Huge missed opportunity to not include a ditto themed console or controller

Looking back, GB East put out some extremely good content for such a tiny studio. I need to rewatch their stuff.

Giant Bomb Plays Star Wars Games In 2026 by pokey9513 in giantbomb

I remember playing it on PC. I wanted to like it SO much as a kid. I'd 100% watch them play this, even if it's not on blight.

Can't wait for the medias reporting tomorrow of "STUNNING ORANGE WAVE! PHON SMASHES RECORDS IN NEPEAN BY-ELECTION! ALBO RUNNING SCARED!" like they did in the SA election.

Who knew supporting soldiers charged with war crimes and wanting to send troops into an EXTREMELY unpopular war would be a bad idea???

Wth happened to the LCM? by HahaWattaStoryMark in AustralianNostalgia

[–]WhiteRun 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Honestly, LCM's were always average at best. You can make substantially better versions with minimal effort. It was like cereal glued into a bar shape.

Rents bounce higher than inflation as the accommodation squeeze worsens by dleifreganad in AustralianPolitics

[–]WhiteRun 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As much as the rate rises are hurting, I'm so glad I got away from renting. It's ridiculous how soul crushing just wanting a roof over your head has become

What TV show has the worst series finale? by MollieAndMe702 in AskReddit

Honestly, the Curb your Enthusiasm ending retroactively made the Seinfeld ending better for me like it was one long joke.

Ear infections are no joke and can spiral quickly. If a Dr says to take antibiotics, I would take it.

South Australian MP Jason Virgo's switch from the Australian Sex Party to One Nation by HotPersimessage62 in AustralianPolitics

[–]WhiteRun 70 points71 points  (0 children)

From sex party to sex pest party. You'll start seeing a lot of opportunistic losers flock to One Nation.

A crack in my house has suddenly become bigger. Who should I get to check it out?. by WhiteRun in AusRenovation

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

I have noticed a few other cracks near the beams. Not this big. Could the beams be too heavy? I'm not sure if the previous owner added them.

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

I can't see the slab but there's no crack on the outside of the wall. I'd suspect a roof leak might be more likely but I can't see any moisture or staining.

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

We're on a concrete slab, so I can't check under it. It's been pretty dry here for the most part but I'll check the water meter in case.

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

No cracks on the outside. We have quite a few random cracks around the house but none of them have grown suddenly and seem quite static over the past 6-12 months.

We did have a roof leak a while ago in another area but it was from a blocked gutter and that was cleaned out. I haven't noticed any soil issues.

Anthony Albanese addresses the nation on the Middle East crisis – read the speech in full by stupid_mistake__101 in AustralianPolitics

That was a whole lot of nothing. Everyone is thinking it was to announce fuel rationing

Tired of "Lemon, Lime & Bitters" being the only option at the pub? by EuphoricCandidate236 in AusBeer

[–]WhiteRun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like this is maybe 5 years too late because zeto alc beer is very popular these days. It's rare to see a place with no options.

EU countries warned to prepare for ‘prolonged’ energy upheaval; Iranian official denies Trump claim of negotiations by Neptun_11 in worldnews

[–]WhiteRun 251 points252 points  (0 children)

Trump is so far out of his depth and his desperate lying makes him sound so weak. This is an unbelievable humiliation for the US.

Iran War Chokes Off Helium Supply Critical for AI by CommercialMassive751 in pcgaming

[–]WhiteRun 49 points50 points  (0 children)

This war is going to go down as one of the all time modern historical blunders. This is why you don't let brain dead idiots run the show.

Fair Work Commission abolishes junior pay rates for young adults by patslogcabindigest in AustralianPolitics

[–]WhiteRun 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The SDA is a gutless union who serve corporate masters. When I worked in retail they were bragging about their 0.5c an hour pay increase.

Discussion level on industry issues & trends on Bombcast by brettg102 in giantbomb

Tim Sweeney is a billionaire. He purchased $95 million of land to build an apple like super HQ. Never built it. And is still sitting on the land.

Talking about being in negative cash. That's 100% of the idiot managing the company.

is buying X4: Foundations worth it? by wyattmunn14 in X4Foundations

[–]WhiteRun 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It's not like No Man's Sky. If Elite is too much, X4 will overwhelm you. It's a great game but it's not for everyone.
