Riiight! We used to play donkey, for some reason.
Great explanation, too

Hmm... That means eating the awesome, though - and not the rich.
I feel like if we're going to do cannibalism it needs to be worth it in the long run and focus on power structure and not the awesome kids that practise 'athletic self harm with extra steps'

I just heard this again last night and forgot how much I appreciate it.
What's seppos, by the way, is that a racial slur or a perjorative term for something else?

Nasty stuff in those rations, huh?

Everything about marketing I absolutely despise. It's all lies sowing a hunger within that their product will satisfy a need.
A bullet is too good for them!

Far out, that's poignant. 45m and relating hard
In fairness, I'm working quite hard and fantasising about being able to 'check out', so my scenario is more one of burnout rather than 'not ignited'

What's it called when people re-enact battles? Not larping or war gaming - stuck in the back of my mind
Riding into work yesterday, somehow while upshifting my chain slipped off the smallest cog onto the frame and hopped off the jockey wheel in the derailleur - all very drastic, but it suggests to me the derailleur twisted? Historically getting down out of the 9th or 10th gear would need 'a little extra thumb' past the shifters click, that now seems to be the case for the top few gears - but _the rest of the 11 speed cluster works great_ still Does this sound more like I've worn the cogs somehow or twisted / bent the derailleur? If it was bent, I thought it would affect all shifting... It's a shimano HG 11 speed with their reasonably recent chain that's supposed to be really long lasting (possibly intended for e bikes? Mines an old analog, mojo geometron) I should really double check what the parts are (being a Muppet), and get a photo of the alignment, but I'd love to be able to something on my own before wheeling it into the LBS
This is a phenomenal (but short) album, has anyone got other equivalent they're sleeping on? [bandcamp](https://epiphanieqc.bandcamp.com/album/laube) It's _very_ proggy, which I love, but also very heavy. Super-tasteful use (sparse!) of blast beats, etc
 Dunno why, it just seemed funny
I just skimmed through the leaflets and realized they got almost as many as lab/nat. Who do they think they're fooling?

I'm delighted about the chance of this even happening. I'm under no illusions, however after the abortive duopoly review of our supermarkets. But this isn't comcom and had a clearer harm to the community, so maybe it'll happen? God, I'd love to see it revoked entirely, but maybe there'll be some clearer oversight... > The company said it had invested significantly in systems to maintain the highest standards of host responsibility best practice, and prioritised minimising the impacts associated with problem gambling. _As. If._
With Sir Peter Jackson and Dame Fran Walsh buying the land, that seems like a surprisingly agreeable outcome... Thoughts?
I've been starting to play around with rct2 and am amazed at some of the dense examples I've seen - this game is really deep! I'm still using the premade rollercoasters (honestly, just getting the pathing right for them is complex enough!!) and am really struggling to get the ramps to connect without massive amounts of stuffing around. I've only just realised with the elevated ones I can have the path coming off them remaining elevated which tends to help with the pathway / track collisions, but I'm not even sure how I did it! I _hate_ sitting through mindnumbing YouTube videos as typically they're completely uninsightful (rct2 might be a different situation, I suppose, especially being a beginner), I feel like jumping in and learning as I went might've been a mistake... Are there some tips I'm missing and how the hell am I supposed to see the entrances and plan the paths without buying the coaster and hoping it going to work? (I've rebought the same thing several times when I can't get it working!) Cheers
So I've got some rusty old floor screws that I can't loosen with a Phillips head (they're _old_, so I'm betting it's not posidrv). The notches are all rusted and it hardly bites at all. If I drill them out, I know I'm in for a hard time but am I better off going for a really fast rotation or slower? And should I start with a narrow drill bit and work my way up (historically I've broken a few doing this in the past) or just begin at the intended diameter? Yes, in fact I do work with computers - isn't it obvious?
**I've hidden this 'cos it's a dupe and the other has more accurate conversation** Welcome to today’s daily kōrero! Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it! Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc. So how’s it going?
I'm curious what other folks are doing pressure-wise. I'm fairly lightweight (70kg, possibly after lunch? With back pack and water, who knows? I usually carry extra tools, etc...), and run 2.6" 27.5/650b tires. Rear is around 20psi, but it's tubeless so I generally catch it once it's slipped down to 15 or 17 after a few weeks :). I've just realized I'm not even sure what the tire is, but it's a maxxis brand, so probably actually 2.4" wide compared to most other companies - not much clearance on my Intense Recluse My front is usually about 18psi, on a specialized 2.6" somethingorother (pretty sure it's not a butcher)
So, I spent most of the day troubleshooting a website that drastically slows down when 'a browser looks at it funny'... Usually it behaves fine - it's not the volume of requests, my teammates think it's something about the *kind* of requests. But they're struggling to get the logging properly configured. I'm an EUC engineer (p.o.s. website requires IE11 and ActiveX controls - yay healthcare!), so mostly helping on the sidelines, but I'm looking for some 'supportive' suggestions...
