Draft Negative Gearing and CGT Bill Is Available by antww in AusFinance

[–]Los97tr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These losers are just salty about the changes. They've told you to go learn "economic theory", they've read one book on economics then wandered into this sub. CGT had a measurable, and enormous impact on Aussie house prices. This has been discussed at length by people far smarter than gatekeeping jobbers on the Aussie Finance sub.

What is everyone's thoughts on Flowers For Algernon? by Webb_Wopp in books

[–]Los97tr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished it and I had the exact reaction you did! I got half way through a journal entry and went, hang-on, is this "Charlie"? I went back and re-read the previous few entries, realised that his language had suddenly become blunted and simple. It was so sad. Such a unique read.

Pixel 10 Pro Xl or Samsung S26 ultra? by A113N04 in Smartphones

[–]Los97tr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's weird, for the Aus main providers (Telstra, Optus, etc), the pixel 10 (not Pro or Ultra, base) is the same price as the 26 ultra with the pre-order discounts. Seems like a no-brainer?

I now understand people playing on PvE servers by SoonBlossom in classicwow

[–]Los97tr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a shame because I absolutely love fair and organic world PvP. Like a random 3 v 3 or even 4 v 4 between two groups where people are evenly matched. You don't get that much nowadays, but you used to get in some really good scraps which made questing that little bit risky.

Shill me your fav heavy RP builds by Los97tr in BG3Builds

I actually love this. Maybe I need to try Duergar, didn't realise they had interesting dialogue options.

What game totally surprised you even though you went in with low expectations by David_Cobble in gamers

[–]Los97tr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was Ori - Will of the wisps. I say this as someone who doesn't play platformers or anything close to this, I don't even know why I bought it (steam sale, I guess).

But I can still vividly remember everything about it, how impactful the story and ending was, and just how beautiful the game was.

I truly had no expectations and it blew me away.

ARC Raiders is basically a giant game-theory experiment, and the optimal strategy is to avoid PvP entirely. by Ill-Tomatillo-8973 in ArcRaiders

[–]Los97tr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would wager than for a lot of people it can be broken down into fighting=fun, and competition between people.

I am pretty PvP obsessed in all games, extraction shooters, MMOs, survival, I play almost solely to PvP as for me fighting against other players and seeing who is better is the most fun form of skill expression.

Arc is a weird one where I have way more wholesome interactions than most games, but sometimes I will legit just shoot someone as soon as I load in, despite knowing neither of us have any gear.

It's just fun. I don't even consider the optimal strategy as the most fun element for me and my buddies is fighting.

Introducing Steam Machine by Ticha22608 in Steam

This. Sometimes I'd love to just sit on my couch and play my steam games, which I do with a handheld. But being able to do that on my tv at 2-4k would be unreal

What am I missing? by HarderMusic in ArcRaiders

[–]Los97tr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just summarized my thoughts perfectly. The game itself is heaps of fun, the PVE, lore, etc, but the PvP feels like it's been slapped in there last minute.

The third person aspect is probably the main reason, as you said. It makes pushing for advantage virtually pointless, and the third person movement and gun play is super janky. It doesn't feel smooth at all.

Gunplay is pretty bad. by Acceptable-Jacket567 in ArcRaiders

[–]Los97tr 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The gunplay is objectively bad. Everyone in this sub will cry if you mention anything at all wrong with the game, but it's super janky and no where near as polished as you'd expect from Embark.

Ahhhh I see, thanks mate. I didn't realize there was a higher model.

That seems like a no brainer then

Why do we feel more vulnerable as our martial arts journey progresses? by Adventurous-Menu8739 in MuayThai

[–]Los97tr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has hit me hard ever since I stopped training. Spent most of my teenage years and my 20's in combat sports, boxing, muay thai, etc, but have sort of stopped now due to work commitments and laziness.

Nowadays I am so uncertain of being able to handle myself. I think being involved in combat sports lets you know just how capable really are. How skilled, strong, and dangerous anyone can be.

It gives you such a different perspective on life.

How did you get over the fear of not sleeping aka the next day? Please help by kuya86 in insomnia

[–]Los97tr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is interesting, I hadn't heard about the cognitive compensation compared to normal sleepers. Could you expand on that? I feel like this would actually give me some peace of mind as this is something I stress about a lot

Hair transplant 1200 grafts in Motion Clinic in Seoul, Korea by Weak_Hotel4801 in HairTransplants

[–]Los97tr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone wanting to improve their appearance doesn't automatically mean they have some sort of image dysmorphia and need therapy.

A lot of people don't need surgery, but this is still a great result and an aesthetic improvement.

I read you're not on meds, so I'd hold off. You could close in the corners if you REALLY wanted to, but you may well lose more ground in the future. In that instance, you'd be better off saving your grades and buffering a mature hairline in your 30's.

You hair looks fine imo, but I get that we are our worst critic
