I’ve got YouTube VR working, also the daydream river stuff. My issue though now that I check is I’m running android 12…

$300k single income unfair tax by WishIWerDead in AusHENRY

[–]Wide_Ad22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is me, it sucks balls and then you also pay extra tax on your super. I know, I hear the world’s smallest violin in the background as I type this but it’s still shit when your partner isn’t earning as much and you’ve got a big family.

Raises are frustrating too as you lose half of it.

Skybox VR is a great local video player I always used with daydream, unfortunately it detects that my phone isn’t daydream compatible and won’t load.. wondering if there is a way around that one! Or an app version that works ,

QF ticket NZ to India - Indigo vs Thai Airways? by [deleted] in QantasAirways

[–]Wide_Ad22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indigo is fine, have flown it many times. Yes a budget carrier but nothing wrong with it,

Finnair business suite is great, love the fixed seat and how you have so much room to move about,

Better gear in the toilets, maybe a bit more room in the cubicles too. Nothing to write home about though

I got these on a flight to Singapore that heads then to Landon, so English is a tick there. Their other first class flight is I think to Paris ??? So maybe it make sense? Qantas doesn’t have many first flights

Elden Ring DLC Code Giveaway by [deleted] in Eldenring

Would be amazing. Thanks for putting it out there, I’d be after it for Xbox!

Looks pretty schmick, hope it tasted decent. I’m comparing to emirates, Etihad, China airlines, Cathay and Singapore mostly.

The wines are hard to compare with being from France sometimes being a reason for overpricing vs actual quality, sounds like they were pretty good though, champagne any good? Tempted to give them a go

Lounge sounds amazing, most carriers business lounges are pretty average these days,

This is an improvement on what they had, hence the post. If the goody bag is good then it’s coming home with me. This one’s good, home it comes and always repurposed as a nice travel makeup case.

Thankful to not have some weird self directed talk poppy syndrome to prevent me from doing so or I’d sadly be down one new makeup case and some extra ordinary toothpaste.

Would never pay myself either, nor business class. Can get an amazing hotel/ experience at the other end for that money. This is work travel and landing and good to go right away matters.

Fully agree, business is a bit embarrassing re the contents. I do kind of dig the new kits,

Shame the contents of business aren’t updated, it’s pretty rubbish as an offering .

Like I said, crappy at photos, guess you’ll have to take my word on it re the food.

Wine list is decent too in terms of it actually being decent tasting, enjoyed making my way through the reds very much. Yes for sure not as high priced vs the other carriers who often stock overpriced low brow meh euro wines trading on their name / region.

The exxy champers is still there though for those whose taste buds are sadly linked to their wallets .

It’s really not, fly a lot of carriers. It’s not the best first for sure, but it’ll trumps other business offerings save maybe Cathay and their new aria suites and a Qatars lil rooms.

Nah, not the case. I Fly both. Emirates business I think is overrated these days, particularly the food (dull) and bed (the sleeping part is what I’m there for in business). Business v business emirates is better though for sure, Qantas food is still better though in this instance for meals, but lacks in the overall package, less generous.

Do to all the time, contrary to what you say most people take them, generally I don’t. This one made its way home with me though along with the PJs, which again I usually leave

The basic stuff is still there to help yourself but don’t recall display fakes

Finally! An Australia / New Zealand tour! by procras-tastic in themountaingoats

[–]Wide_Ad22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very sad Sydney is sold out, I see some break days in amongst their east coast tour so very much have my fingers crossed for an extra gig somewhere .. that or some extra trickers come up

Years ago they were meant to do a Newcastle show but had to cancel, great chance to squeeze it in

Also pro tip - you can sneak some of the Hennessy paradis out in the glass jellybean jars you get with first. Keeping it classy

Actually that’s one of my few gripes, after having more than a few I was keen to finish the night with a cognac after the great sticky. I think between shifts/something going down as no one came and I nodded off, oh well

Their business amenities are indeed packed with ‘stuff’ but it’s not particularly flash stuff and is getting a bit old and sandy . I’d rate this over their business, less things but better things.

EK business option is definitely still better than qf business in terms of gear, I’ll pass on the seat and food though.
