I think you can nap. As evidence I present the scene where Rita and Larry go to the morgue to identify Phil’s body. This suggests that the time loop continues the day beyond Phil-specific events (like death, and naps)

- Comment on Do Australians in the northern hemisphere celebrate Christmas in July to have a Christmas that reminds them of home? 3 weeks ago:
Australian xmas is a mishmash, you take cold traditions and make them warm, the food is similar but different, outdoor sports or swimming are common, it’s easy to get around
For my money breakie and presents with one family then lunch with another, prawns from the barbie, roast ham served cold with salad, beers by the pool and backyard cricket make for a distinctly Australian xmas
If that’s just a Winter Xmas to people from the Northern Hemisphere I’d be surprised

I’m going to a Christmas in July party in Australia tonight!

Thanks so much, agree that any repair attempt would be one and done

I’m pretty I bought it only a year ago, but I’m not 100% sure where and can’t find the receipt

Thanks. It seems wasteful to throw it away but I’m working on my loss aversion 😉 and technically the blanket is still a blanket, just less warm

Thanks, you’re my own personal Big Clive
I’ll take care, I definitely don’t want to burn the house down

Thanks!
- Comment on Is this soldered controller repairable by an amateur? 1 month ago:
Awesome thanks for that. I think it’s worth doing once, it it breaks again I’ll take the hint, and I’ll also make sure I plug it in outside on an extension

Thanks, as a learning exercise I am willing to have one good go before I turn the electronics into waste, but if they blow again that may be the end of it
I’ve been given an opportunity to ask ‘genuineparts’ where I should buy parts 😉 (I’m in Australia)
- Comment on Is this soldered controller repairable by an amateur? 1 month ago:
Thanks, if that is the pad below the resistor I assume that component is also damaged and would likely replace it as well. I’ll do some searching and reading on the capacitor, is a U1 chip something generic or will it have markings to indicate specs?
- Comment on Is this soldered controller repairable by an amateur? 1 month ago:
Thanks. Can you help identify what the components are? It would be interesting to at least have an idea what the failure mode was. It appears burnt but there was no smoke and no apparent smell until I opened the case days later

- Comment on Fatphobia Is Fueled by AI-Created Images, Study Finds 1 month ago:
The headline is not only bait but also wrong
At best, they could claim that AI-generated images are fueled by societal associations of negative attributes with obesity
And surely the use of the word phobia in an academic context should be more rigorous

As a technology article this is interesting
Not sure why they feel qualified to make statements like this:
“When ineffective policy results in a large chunk of the populace generationally living in yurts on the outskirts of urban areas, it’s clear that there is failure.”
- Comment on Taxing actual rather than unrealised super gains would mean ‘significant’ costs for millions of Australians, Treasury says 2 months ago:
This is a good article
TLDR:
Super funds already calculate your change in value of super assets, but not the taxable income on an individual basis, therefore the current proposal is minimally burdensome compared to only taxing realised gains

- Comment on Can someone explain Australian parties to me? 3 months ago:
It’s preferential FPTP, if no candidate gets 50% the lowest vote candidate is eliminated and preferences are distributed, repeat until there is a winner
Labour is centre-left Liberal/National Coalition is centre-right but ran on a further right platform and had their arse handed to them Greens are left Most of the Teal Independents would be considered left to centre-left There are a variety of fuckwads running right to far-right platforms (Seriously, what kind of cunt do you have to be to think Palmer or Hanson could run a country anywhere other than into the ground)

- Comment on Free Software Foundation rides to defense of AGPLv3 5 months ago:
Clause 7 of the AGPLv3
"All other non-permissive additional terms are considered “further restrictions” within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is governed by this License along with a term that is a further restriction, you may remove that term.”
This exact situation occurred - the program was licenced under the AGPL plus further retrictions, which the receiver was free to remove and redistribute
