I hesitant to say that this shouldn’t affect you. I’m sure that somehow, somewhere, Optus still managed to ruin your day. Hope it resolves SynopsisTant.

There are no changes to the nbn wholesale pricing of these speed tiers arising from the speed increases.

Interesting, but how will this affect the price for end users? There are other fees charged to the ISPs too?

I am suspicious because NBNco only mentions wholesale pricing in this article, not end user pricing. They would have modelled it and then chosen not to talk about it. They might not technically be the entity finally billing you, but they’re responsible for strong and direct impacts on what users pay.

It’s a gorgeous game experience. Not to mention they put so many other gamedevs to shame with their technical accomplishments (especially in the expansion – flooding waves in a ringworld!).

Don’t look up spoilers. Get yourself a copy and play it. Find somewhere to land your spaceship :)

Ditto three. Pages hanging too.

Lots of gastro cases in NSW the last few weeks, maybe server has it too. Make sure to take plenty of fluids.

The leakage scenarios for alkaline cells never seem to make sense.

I would recommend rinsing the vinegar away with water instead. It’s already completely dissolved, but the baking powder might not be if you add that undissolved. You don’t want to leave anything behind.

Atomic wafers made by the techo-church-state? Or have I got this back to front and this is how the non-technical society irradiates its children?

Comedy prediction: SD2 releases overseas, but Australia is used to sell remaining stocks of SD1s for a few years before the SD2 is released here.

The whole thing is vaguely and noncomittally worded, it promises basically nothing.

Take this bit for example:

taking into account the EULAs of specific games within it

In other words: talk to the individual publishers of each game and get their permission :P At which point GOG’s involvement is almost irrelevant, if you have the publisher’s consent then they might as well give you a copy.

I would assume that court orders and proved wills have different levels of coercion when you present them to someone like GOG? Dunno. Each country probably has its own rules, including fun complexities like whether or not GOG was a party to the process or not.

Title of PCGamer’s article is misleading, they want a court order to do it. Proof of death is not enough.

“In general, your GOG account and GOG content is not transferable. However, if you can obtain a copy of a court order that specifically entitles someone to your GOG personal account, the digital content attached to it taking into account the EULAs of specific games within it, and that specifically refers to your GOG username or at least email address used to create such an account, we’d do our best to make it happen. We’re willing to handle such a situation and preserve your GOG library—but currently we can only do it with the help of the justice system.”

They have to do that anyway. Court orders overrule a company’s policies in most (all?) legal systems.

I assumed this was an XKCD when I saw it.

Appreciated Minty :)

Suicide Squad: Less interesting than discussing linguistics xD

Took me a few tries to understand.

All dementia is different and difficult in different ways, so I don’t want to claim my experience will be the same as yours.

Both my grandmothers have been in full time care of my parents until recently. One with strong dementia and depression, the other mild dementia but argumentative. It was very stressful for my folks, particularly with one being a nightly wanderer and fall risk.

Government support packages were hard to navigate but they did get some at home assistance. We had a really nice carer come in a few days per week to help with showers and a little bit of cleaning, but the company behind them was awful to deal with and would try to reschedule or cancel all of the time. Definitely still worth it though.

Getting carers allowance (money/week) took a lot of paperwork. It was not much money, but it was something.

Now my parents only care for one of my grandmothers and only for half of the week (family is now taking her for the rest). This is still difficult but much more manageable.

My other grandmother is now in a nursing home. This was really hard for everyone, both emotionally (family saw nursing homes as places you go to die) and practically (first nursing home run by the Salvation Army was neglectful; hospitalised after 4 days). It’s working out much better now, my grandmother seems to be going OK (on average, the dementia and depression are intermittent) and the family is coping better with just occasional visits rather than 24/7 care. x

If your loved one lives alone: get a doctor’s advice and get them assessed. There are support services for them that can come in and help them occasionally.

If you are taking care of them full time: the government offers a few weeks of “respite” every year. This is essentially temporary nursing home stays, fully paid for. The idea is that you are a better carer if you take breaks; and this also lets you see how they respond to a nursing home without committing.

For nursing homes: visit them and try them out first with respite. They vary a LOT in terms of what they can cope with and what their staff are like.

It’s not land banking. It’s land investment. We’re making the land better, more luscious, stronger.

Did mine last year. Took a little while to get results back, but it was really nice to see everything was OK in the yard and veggie patch. My garden has had lots of treated pine timberwork for decades (some CCA treatment type).

Perhaps the software OP is using has a second layer of generation (with a different network) that focuses on details like eyes. It might not even know the input prompt (and if it does then it might not have the training background to reward keeping things pixelated).
