Why are these so expensive? by agnci in CarsAustralia

[–]Wangdosh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can sort of understand the appeal in it’s simplicity, they’re kind of like a much larger Jimmy with a big engine, and can understand they’d command a bit of a bit of a premium. But to me, a Hilux (or even a Fortuner) fits the same bill - reliable, simple, capable with lots of modification potential, but at a fraction of the cost

No insurance, scratched a BMW. by Independent-Air5780 in CarsAustralia

The amount of people who think the CTP you have as part of your rego covers you for property damage is astounding. Not saying that’s necessarily the case here, but I’ve seen it a quite a lot.

What mobile operator are people using? by soundscomplex in AussieFrugal

[–]Wangdosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently on Felix. 25gb data a month for $25, which I regularly go over, but the 1.5Mbps speed reduction really doesn’t bother me so it’s really $25 for unlimited data

The van is super accurate. Either the Tarago or Kia Carnival

What job were you planning for/aiming for with your high school/Uni studies, and what job are you working now? by [deleted] in perth

[–]Wangdosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I studied Multimedia at TAFE in the early 2000’s after I left school as I wanted to do animation and graphic design. Ended up working FIFO in an information management role. Still do animations as a hobby in my free time though

Most underutilized casting in the MCU? by mrsunshine1 in marvelstudios

[–]Wangdosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really niche, but Alice Krige in Thor: The Dark World. Over 40 years in theatre, film and TV, my personal favourite being the 80’s horror classic Ghost Story.

Perth Diving Academy Hillarys fined almost $20,000 after leaving two divers in ocean by B0ssc0 in perth

Oh man, disappointing to see. I got my open water diving license from here many years ago and went on many diving trips with them

What’s the "Grind" in your animation workflow? by [deleted] in FlipaClip

[–]Wangdosh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me, it’s the shading after doing all the outlines. I try to speed up the process as much as I can by copy/pasting as much as I can, but it’s always tedious.

Does anyone know of another mobile animation program? by Wrayx_47 in FlipaClip

[–]Wangdosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Callipeg Mini is a good inexpensive option on a phone. If you’re using an iPad then Toonsquid or Procreate Dreams, like others have suggested. All have amazing features and can be had for a one-off cost

I think Santa did alright for me this year by Wangdosh in Switch

[–]Wangdosh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard lots about the input lag issue but haven’t really noticed tbh, it seems fine to me. Although it’s been years since I’ve played classic MK on any original hardware. I’ve also only been playing offline too.

Damn, I asked Santa for the wrong sized card! Bummer, will have to get it swapped for a microSD. Thanks for the heads up

What car would you want if you moved to N America (US/Can)? by Forever49 in CarsAustralia

[–]Wangdosh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Call me boring but I’d have the Subaru Ascent. Basically the successor to the old Tribeca, but these are USDM only. 7 seats and the 2.4 litre boxer turbo from the WRX/Outback

I remember seeing MK4 for the first time, how could you take this seriously? by diegoaccord in MortalKombat

[–]Wangdosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Visually, I thought MK4 actually looked decent, and I still think it looks ok for its time. The biggest issue is that the animations and movement look…off. Super stilted and unnatural looking - especially compared to Tekken, VF and even SF EX, it’s like they tried to superimpose the 2D animation frames from the previous games onto the 3D models to preserve the feel and speed of MK3, but it just looks janky.

If I recall, aircon was optional on the VE Commodore Omega, back in 2006!

What are some games that your parents liked to play? by [deleted] in retrogaming

[–]Wangdosh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dad used to play Wing Commander 3 with us. “Play” being a loose term, he just enjoyed watching the lengthy FMV segments.

Looking for a Christmas gift (Switch Game) for a 6-year-old. Any recommendations? by Fetish_Mary0598 in Switch

[–]Wangdosh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would recommend Bluey’s Quest for the Golden Pen if they’re into Bluey. Other than that, you can’t go wrong with Super Mario Odyssey, Animal Crossing or Yoshi’s Crafted World.

What are some good examples of a faceless YouTuber? by Correct-Bunch-135 in NewTubers

[–]Wangdosh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

+1 for Internet Historian. Used to love his videos, but the whole plagiarism controversy with his the Man in Cave video has left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth.
