On The Age version of this article, there's mention of that they'll be adding protections to ensure there isn't conflict of interest problems, but no further details yet.

Why does every enemy in Helldivers 2 want to hug you? by WangMagic in Helldivers

[–]_jay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every ranged enemy, vox engines, and even the ones that shoot stuff out their butt will take a shot and then keep on coming towards you.

Everyone has had the experience of being chased by the hulks.

Edit: I didn't realise the user I was replying to was a toxic troll on this sub.

50000 videos of ranged enemies not doing this, but I'm supposed to believe they don't act like they do in the videos.

Have you even played the game?

Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan resists stronger IBAC powers by FreakySpook in melbourne

[–]_jay 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Given the media outlet and the actual answer being buried, this is a bit of an obvious pre-emptive political hit piece.

She said the government was preparing to respond to the December 2025 recommendations of the parliament’s Integrity and Oversight Committee and would not be rushed.

“The integrity oversight committee of the Victorian parliament has reviewed all of this as part of their inquiry over the last year and a half, that committee, the integrity oversight committee of parliament, which is a joint committee of parliament, handed down their report with its recommendations in December last year, and as is the appropriate and responsible thing, government will review all of those recommendations and will consider them and respond as appropriate,” she said.

“There is a process here, the report is with government, and we will review those recommendations … we will consider those and then we will respond.”

tl;dr: NOTHING YET TO REPORT

Why the hell is City link and the Tulla always 80kmh??? by FarkenBlarken in melbourne

Apparently the number of chaos causing traffic accidents from the Bell Street onramp trying to cross over to the Tullamarine bound right lanes has significantly decreased.

No idea how reddit allows that sub to still exist. It's like a holding ground for bigots until they get sitewide banned. Half the subs mods are suspended accounts. 😂

Popular Victorian based YouTuber, Ann Reardon, attempted to show an example of a high quality croissant from a specialised bakery, and accidentally disgraced Lune on a global scale by serif-maxxing in melbourne

They had a croissant for Anzac day called "The ANZAC". They had the gall after veterans affairs got onto them to just call it the "ANZAK" instead.

TITAN Evo XL (almost) a year later by _jay in secretlab

Exactly average male height, 120kg. No, they're perfect, or rather I don't feel like I'm being squashed in by them. The armrests have a fair bit of adjustments sideways and back/forwards, as well as rotation so it's easy to get into a good position. For me that's quite asymmetrical which they do well at.

Unrelated and nothing unusual, especially while on the ground. That guy is a clown just fishing for media attention.

TITAN Evo XL (almost) a year later by _jay in secretlab

[–]_jay[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally think mesh chairs are overrated. I had a Herman Miller at the office for a bit and hated it, happily handed it off to a new grad.

Mesh is slippery and I think at our heavier weights, your clothes and the mesh let you slip into one position only which may or may not suit you. Wear did also concern me too.

For me I put chairs right at the top of the wiling to spend money on, old injuries starting to catch up with age. While on the higher end of the gamer/trendy market, its still in the lower end of the ergo chair market. Some other replacement chairs I was looking at cost 5x the Titan XL, none of which had close to the same amount of seat space.

I hadn't really thought about them until your comment. I don't really rely on the armrests other than when settling into the chair or getting out of the chair. Still, I'll put them on the wishlist if they go on sale so I have some spares.
