Well, this will certainly be interesting. Prosecuting a Jewish person for anti-Semitism? What’s the charge? Stop hitting yourself?

Yo why kill the Canadian? Canadians are great :(

I love when you bust Gemini (or similar) telling you porkies and its like “haahhah oh yeah, I made up that up, sorry”.

I wish you could set the confidence level for stuff. Like for tech projects where you just want it to read the equivalent of man <application> and then make it so you can ask questions in natural language I want it to be 100% confident of the answer because it exists in the documentation, not made up because reasons.

The strait of delosgutz is well and truly open by the sounds

It involves Brisbane now that you’ve created a second hole in the ozone layer directly above us

Every time I have spare time to play computer games I just cant be arsed loading up a Baldurs Gate or Warhammer or whatever that involves an 18 hour time commitment to embrace the story etc… so I just end up playing a few rounds of TF2, or a level of a Vampire Survivors type game. And then the PC gets turned off again.

How the heck did I used to find time to play 6 hours at a time? I want that life back.

I think its like the dunny rolls during covid… If there’s a temporary reduction in availability but people compound it by panic buying, it exagerates the scarcity to the point where it affects pricing.

I’m sure PHON and LNP are pissed that its come down a bit. Whinging about how “Albo” isnt doing anything about fuel prices was about their biggest marketing ploy and now its gone.

Sushi train for Sunday dinner - karate chicken is best chicken

Tried out Hello Harry burgers tonight… Utter shite.

Tasteless meat, the sauces and pickles are sweet (how??), and worse - brioche buns! So it’s like eating pastry, with sugary sauces, and a patty with no taste.

Chips were also anaemic and tasteless.

Also got a strawberry milkshake to complete the experience… Which is at least meant to be sweet I guess? But just tasted like milk with strawberry syrup squirted in. On the one hand I guess that’s technically all that’s required for a milkshake, but on the other hand how is that $8?

Anyway. 0/10. Not recommended at all.

Nintendogs save file I think

Song of the day!

I haven’t done this in ages.

How about a hurdy gurdy? … A what? A HURDY GURDY! I quite enjoy the illiteration of this one. Sounds like the chef from the muppets.

It’s basically an infinite violion. Stringed instrument with a wheel that rubs against the strings instead of a bow. This means it can squawk forever without taking a break. Sounds like hell, right? Well, not when you have a lovely Irish lass (actually German but she has red hair and that’s enough geneology for me to make a generalisation) singing alongside it.

The genre is described as “dark folk-pop” and I love it.

As an added bonus, Blackmores Night is another band of a similar genre. I feel like this could be from a medieval pub scene:

Typical. Women always have to work twice as hard to get the same recognition as men, smdh.

Also I have my flu shot booked due this arvo.

I hope your artwork improves now that you’re going to be Artistic.

I’ve had half a dozen vaccines and I still can’t draw for shit :(

For “family reasons” is usually code for getting busted with porn or a mistress for blokes. What did she get busted with?

Todays pupdate:

Poppet and Booboo on this day 4 years ago. Unfortunately both gone since - Boo in 2024, Poppet in 2025 (New Years Eve, yay). I miss those dogs man.

Some of their litter mates are still going strong. On the one hand it sucks because I wanted more puppy time and I’m jelly they got more years… but on the other hand I’m happy they still get to have their puppies.

Dogs are rad.

Someone check in with any step relatives he has, this smacks of projection

/c/brisbane group buy, I’m in

Oh sweet… Grab us a carton too!

One of every flavour… double up on the portabello, cherry cheer, and blue lemonade… and triple up on the crow cola, double sars, and creamy soda.

Perfect cheers.

but sadly it doesn’t seem to support my car :(

Fair weight difference between hybrid and BEV… We hit the scales at 2631 KG GVM whereas you’re a petite(…) 1970KG.

Meanwhile my first car was… 655KG lol

That’s the repair kit yeah? where you pump some chemical into it to keep it alive?

You can pump some goo in, but I prefer not to out of sympathy for the tyre dudes who have to replace the tyre next time… And the fact the goo can bugger up your TPMS. So I just use the air pump without the goo.

If I was in the middle of nowhere (more so) I’d give it a go. It’s only effective on small holes though. And many EV tyres actually come with a gel coating inside the tyre that offers some protection against minor holes.

I was told that you have to get special EV tyres but my understanding is they don’t HAVE to be, you just want ones that have low rolling resistance

They need to meet or exceed the weight rating (which in our case is 99XL: 750KG + stiffer sidewalls), and speed rating (which in our case is V: 240kph).

The other thing EV specific tyres normally aim for are:
• lower rolling resistance,
• harder compound to last longer when dealing with lots of torque,
• uneven ribs so you don’t get harmonics,
• usually less rubber so there’s less weight,
• inner lining of foam to deaden noise,
• usually a much stiffer sidewall to handle the weight (thus 99XL being common).

The tyres I’ve gone for are Michelin Primacy 5. Let’s see how they go!
