  • I live in Australia where this has already been rolled out. I used a sample licence they said "Sam s sample" and had a picture of Mr bean. It worked first try.

  • Can anyone confirm accuracy?

  • Growing up in Oklahoma there were two dishes that confused me as a child.

    Cranberry salad was a bowl of strawberry jello with cranberries and pecans with a layer of cool whip on top.

    There was also always sweet potato casserole which was a tray of thick slices of sweet potato covered in maple syrup, sprinkled with brown sugar, and marshmallows placed on top before baking the entire thing.

    And yes both were served with the savoury food, and yes there was always 10 different pies, ice cream, an assortment of cookies, and homemade caramels for dessert afterwards.

    Looking back, it explains why every single male in the family was overweight.

  • I defaulted on a loan and my credit score dropped down to 500. Still being chased by the debt collectors a year later and it's gone back up to 700 by itself. I have no credit cards or anything. The whole thing is a joke.

  • Wow a white South African in another country being racist, who could have seen that coming?

  • Why are Michelin Stars so highly revered when they originated from a tyre company?

    Jump

  • Iirc it was printed as a guide with maps and stars marking the restaurants locations and given out with the tyres for free. I guess people back then had nothing better to do than road trip to restaurants. It was popular enough restaurants wanted to be in it which caused them to up their game so the reviewers would add them to the guide and it escalated to where it is now.

  • Microsoft is blocking Israel from AI and cloud services

  • Can I please be blocked from their ai services too? I don't want it on my PC.

  • I was in hospitality for 15 years until I injured my back and had to leave the industry. I never sat at people's tables when taking orders, but do you have any idea what it's like to stand 10 hours a day, most days with no break at all? The amount of foot pain? And you get told off if you sit down even when there's no customers. Sometimes customers would rock up and get upset that I was sitting on a stool when it had been like 3 hours since the last customers had been through and I was doing stock take at the till. Like what the fuck. I'm not your servant, you're not paying nearly enough for that. Get off your high horse and get over yourself.

    I now have life long back pain and nerve damage after spinal surgery at 30 because of the stress hospitality put my body through and people like you were part of the reason. Don't go out if you don't want to talk to people.

  • Have you ever hired someone just because they were more attractive?

    Jump

  • I was a bar manager and used to get a flood of applicants every time I needed to hire people. I wasn't particularly picky since I was always happy to train people up to my standards since I usually had to untrain bad habits anyways, so I would only schedule one interview at a time and generally just hired the first person I interviewed to save myself the work unless their vibes were off.

    The one time I interviewed someone where I thought "damn he's hot asf", seemed nice, could answer my questions and he was experienced in the role, so I hired him on the spot. I have never had to fire someone so fast. Dude lost his shit at another bartender for bumping into him, I gave him a warning and told him it would be his only one. Shit happens, it's a tight space.

    Then a customer that was smoking in the alley after we shut asked him a question as we were leaving and he said "why the fuck are you talking to me". Had to tell him not to bother coming in for his next shift...

  • The size difference 🤣

    Jump

  • I used to manage a pub and when hiring new staff and giving them their branded uniform t shirt (that were provided by the head office from the parent company), I had to explain to the girls that yes, you are xxxl if you want a "female" shirt, and yes most of it is boob space. Most opted for the men's xs because it actually fit a human body.

    Unsurprisingly we had a ton of women's small shirts in storage because they never got used. They were basically baby sized...

  • What's the most unexpectedly useful item you've ever bought under $20?

    Jump

  • Not a plastic swizzle stick, a bar spoon. They are stainless steel and have various ends. This is the teardrop, makes stirring ice easier. There's also a coin (flat disc on the end that op was talking about), that is used for muddling and can also be used to stir ice, and the trident used to get garnishes out of jars like cherries and olives.

  • Isn't capitalism great?

    Jump

  • The right wing party in Australia (a few elections ago) increased retirement age but with a "rolling date". Meaning they all get to retire on time with the earlier date but the later you were born the later your retirement age. They literally set their retirement age in stone then fucked younger generations on their way out. It's still currently rolling out, recently increased to 67 in 2023.

    (In more ways than one bit this one is particularly obvious and idk how they got away with it).

  • looking for earplug recommendations

    Jump

  • It was on the pricier side, about 200 AUD, but I went to an audiologist for motorcycle ear plugs. They took a wax mould of my ears and has custom plugs made. They fit so well I could barely feel them and the filter perfectly silenced my motorcycle while I could still hear cars around me and the music playing in my helmet. I ended up wearing them at work (worked in a nightclub for a while) and I could still hear people talk. There were other filters you could get in them, like for musicians. Used then for years until my dog chewed them up. Highly recommend.

  • The Gooner

    Jump

  • It was a big and very busy pub so we had both glassy and bar back. Usually that's the same person but we needed multiple people just constantly clearing the floor and washing glassware, and a couple people restocking the bar and changing kegs.

  • The Gooner

    Jump

  • I used to manage a pub, and I hired an 18 year old chavy kid as a glassy and this is how he talked to me. Ngl, it felt pretty cool. I liked talking to him.

  • Why Does Australia Have This Very Weird Time Zone???

  • He owns our media too, we just don't believe everything we're told at face value it seems. The media was very much in favour of the liberals (our right wing party) this election and it's shaping up to be their worst ever result in an election.

    Not to mention he gave up his Australian citizenship in 1985. 40 years ago.

  • Sonos CEO behind disastrous app exits with $1.9 million severance

    Jump

  • I wasn't able to get anything Google to work with Sonos. I originally had Spotify but cancelled when I couldn't afford a bunch of subscriptions, and switched to my local stores music - which Google also refused to cast easily.

  • Sonos CEO behind disastrous app exits with $1.9 million severance

    Jump

  • When they removed the ability to listen to my local music library from the app I started looking for alternatives. Seemingly perfectly timed for the app to shit itself.

    I found BubbleUPnP. It can cast to all of my Sonos and my Google assistant speaker with zero issues and can play from Plex, my phone's local library, and my NAS. Highly recommend. Three free version is usable but paid is only $7 and I no longer need the Sonos app.

  • Every wonder about the possibilities hidden behind SPORK?

    Jump

  • This checks out, mum gave me a set of splayds when I moved out of home and we're Australian. I love them but my fiance refuses to use them.
