I once got a taxi from Sydney airport when I was there for work. The guy tried to go through the boom gate by tailgating the car in front. Broke the boom gate and just kept driving.
Lots of taxi drivers here are completely terrible. Try to rip people off and have had a lot of friends file sexual harassment complaints too.
First two (as others have mentioned) can be symptoms of Anhedonia
Adding to your list:
Sloe gin sour
Sloe gin fizz
I thought of it as a great band name…
Ocean Lab - Breaking Ties (https://youtu.be/g13nsQaCxbg )
Great breakup song if you want to just let it out
John Farnham - Help (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dv54giOSRKs )
This is a cover of the Beatles song. Very different vibe to the original
Realising now my music tastes are a bit weird…
I have a limited edition cell from the Justice League animated series signed by Bruce Timm. Got it about 15 years ago for about $900AUD, it’s worth about $2000AUD now.

I just came back to this thread. What did I start?! :)
Australia is the most expensive place in the world for cigarettes so… The latter. But they won’t ban it because it makes the govt. so much money.
It’s because he’s wearing a double-breasted suit. Not really in fashion anymore.
(Useless fact for you :))
I actually wanted to look this up. This is an interesting article - https://www.newyorker.com/news/our-columnists/the-evolution-of-alexey-navalnys-nationalism
“He has never apologized for his earliest xenophobic videos or his decision to attend the Russian March. At the same time, he has adopted increasingly left-leaning economic positions and has come out in support of the right to same-sex marriage. This strategy of adopting new positions—without ever explicitly denouncing old ones—is probably the reason the suspicion of ethno-nationalism continues to shadow Navalny.”
I personally don’t have really have opinion either way but was curious.
This is my thing. I have about 122TB of spinning metal (with the same as an offsite backup) with SSDs as ZIL and L2ARC. And it’s awesome. HDDs I think will genuinely be important for for the foreseeable future.
I’m trying to remember this correctly, but traditionally /home is a symlink of /usr/home. I think that’s deprecated and you should now just have /home
A couple of years ago I ended up in the 1% because of one single thing I posted 2 weeks after I signed up purely to generate some rage because so many subs needed minimum karma… Can completely attest to this.
Yeah it’s true in Australia as well
I honestly think it’s the best OS they released. Shame so many games would throw a shitfit at the time because it reported it was Windows NT (rightfully so).
That’s assuming they won’t still take bribes, ‘benefits’ etc. from other sources. If there was a way to regularly review, audit and enforce those rules I would agree with you but even if they get paid that much there’s no limits to some peoples greed sadly.
Thing is Ukraine doesn’t have a defense pact with the US. The US is doing this out of (insert any number of reasons ranging from stability in the region, strengthening ties, propping up military manufacturers etc).
The Philippines have had a defense pact with the US since 1951 and basically means if things can’t be resolved diplomatically the US will commit not just arms but fighting forces to the joint defense of the nation.
To quote Wikipedia - ‘In a 2022 meeting, US Vice-President Kamala Harris reportedly assured Philippine president Bongbong Marcos that “an armed attack on the Philippines armed forces, public vessels, or aircraft in the South China Sea would invoke US Mutual Defense commitments.”’
100% My job is to stop the team from feeling all the corporate BS as much as possible. I’m an ex-dev myself so my job is to make sure they’re OK and that thy’re not getting pressure from stakeholders/PMs/POs etc.
A massive amount of tech managers have zero empathy sadly. But I’m the complete opposite. If anyone in my team isn’t doing OK they just need to tell me, whether it’s financial, personal, work-related etc.
