It must be results day - I passed the assignment I half-arsed. One more half-arsed assignment to go and I can see the back of this subject for good, yay! The other subject is much better, the next assignment I get to spend time counting birds in my backyard.

Nice!
Duenan@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Yay. One more to go!
You can do it!
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Update: I ate the pate. I ate pate before I posed the question in fact. Tomorrow, I will let you know if it was a good idea or not.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 5 months ago
please post if you are deaded from the pate
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Will do and I’ll also haunt your arses. Oogeddy boogedy.

Ok, you have me sold on the mock meat bahn mi. I don’t travel that way regularly any more but must make the visit next time I’m it area!
dracs@programming.dev 5 months ago
I used to live opposite the one in Reservoir and it got me through lockdown. They’re opening a new location opposite Melbourne Central soon. Can’t wait to be able to grab it for lunch regularly again.

Full disclaimer: the line is about as long as the line to the jam donut stall at the queen Vic markets on free donut day. Seriously, I walk past it fairly often and the line is almost always like 40 people and stretches half way down the block
Can recommend the cafe a few mins down the road, six points though, I love their bloody Mary eggs Benny. They mix a little bit of siracha into the hollandaise and it’s surprisingly good

Where’s the fucking raaaaaaain?!
It’s so hot in this fucking apartment, but I’m vaccuming, tidying up, all while drinking a beer.
Idgaf
just_kitten@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Is coming but looks like more from 9pm onwards. Later if you’re out east. Mad props to you vacuuming in this weather, beer truly lets you do anything hey.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 5 months ago
I wish I could still drink a beer without feeling weird and sick. Getting buzzed might help me deal with the dishes
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Looks like the fan I bought 2 weeks ago stopped working. Lovely
Duenan@aussie.zone 5 months ago
That didn’t last long. Can you return it?
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Ehhh worth more effort than it costs I think, and I didn’t keep the receipt
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Well you could say at least that model didn’t blow you away.
StudChud@aussie.zone 5 months ago
You know, it’s pretty scummy to buy fans; much more ethical to earn them lol
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Question: Would you eat pate that is one week (use by) out of date?
CAUTION: DO NOT mansplain the difference between use by and best before or I will be forced to severely downvote you.
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 5 months ago
DO NOT mansplain
I’ll bite.
Best before was when I was in my 20’s.
Used by was probably before that.
StudChud@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Um, ackshually it isn’t mansplaining if I don’t identify as a man. Ah ha!
Nah all jokes aside, If it’s unopened, go at it! Pate was made so it would last longer than it’s ingredients by themselves.
If it’s opened then forgeddabowtit
dumblederp@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Still sealed from the shops, yep. Open a week or homemade and it’s a dog treat.
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Agreed
TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Yes. If I trusted the purchase point to store it correctly before purchase. I know my fridge keeps it’s cool properly, but swoopermarkets are another thing again. The whole point of pate is to put a highly perishable food into a format that does keep a bit longer. Refer liverwurst. And potted shrimp. And tarasamalata (I think I’ve spelled that understandably, if not correctly).
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 5 months ago
tarasamalata
That’s the first I’ve ever heard of it seem that word I think. The food itself looks way up my alley 😍
Taleya@aussie.zone 5 months ago
constantly amazed by the speed at which crafting and gardening communities go from zero to toxic cuntishness

Have to head down the bellarine tm. Bit of an issue cause the ol’ boy can’t cook. Huge mistake by that generations’ parents not to teach the dudes how to, even the basics. A few of his buds can and very well, but honestly all that old school gender role shit can get in the bin with this (mums) problem. I know cooking isn’t for everyone but fark me that’d be really handy right now. At least have a go at it.

I wish I wasn’t always tired and stressed out. I wish it was easier to get stuff I need and get things done independently.
Life sucks to the point of meaninglessness sometimes but I want to take great care of Melbcat and grow heaps of healthy food for people that can eat it.

Absolutely loving the assignment result theme today, so chuffed to see highly deserving people being rewarded for their hard work :D
Nearly everyone was on leave today and there’s a huge pile of due-todays and overdues, AND I got lobbed a site inspection from someone who decided to work tomorrow instead of today last minute. Proud that I got through a pretty good chunk of it without panicking. It helped that the only other person in today is very chill and calm. Though they were besieged by tech issues.
About to return home to The Furnace and wfh a bit more so everything is done and ready to be checked tomorrow am. Grateful to past self for getting pizza on special for an easy meal tonight

It’s 21 degrees inside but I can’t get warm, my legs ache and my throat is sore. Nooooo…not this week.

I had a MyGov message yesterday that my account was locked because of too many attempts to sign in. It wasn’t me, so I assume it was a hacking attempt using data leaked from somewhere else. I was able to unlock the account and discovered there is a setting that stops you email or phone being an option for the username, so they shouldn’t be able to try again.
StudChud@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Thank you Seagoon! 💜💜

Still logged on the work laptop (working from home of course). Manager thinks I’m working hard but in reality it’s the coolest part of the house with two AC vents nearby.
Catfish@aussie.zone 5 months ago
So, about those minimum rental standards
StudChud@aussie.zone 5 months ago
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Need coffee
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 5 months ago
I don’t wanna 😞
Llabyrinthine@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Eh, snoozed the day away and got caught binge watching.
Actually enjoyed Nobody Wants This.
Better get shut eye, I haz things to do tomorrow!
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Since I’m recovering from yesterday, today was the sort of day where you action the most urgent new requests then check if Nier Automata mods are working.
I’ve got some long term background stuff I’ll work twice as hard on tomorrow
Baku@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Cause I was away last Monday, I booked in a pre-class catch-up with the teacher so I don’t miss anything. It’s a pretty cruisy unit, so I could’ve figured it out from tonight’s class, but I don’t want to get lost. That does mean I basically have an extra hour’s worth of class, but oh well
Also, I have been freaked out about a dozen times checking my course progress and seeing that one of the assessments due today doesn’t have the little checkmark to tell me I’ve finished it. I’m like “ah shit did I miss one”, then click on it and I’ve already done it and passed
I logged a ticket, and I love their priority levels. One of them is “EXTREME! CRITICAL! EMERGENCY! I CAN NOT WORK UNTIL THIS IS FIXED!”. Anyway, when they responded, they fixed it on the spot and even included smiley faces in their email. That’s lovely. I like that. Not exactly sure what the issue was, but they sent me an email to say they could tell what was wrong from my screenshots, then 5 minutes later sent a follow up to say they fixed it

If anyone is familiar with a “churn defence meeting” I have one this afternoon for one of my clients.
:(
Catfish@aussie.zone 5 months ago
I don’t gotta! But will have to Thursday instead.
StudChud@aussie.zone 5 months ago
Psyching myself up to clean the house for the inspection on Wednesday.
Ughhhhhh UGHHHHHH I don’t wanttt tooooo but if I don’t do it today I know I’ll be rushing around tomorrow doing it. Which is good motivation but also not how I want to spend my Tuesday. We’ve done the spare room, but I still need to vaccum and do the bathroom, and stove top. Tidy up a bit.
But I’m not moving the cat’s boxes. They can walk around them, he lives here too dammit
