Any suggestions for an easy option for “German food” that I could take as a plate for a morning tea at work? I’d like to make Bienenstitch but I don’t know if I’ll have time so want a backup option.

Kartoffelpuffer? Just don’t grate your knuckles.

I thought those were Dutch. My life is a lie.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 11 months ago
This could be the winner - both simple and the dough and cookies can be made in advance. I actually bought a textured rolling pin to make these sorts of biscuits, unfortunately it is unlikely to arrive in time for this 🙁
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 11 months ago
This could be an idea:

That looks very similar to one of my favourite toastie recipes!
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 11 months ago
This one looks easy
Nath@aussie.zone 11 months ago
Maybe a nice German sausage? Wouldn’t even need to cook one - some of the German smallmeats are amazing.

I emailed the regional manager yesterday to see what the updates were on the upgraded locks and the replacement of my things while the property and case managers are both away. Both updates were pretty much “there is no update” though. Both of them are both MIA today as well, and the property maintenance people at child protection are dragging their feet. But apparently they did approve getting a quote for installing security cameras around the property.
I’m a little concerned about the property manager to be honest, as when she takes an unplanned day off or sick day, she usually sends me a quick message to let me know she won’t be able to attend anything we’ve organised, or she sets up an email auto responder thingy. But it’s complete silence, she just didn’t show up for a couple of things that we’ve had on. Not even a call from her boss to let me know nobody’ll be coming. It’s odd. I do hope she’s okay

Is it normal for an apartment (one of those 2-story ones) to not be perfectly flat?
I received a desk and chair from my employer… the chair has a tendency to kinda roll in one direction.
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 11 months ago
Given the quality of builds here it’s not surprising.
Should it happen? Hell no.
Cendana@aussie.zone 11 months ago
I opened this message while eating, put my legs in the chair, and it started rolling back and only stopped after crashing into the couch behind me.
Baku@aussie.zone 11 months ago
Currently writing this from my bedroom where it’s 2° below what it is outside! Low quality uninsulated house gang REPRESENT!
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 11 months ago
I saw a video yesterday where a building inspector put a level on the ground in a new build and it wasn’t level. Also had water leaks and the like.
Baku@aussie.zone 11 months ago
I wish more building inspectors actually inspected. All I’ve seen from most of them is they take a quick squizzy at the front door, and as long as it closes, all good!

ok I know I downloaded the installer image so why am I looking at what appears to be a portable USB version

No good, thought the box had a p4 proc, turns out it does not. Freebsd reports “CPU does not support long mode” , meaning no 64 bit support. Too old. Debating scavenging for parts, or possibly a hat.

I had to post a physical letter to the bank. I thought it would work ok because it is reply paid so I don’t need to try to organise a stamp. But apprently I no longer own any envelopes. I had to utilise my craft skill and make my own envelope.
Baku@aussie.zone 11 months ago
Ooh I feel like I’m in a minority. Since letters kind of predate me (at least them being commonplace and written casually), I like writing letters to people. Pretty much the only time I practice my handwriting too. Unfortunately nobody ever writes letters back to me :(
Btw you can buy 100 envelopes from Kmart for 3 or 4 bucks. It isn’t a regular size letter (I think they’re A6), but a standard A4 paper fits if you fold it twice (one along the short side to make it fit in a standard envelope, then once again the other way to fit it in the envelope. Also if you (or any family members who don’t post anything and are okay with you doing a little bit of cheeky mail fraud) have a concession card, you can apply to the post office to get concession stamps. They’re indefinitely pegged at 60c a stamp (normal stamps are at like $1.80 now I’m pretty sure). You can only buy 50 per year though

My earbuds have foam tips and they get dirty very easily. Soaked in dishwasher detergent, but kind of just want over ears now. Earbuds are good with glasses though.
Baku@aussie.zone 11 months ago
I love my over ears. They’re noise cancelling too (works much better than in ear noise cancelling imo). In ears always make my ears feel uncomfortably pressurised, small or large tips don’t help. Can’t have them any further out of my ear or they fall out.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 11 months ago
What brand are your over ears?

I really need to get down to the bellarine this w/e and do gutters / lawn / veg patch / another handrail but bro and SIL will be there and I can’t be fucked with that. So insufferable.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 11 months ago
Is that a cough I hear? Best you rest up.
just_kitten@aussie.zone 11 months ago
Sounds like a good idea to stay away from that vortex of drama

It’s raining, I really needed it to stop raining for the next 40 minutes.

MWave still haven’t shipped my damn GPU. It has now been 9 days since I purchased it. I want it a week ago
Actually I really wanted it 3 months ago when I broke my current GPU, maybe that’s why I’m so impatient now

I’ve been reinstalling my steam library onto the new hard drives, but it was saturating my entire connection, so I limited it to 1Mbps while I was doing other things. But I forgot to turn it off before I went to sleep… So this morning I woke up to it having only downloaded 1 or 2gb… I swear as soon as I move out and can safely afford (and am actually eligible for) gigabit, I am going for it.
Another semi related ungratefulness rant: I have been trying to convince them to upgrade us to at least a 100Mbps connection almost since I moved in (we currently have 50), but when I’ve raised it, they just send an IT bloke around to try and install an extender (for some reason I can’t get it through to them that the problem isn’t that we aren’t achieving the speeds they pay for, it’s that they don’t have us on a high enough speed tier for 4 people, particularly with me being a little data hoarder). Also, because of their internet censorship device, he’s never actually been able to figure out how to get it working. I’m actually pretty sure the orgs IT dept don’t have the credentials for the censorship box, hence why the extender doesn’t work.
Also I really fucked with their internet setup, and I removed their internet censorship device, bought my own router, and upgraded all the wiring to cat6. If they send their IT man around again, he’ll realise what I did and probably try to either replace my router or seize control of it, and reinstall the censorship box. The old router was kneecapping our speeds, and then the censorship box was quadrupling our ping, so that’s probably a worse outcome than sucking it up and dealing with it.

Alright, coffee in hand, outstanding emails all responded too.
Lots of admin work to do today, wonder if I should start now or a little bit later. Decisions, decisions.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 11 months ago
how goods a coffee on a rainy day?!
Duenan@aussie.zone 11 months ago
Absolutely wonderful, would be better if it wasn’t instant coffee too!
Baku@aussie.zone 11 months ago
MWave just sent me an email to say that my order has been delayed and they don’t know when they’re going to send it out. But in any case, we’ve passed the next day cutoff now, so I won’t be getting it this week.
I found another 12gb rtx 3060 (same graphics card but different brand) for 15 bucks cheaper at centrecom. I really want to go get a refund and just go pick up the other one myself from centrecom which is only a short drive away. I’d end up saving even more, because I wouldn’t need to pay for transit insurance or delivery fees. But I get the vibe MWave are the type to hold onto every cent for as long as possible, so I imagine I probably wouldn’t receive it for a month. I’m getting annoyed, because I’m sure that when I ordered it, it said it was in stock in their warehouse, and then after I ordered it they changed it to say it was in stock at their supplier. And evidently paying for express post from MWave doesn’t make them pay for express post from their supplier.
Maybe I need to learn some patience, but they just haven’t been very transparent in the whole process, and they charged me every type of fee they possibly could. Bank surcharge, card surcharge, shipping, postal insurance. I spent what’s (for me) a lot of money. I’m actually pretty sure it’s the most money I’ve personally spent in a single transaction ever. It’s actually getting to the point where there’s a little seed of doubt sown in my mind, and I’m wondering if they ever will post it, or if maybe I’ve gone and bought my graphics card from a fake MWave.
