I used to be a street racer type jackass 20 years ago and I was religious about this. Never kept so much as a paperclip in the car. When I was heading out to be a dickhead.

I know 3 people who the police charged with “Possession of burglary tools” for having mechanics gloves and basic tools in the car because they didnt actually catch us racing so couldnt do anything.

Algorithms for randomness on things like spotify cant actually be true random because true random will sometimes do weird shit that makes users think its broken. Like if you put 10 songs from 10 artists on a 100 song playlist and hit random there is a not 0% chance that it will put all 10 songs from 1 artist in a row.

That the governments of the world actively encourage conspiracy theories because in general they foster a belief that they are significantly more competent than they actually are.

I’m Australian and I want to drive across my country. But with a twist.

I want to grab my best friends, all fly to Perth (Far western Australia) on a friday. We each have $5000 and the weekend to buy a car and prep it for the 3900kms back to sydney.

Do our own stupid little top gear adventure.

Ok the salad is a weak ass effort but grilled pineapple, pork steaks and chips is uninspired but also predictably enjoyable and hard to fuck up.

The price is the problem.

Can confirm, I lost 30kg over 2 years. My upper body strength is coming along a lot slower than my legs and core because my legs and core have fat guy conditioning. It’s like I spent the previous decade living my life in a weighted vest.

Pretty sure that the law in Aus is 7 times, but let’s be real if it’s more than 3 times you’re either lost as shit, don’t know how roundabouts work at all or just fucking around.

Theres 2 kinds of men in the world, those that beat their dick from time to time and fucking liars.

Now in fairness we dont know how high end this Sushi place is, if its a place where your paying for the experience its more understandable but It does read a little bit passive agressive.

In universe they are justified because Tyranids.

Tyranids won’t just kill every person on a planet, they will eat everyone, every animal, every tree, every insect and strip a planet back to the minerals and then do it again. They arent immoral because they have no morals.

In the face of that literally anything is justified even if it’s horrific.

Talk to your employer about taking on the role on a “fixed term” basis of say 6 months. Tell them honestly why and see what they say. If you’re concerned about the lack in money see if you can take the 9 to 5 and supplement with the odd Sunday shift back on the floor to prop the wages up if that suits you.

This is Lemmy, where absolutely no nuance is tolerated!

Australia, and our dollar is worth less than yours. Theres 4 of them on Facebook marketplace right now for $5k within 50km of me. Around 08 models with relatively High kms.

Its not a status symbol its a low to mid range car.

I can get an X3 for $5000.

The perception of wealth is not wealth, the people who are the problem have people to drive them.

Nah, thats not it.

The gourmet stuff just seems to be missing the whole point for me, not saying its bad Ive had some that were really good but they just seem to be missing the point. Its never going to be good for me nutritionally speaking, its not going to be served at a michellin star restaraunt. It’s Macaroni and Cheese. It’s like corn chips, I’m not saying that the gourmet Deli ones are bad, but they arent Doritos. That orange powder is delicious because it’s fake and engineered. I wouldnt make Nachos with Doritos but if your after that “Cheez” its whats right.

Well then they stopped bringing that version into Australia, its all shit now.

I maintain that Mac and Cheese is one of those foods that weirdly gets better the worse and more fake it is.

Ive had some gourmet shit and I always think “I miss the old Kraft one with the tinned cheese.”

There was a version where the cheese came in a can and it was fucking glorious, then they discontinued it and now its a powder and its fucking terrible.

The one thats a fucking billionaire.
