The work PC is now using Samsung 850 Evos and that's been simply the end of any performance "complaints".

Terrible Robot posted:Ask me about the time I had to wipe liquefied poo poo off the toilet paper dispenser, which sits at least a foot and a half above the top of the bowl and two feet to the left of the toilet. As a former shitter cleaner, how in the name of the Lord people can poo poo anywhere BUT the bowl is beyond me. It always scared me when walking into a bathroom you can feel the heat of a toilet that has been covered in a river of poo poo. And then the smell. At that point I'd go look for a hose and a godawful load of bleach. TBH shitter cleaning is a very good paying job if you can stomach seeing how revolting some humans are when they dont care where they poo poo.

The 3.1/3.5 kernels basically are VMS with some principles of OS/2 thrown in. Not many know that some VMS applications would run quite fine on 3.1 and 3.5, moreso on the Alpha platform. A lot of that design principle and even some code still survive in the latest NT kernel. Hence the "joke"

meltie posted:Oh my God. Tell me more Heavy as all gently caress (for a bike), but you can tip it into a corner at just about any speed you can get it up to. Rolls over drat near anything. Comfy. Really handles surprisingly well. Also you can get major air time and it's "Yeah? And?". The looser the surface, the better it goes. An absolute riot to ride and I had a huge poo poo eating grin. It seems like it should be slow but it isnt. It looks like it should be horrible to turn but that DEFINATLY is not the case. Those huge tyres also give it grip levels no MTB can match, so not only will it rip into a sweeping bank as hard or harder than a racing MTB, it will simply outstop anything on gravel. It's very much a love hate thing, at the test day I was at a few riders handed it back hating it, but the lineup got huge as more riders came back raving about how ridiculously good a fat bike is. Also really doesn't need suspension, the tyres do all the work anyway and I locked it out. I wouldn't trade one in as a main MTB, it's simply too heavy and it's not as agile as a smaller bike. But I would see one as a perfect N+1.

meatpimp posted:Gotcha. I assumed Australia would have a similar structure to the way America accommodates its original land occupiers. Depending on where you live, it's actually considerably more difficult for the original land occupiers to gain any kind of benefit. There's a policy called the Intervention that is claimed policy to isolate welfare payments in the Northern Territory so the Aboriginals dont buy booze and ciggies / drugs. It of course doesnt work, it only makes life harder for them. The actual real problem is also of course a lack of services and jobs, the services are being withdrawn in many places due to "cost cutting", schooling is extremely limited and the jobs are usually either fly in / flyouts or 457 visas and illegal overstayers who fly in, mixed in with 3 month tourist visas. Thence you have a population who have no education, no jobs and no hope. Of course they are going to drink themselves to oblivion! Now some programs that NGO's have done have targeted the real issues and have worked pretty well to get Aboriginal communities out of poverty and hopelessness. But also get this - the current LNP govt are DEFUNDING these NGO's and leaving no alternatives to the Intervention! I might point out that the Intervention policies aren't outright targeted at Aborginals, but because they make the majority of the populations int he areas targeted, they are the ones who get bent over. If you are white and live in those communities you would be equally hit but the fact is that whites are more likely to be able to GTFO or get work with a better education. It's honestly really hosed up and the withdrawal of funding for the NGO's is what really is appalling. Those organisations were making a real difference. What really pisses me off about Tumblr SJW's is they poo poo on about "their" version of social justice, when you got actual hosed up things like the above going on and they don't give a poo poo about genuine injustice for a second. And the thing that really gets my hackles up is that actually doing something... like say language services for Aboriginal and Refugees is actually pretty easy to get into and also highly rewarding. I've done that and it was awesome - if somewhat occasionally hair raising when they tell the stories of how they got to Australia and what lead them to run - say an Afghan matter of factly telling of his escape from the Taliban and showing the place he was shot in the leg. Or an Iraqi man seeing a bunch of his relatives blown to bits by a car bomb. Or a Somali who hid in a shitter while knife weilding gangs are raping the poo poo out of his sister. These people are far more worthwhile than any number of fat fuckwit politicans or mining magnates.

Sardikar posted:Just a question, I am in Brisbane but how did you generally get involved in volunteering to for language services? Sounds like a positive and worth while thing to do. Refugee advocate services are a really good place to start. I'm not sure who best to contact in QLD unfortunalty - if you can stomach some of the more insane people the Greens will most likely know. The way I got in was joining in a thing called Ride for Refugees and simply talking to a few people who pointed me in the right direction. Even if you cant do language services, refugee advocate NGO's always need volunteers.

Thw world just lost one big black catte. A very much loved Stig who instead of lingering as age rotted his organs, decided to greet the Grim Reaper of Cats on his own terms and attacked a car. Of course the car won but Stig was the very definition of a cat with 9 lives and he lived far FAR longer than he should have so while there is sorrow, there is still celebration that he had a much longer life than he should have as a kitten he was abandoned at a demolition site only to be caught and gaven a warm home. Let alone how he cheated death at least four more times in the ensuring years. No truer example of how tough Australian feral cat truly are. We're pretty certain he went out at the time he chose and finally allowed death to catch up with him. Nearly 15 but always the cat that stopped me from doing something incredibly stupid years ago. If we live to be as cankerous and old as you did, we will have done well. And now he's up there meowing the Gates down demanding to be fed. RIP Stig, hope to see you one day many years in the future.

Phone posted:Hey Aussie goons, how on point is this: It is 100% completely and depressingly accurate. Campbell Newman is genuinely that loving retarded and Queensland voters that loving dumb. That cola mine is indeed thant much of a loving disaster in the making and yes, they are literally going to dredge the poo poo out of the GBR and destroy a good percentabe of it so coal ships can get to Abbott Point. We have in QLD and federally (QLD is Newman and Federal is Tony Abbott) two absolute fukwits who in all honestly make the worst Republicans look competent and not evil. Abbott is literally trying to put in a US style hospital system, gently caress up the enviroment, put in place the worst off the US college system, remove any safetynet, gently caress over refugees, kiss the rear end of the monarchy and it just goes on and on and on. It's honestly getting beyond satire how hilariously hosed up they are and just how much they are out to assfuck anyone who isnt a miner. The QLD mob were elected with such a huge majority last election that it's almost impossible to see them lose on Saturday (The opposition literally were reduced to the point they could put the entire party in parliment in a station wagon) but at the least Newman is likely to lose hs seat and be booted. Abbott we're probably stuck with for another year but it's looking more like he's going to be met with baseball bats at the next election.

It's true across the animal produce industry too - treat the animals well, they put on more muscle, prduce better and larger egss, spawn better young etc. You literally make more money from not being needlessly cruel and it doesnt cost you all that much if anything in return. But yet farm managers / businesses dont seem to grasp this fact. It's not like it's a thing that eventually happens over time, you can change just about overnight your production yield by applying some basic cruelty free practices. You can change a lovely yield farm into a high yield farm and improve quality so fast it's mindblowing..... it's been proven time and time again. But then you see stories of hosed up farms and you have to wonder what they were thinking because treating animals well = profit is farming 101 CAT INTERCEPTOR fucked around with this message at 11:33 on Jan 27, 2015 |
