Data Centres use a balance of water and electricity to remove heat from the IT equipment. The water usage is from evaporation. Some data centres use the equivalent of your home evap cooler to put cool air in to the data space and then exhaust it to atmosphere. Most circulate chilled water to...

That's really shit @The Duckmeister. Glad you were able to save some things, hope you were not injured during the rescue efforts.

Relatives tipped 15K into their cavoodle as the care just kind of spiralled out of control with a couple of surgeries and them saying - it's only another 2 grand. Earlier this year they had to put him down as he latched onto a small kid (their nephew).

Black electrical tape until you decide you like them.

There was always going to be a use pays system at Warburton. Yarra Ranges is a massive council with no money - the joy of having a huge area relatively very few people. They have also sold the park on the idea that it brings work and good things to an area that desperately needs options for...

No morals? Even if using AI is the future or report writing and care plans surely she can understand claiming 10 times the hours for that work is poor form. Being paid well for a quick job usually based on the previous years of work put in to be quick and good. I guess if all you bring to the...

Yeah - they were all tucked up and tied together but I had concerns on my first ride that the front brake line might bang on the stanchion when heading down hill. The reverse arch makes them seem very vulnerable. Probably should make an effort to sort out the cockpit setup and tidy up.

No, the smokers had moved on but the dealer came back as I packed up and met up with a new customer. These guys skidded to a stop at the fence when they noticed the people on the other side. I felt like I was being judged.

Got out for a pedal in the afternoon yesterday. Had to park in the overflow carpark as the one at the trail head was packed. Very happy to come back to find my car in one piece as there were three guys in a Saab pulling bongs while a young bloke in I assume his mum's Kluger was doing drug...

@mike14 I know where you are and I have been uncomfortable there as well. What works for me is getting set up before I hit it. I have the seat about half way up to a point where I can pedal easily but also put a foot down if I need to. I like to start in a gear that is a bit too easy so that...

Not too many visit wreckers anymore.

Thank you for the reminder of the joys of Bon Scott. I've been enjoying getting reacquainted with Dirty Deeds and Powerage this afternoon.

I work in a shared office space situated in a shopping centre. I was waiting at the light to turn into the car park at 9:15 when I saw 3 young men with hoodies pulled up and blue covid masks on running at full speed, looking all around with arms full of clothes on hangers. At that point I felt...

Strava shows I have ridden my bike 25 times this year and travelled a total of 383 km. In contrast I have walked the dog 165 times and travelled 460 km.

Woo hoo @Haakon. Have fun. Much more fun than working on cars in winter. can you move to the lounge room?
