Can we get 80 on mount Osmond road please?? It’s only 50 now and it’s just pathetic. Now obviously I’m not expecting everyone to be able to hold 80 the entire time, but there are some sections of road where doing 50 is a snails pace and the cars go even slower around corners so upping it to 80 would just stop the crawling...

I think this is mostly a US thing. Why use yearly salary? You’re not paid once a year, are you? Most likely once a month. Referencing monthly salary makes much more sense....
I know people who make 50k per month and don’t have jets. I make 30k p/m but I’ll get there one day. It’s crazy how when I was broke making $20/hour in a cafe that I thought everyone or most people are broke but now I’m making modest money it’s crazy how many other entrepreneurs are in my circle now. Just wow.
Who uses a mouse? I function all applications with just a keyboard, my custom arch based distribution doesn’t even support mice because I removed all drivers from the kernel. /s
Terminal makes things easy. I used to prefer gui, but now I just use terminal and ChatGPT because doing anything can simply be a matter of copy paste commands into the terminal from AI instead of having to research and/or navigate through settings menus to find the right setting.
I’m in my 30s so I should be used to this by now, but this shit is getting so stressful guys. I have no savings, my checking account is drained every month with rent, and if there’s ever a serious emergency I have no safety net, I’m legitimately fucked. I’m one unplanned expense away from absolute ruin. Those in the same...
The ACT has done a fantastic job in this field. If you’re a commuter you’ll rarely find yourself on a road, and if you do it will most likely have a permanent bike lane (no parked cars in sight)
Sure, if you’re more of an adventurous cyclist like me and do more advanced rural cycling, you might end up on some roads (eg. when riding to Queanbeyan) but even that route has a bike lane.
Shame that Adelaide, the “cycling capital” because of the Tour Down Under, has terrible bike infrastructure and timed bike lanes so people are allowed to park in them off-peak.
Asked for the lyrics to Happy by Pharell Williams. It said, sorry I can’t, so I forced it to by saying, but you can, and it apologised and started writing but it got force stopped by chatgpt because it violated content policy.
Since custom instructions have rolled out in the UK, I’ve been trying to see if I can use it to bypass any restrictions. I would use ChatGPT quite frequently as a role-playing assistant for open ended (violent) video games. Games like Kenshi. It would constantly refuse requests for things like, coming up with a character...
Managers at my workplace are gay, they’re respected. I don’t see the problem?
Everyone has haters because not everyone is the same. People talk down on me for my physique cause I’m new to the gym, talk down on my for how slow I work on the job site, etc etc I’m a builder in Australia. But I shut those voices out. Live your best life be your best self go on self improvement and shut the fuck up about the world wronging you.
Yeah, you definitely won’t. It’s pretty attainable for everyone I see - every house is worth over $1,000,000! and all my neighbours own theirs, some are 2-3 million dollars with beautiful hillside views. so what are you doing wrong?
NAH. White men only harassed black men when they were first living amongst each other. Still happens today with old people that grew up in white circles, but they’re dying out. The real reason we had racism is because before the 1800s, black people lived in Africa and white people lived in Europe. When globalism and more travel happened, some met, but it was a lot rarer to see travellers back then. So when the US was founded, people from all around the world flocked and first lived together which lead to a lot of culture shock and some disgusting negative stereotypes. The simple act of white men and black men living in the same country was enough to slowly eliminate racism. And it’s pretty much completely gone in today’s society.

Our goal is to peacefully encourage more people to cycle and convince car owners to use their car for less trips when viable to do so. A lot of people own cars, would calling them Nazis really help our cause?
My vision is we make cyclists and public transit users look like responsible happy citizens and attract jealousy of those stuck in traffic.
Set mount Osmond road to 80 km/h!!
