Black mass was pretty average.
The book was a better film than the film.

I really enjoyed the Martian. It was a lot funnier than I expected.

Pulled a paralysis tick out of one of my dogs this morning, it was stage 3, meaning it had lost control of it's limbs. Currently getting anti-venom and a night in the vets. Anyone had a pet with one? Won't find out until at least tomorrow if he'll survive, fingers crossed!
I had one on my room mates cat years ago, this paralysis tick had been on there for days apparently and she wasn't eating and started dragging legs etc. I had nfi what was happening at the time. This was an 8 year old regular mog "outside" cat but she was tough as nails so I figured she got fucked up biting off more than she could chew.
This was on a public holiday, room mate overseas, took her to the emergency after hours vets, they tried to fleece me for SERIOUS cash, hundreds and hundreds of dollars. It cost everything I had in the bank to just to get diagnosed, BUT they did locate the tick, educated me what the go was and removed it. There was no way I could afford the vaccine, which was a dog based vaccine, apparently they don't make it for cats or something I don't remember.
Anyway, she was groggy for a few days but come through just fine, visibly grateful. Started eating the next day, still alive and kicking today. Bought a $5 tick removal tool and she's had a few since, but if you're vigilant they don't do much damage and twist off super easy with the tool.

R dog should be right mate, especially with the vaccine.bobnowhere

Happened to my Sheltie about 9ish years ago when she was 7. All of a sudden her back legs stopped working and we rushed her to the vet. Had to take her to an overnight vet intially and then back to the standard one. She spent about 10 days at the vet and was still pretty wobbly, but within an hour of coming home she was fine and she lived to a ripe old age of almost 15 when cancer took her out last year.

Been camping Z5 news, and vanilla and Compact hit all three main networks.
Waiting on Premium news gut feeling is that Telstra will buy exclusivity.
Anyone getting any news on it?

This is part of what's bothering me. With it being Sunday my usual vet was closed so had to just find any that was open, really don't like going to vets I don't know, the charges vary so much from vet to vet. Expecting around a thousand, worth it as it's my daughters dog and she'd be heartbroken if anything happened. I'll put the new webber BBQ I was about to buy on hold for a few months...

Hey man, yep! I leave Paris tomorrow, arriving in London in the arvo sometime. Lemme get our hotel details from the missus so I can figure out where we'll be. You there yet?

will gently cradle you as time slowly ticks away.
Today I got told I couldn't go on a ride at Gold Coast's Sea World because of my height. I think the last time that happened Bob Hawke was PM.
I'm so happy I can uninstall Premiere off my PC. Poor thing is ravaged.
Anyway, this was what I was working on, the first trailer for Lupinball:

Data retention is starting tomorrow. Which VPN to hide my fetishism?

I'm within the height limits, but because my knees were touching the handlebars I was told I couldn't ride.
To make up for it, they let me skip the queue on the Storm Coaster though. Where I got measured twice to make sure I was within that ride's 200cm limit.

So anyone have any experience playing around with OpenVPN clients?
As I have a GetFlix account I thought I;'d try out its full vpn, but am having some trouble. Namely I think I have it installed and all, but even once I connect to a server my public ip is just my normal one rather than one assigned by the VPN.
Now looking at the connection log it looks like this:
<stuff snipped>
I assume those route additional failures are my issue?
EDIT: Solved my problem. Just a permissions issue.
Did some speedtests. Local servers are fine. Connecting for international servers though and its crawling speed.

For this error "ERROR: Windows route add command failed [adaptive]: returned error code 1", I know to do a route add/delete command, you need to run the command prompt as administrator. Is your client running with elevated privileges? Right click, run as Administrator to launch and see what happens.
Yeah. Worked that out after I tried to use the commands from a shell.
Anyway works well enough to limit what my ISP collects. Of course who knows if my ISP is doing anything yet given how few are ready.
Flying in Thursday afternoon with my wife, Lexi is flying in Thursday morning.

I've had a work meeting in Geelong inserted into my only holiday this year on the Thursday so I'm not sure if I'll be available that day any more.
PAX schedule is up here btw.
PAX schedule is up here btw.
ugh looking at the lineup, I really wanna go to pax
saturday & 3 day are already sold out, but a lot of the sessions on friday really appeal to me
(especially the rpg gaming/tabletop ones)
I don't have $60 spare though
and even if I go I don't really have any friends I know who are going
also its been about 3 years since I've last been to a con, and i've never been to pax

going to a con by yourself would be a first for me
Do it, I go to conventions alone all the time. I get to go the the events/panels I want and I meet a few random people.
I've got a Saturday and Sunday pass, but it's increasingly looking like I won't be able to go on the Saturday, which sucks a little as there's a few good panels on that day. At least there's Sunday, I guess.
I won't know if I'm not going on the Saturday until next week, but if that's the case I'll whack the pass up on here if any Ausgaffers are interested.

If the friday tickets doesn't sell out by this friday, I will have enough to scrape up to buy one

Going to cons alone would be fine, once you're in there it's busy as fuck and hard to talk to each other anyway!
The Getflix VPN has been working really well for me.
Most of the panels I want to see are pretty spread out over the 3 days. I wonder if they put the Uncharted 4 and Witcher 3 panels on Sunday to boost Sunday sales.
I can't navigate that schedule for shit... is Ludlam doing any kind of talk again this year?
Yep, got here yesterday, I'm working up near the welsh border, but am heading back to London on Saturday morn. So Saturday arvo is probably the best time for me if that works
Is anyone playing undertale? I think I'm in love.
uuh, Japanese immigrants in the Australian Military in WWII
Englands sounds much more fun though
Ooo, nice.. sounds learned!
Workwork work. Then 2 days in London for myself then fly back home to work!
