Fleeting/Random/Thoughts

[CherryRed]

No, it doesn't... I have no idea how they make money? Unless it's government funded? No idea.

[kharis]

Be careful with that people around here will just take the whole bin and do a runner.

I have a feeling they might get a better rate for doing larger quantities or a rebate

[CherryRed]

That won't be a problem with us, you can't see our house from the road and our driveway is 100m long.

Most people around here are too fucking lazy to walk that far.

[storm84]

What about on bin night?

[CherryRed]

I don't understand your question?

[CherryRed]

I don't understand your question? Unless you're asking whether people are too lazy to put their bins out? In which case, yes, I'm too lazy to put the bins out that's why I married Disco. Not everyone in our neighbourhood has a driveway as long as ours, we're a bit unique there.

[storm84]

On bin night, your bin would presumably be on the side of the road rather than hidden in your driveway. And that night would be the point in time where the bin is fullest and thus of the most value to steal. So in theory the laziness factor and seclusion that normally protect the bin wouldn't apply.

If our bin was being collected, from our house, by these people, then it wouldn't be out the front for regular garbage collection?

[Mugsy]

Stick a giant bullseye sticker on the side of the bin... And fire 2 shots at it close to the center.

[CherryRed]

Pretty well what Disco said. It doesn't go out to the kerb on bin collection day, you just collect the cans in the bin (which looks like a standard wheelie bin) and then book a Pickup and they come and pick it up front your house... so, you know, they'd drive down the driveway to the House and collect it from there.

Trust me, the bin won't get stolen, and even if it did who gives a fuck?

It's just a bin full of cans, not gold nuggets.

[Nekosan]

On my way home today i see this indian guy going through a recycling bin, bogan white guy comes out screaming "OI I WARNED YOU ONCE, IM DOIN THOSE ! GET OUT OF MY BIN!

[kittycatArcane]

Ah, that lovely feeling of being splattered in the face with hot engine oil - when you're laying on your back under the car and can't dodge!

[Mugsy]

Just had an all you can eat buffet at Pizza Hut with a kids party happening and seeing Aladdin. You'd think I was just hanging out in the 90s as opposed to being on my 3 month anniversary.

[Nekosan]

3 month anniversary is not a thing.

[Disco]

3 month anniversary is not a thing.

It is, but only with really fucked up chicks

[Mythor]

Celebrate any anniversary you want!

Pizza Hut though? Geez.

[CherryRed]

Early on in the relationship is generally when people put in their very best effort in order to convince you that you're definitely onto a winner... so if after 12 weeks the celebration location was pizza hut's all you can eat, mmmm... not good. But anyway.

There was actually a sentimental reason behind it. My dad took mum to a pizza hut to celebrate her first birthday after they started dating. He spent his entire paycheck that week on that pizza.

So the girlfriend thought it would be fun to recreate that sans the spending of my weeks pay on the pizza.

Besides, we were at Browns Plains and not impressed with any of the options we saw. I originally wanted to take her to her favorite takoyaki place but time got the better of us.

I'm never gonna buy another Samsung again. The inability to uninstall or disable Bixby, or even to disable the button is a terrible terrible design feature. This is the kind of integrated crap I expect Apple to pull - I wouldn't even expect this level of nonsense from Microsoft. Next phone is going to be a generic Android...

Isn't Bixby just the biggest pile of steaming shit you ever saw? Siri is a million times better, and the irony is that Samsung phones come with Google Assistant which is better than Bixby (lets be honest, you could put a retarded deaf parrot in a box and it would be better than Bixby).

I don't know why the hell they persist with what is a seriously inferior product.

That being said.. you can disable/retask the button on the side, so I'm not sure if your issue is model specific or what (I've got an S9+ for reference).

[storm84]

You USED to be able to disable (or remap) the button on the side. They blocked people from doing that 6 months ago. So now I'm locked in where previously I could opt out.

[Mugsy]

What generic android phone do people suggest?

Google Pixel or Nokia 6 etc?

I need to start looking now before WhatsApp is disabled on mr Lumia 950 at the end of the year.

[Otto-matic Reiffel]

I'm pretty happy with my Pixel after I replaced the App Launcher.

[Nekosan]

What generic android phone do people suggest?

Oppo, any of them.

Looks like Apple, runs on blank canvas android, cameras and software are excellent.

Also they cost SFA

I use this on my Note 8. It works fine, no root required.
