Yes. I have seen a lot of grass hoppers, crickets and praying mantises in my garden in the last couple months. And they are not small, very big buggers.

Also heaps of ants, but I think that's normal.

Still shitty, but at this point, anyone buying Blu-Rays and DVDs should chuck that stuff on Plex/Jellyfin and be done with it.

I vaguely remember watching and liking the first couple of seasons of Underbelly.

Looking at IMDB, there were 6 seasons all up, so I missed the last 3 to 4 seasons of the show.

Me:

  • Gets a bill for my tax return.
  • Pays said bill.
  • 3 months later; government refunds me the interest from that bill.

Am I winning?

School uniform for me back in the day was a white shirt, grey pants, and leather shoes. The only "school" part of the uniform was a tie and blazer with the school crest on it. And I even went through all of high school never purchasing said blazer.

This was in NZ nearly 15 years ago.

My point being, uniforms shouldn't be breaking the bank. If schools would simplify the uniform as to not be that unique to the school, they might be able to drive down cost as more readily available clothing could be used to make up the uniform.

micro is one of the first things I install on a new distro. I can't live without it now.

I played Genshin Impact once when it first came. The routing from Australia to Asia was so bad that it actually routed to the US first, than back to Asia.

I actually got better ping by using a VPN to Japan or Taiwan before connecting to the game server.

I must have missed that class in school, but isn't the point of a private school is meant to be privately funded.

Oh makes sense, I went though public education so I probably wouldn't understand.

They have acclimatised to Australia as well. Here's a video showing them making rafts during recent floods.
