I was under 30 when I made this account. I no longer am.
Happy birthday!

Holy smokes, triple digits 😳… What a flex

Added my username to the profile page and messaged that, cause I’m proactive 💪💪

How about an account I created 20 years ago, does that count? 😁
- Comment on New BoM website has rolled out 2 months ago:
I don’t get why they font is so massive everywhere. Reminds me of every boomer with a Samsung in a flip case and their font size set to 800% and full brightness.
Also if you search for suburb name it gives you a list of matches including post code and state… but if you add postcode or state in the search box to try and reduce the number of results for common names, it returns no results?? (i.e. “Inala” works, “Inala, Queensland” does not)
- Comment on Australia Post releases footage of posties being hit by cars as it urges drivers to ‘keep an eye out’ 2 months ago:
Bright fluro clothes, bright red or white bikes and trikes, usually doing under the speed limit…
Still getting rammed on the regular.
At some point you gotta accept our driving standards are way too low, and our punishments way too lenient. If you have a stack, there’s a reason.

Are donations still meeting costs? You say not monetising, but it shouldnt be a charity.

I have literally never seen that bot in action. I saw a heap of deleted posts in a thread once, that was it.
Whatever they’re doing to prevent it being obnoxious is working I reckon!

We used to play DOOM multiplayer by connecting two dialup modems and pretending it was a serial link. Worked perfectly.

I am also not googling for big balls.

I’ve always maintained that the dude who spent like 10,000 Bitcoin to buy a pizza was the first and last legitimate use of crypto.

Crypto

Name a more iconic duo
- Comment on Backblaze is slow for Nextcloud. Any recommendations for faster s3 compatible storage? 4 months ago:
I never had any success using Nextcloud with any type of cloud storage. It was always slow as molasses, even by normal Nextcloud standards.
I just bought a JBOD and store the data myself locally, with a remote backup instead.
I believe it is cheaper long term this way, though with energy costs on the up and up that may not always be the case. Does mean I have super fast access to the content when I want it though.
- Comment on Your favourite piece of selfhosting - Part 1 - Operating System 4 months ago:
I’ve got 30x4TB disks, just because second hand enterprise gear is so cheap. I’ll slowly replace the 4TB SAS with larger capacity SATA to make use of the spin down functionality of unraid. I don’t need the extra speed of SAS and I wouldn’t mind saving a few watt-hours.
- Comment on Why is the spellchecker in Firefox so abysmal? 4 months ago:
It’s even got an Australian one, with Australian slang and swears. It’s amazing.
- Comment on Your favourite piece of selfhosting - Part 1 - Operating System 4 months ago:
(I’m just shy of 500tb and my server holds 38 disks.)
That means every one of your disks is >13TB? That’s expensive!
- Comment on Australian Labor government threatens Signal encrypted messaging system 4 months ago:
Why does Labor keep destroying any chance of re-election over such stupidity?
They have an overwhelming majority where they could push through all sorts of positive and progressive policy, but instead we end up with internet filters / banning kids from YouTube / backdooring Signal / whatever other dystopian crap they keep wanting to pull.
The short term whinge fest about good policy would be completely forgotten by the next election and you could win the public’s favour off the results of that good policy… But instead all we’ll remember is another attempt to ruin our online experience.
Do something good instead of being cunts ffs.

- Comment on ‘If I switch it off, my girlfriend might think I’m cheating’: inside the rise of couples location sharing 5 months ago:
My wife and I have had our location shared with each other for years, but it’s not a “Are they cheating?” thing. I have been married for 14 years and never wonder if my wife is cheating on me. It’s just incredibly useful for seeing how far away one of us is from home to do things like plan dinner prep times, know where to look for a lost phone, etc. If you can’t trust your SO, there is something wrong that you need to address and micro-managing where they are is toxic.
My wife and I are the same. Shared location means rather than a message saying “are you on your way home?” you can just check where they’re at. If I’m out on a late night callout she can see where I am instead of worrying or constantly pinging for updates. Meeting somewhere? Live updates keeps everyone in sync, and let’s you know if you’ve got time to do something on the way or if they’re already waiting or whatever.
People must be in some super unhappy relationships if they see location sharing as nefarious.

I loved healthchecks. It’s so simple and easy to incorporate in to… anything much?

- Comment on WhoFi: Unique 'fingerprint' based on Wi-Fi interactions 5 months ago:
The scientists claim this identifier, a pattern derived from Wi-Fi Channel State Information, can re-identify a person in other locations most of the time when a Wi-Fi signal can be measured. Observers could therefore track a person as they pass through signals sent by different Wi-Fi networks – even if they’re not carrying a phone.
Are there any scientists out there working in stuff that’s useful and beneficial to society? Or are they all just focusing on sneaky shit that makes it easier for The Man to make our life worse?
- Comment on Japan sets new internet speed world record — 4 million times faster than average US speeds 5 months ago:
I’m still sad the original (good) NBN got replaced by the janky NBN that’s taken years to fix.
Malcolm Turnbull is the one I blame most for that. It was his party’s policy, but it was his charisma and perceived technology knowledge that sold it.
And he did it for the chance of being PM, not because it was the correct course of action for the betterment of the people he was supposed to be representing.
Imagine selling out an entire country’s future for a promotion. What a cockhead.

Disappointed it wasn’t tbh
- Comment on Like clockwork, Peacock is raising subscription prices again 5 months ago:
There’s plenty of good content out there, it just isn’t necessarily the popular content.
Would definitely recommend installing the *arrs, and letting it roll on an automated list like an Imdb watchlist full of stuff you’ve never heard of.
