Honestly, I’d like to double mine (to about $400-500k AUD pa) and only work 40% meaning I’d be on about 175-ish… and it’d be fine. Sadly I can’t see it happening any time soon.
Edit: I know I’m doing well, but I find work super draining and would love to work part-time.
Hyponatraemia occurs when sodium levels in the blood stream drop below 135 mmols/L.
I work in IT and this in no way applies to any aspect of my life (so far)
Give me some save-scumming!
I’m trying to remember this correctly, but traditionally /home is a symlink of /usr/home. I think that’s deprecated and you should now just have /home
A couple of years ago I ended up in the 1% because of one single thing I posted 2 weeks after I signed up purely to generate some rage because so many subs needed minimum karma… Can completely attest to this.
Hahaha, many many years ago that was in a meta tag on my website and the welcome banner for my mail server!
As most said here, it depends a lot. I usually wait for them to make the first move (offer their hand for a handshake or if they go in for a hug just roll with it). Let them do what’s comfortable and let them initiate.
Mine was seroquel. Did not work as planned - made me want to sleep 18 hours a day and suicidal. Ended up losing my job which didn’t improve my mood…
Once I stopped it and started lithium and it was like night and day.
I’ve had migraines so yes. But also I had the ‘brain zap’ side-effects from antipsychotics too and that is very unnerving as it feels like an electric zap in your brain. It makes you wince and twitch.
0/10, wouldn’t recommend.
In Australia I know a lot of people who vote purely based on how their parents voted. That includes people voting against their own interests and refuse to do any research that might change their minds…
Oh shit, I remember LiteStep and spending hours and hours to just fiddle with how my desktop looked. I personally felt Windows 2000 was the pinnacle of MS OSs (except so many games etc. wouldn’t run because rightly the OS reported it was Windows NT and a lot of games shat themselves at that)
Haha, I remember buying Mandrake Linux CDs… I’m a FreeBSD user these days (for the past 20-odd years) but still run KDE. Plus they’re still trying to remain fairly *nix agnostic which is nice.
Yeah it’s a pain in the arse. I 100% recommend Broadcom or Intel NICs for a router. I have a fileserver which has several Intel NICs and a single Realtek one and the latter is a PITA.
If you’re using any FreeBSD-based OS you should manually compile the realtek-re-kmod port. Make sure your kernel source is in sync with what you’re running.

Mine would be kinda interesting. I think it’d be more fun to write because I still have NFI how it worked out the way it did (answer is mostly right place/right time).
A few psych hospitalisations and suicide attempts, dropped out of high school at 15, no degree, but ended up a technical director at a company, burnt out and took a much less stressy software dev manager gig, married, divorced (in a very WTF?! kinda way of us splitting up), lots of interesting psych issues, broken upbringing, definitely some substance abuse thrown in there… Most of that isn’t in chronological order.
But it looks like it might be OK. Everything’s settled down a lot, dating someone, looking to my future and it doesn’t seem as dim as it used to be.
My cats are indoors only, in part because I’m worried they’ll be abused/stolen but also because they are apex predators. I’ve seen them even just playing and they’re… Brutal. I have literal scars from them ‘playing’.
But they’re happy. And safe. It’s OK for them to be indoors cats if I just keep them stimulated. They have zoomies, they get a bit shitty at times but they’re fine.
I 100% agree with what you just said. I used to be a smartarse (and also a dumbarse in hindsight) and have realised the value in de-escalation and letting things lie. There are times where it’s OK to say “I haven’t considered that” or “I don’t know enough to really have an opinion”, even if you do know.
Even if you’re convinced you’re right and they’re wrong, if neither of you are going to change your stance just simmer down and let it go. You’re never going to change each others minds.
I got burnt out between my last job and my current one. I quit and took 3 months off before starting my current job.
Admittedly I had ~30k saved and went through about 15k of that in the 3 months as I went travelling etc. but I wasn’t stressed. I emailed some friends and shot some old colleagues on linkedin saying I was looking. An old friend got me an interview in the first month, went through the whole process in about 2 weeks after that and had a new job lined up 1 month before I was due back home. But I didn’t have that “Oh shit, I need to start my new job ASAP! I’m fucked!!!” panic which was nice.
I was also much more relaxed in the interviews etc. because I wasn’t panicking for work, instead I became super picky about what I wanted and was very open about it. Asked for more money, was open about what I actually want to do and it all worked out. It was amazing - in the past I was more trying to escape a bad workplace vs. going “I know what I want, can you make this work for both of us?”
Same here for the same reasons (although I started with FreeBSD 4.x) and have adapted to ZFS and Jails over the years.
The POLA (Principle Of Least Astonishment) when it comes to changes is awesome too.
