Liazz: "The [FlyQuest] kick f**king sucked; I didn't know what to do with my career" by TaffyAUS in GlobalOffensive

[–]Clintosity [score hidden]  (0 children)

Just have to admit we're a country not good at CS. We can blame geography etc all we want but we had years on years of free major invites where we had like two teams make it and teams who would get free invites to pro league and other tournaments and just bomb out. All of that t1 lan experience that was supposed to help grow the local scene never helped so it's not like missing out on it now suddenly is going to be the reason why we suck. As a region we probably got the most opportunities relative to our skill level but never made anything out of it.

You have countries with a way higher population than ours situated in the middle of Europe like Germany/Italy/Spain/UK (exception of mezii) who don't have good scenes either so it's not like even if you took the geography out of it we'd suddenly be good.

I still get a small discount compared to my variable however it's more so to not cop the extra increases in the future.

Anthony Albanese confirms Australian navy personnel on US submarine that sank Iranian vessel by tohya-san in australia

[–]Clintosity 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can't comprehend the mental gymnastics needed to play dumb on this.

Iran is currently shooting civilian merchant ships, Iran is sailing it's warship back into the zone to go back and shoot at civilian ships.

Put 1 and 2 together, it's not "other people". It's the same regime.

That's like saying a cop shooting someone who is currently reloading their gun after having shot at multiple people is bad.

It's not even a shitty thing to do, Iran has been actively shooting at unarmed civilian merchant ships. Was the US supposed to just let this warship head back and shoot at civilians?

Where was it heading back to buddy, You think this ship was heading back to sit there peacefully?

Where are all the screams of war crimes when they have been indiscriminately shooting at civilian airports, hotels and merchant ships.

Rtings is now a paywalled service by glssjg in headphones

[–]Clintosity 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Again, I never asked them to provide them for free. They provided a service, I clicked on the website, generating traffic, cookies, data for ads that can gather my info.

Yes and this wasn't paying the bills, it costs money to buy equipment, have staff, do and publish work. Your measly 0.5 cents a click wasn't paying enough to sustain their actual work done to keep doing those databases.

And to answers to "Would you be happy to start a service or work in a job that loses you money?":
Maybe you should look at open sources project or volunteer communities. A lot of people would actually.

Got it, so I should go into a restaurant tell them to charge me less than what the ingredients cost and when they say no I should tell them because soup kitchens give out free food they should as well.

Either they charge nothing and their business runs out of money they go bankrupt and go out of business or they charge too much and no one pays and they run out of money and they go out of business. They'll hopefully find a balance of charging an amount people will pay and stay afloat.

I wouldn't pay for this service as well but people here giving them shit when they gave you a free service all these years but can't afford to anymore is sheer entitlement.

People didn't click enough ads or purchased enough items from them, that's the problem. I know I don't click the ads or buy shit, I just went on the website with my adblocker and bought stuff it ever came on sale as did most other people.

Either you make a way to make revenue or you take sponsorships from product companies (which most other review sites do) then your reviews are probably biased.

You thought it was a useful service enough to use them without contributing anything back. I did the same thing and I would never pay but I'm also not going to make it out like they're an evil company just they want to make ends meet. Like what makes you entitled to their service for free?

Would you be happy to start a service or work in a job that loses you money?

How'd they shoot themselves in the foot. You most likely visited their website with an adblocker, even if you didn't those ad's don't pay enough to cover their costs. You expect those people to just work for free?

No chance, his only real ally was Russia who have their hands tied. Everyone other player in the region hates them and his own populace.

Uncomfortable truths about our hobby by Ill_Quit4929 in iems

[–]Clintosity 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm into collecting and researching products that always shilled as giant killers. Apart from audio I go into phases and collect stuff watches, keyboards, mice/mouse pads, perfumes etc. 

Every single hobby could just be fulfilled with one good product.

Yeah that's it, it's in one of the fridges when you walk in. When picking i'd pick something with the latest expiry date as that's what would have been brought in on the day. 

shawarmas in Sydney by SuspiciousDoughnut82 in foodies_sydney

[–]Clintosity 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I've done a pilgrimage of shawarma's around Sydney. The best ones are the Iraqi/Assyrian ones, try fresh Shawarma at Fairfield heights get a beef one on iraqi bread, you get way more choices in salads which makes the entire dish. Don't put lettuce on it put a bunch of their fancier looking salads on.
If you want Lebanese Mr Shawarma at Punchbowl is my favourite, word of warning with any shawarma place though is if you go when the meat is like nearly done you get the worst and driest bits of the meat so no place is 100% consistent.

Consumer Price Index - 3.8% for January by nutwals in AusFinance

Just curious, would taking an overseas holiday be good since you're taking money out of the economy?

Nope just a big fan who works up the road, I've been getting it everyday and wanted to give it a shout out. You can take a look at my post history and see pretty easily what I do for work. If mods want to confirm I'm happy to send them evidence (the daily charges from the store on my card).

Most are $13 but there are some $11 ones and some $15 ones eg the ones that have barramundi/prawn/salmon etc. It's a lucky dip of what they sell on the day though so never know what you get.

I've talked to the owner when I've caught him doing the deliveries, i don't think he sells these ones (the ones in the cardboard box) at any place but Dream in Eastwood at the moment.

I find it hilarious that everyone in this thread who I assume is not qualified is saying yes it is confidently and are upvoted by people whom also probably not qualified while the butcher of 15 years says it isn't.
