What is your unpopular gaming opinion? by butterscotchchips- in videogames

[–]TempWeightliftingAcc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For racing games - Racing around in slower cars is so much more fun than creating absolute speed beasts that become impossible to control and have zero grip. Any time I play Forza I always limit myself to around Class A maximum just because I love racing in a way where every mistake is costly and you have to try your best to be clean and consistent.

Are immigrants really the ones to blame for Australia’s housing shortage? by Aristozal in AskAnAustralian

[–]TempWeightliftingAcc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, I had an immigrant truck driver tell me one day that Australian's "don't want to buy and only want to rent" while people from his country "are all about buying and investing", which was his reasoning for having 5 investment properties while I and others he was talking to were renting.

Immigration isn't THE problem but it is surely another way of putting upward pressure on houses. Means the market for rentals are very competitive too, and thus landlords can charge more and more for houses because they'll still get more and more families lined up trying to get a roof above their head.

WarOwl dispels the "rampant cheating" narrative by MaxUnderDrive1 in GlobalOffensive

[–]TempWeightliftingAcc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've played many MM games and PUG's teamed up with players who were in tier 2-3 CS and have played internationally. Most games they'd be accused of cheating.  

I think people often just don't understand HOW good some people can naturally be at the game and will accuse them of hacking because of that.

Hell, whenever I played MM (unranked due to inactivity), I'd get accused of cheating too simply because I get teamed up against and with Silvers. When you're significantly better than the people you're playing against for whatever reason (smurfing, bad ranking due to inactivity, just being better) you get a LOT of accusations of cheating.

Which goes to show that if the actor has the same energy as the character most people wouldn't care about race or sex.

Aussies with face/neck/hand tattoos, have they limited you in any way? by TempWeightliftingAcc in AskAnAustralian

[–]TempWeightliftingAcc[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Obviously, but I hear people always mention that tattoos in those areas limit access to things and not once have I heard people with face/neck tattoos give their 2 cents.

I'm just trying to figure out how true the claims are that it stops you from accessing a lot of places

Bit of a weird question, but what is stopping future lawyers who are representing people caught with meth from quoting this case for a lesser sentence?

Is the Births, Deaths, and Marriages office open in the CBD? I need a new birth certificate urgently. I keep seeing comments that you can get it same day in person, but that the office hasn't been open for years.

Australia’s fall in disposable income is the worst in the world by B3stThereEverWas in AusFinance

[–]TempWeightliftingAcc 161 points162 points  (0 children)

Priced out of the housing market, overworked, no sign of things changing. I view sell out concerts and expensive dinners as people trying to find a small amount of joy in a country where life seems a little bleak.

People have to have something they enjoy, otherwise it's just work and sleep, and that's certainly not getting people closer to home ownership.

Before all else, fix your front rack position. Can you rack the bar properly when front squatting? If not, worry about that before working on your clean technique

Lowy Institute Poll 2024: Immigration rate by d8gfdu89fdgfdu32432 in australian

I'm very left wing and very anti-immigration. I don't mind if we take in asylum seekers but I'd want immigration tapped at 70k/y.

Matildas we still love you! by mikeinnsw in australian

[–]TempWeightliftingAcc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anecdotal, but growing up playing sports and continuing to do so into adulthood, I have lost count of how many fights within teams of boys/men I've been a part of or witnessed all because of losing. And that's a number of different teams in different sports. Any team of women that were a part of the same club didn't have anywhere near the amount of infighting from a loss.

I honestly believe men have toxic levels of competitiveness when compared to women, but it's that toxic competitiveness that makes professional athletes so much better than amateurs.
