5 hours on PT today to see a doctor.

I'm getting myself a cheap car in a few months if everything goes well. Been so fucking long since I've driven. Might need some lessons I think.

[โ€“] Cendana@aussie.zone 4 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Or a small motorcycle/scooter if you don't go anywhere far.

Before covid, did daily round trips CBD-Camberwell. Fuel, insurance, maintenance all up is about the same as a monthly Myki pass.

A big thank you to @dumblederp@aussie.zone for hooking me up with an optiplex. It started without a problem and I've got it running how I want it to now.

Time to check out some of the selfhosting communities and see what I can do with this thing

I had roast pork for dinner and it was amazing. There is just something special about a good roast.

Movie Review. Man with the Golden Gun. 1974 Bond Movie.

So boring I feel insulted. Not even Saruman could save this movie.

Sometimes the only reason to pay some attention to these movies is to see what was the fad at the time, in that movie it was king fu, and the gadgets, which at that time would have been really whiz bang and ahead of their time.

lol, in Live and Let Die 1973, bond had a digital watch, it had a red LED display , a few years before the general public had even heard of digital watches

Another protest in the city.

But the one thing that caught my eye is the number of Toyota Klugers in the police fleet lined up on the street. And then there's us having to wait months maybe years for a delivery lol.

Looks like the cbd and the inner east copped it. Only minor here in Thornbury. Rain yes, no hail and not much thunder.

Hoping this storm is an epic one! On a related topic, what happens to Pokemon when theyre inside Pokeballs? Was it ever addressed cannonically? Are they stuck in there like a tiny prison cell, unable to move around or find comfort? Are they put to sleep or induced coma or something? Id like to know

I can just hear the rumbling now. It's gonna be a doozy. GET THE WASHING OFF THE LINE NOW.

[โ€“] Duenan@aussie.zone 4 points 3 months ago

Hope we donโ€™t lose power today.

[โ€“] SituationCake@aussie.zone 4 points 3 months ago

Got thunder, lightning, rain. No hail yet. Smells good.
