    What video game are you currently playing?

    Dawn of Man Dawn of Man It's a slow but very complex game and I'm really liking it so far. If they fix the graphics glitches and a few bugs I might even buy it. (always try before you buy)

    Atopic dermatitis

    I've always used a glycerine based soap, most soaps are made from animal fat. I also don't wash my hair very often, shampoo always triggers bad dandruff but that's not what really bothers me, I can't stand the smell of commercial perfumes.

    Some flowers are sensitive to PH levels and you can change their colour by making the soil more alkaline or acidic. My grandmother used to use Alum and Ammonia Sulphate to make patches of different colour in her garden. Hydrangea Flower Colours: Unveiling the Power of pH Levels

    Before humans learned how to work metals stews and soups were cooked in leather vessels. As long as you cooked over hot coals and didn't expose it to fierce flames it was fine.

    Nonstop Analyzing After Conversations Makes Me Hesitant to Actually Have Conversations

    I think that's probably the more pertinent point. I also analyse every conversation I have for hours afterwards, sometimes for weeks afterwards, replaying it again and again in my mind. This doesn't trigger negative thoughts in me though, as often as not I'm quite pleased with myself and how I...

    Windows line wrap

    Out of curiosity I did a bit of an explore to have a look and see what the hype is about. As soon as I saw the image below that was the end of my interest. It looks exactly how Gnome 3.0 looked back in 2015. The exact same thing that Win8 did, which was one of the greatest advertisements Linux...

    Training Sleep: A New Experiment

    This has always been me too. It's only during times of extreme stress that it takes me more than a minute or so to fall asleep. And for most of my life I nearly always got 8 or 9 hours of deep dreamless sleep in one hit. I hate waking up in the middle of the night. There were strange...

    Religion and Spirituality

    I'm not religious and I never understood the term Spirituality. I've heard people describe me as being very grounded, not sure I understand that comment either.

    Asbestos Concern

    These days in Australia we've got a lot of court cases trying to determine levels of liability for workers installing stone kitchen and bathroom bench tops. And of course - companies are now trying to better market themselves around that. This company makes benches out of real stone instead of...

    Asbestos Concern

    Excellent tip. One of the cheapest and best options is a clear water based polymer coating used to seal concrete floors where ever internal floors are uncovered concrete - factories, car showrooms, etc. That stuff lasts for decades.

    Bifenthrin is also great for ant nests, just squirt a little down the hole and the whole nest gets wiped out. I have no idea what brand names it will be marketed under in your country though. It looks expensive but you dilute it 100:1 before use.

    There's a great insecticide you can buy that works well called Bifenthrin - biferrous nitrate. It's a 30 day surface spray that completely breaks down over that time. As it breaks down it gives off a gas that is toxic to insects but safe for mammals. Unkind to caged birds though. If sprayed in...

    What is family

    I'm completely estranged from my family but it was always a very dysfunctional family right from the start. My father was incredibly intelligent, autistic, and a narcissist and a bully. My sister and I were both very strong willed and he never had any control over us so he just didn't like us...

    Asbestos Concern

    I missed this line the first time I read through - it's not a lot of material you're talking about here, so like your father I wouldn't be overly concerned. Certainly bury any pieces you can still find in the ash pile and bury them deep enough that they won't get exposed again in a hurry but...
