Mr P finally tested negative this morning. I'm off back to work, broke as a joke! Wish they hadn't taken away sick pay for casuals, would've really helped. I know you get paid a little extra and you're meant to tuck it away in case you get sick, but in a single income family that ain't happening.
Learning modules through work are always a terrible experience. Why are they so clunky and difficult to use? They could just be forms with embedded images and videos
State government ones are pretty bad as well, so much time wasting and they require you to click everything on the page to even be allowed to proceed to the next slide.
I did accessibility testing on some when I worked at the DET. They were so bad. All I had to do is be able to use a screen reader and TAB through all the options, so many failed at that.
Apparently accessibility needs to be scoped into these things from the start, they don't build them with those features in mind
Ted asked to have his face brushed and the rest of him brushed too. He likes it and I think he sees the need for it. Sadly he isn't a low maintenance Neeb he's a high maintenance Blue Himalayan, which explains his very cute face.
Despite mrs b’s lack of enthusiasm, and a little bit more lenience from her than I would like I’ve gotta say the bedtime routine seems to be working a lot better with the kid. That’s night 2 he’s gone down after 2 stories without it being a shit fight. And we’re only 3 days into the routine.
Muscle memory is a heck of a thing hey. I got a coffee at the drive through, used my right hand to put it in the cup holder so used my left foot to go for the break, my brain recoiled cause I guess it was expecting a clutch to go all the way to the floor. Looked down at the gear selector and there was a 3 second delay (though it felt like an eternity) where my brain goes "P? D?! the fuck is this, what do I do?" before it finally clicks and go "oh. Select D you idiot".
2 years we've had some form of auto car now, and for 10 months its been my primary daily driver.
Welcome to the multi club! An infinate array of focus options, none of which will ever seem to be quite right. Plus, as a bonus, you have an increased likelihood of peering down your nose at random items you hold out at arms length whilst still failing to see them clearly.
Is this a bigger place (like Box Hill, holmsglen, Swinburne etc) If so ask them about advice on alternate courses and could they help you enrol at another institution, seeing as they cancelled the course. No guarantee they will say yes, but hopefully they may be able to help. No harm in asking.
But from your previous comments though, sounds like there was lots of stuffing around anyway, so I’m wondering if it was a smaller organisation or private college? If so, probably for the best. You might have dodged a bullet on having a bad experience, they sound very disorganised. Use your motentum to find an enrolment elsewhere. You got this! It’s just a blip, don’t let it get in the way of your goals.
You know how hungry + angry = hangry? Is there a version for hungry + sad? Like I have just felt low key sad all afternoon because I didn't eat enough for brunch. Deprived. Living off digestives until I could get home and eat dinner.
You won't regret it. It's vast, and has so much to discover. The romances are great, the combat is fun (I play on easy/story), and you won't need to know DnD to have a great time.
I haven't done it justice in this blurb, but seriously, it's such a great game. It's different from the games you've listed, but I'd say it's most similar to Stardew with its NPC interactions/romances and dungeoning, with the added bonus of:
nudity
eldritch beings
nude eldritch beings
swearing, and
Karlach
Edit: this is the last game you'll ever need to buy!
It's very built on the Dungeons and Dragons combat/spell rules, which has been a for and against factor for many friends. I played about 100 hours and sort of put it down. I like it. I like the story, I prefer action games. BG3 is turn based and you can save as often as you want so as much as there's strategic pressure like chess, there's less immediate pressure like hungry hungry hippos.
The warm sun streak ends tomorrow. Sigh, it was nice to feel like I was in a warm exotic location, being able to wear shorts without being cold, no heating required, did wonders for my mood.
Gosh it was almost tropical today being down to ONE layer and short sleeves, no heating, window open.... feet not feeling like ice blocks for once... Goldilocks weather.
The temps aren't looking that bad over the next week! Aside from Sunday
my hair colour is growing out and I keep wondering what to do with it. Maybe recolour black and get a cut to even my long hair up. Make over later perhaps, the other seagoons keep saying colour it white and maybe get an accent colour. 🤷♀️
Oh yeah! You gotta have that contrast. I used to have dark hair but as it's gone lighter those brows are suddenly a thing. Otherwise I am blergh. Brows and lippy these days. I do miss dark but can't be arsed with upkeep since lock downs
Does that include the "journalist" who was a member of the Nukhba force who participated in Oct 7 rapes, tortures and burning of children alive?
"The IDF confirms carrying out a strike in Gaza City yesterday that killed Al Jazeera reporter Ismail Alghoul, saying he was a member of Hamas’s elite Nukhba force who participated in the October 7 onslaught".
I mean, you ask Tel Aviv they are either gonna give you evidence they were "deffo" a terrorist. Or they're gonna just admit they dont care and blow up another school or whatever.

@Seagoon_
How about the other journalist who was also killed in the strike? Were they accused by the IOF of being a terrorist and therefore deserving of summary extra-judicial assassination? Is that how it goes?
How about the child?
If anything this strike is notable because the number of bystanders killed was uncharacteristically low.
@Seagoon_
Typo where you wrote "proven"—I think you spelled "accused" wrong.
"Among other questions, the IDF spokesperson did not answer why Israeli forces had released al-Ghoul in March if he was supposedly a military operative of Hamas." @Deceptichum
It's not a regulars club, but when a new poster pops by with a vague pro-palestine message I assume you're not interested in this community and simply looking to spread your message.
...and now I'm looking up custom brass faceplates 'cos I want to steampunk my network patch panel. I don't want a snake of cables out the wall, I want an inset row of ports ports ports
Has anyone picked up one of those refurbed dell optiplexes before? I'm thinking of getting one, putting a massive HDD I have in it, and using it to torrent and watch things through kodi.
It seems like the biggest issue is finding that balance of price and specs. I don't need anything fancy but it's always nice to have some headroom for things like emulation
That's why I was thinking an SFF so it can fit a 3.5 in it. After that I could get some micro pcsfor whatever self hosting projects I think of. I saw some Dell micro PCs going for around $69 a while ago
Full sized ones should be good as a starter NAS. The potential issue with modifying them is Dell use a lot of proprietary parts like motherboards and power supplies. Otherwise you should be able to use them fine.
I think I'd get an SFF one and just put a big drive in it for movies. It may not be the fastest but SATA should be better than a USB cable for reading data
@Seagoon_
I am a newbie to the fediverse and a mastodon user, so I can't see the original lemmy topic. just chiming in to say I am fascinated by the restraint of the combatants over legitimacy on the turf. I am not quite sure how one participates in the fediverse without comments. I can see how this would be considered interjections by some, not always welcome.

So when a terrorist proven to have committed torture, rapes and killed , even killed children is killed for their crime it's called genocide?
Are you for real?

Typo where you wrote "proven"—I think you spelled "accused" wrong.
"Among other questions, the IDF spokesperson did not answer why Israeli forces had released al-Ghoul in March if he was supposedly a military operative of Hamas."

Contact MSO with your concerns. You're not even a regular poster here.

Did you actually contact MSO there champ?
It's not a regulars club, but when a new poster pops by with a vague pro-palestine message I assume you're not interested in this community and simply looking to spread your message.

So that's still a 'no' on actually contacting the MSO with your grievance?

Has anyone picked up one of those refurbed dell optiplexes before? I'm thinking of getting one, putting a massive HDD I have in it, and using it to torrent and watch things through kodi.
It seems like the biggest issue is finding that balance of price and specs. I don't need anything fancy but it's always nice to have some headroom for things like emulation

Both Dell and HP make great micro PCs. I've used both as my work PCs for years (~5 years for the Dell, ~3 years for the HP).
No hesitation recommending either as a file server/media box. Keep in mind they use 2.5" disks, though.

That's why I was thinking an SFF so it can fit a 3.5 in it. After that I could get some micro pcsfor whatever self hosting projects I think of. I saw some Dell micro PCs going for around $69 a while ago

Full sized ones should be good as a starter NAS. The potential issue with modifying them is Dell use a lot of proprietary parts like motherboards and power supplies. Otherwise you should be able to use them fine.
I think I'd get an SFF one and just put a big drive in it for movies. It may not be the fastest but SATA should be better than a USB cable for reading data

I am a newbie to the fediverse and a mastodon user, so I can't see the original lemmy topic. just chiming in to say I am fascinated by the restraint of the combatants over legitimacy on the turf. I am not quite sure how one participates in the fediverse without comments. I can see how this would be considered interjections by some, not always welcome.
StudChud@aussie.zone · 5 pts · 2y
Okay, maybe I'm just really tired and high, but what does this mean?
Is this a response to another thread? I know the problem here is with me, but I just cannot parse any of this 😂😭

@StudChud
@Deceptichum and @dumblederp
exchanged sporting riposte. It was so polite. Not like wikiedia editors who are reactionary libtards dressed as 'neutral' cyclopaedic lambs. Freedom of assembly being an Australian value I hold dear.
StudChud@aussie.zone · 3 pts · 2y
Ah yes, it was rather polite!
I found that exchange funny, because Deceptichum has posted here before, and Dumblederp is a longtime member 😂
All in good sport, this is quite the special place lol
