If you google Reddit RES it should be the first result.

Edit: -5 for giving a quick way to bring up the plugin? I wasnt the one that just threw RES in expecting everyone knew what that was.

Works fine using RIF on android.

Tempered glass does that. Watch some videos of "The Slow Mo Guys"

Were you meaning that as a reply to someone else? If not, i was asking how the user i replied to knew what bit their arse, not how to id OPs spider.

Duff5OOO

What part of that bottle are you thinking this is? I'm not seeing it.

EDIT: cant reply to you. Nah, thats a carry handle. I have bought that exact body wash several times. Clear from the other angle. https://imgur.com/pQALAPa

Listen, where do get off calling everyone liars.

Calm down firstly. You are barely even able to form a sentence with that rage.

Where did i call anyone a liar? I asked because many many people just say they were bit by a white tail based on an assumption. I know people that had a doctor tell them it 'must have been a white tail'.

I got bitten by one and everyone said, Oh are you suuure? You know people say it’s been debunked…

They are right, the common story about a white tail has been debunked. That isn't to say a bite from a white tail cant do that though. A bite from anything that punctures the skin can. A bite from a spider that goes around eating all sorts of other random bugs/spiders isnt exactly going to leave a sterile wound.

So again. Claiming to have one example isn't proof of there being some great number of examples. One example is an anecdote. Saying your story is an anecdote does not mean i'm calling you a liar.

If you ID'd the spider great. Sucks that it happed to you but it isnt proof of it being common with white tails.

The actual data on confirmed white tail bites proves it isnt common.

Duff5OOO

They are found in all states i believe.

Duff5OOO

I didn't downvote you but i presume someone did for seemingly assuming what it was that bit you. Realistically anything that causes a puncture would could get infected so unless you manage to find a half squashed spider in your jocks its really just a guess.

Duff5OOO

Out of interest, how did you know it was a white tail? I have run into so many people over the years that blame a white tail for any and random mark that gets infected. Every time it came down to them assuming it was a white tail because they had heard of that happening with white tail bites. None of them ever caught or otherwise identified the spider.

Just to be clear I don't doubt its possible. Anything biting you can cause an infection.

Duff5OOO

You saw a white tail bite a family member or a family member told you they got bit by a white tail. Assuming is very different to knowing what bit someone.

Anyway. The person above was saying the risk is a puncture wound and that could be any spider, not especially white tails. The next user disagreed that other spiders have the same risk because there is too many examples of white tail bites.

Claiming to have one example isnt proof of there being some great number of examples. One example is an anecdote.

Edit: from https://australian.museum/learn/animals/spiders/white-tailed-spider/

A debate continues about the involvement of White-tailed Spider bite in cases of severe ulcerative skin lesions seen in patients diagnosed as probable spider bite victims. Typically, in such cases no direct evidence of spider bite is available. Sensational media reporting of supposed cases of severe "necrotising arachnidism" has given the White-tailed Spider a bad reputation. However, a recent study has monitored the medical outcomes of over 100 verified White-tailed Spider bites and found not a single case of ulceration (confirming the results of an earlier study). The available evidence suggests that skin ulceration is not a common outcome of White-tailed Spider bite.

Duff5OOO

You know a white tail bit your finger (as in positively IDs the spider at the time) or someone guessed that it could have been a white tail bite?

The latter happens all the time. The former is exceedingly rare.

Duff5OOO

Mmm I don’t agree all spider bites have the same risk. There are way too many examples of white tails causing issues.

Where are these examples?

What you very often find is people getting a weird infection and then assuming it was a white tail bite because they heard other people have had necrosis from a white tail spider. Its a conga line of people making assumptions based on other peoples assumptions.

Duff5OOO

Did you find it in the bed after?

Duff5OOO

Would anyone notice if a few went off on New year's?

Duff5OOO

they could just drive over the thin wire/bar to the left, the bars are a deterrent, the wire the the left isn’t anything to worry about.

Why would you go to all that effort and money on the gate only to leave a single wire/bar on the left of it

Isn't anything to worry about? https://imgur.com/W8hlwIf

That's going to mess you up if you try and drive through it.

Duff5OOO

Yeah that was my thought as well. Not made easier by the low quality. I find it hard to believe the batsmen didnt react at all to the bat being launched and hitting his teammate.

Frame by frame the bat smacks him on the head and he doesnt move at all for a few frames. I would have expected to see his head move on contact. Again, hard to tell because the image is pretty shit.

Duff5OOO

What a load of shit. That shouldn't be legal.

Apple users finally get a proper Firefox build and access to ublock origin?

Edit: stupid autocorrect unlock=ublock

Duff5OOO

Despite the title they must have been trying to start it surely?

They are clearly putting a heap of force into spinning the wheel, not trying to undo anything.

. He went to go kiss me bye and his glasses tinted out of nowhere. I hate it.

Whats the problem there?

I always use photochromic lenses. Why would i want to have to carry 2 pairs with me all day?

Duff5OOO

Maybe microsoft are just predicting Trump turning on the money printers causing a massive increase in inflation.

Duff5OOO

Yeah noted. Place we are looking at this week has over 800 square meters of roofline including some big sheds. (Seems absurd given thats more than our current SE Melbourne block size)

Duff5OOO

Nice, thats cheaper than i expected.

A quick google maps area calculation on one of the places i was looking at gave 800m2 of roof space. (which seems absurd but does include a granny flat and massive sheds)

Presumably that should catch quite a bit of water.

Duff5OOO

Personally basic use allow 10k of water per person.

I'll find out how much storage it has. It isnt on the listing or s32.

Water isnt crazy expensive $300 a truck load. An IBC holds 1000l

Ive moved 3 beofore in my trailer which wpukd put me over the limit. But lets say u get a trailer that can do 2000l that will last 3 months if u go easy on water. Its really not that bad.

Thats a decent idea. Thanks. We have plenty of friends on the peninsula in spots with mains.
