Lemmington Bunnie

Yeah, I’m sorry, I had to stop reading when I read that they own not just one but TWO homes. I saw red.

Meanwhile, I’m relatively terrified that my retirement will be living in a cardboard box under a bridge after suffering from multiple strokes based on family history.

I agree with your terminology - updating is for often small incremental software patches.

Upgrade would be a complete program overhaul, or more commonly in my use of it, a change to a newer, better physical product.

Every time I see these ridiculous solutions being proposed, I get so frustrated. My partner and I are trying to do the right thing, saving and not stealing from our future selves - but we’re competing against these insane policies that do nothing but drive up the price even further.

We just met our original goal, but the cost of a home in our regional area has pretty much doubled since we moved back after giving up on Sydney a few years back now, so we’re no further ahead.

My hands are also tiny and smol, and I’m also clumsy, but I have no issues with my S23 Ultra. 🤷🏼‍♀️

That completely stopped working for me a while ago, but Samsung’s Reminders app was able to do it well.

I started using it instead, and the other day, uninstalled the Google Assistant app - the only time I was opening it was by accident, when I’d drift off to sleep holding my phone, and he rudely awoken by the noise it made.

I gave up on it entirely probably a year or so ago, as I found if anything it was getting worse.

We have to deal with them at the moment because we’re staying with an elderly relative and her house, her rules - fair - and she is worried about switching providers. If something did go wrong and she lost her number, it would be pretty awful. So we’re stuck with Telstra.

We’re on our third modem with them in a little over a year (had to get a decent one, working from home). The absolute shit fight to get it replaced each time only served to reinforce that we are entirely correct on our views of their business. They have made it as tangled a web as Centrelink (another org that we have luckily not had to deal with in some time), and their customer service is basically non existent.

To their credit, their store staff did their best to help but their hands were so incredibly bound by red tape that there wasn’t much to they could do. Also, the credit we were promised after the second go around was never applied to the account. Wasn’t worth our time to chase it, because we actually value our time and have wasted enough of it.

And that’s just one consumers experience.

The stuff they do on a national level is absolutely shameful. They need to be broken up.

What didn’t they do.

Or, what have they done that’s worthwhile.

Bunch of parasites.

Just assume they all are - I’d be willing to bet it would be the cheaper option than paying staff to sift through the reports then refunding the legit ones.

Burn it all down and start fresh.

I’m absolutely horrified that tipping is still as high as 8% for those who do tip.

Get that absolute nonsense out of our country. It benefits no one and will only do great harm in the long run. Just look at the mess that is American hospitality.

Yep, if it connects to an external audio device first - sometimes it does connect but then disconnect, but usually it works without issue!

I have mine set to go to Airplane mode when it pairs to my car’s Bluetooth.

It stops me being distracted by calls but allows me to listen to my music.

Yeah it was more the cutesy picture that threw me off. Most of the meat I buy just has a silhouette of the animal in question.

I guess it’s not the worst idea to have a greater understanding, and hopefully respect, of where your food comes from.

Meet your meat!

My first thought - aww, what a clever little bolt, and cute to boot!

I miss those features so much - I was also one who had the Googlillusion shattered by the discontinuation of Inbox.

Me waiting for Inbox features to be incorporated into Gmail:

It’s two words, but we call them “bloody tourists” in Australia.

We called ourselves that when on our recent outback adventure.

When I was a kid, I’ve asked for a specific toy before. I think you can, or could, even buy them separately without purchasing a meal.

I keep thinking of the monoblock as the monolith from 2001. But with water cooling tubes sticking out of it.

I don’t want to look it up because I like the picture in my imagination.

I’m so confused, I literally thought that the “what goes where” section headers were around the wrong way.

I also agree with your point about not being too strict when we’re wanting the community to grow.

I was so ready to drop $10-15 AUD without a thought, but at $25, I’m sticking with Connect.
