No but i gave the predator I got from Vietnam a while ago a few fascinators to combat the great grandparent’s ol’ bronze cat:
ts a pacificist just misunderstood.

Sorry. The thought of going out again was just too much
Alamutjones@aussie.zone 2 days ago
2 of the apartments I saw today are lovely.
One is hilarious to think of living in as a footyhead, because it has a direct sightline to the G
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Why yes, 2 hours 20 mins is absolutely a reasonable time to get to Flinders. Thank you replacement bus.

I have seen one apartment I really like, and one I really don’t

I took to the sunshine today. I am no longer a grumpy bum. 🙂
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 days ago
It really is lovely out there. 🌞

Decided on meatloaf. And instant pot tomato sauce. Got a busy month so that will be good freezer fillers.
useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 2 days ago
I had to look up what instant pot tomato sauce was. Is that used on the meatloaf?
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 2 days ago
I did. And I kinda made it up. Onion, garlic, veg, tinned tomatoes and various spices and herbs in the pressure cooker. Enough for meatloaf or to go over beans or pasta or whatever.

I fuckin love my instantpot.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 2 days ago
There’s an article on the abc about how black market cigs and vapea are a huge market now.
Gee. I fucking wonder why.
2 years ago, in their infinite wisdom, the government decided to shut down all the legal vape stores. The ones where you had to show ID to be served. Where they didn’t sell nicotine.
And now, not only has the government’s tobacco tax returned a quarter of what it did 2 years ago, but they’re bleeding money combating organised crime around black market tobacco and vapes.
These fucking people.

Hmm…meatloaf or chilli con carne…what is the better use of this mince???
Catfish@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Thai cakes, but I’ve got a heap of limp coriander making this choice
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 days ago
meatloaf as you can left overs in sandwiches for lunches
beeng@discuss.tchncs.de 2 days ago
Chili, the beans are really good for you.
useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 2 days ago
The chilli has more options for leftovers. I love it alongside eggs for breakfast.

Fuuuck me dead it has begun. Luddites actually believing to the point of argument that datacentres have and will only ever exist solely to serve llm slopshitters
slowly crushes own face in palms
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 2 days ago
I’m going to have to push back here. It’s very easy to draw that conclusion. The largest push in history for data centres has been brought on by the LLM craze. What is ultimately a clever math function that works similar to an autocomplete.
Don’t get me wrong, I use a local LLM for data analysis. The tech has very real uses.
The impact of data centres on both the environment, and people’s well being can’t be ignored.
I wouldn’t refer to people with those concerns as luddites. I’d call them reasonable.
SituationCake@aussie.zone 2 days ago
The current explosion in data centre expansion closely aligns with the explosion in AI services. So yes I agree that there must be a connection. Two years ago 8 billion people we were doing banking, using cloud computing services, streaming movies, storing 10000 work emails each, and all the behind the scenes industry needs, and that did not not need anywhere near the amount of data centres we do today. The AIs are very very hungry.
Taleya@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Nono, i mean they literally think that datacentres only exist for LLM use.
Speaking as someone who’s spent most of her professional career in telecommunication datacentres…
…no

If they were called Data harvesting and processing centre people might care more but I doubt it. The spy on you with all we’ve got centre didn’t test well. “What is this? A centre for cunts?!” was heard shouted from one group.
StudChud@aussie.zone 2 days ago
“What is this? A centre for cunts?!”
Do you guys ever wonder if there’s more to life than just being really really really ridiculously good looking?
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Is Catfish saying Yarrabyte has joined the recent greats up in the sky?
Catfish@aussie.zone 2 days ago
King of Norway. YarraByte seems to have a bad case of dementia rather than death.
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 2 days ago
We’ve got our own bot with it’s own problems but we love it and it’s doing it’s best.

Morning 👋🏻 hoping for some sun breaks today
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 days ago

Catfish@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Bought a car. That’s enough adulting for the day!
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Exciting times. Hope it’s a good one
Catfish@aussie.zone 2 days ago
'22 ASX. Wouldn’t know it wasn’t brand new except for the odometer.
Alamutjones@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Wahey!
Catfish@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Fall over go boom now
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Yay! Good car luck and good apartment luck. I bought a pair of everyday shoes and that is enough adulting for me. They are colourful and comfy
