Colour! Silver is boring unless it's a highlight.

Also, that straight line that's bumper to bumper and consistent through the doors is a nice detail

I came here to say a similar thing but you elaborated on it perfectly. Thanks for the instruction and encouragement!

Art of the deal, baby!

Great tangent, well done team!

That's some peak landlord energy, I love it!

Hey this is wonderful news!

Now how can we accelerate the handover??

But seriously, I wonder what the chances are he'll be a spiteful bitch and pass voting control to the right-wing sociopath?

Thanks, that helps

Well, that's great for killing one thing, for sure

Loss like heaps of work, doesn't it?

I know! I wasn't sure when I posted it, so stuck to memory to be safe.

I reckon I've confused the double digits needed for the silly shutdown explanation thing (planned/unplanned, various reasons) instead...

 

Silly question: Having CNAMEs for A records just makes sense, but why can't we have a PTR redirect?

 

A sign for cyclists indicating to perform a hook turn with graffiti "abolish all forms of government"

Dunno why, it just seemed funny

 

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'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...
