My neighbour's planted a Red Cedar out the front of their house.Trees are wild man. I'm Looking out the window at some 120ft tall eastern white pines swaying in the breeze, knowing the only thing stopping them from toppling over and squashing me is their tenuous hold on the earth.
What could possibly go wrong?My neighbour's planted a Red Cedar out the front of their house.
Planting a tree that can grow to 200ft near your water supply, underground cables and between two driveways seems a bit silly.

Neighbor has about 5 doug firs growing just a few feet from each other which means they grow tall and skinny very quickly, they are at least 200'. I am exactly down wind for when we have storms. Pretty sure one of those trees will be the demise of my house.People are generally quite stupid when it comes to planting trees.

(he's in australia)You murikans and your obsession with big stuff...
Liquidambers can get fucked! Stupid plant that drops seeds that suck to stand on, cleaning those massive leaves out of gutters also sucks then they shoot out loads of suckers when they feel like it.You murikans and your obsession with big stuff...
I want to have a cherry tree and a liquidambar in front of my new house. And maybe a palm tree in the backyard.
If one has never seen a magpie drunk off its ass doing exactly this, one has not truly lived....My yard is full of junipers. I see the beauty in them because I choose too. Sometimes in the fall it freezes early and makes the berries ferment, then the birds eat them and get hammered. Around sunset they will all chirp a cacophony of bird nonsense. It’s quite interesting.
I've seen hordes of parakeets getting hammered from eating fermented medlar fruits at my neighbor's backyard. They even fall or just hang upside down from a branch.If one has never seen a magpie drunk off its ass doing exactly this, one has not truly lived....

Need to be taken down why?I want a yard full of sugar maples, maybe a dogwood or two and some redbuds. Right now, all we've got are some scraggly ass pines, a magnolia, a Bradford pear, and a bunch of maples, oaks, and elm that need to be taken down.
90% of those needing to be taken down are rotten, the bases are damaged such that if I don't take them proactively, they're likely to come down unpredictably. As to why they died, I'm not sure, I can only guess that changes to the local drainage resulting from development placed them in a spot that's wetter than ideal for that type of tree.Need to be taken down why?
1. Get a password manager*.IT: "Passwords shouldn't be written down either on paper or electronically"
Also IT: Auto-assigns unchangeable 10-digit gobbledygook password made up of uppercase, lowercase, symbols and numbers for a system that is infrequently used.
If only. No unauthorized software is allowed on company machines, password managers included. I don't even have IT permissions to install one even if I tried.
Ahh, my bad. Never considered that scenario. Even my most security-by-obscurity oriented customers are migrating to password managers!If only. No unauthorized software is allowed on company machines, password managers included. I don't even have IT permissions to install one even if I tried.
Nope. Per IT, it is unchangeable and there is 0 chance I will ever remember this, something I've heard from other coworkers too.Ahh, my bad. Never considered that scenario. Even my most security-by-obscurity oriented customers are migrating to password managers!
Could you at least change the random gibberish password to something easier to remember?
I feel your pain.Nope. Per IT, it is unchangeable and there is 0 chance I will ever remember this, something I've heard from other coworkers too.
Instead, I have it written down, likely negating any security benefit they derived from this goofy setup in the first place.
Install a password manager on your phone.Nope. Per IT, it is unchangeable and there is 0 chance I will ever remember this, something I've heard from other coworkers too.

My wife likes that crap.The new Paramore album is very different to their previous albums, but it is still just as shit.
I'd say put up a fight.Install a password manager on your phone.
Maybe it could be a Gateway drug like Blink 182, people start with them then move on to more punk sorta stuff.My wife likes that crap.
Good thing you live in Australia...her Spotify angry house cleaning mix.
Sorry, does she use Pandora?Good thing you live in Australia...
Allegedly.If young Aussies couldn't use- `100%`, 'actually', 'literally' and 'it is what it is'......... I 100% actually literally think they'd struggle to form a coherent sentence, but it is what it is I guess.
