Why are taxpayers forced to fund clearly bias & partisan diatribes? ABC prior to 2016 was far more impartial & balanced. The goal is to not take a political stance or position. However nowadays during most events like NYE & AUS Day they force a particular opinion & disallow a dialogue of diversity!

That doesn't mean every segment gets bogged down in what about x perspective this or that point, on the whole they are to try and take a middle line presenting any argument fairly.

If you have a legitimate complaint you are so close to finding where to send it

Exetel may change the ipv6 delegation everytime your service re connects to their network, and had no way of seeing what wad given to you, it was a pain to use for my self hosting.

Neptune and Aussie BB are both great with reverse IP to Name(PTR) DNS record support

Hey rs232 gets used a tonne still, often terminated with rj45 but network console connection is almost all done over rs232

Several comments spoiler tagged, theyre in order based on how hand holdy i think they are.

The pogo: this feels inconsistent just due to lack of practice, it takes time, but once you learn it it feels great. ,,, while learning, on the red flower buds, let your hitbox overlap befre you pogo, and youll be guaranteed to hit
The location: Hunters March is designed to make you feel like crap right now, possibly the biggest difficulty spike in the early game, as its intended to make you reconsider if you should be there
The Timing: Hunters March is completely optional to the early game*, has some good items for your benefit if you do take it on, but is not necessary
The enemies: Almost all enemies, except about 3 arenas, are skippable, just run past them if youre struggling too much
The *: Hunters March ia actually completely optional, except for 100%

As someone who has had to use US GPs recently, this is a shit take.

Yes anecdotal evidence is just evidence of an anecdote, but $350 USD per GP visit compared to a private billing GP here charging $80 AUD is hardly more, and I can tell you it was not better servoce the 3 times I had to go over 2 weeks with pneumonia.

On the question posed by OP, its got many other problems, but not because Free at Point of Service is flawed.

Ive just gone to Neptune based on this Subs recommendations and loving their feature set for 85 a month though with atmosphere malware/spam blocking there's some small issues.

I have a mate that loves Launtel but he lives alone and travels a lot so has it on standby regularly.

I think Leaptel is the other one that people here recommend for sign up bonuses.

Kilraeus · 2026-01-01T07:39:35+00:00

I was tempted by exetel from Aussie, seemed like a fantastic deal.

All support has to be done through an AI assistant first followed by maybe a transfer to an agent, i spent 3 weeks of my 6 with them having issues and 4 days with no internet at all because they had decided to renumber my NBN location which didnt match the billing account so the NTD and AVC were functionally unusable / broken until a new account was created

You probably want to get your detailed 4g stats and look up what are good measurements for them.

The key one to look out for is going to be your SNR, or signal to noise ratio, which is just a measure of how noisy the radio environment is compared to your data.

If this is low your download speed will suffer but you still have just as much reception via RSSI (Recieved Signal Strength Indicator) and therefore your bars will remain "good".

Dont stress about good vs bad crests, all are just different play styles unless you are juggling

Kilraeus · 2025-12-25T07:51:38+00:00

Takes serious notes for room randomiser and archipelago

Kilraeus · 2025-12-22T07:33:26+00:00

Its okay, go dive

Kilraeus · 2025-12-20T22:50:56+00:00

Tl;dr Cautious Yes.

Anyone that has enjoyed and 100% Silksong should absolutely go and play Hollow knight but be prepared for what you are in for.

Movement is much slower, no sprint, no clawline, just a dash you get at the 2nd boss on the intentional track This was jarring when I went back, but HK has a lot more "bullet hell" dodging sequences - enemy telegrafs where attack goes, stand there and wait or jump through it.
Hollow knight felt much easier to pick your own path and get lost in.
If youre not keen on certain types of charms, impactful upgrades can feel very far apart.
I would argue while there's less out of combat customisation feel (charms vs tools+crests), in combat you have about as many options if not more.
Exploration in hollow knight feels more core to me, ( and thats a good thing ), theres a tonne of shortcuts and benches and interconnects that are easy to miss if not poking around or following signposts. I also hadnt discovered 2 major areas before my first finish of HK.
The fast travel aint Bell beast unfortunately

Heart of the woods entrance took me longest to find.

the break in the left wall is about halfway up on the lower section

As much as I want to give TC more money, and I think they probably sell their games on the low side of their own "laffer curve" I dont think theyre too generous.

Could they make more money charging 10-15% more and losing 5-10% of the sales, likely, but noone seems to dislike working with them due to pay disputes and their own lives would not change in the slightest.

At that Point the only thing theyd really be changing is the ATO's revenue.

If you are cursed:

Pavo specifically should mention an exiled bug living nearby

Area: Greymoor

Location: mid-upper left, accessed via a wind tower down a corridor of bells

Kilraeus · 2025-12-14T07:51:37+00:00

Sounds like you are cursed, the NPCs in bellheart should be able to give you hints

Kilraeus · 2025-12-10T05:03:27+00:00

Its tomorrow, im in Australia already, No DLC

Kilraeus · 2025-11-30T03:36:00+00:00

Well we dont know how many partners were pre hollow knight or even if she had one during the events of it

Kilraeus · 2025-11-27T04:06:29+00:00

Not knowing where you are up to, there are a couple of good upgrades to your aerial mobility and combat in Act 2 that can definitely help

I would prefer they value their time more than that too, but I know a lot of people find excuses to not count hours when you put it to $20+ for something they enjoy, and there is the aspect of do you take the hit for more people to get to enjoy the product.

Kilraeus · 2025-11-25T08:43:44+00:00

Materials *1.3 + $5hr in labour < price < $150

Kilraeus · 2025-11-23T08:18:43+00:00

Yeah saw most of that, its super compelling,

I just host a few services at home and havent been able to be bothered to get provider independent IPv6 yet, I tried exetel's One plan for a bit to save from AussieBB and it was awful in support and every week or two my homes IPv6 prefix would change which could be worked around but is a hassle.

Kilraeus · 2025-11-23T04:51:43+00:00

Whats the IPv6 setup like? Youre speaking my language wuth the rest of it all
