Have a great day!
Alrighty. Unfortunately Toshiba won’t be going ahead due to police check issue which is a shame, however 2nd place is happy to match my current salary.
All in all, a positive outcome :)
Woohoo! 🙌🏽 That’s good you have an option… 2nd place is sounding promising in terms of job scope and team members I hope?
It seems OK, but I’m being very cautious considering what’s just happened.
I’ll wait to get my employment agreement before I make a final decision.

Cheers. Good to have a 2nd option :)
that’s awesome 😸🍾💐
That’s great! I’m so pleased for you. When do you start?
1st of April if I accept the agreement.
Bummer about Toshiba but great to hear about the 2nd place!
Awesome 😎

What a cutie!
To my horror I left my little foot heater on for the entire time I was at work.
So glad nothing serious happened other than maybe using more power than I should have.
Should count myself lucky.
What do you call a huge pile of cats? A meow-ntain!
TIL that ozito are not cheap chinese crap, but actually rebadged german einhells, which explains why my $99 hammer drill is still blasting arse after fifteen years of heavy abuse
I rate them. They’re good!

the only ozito tool I’ve ever had die was a garden shredder, that was nearly three years after the fact and they immediately refunded me. They do not fuck around
Got the 18v blower, hedge trimmer, cylinder mower and angle grinder. Took photos with the receipt of each at purchase. Returned the cylinder mower with a fault, bunnings replaced it with minimal hassle. The angle grinder has a bit of chatter (disc shake) on it but it’s never been a problem for around the house.
apparently they have a deal with bunnings to make replacements as easy as possible. They’d rather have a few used and abused tools returned and have people think they are great than argue over abuse or misuse.
Team fluffy is going OK. Hopefully the cat traps come in this week.
omg
There’s another 3 not pictured lol
there are six! omg
Shout-out to my phone cover!
It’s a bulky thing, and a boring colour. But boy has it saved my phone. I usually drop my phone about once a month because I’m clumsy or whatever. But this morning was the second time in the past week and both drops have been hard ones that would definitely have cracked the screen.
The screen is still good as new. This cover has been protecting my phone for over two years now. I heartily endorse it for anyone who can put up with a cover that makes the phone fatter than it already is.
Thumbs up for this as well.
I also had this case from Spigen, it was fantastic and practically invincible. Lasted me years.

My go to cases are UAG and failing that it’s Spigen.
Cases tough as well and have served me well for many years.
“Ding ding ding, and that is the end of round three here at the Melbourne arena. And we can see TinyBreak is getting his ass kicked here tonight, right Jeff?”
“Thats right Bill, this vs match of TinyBreak v Powershell promised to deliver, but it has not gone well today for the self proclaimed engineer”
“Correct Bill. From sketchy ChatGPT scripts, to issues importing the graph module and the outright failure of some Microsoft scripts using the AzureAD module its a bloody mess out there. Frankly, if you were TinyBreak’s coach you’d be recommending he pull the plug on this fight before taking any more abuse”
🤣🤣🤣
issues importing the graph module
Something about the module having >4096 cmdlets and and being too big to load? I hit this last week, it was most infuriating.
yeah forgot to define the scope of graph to users. Was annoyed at that too!
Agreed. If you can’t load it without setting scope, then scope should be a mandatory parameter.
I’ve shared this one before. 😃
Apparently the other place is going to start having paid subs “where content creators can monetize their contributions”. It seems like enshittification is finally coming.
Gone downhill since IPO fo’ sure.
Glad we have this place.
Don’t get any ideas. We don’t have any money to pay for people’s shitposts here. 😆
I know what I’ve got. A stick of gum per 100 posts, plus some pocket lint if there’s a meme attached
oh gees, it was already half unusable what with all the chinese and russian shills
makes sense to protect themselves against Substack and the like though. Always felt like that was eating reddits lunch tbh. cant imagine Shareholders felt any differently about it.
Substack just doesn’t have the same “forum” feel though, that’s what I miss the most about the old internet. BBSes/vbb/livejournal.

I wish my 2nd reference didn’t have untreated adhd lol
Contingency plans have been made anyways. She’s lovely but could do with a human size stimulant pill to keep her on track lol
Edit: all done!
You know what I love most about Gibson?
When I get yelled at for no reason whatsoever. And there is some real sass behind those meows
I haven’t been to Ballarat in many many years. What’s it like now?
It seems so much bigger and I think it has a lot of what I need in terms of moving back to Melbourne (well Victoria) and housing prices is within my budget. It also has gymnastics and other things my little one would want to continue doing so it definitely sounds appealing on paper.
It’s a good location. It can be a little dodgy but so are other places. Everything you need is there. If you need to travel to Melbourne regularly the drive can get boring but you can always use V/Line. I go there more than the city because you can always get a park.
its still 1 hour and 20 minutes on the train from melbourne. my place isnt much better obviously, but my mrs works in our suburb so its even when I’m in the city someone is close to home if something goes wrong and kiddo needs us.
That would be the only issue. If something happens, there wouldn’t be anyone else to be able to get her. I’d (hopefully) be teaching in the area.
Quite nice. Has a country town feel, but large enough to be it’s own thing.
It gets coooold in the winter though. Like significantly colder than Melbourne metro.
Recent years it’s become slightly hipsterised (more younger people moving there) which is great.
Closer to the city than Bendigo, and more chilled out than Geelong (IMO)
Cold certainly ain’t an issue.
Ballarat is beautiful but it is far from the city and some services you may need.
check it out carefully
Coffee day yusss☕️

I’ve lost count of how many I’ve had today.
That’s not good.
