges.

The fish and chip co-op that used to be nearby was the best - trawlers parked out the back, super fresh produce, generous portions and reasonable prices.

A lot of the new systems can use battery powered cameras that are motion activated - they can last for a month+ on battery because they only turn fully on when they detect motion.

You’re right though - if it’s mission critical don’t rely on wireless.

Second cleaning it out - makes a world of difference. I usually shave a toothpick down a little sharper with scissors, then gently fish out gunk and dust.

You said it - money. They want you to have to buy new.

No definitely don’t sideload a YouTube client that doesn’t play ads!

The worst part is it’s not just ‘they’ll kill whales, trust us’, it’s that they’ve cited a study in a journal to support their claim - but the journal says they have no record of the study being published or existing in the first place!

That makes sense - never considered cave artifacts to be an example of survivorship bias before

Yes! Respawn actually released a patch the other week and there’s 1000s playing again.

Titanfall 2 is an amazing game. It’s single player is one of the best - it never gets stale as there’s always a new mechanic, both as a ‘pilot’ (soldier) or in a titan, to master or a twist you didn’t see coming. The story itself is top notch, and it’s length is good.

If I remember right, you can pause at anytime, even in cutscenes. They’re not long though.

Plus, the multiplayer has been fixed just recently so you can vs others in some of the best feeling combat any game has to offer.

I’ve never played the others though, so feel free to go with them.

That’s interesting - in Australia we do have ‘protected action’ that can be taken when bargaining. Basically each workplace in a union has a vote to strike (endorsed by the fair work commission) and if it gets up any action taken is protected from retaliation.
