  • Funnily enough, in Australia we call the broiler a grill, and what you’re describing is exactly what I thought a grilled cheese was. One of my favourite snacks when I was a kid was this, but with corn kernels under the cheese as well. Of course, being Australian, cheese and Vegemite was also a winning combination!


  • Aussie here, I’ve always considered a cheese toasty to be a cheese sandwich that’s been toasted in a jaffle iron. A toasted cheese sandwich, however, would be more similar to a grilled cheese.

    Not sure if this was just the nomenclature used by my family or is in line with what others call them, though.














  • Yep! I know, it’s not quite what you were after. But physical controls to adjust each volume source feels quite automated.

    I grew really tired of adjusting music, game, and voice chat volumes. I found that there was never a volume level that was right in all situations, and I’d always be switching or minimising windows to make adjustments. I backed PCPanel on Kickstarter in 2017 and can’t fault it, but the software is only for Windows. Deej says it supports Linux as well, plus you get the fun of having to build it! 😁




  • I’ve owned five, but have worn/used three.

    First pair from age 13 or 14 through to 17. Second pair from 17 until 24. Third pair has seen daily use for over 14 years.

    I have replaced the lenses in my third pair once, and have a couple of pairs of spare lenses if the need arises. I already have my next two pairs of sunglasses, bought them maybe eight years ago, just in case.

    This doesn’t include tinted safety glasses that I wear at work, I usually only get an average of 6-8 months out of those.
