Really? Actually I thought it was caused by retailers taking the opportunity to increase prices when everyone thought prices would increase due to covid.
In Australia we have "the outback", which isn't really "the middle of nowhere" but, it's also nowhere in particular.
I don't really know but I suspect it arose in the colonial era, when settlements were on the coast, and the hinterland was settled agricultural properties, but "out the back" away from the coast its dry, arid, and not much to see.
"The Australian Outback" refers to a class of landscape, rather than a place, but if you're in the outside back you're in the middle of nowhere.
Thats not really the right lesson to learn here.
Just have real, non-combative conversations with your colleagues and supervisors. Don't communicate with stupid games and manipulation.
IDK how you ended up feeling so trapped, but honestly most people believe that their job contributes something positive to the world.
All I can do is encourage you to re-evaluate your assumptions and find a way out.
LOL. Sounds like an idiot. Even if the guy was really needed, you can't have someone like that on your team.
I saw a vaguely similar situation a long time ago where someone was a positive, contributing member of the community and then they fell from grace somehow and basically no one was thankful enough so they were banned and they just kept evading the bans and posting smut in the forums for weeks.
The way this guy has really thrown his weight into this but still obviously feels like the victim is really reminiscent, I wouldn't be surprised if there's some more to come.
I think they do self describe as anarchists, but every time someone says that there seems to be a discussion around what anarchy means.
There's some stuff on their wiki: https://wiki.dbzer0.com/divisions-by-zero/
It's delusional to think that Iran is less evil than the US.
I don't think that's true at all.
I mean the US has kinda rapidly descended towards being evil. Iran has been evil consistently since the revolution in '79.
Its an important clarification.
Its easy to get carried away with my hatred of Trump, and think fondly of Iran in an enemy-of-my-enemy kind of way. I have to remind myself that Irans ruling class is also detestable.
If you dont like left wing users then you really won't like dbzer0.
I'm centre-left and most of their schtick is too nutty for me.
Note that I did not say I do not like them or think they should be silenced or what have you.
Just pointing out that if someone is trying to silence the far left, dbzer0 might be a prime target.
Complete lack of self awareness.
If you can't act transparently then you're probably the asshole.
I can replace this rusted post but before I do I have questions!
This is the context:
This construction is about 30 years old. I live in a coastal city so there's plenty of salt in the rain. The ground level was level with the place it's rusted through completely. However, it was probably painted down to that level and no further. My assumption is that it's galvanised steel, but only because that's what's commonly used for this type of construction.
Firstly I just want to confirm that this is likely to be caused simply by being in the ground for 30 years. It's possible that in the past there was water ingress through the screw holes in the roof panels. I had someone replace those fixtures 4 years ago, so those seals are new.
My second question is, am I supposed to use some sort of footing to avoid the same thing happening again in another 20 years ? Should it be in some kind of stirrup like this or are these only for timber:
My third question is, the current top plate / bracket is custom made with welded parts. I don't have a welder nor any experience with that. Should I expect to find a purpose built standard top plate from wherever I buy the post? I could use 3x right angle brackets but that just doesn't feel like the right approach. Presently it looks like this:
Thanks!
