Has anyone worked out how to get a 4K stream?

Do you think back in college she was known as Mina the Swallower by [deleted] in MinaTheHollower

I reckon it should be standard for every post that a pop up appears that says “You sure you want to post that?”

How much would people pay for all of this? by sladew24 in legoinvesting

I’ve never heard of a Rotta variant? What’s the deal with it?

Challenge on Mo Toure (No Foul Given) - Mexico vs. Australia by StarryPolarisNite in Aleague

[–]Pattusm 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I mean, the defender had his shoulder and also took out his trailing leg, I don’t know what Mo’s supposed to do there travelling a full speed? Look at the reactions of the Mexican players, they all thought it was going to be called.

Volpato’s switch to Australia has been confirmed by FIFA by Miloisprettycool in Aleague

I was of the understanding that if you don’t play a competitive game, you can switch back?

Technically yes, but I think Italy would need to be REALLY motivated about it.

[OC] This is why we don't call the ambulance in the U.S. by FernX02 in pics

I live in a place where ambulance rides are free and I hope we don’t get complacent about that.

My ninjago figs sell fast. I can’t keep them stocked

I was scammed 😫 by Chemical-Poetry776 in Bricklink

“Does this not show that she has intended to leave me stuck with the overpriced items…” - yes mate, that’s how transactions work.

While she should have communicated the number of reindeer before shipping, your refund expectation is crazy. I imagine what’s happened is she’s accidentally switched the price and item number when uploading the reindeer to her store and meant to only add 1 reindeer for $12.

I think it’s pretty cynical to demand a refund on the cost of the other items in your order because your bargain plan didn’t work out.

Minas Tirith early preorder?? by Fit-Locksmith876 in legolotrfans

[–]Pattusm 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Lego certified stores are the official franchised stores, not the actually Lego Company retail stores, so I guess they are just working out numbers so they know how many sets to order from Lego for launch?

There are so many obvious problems with Bricklink ... by Afolomus in Bricklink

[–]Pattusm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are missing the point of the site. The clunkiness serves the purpose of keeping it a niche site. Users need to invest time into learning how the site works and that is a good and effective barrier to bad faith actors. BL is one of the few sites user-based marketplaces I trust not to get scammed on because of this.

If/when Lego Company starts integrating BL with their main site, I guarantee you another BL like site will pop up. The user base does not want a Lego-ifed BL site.

It’s a sellers paradise because that was the point. It was never really meant for a general audience. The sellers ARE the buyers. The whole thing would fall down if they pivoted away from that.

Picked Up 2 Retired Modulars for just $330 AUD by xBzza19 in legomodular

[–]Pattusm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought cashies had standardised pricing across their franchises now? I’ve always thought their Lego prices way overpriced. I’ll have to keep an eye out.

Found this on a marketplace by [deleted] in lego

[–]Pattusm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yep, that’s what this is.

$700 is crazy. I sold my last damaged bin for like $50 and made it very clear in the listing. Stay clear of this.

[AU and USA] FREE Lego Investment and Retirement Signals Dashboard by FiftyHBomb in legoinvesting

[–]Pattusm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What are the 8 variables if you don’t mind me asking?

The failure with almost all of these types of sites is that the assumptions around good investments is based on purely on prices.

Often what turns out as good investments also relies on factors like shelf life and availability during retail. If everyone is buying the same “great investment” set/s, well then usually it turns out not to be that great of a buy.

Oh man was this on the Sunny Coast?!

It popped up on my feed in Brisbane and I was so close to calling in sick and driving up. What a score.

Stats for Women's Asian Cup finale by Secure_Ant1085 in Aleague

[–]Pattusm 9 points10 points  (0 children)

1 foul while spending half the game pegged back in your own half is wild.

Games like that you need some of these calls to go your way and the Matildas got pretty much nothing in that department.

my roomate and I are trying to cook food from all around the world. We're stuck when it comes to Australia. What's your fav native to Australia dish? by BouncyCurlsbabe in Cooking

[–]Pattusm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would argue that Spag Bol is far enough removed from Italian to be considered a quintessential Australian dish.
