I remember it being the person with the good pokemon switching off the console at the right time.

Back in primary school I sacrificed my save file, pick a starter, clone it over and over again, repeat with the other starters till we had about 2 of each. Then cloned back the others to me.

From then on we could evolve one of each and keep another spare for cloning to others.

Someone somehow got a mew. So we cloned that to everyone too.

BYD have many models. The Dolphin is a small hatch, the Seal a mid size sedan.

It's baffling. Coming from Australia, most schools have uniforms. With varying degrees of age formality from requiring blazers and ties to simple polo shirts emblazoned with the school logo.

When I was in high school, my school changed its logo, and at the same time made other updates to the uniform. Only there was a transition period, all uniform sales were the new version but the previous version remained conformity with policy for either 3 or 5 years.

There were also systems in place to help kids whose families can't afford uniforms, typically via parents donating uniforms their kids grew out of.

Which is of course ludicrous. Why is education so insanely expensive should include all the materials?

My degree in Australia had some suggested text books, but none of them required it^, and all the content you actually needed was supplied in the course materials.

^ one exception, a computer network admin class had a book for lab instructions. But the library had a set of them sufficient for a lab and limited the borrow duration to 3 hours so you'd check it out, run to class and return it back afterwards every week.

Punished if ever they screw around? Already well behaved.

Hmm, what a coincidence 🤣

As with anything it's even more "it depends". Melbourne busses are slow an unreliable, the vast majority of tram routes share roads with cars and get stuck behind them making them painful in busy periods, and the train network is primary built around the idea of getting white collar workers from the suburbs to the city in the morning and back out again in the evening.

For example, without a car the 10-15 minute trip to drop the kiddo off with their grandparents would be over 90 minutes. It's less than 10km but because we're on different train lines it's require either going all the way to the city and out again, or a train and a bus that runs 3 times a hour with no timing connection to the train.

A university elective, Games programming. Had an open ended "make a game and write report on how it shows the learning outcomes of the unit".

I made a tiny game, just basic triangles shooting squares at each other on the ps1. I developed and tested with an emulator, but to demo for grading I burnt it to a CD and brought in my ps1

Australian here, Melbourne specifically. I have never had to prepay. It's always fill up then go in to pay.

Easy. Release the innocuous ones. And transcribe the incriminating the same way blind people can get descriptions of movies.

Describe the heinous acts, use anonymity for the victims, use the names for everyone else.

In my location in Australia the cost of usage and cost of grid are separated.

I pay roughly 25c kw/h, and each day about $1 for infrastructure. ie whether I use 50kw or 1kw my cost to connect to the grid is the same.

This is for residential, but I presume it may be different for commercial and industrial connections.

John Cullen in his Broomgate series said (and I'm remembering off the top of my head) the best teams might win $150k a season, split between 4 and that's before expenses. So it's not sport you'll get rich even if you're the best.

I upgraded January last year. My only regret now is not getting 64GB of ram
