how do you get the peas to taste like that? they’re not mushy but they’re soft enough to soak the gravy and the flavour is so lovely. I need to be able to do this at home!!!
It seems that over the past few years, the ability to do anything without waiting in a queue has slowly been fading away. I get it, our cities are larger, there's more people, yet there seem to be less ATMs, less supermarket checkouts, less portaloos at events. The march of enshittification seems to have removed the option of not waiting for someone else to do the same thing as you before your turn comes now.
Or is it just me? What have you experienced? Is this just the world we live in now?
That's one way to cut down on complaints I guess... I contacted support who said it's a known issue.
I know I'm a little bit late with this one, since they changed it a few years back. But I have been wondering what exactly the point of changing the methods of payment for bills from having the option to use BPAY, cash, or direct debit, to solely direct debit?
I hate direct debit, I like to be able to pay money towards future bills at my leisure, not just have $140 get pulled out of my account. Especially as I get paid fortnightly, and my due date often falls just before I get paid, so my account doesn't have enough funds, so I risk an overdue fee.
I heard somewhere it was due to people not paying their bills on time or in full, but surely people can still just not pay their bills this way?
Does anyone know the actual reason?

This guy was around my garden.
I moved in 3 months ago and got pest inspection done then, no sign of past or current termites in the house…
Should I be worried?
Can someone tell me what this type of smoke detector is and why it has a constant red light on
