Ever since 2016 I really don't trust the average "normal" American to go out and actually vote.

Back in the land of the frozen toes, but I now have a dwelling with a split air system. I'm actually a little surprised at how well it heats. Even beats the portable fancy schmancy Dysons.

I am looking forward to actually being able to sleep through hot weather (although the weird fan in the face thing I had going was working reasonably well).
On my usual weird side notes because, you know, I'm always late to the party... I did discover Acrobat can search within PDFs in a folder. I lament past me for the amount time I have wasted remembering something and then manually searching through endless individual PDFs to find said something. Such a basic thing.

You are an absolute legend!!! Annotated graphic and all - thank you so very kindly. I will be saving this for use in the near future and will think gratefully of you
Sleep school is alright. This facility is really nice and the staff are great. The food is a little lousy, which is to be expected. It's pretty much hospital grade microwave meals, but they're provided and you're free to head out and do whatever you want.
I should have taken the week off but with how everyone was feeling last week it was still up in the air.
Picture it, late 1990's. @mysticgreg is working in Sydney and living in the southern suburbs, right near one of the early Oporto stores. IT WAS GLORIOUS. Double-Bondi burgers with tender, juicy chicken fillets bigger than your head, and chilli hot enough to melt the paper they came in. Rappas so good they would launch you into another dimension.
Time moves on, I return to Victoria. Decades later I stumble upon an Oporto and think OH YES, IT HAS RETURNED TO MY LIFE. I order. I unwrap the food. I look confused. I taste it. I cry. I mourn. I leave.
I went out of my way to try one when they first came to Australia, and underwhelmed is an understatement.
It's basically Hungry Jack's, but somehow worse.
I remember trying Oporto when they first opened a store in Chapel Street. A good friend of my ex-gf insisted we try a burger at this joint that's like Nando's but 1000x better.
Even as we were trying to find parking at midday in the side streets of South Yarra, insisted it would be totally worth it.
(This would have been around 2004-ish?)
I was dubious, but went along for the ride.
And I remember that it was actually not that bad.
And that's not something I've ever felt eating their food since then.
@mysticgreg Unfortunately, they're now owned by the same conglomerate that turned Red Rooster into a home brand KFC knockoff. And also Chicken Treat (ask your friend from Perth, they'll tell you).
My second horror movie set at camp was Stage Fright starring Minnie Driver for all of 2 seconds and Meatloaf fresh from his Grand Final performance.
Set at a musical theatre camp, the killer hates musical theatre and wears a Wish version of the ghost face mask and it's pretty obvious who it is under the mask. Motivations are nonsensical as well. But the musical parts were rather catchy.
Pineapple (raw) has a LOT of enzymes in it - which is why you can't set raw pineapple in jelly cos the enzymes denature the proteins in the jelly. Also, its a bromeliad, and a very 'primitive' plant, so has evolved a lot of chemical defenses. That burning/tingling sensation also means that the pineapple wasn't quite ripe enough. I get this reaction too, but not everyone does. Not my favorite fruit.
EDIT: same thing with monstera fruits - the little black bits can seriously sting if not scraped off.
I've been helping the old man with building a medical registry for the last decade. It ended up being a really interesting project with a lot of stats (and a great bonding thing). Anyway he's giving a talk soon so helping him out with the powerpoint stuff scanning things etc.
Last night he showed me:

One of the first survival graphs (it was the original document) for the precursor to that sub-specialty. My jaw dropped. What it shows is how quickly things were moving at the beginning and how they were all over it in the early 50's. No software, just a pen and typewriter.
It's pretty cool. I've come across papers on JSTOR and other research that always makes me think: a) they already knew all this?! b) our whole health literacy is not great. (Like being sedentary is not good for you? Yeah, they were already writing about that in the 50s.)
I'm still a bit disappointed that they didn't tell me it was out of stock until after I gave them money, but shit happens, I suppose.
Mwave have a history of doing this shit. Its because their stock estimates are based on if their supplier could have it, rather than does have it or something like that. So you often have to wait on it arriving at their warehouse and their staff just has to delay and lie about it
Movie review. The Englishman Who Went up a Hill but Came down a Mountain. I decided to watch even tho it had hugh grant
I grew up watching all those 40s and 50s brit B &W movies, the Powell stuff, all the war stuff, the david lean, the lavendar hill mob/ealing stuff, anything and everything from rank and elstree studios. I watched The Corn is Green and that movie based on The Citadel ( about coal miners )
And none of them were as fucking twee as this.
a town full of genuinely nasty people and they made it cute
and yet there is some real pathos here, these towns really were hit hard by the tragedy of lives lost in wwi
This movie was filmed with a grant from the EU. The town where this was filmed voted leave in Brexit. Now there is no more EU money to help support backward towns in rural Britain. .
100 hobbits indeed
PS, some lovely cinematography , also big music for a little story
After watching Twisters last week (actually really enjoyed it!), I had a dream last night in which a team created a giant shipping box that they managed to “tornado proof”. A huge tornado was coming, so we were pulling people into the box and bought in a little ship with these 5 alien creatures who we thought we were cool with. It then got... a little gory.
::: spoiler spoiler
Then someone insulted them and one of the aliens just took a bite out of his shoulder, then all 5 just set to devouring everyone. And when they ate them, they managed to like, take on part of their personalities, but then make mockeries of them. Like one person enjoyed watching Tom Cruise movies, so they made Tom Cruise jokes while wiping the blood off their faces.
:::
Earlier in the night I dreamed that there were 2 islands just north of Auckland that claimed to make the best chocolate chip biscuits and they were in a bit of a war about it and I was trying to choose which one to go do a tour of and it was getting real nasty between them.
Watching the olympics and I joked with the Mrs “how funny would it be if this block island was just down at like, Cowes or something”
She goes “yeah philip island was a strange choice”
I go “what?! They are actually doing it on Philip island?! You’re shitting me!”
“Nah, they announced it ages ago I’m pretty sure!”
“But they are sprooking it as some fancy tropical thing! And they’re just doing it down the island? You’ve gotta be kidding me! You can fucking drive there!”
Getting close to the end of BG3 I think. I'm very excited. But now my brain occasionally just shouts at me
"LIVES! All mortal lives. Expire. Souls go to their dooms, In flame, forevermore"
It’s so far not my thing it’s not even funny. I’m not a dnd guy or a magic/fantasy fan.
With that said: It's one of the best games I’ve ever played. Deffo the best thing since horizon forbidden west.
Same! Trust me you'll love it. the first few hours is.... frustrating. But push through.
One piece of advice: the game "implies" that a long rest is... lets say "dangerous" for a few reasons. but its not, it just doesnt do a good job of explaining itself. dont hesitate to long rest to restore spell slots and health.
