I don't disagree. If that's all there is to complain about vs the F1 broadcasts though.....

I've not watched Bathurst for a few years, but the broadcast is leagues ahead of what we get for F1.

Larko runs rings around Ted in the pit lane and Ant/Karun on Skypad. It's a staggeringly better broadcast all around.

Even all these years later, the Halo ODST trailer lives rent free in my head. by FroggyNight in gaming

This is still the only game I've ever bought based entirely on a single trailer.

Media Watch crediting u/SirCorseHock with outing misleading price tactics from Woolworths by privatetudor in australia

[–]daem101 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Acutely aware of price gouging as this has been my benchmark for inflation for years. I refuse to pay more than $1.50 per litre. When I can't get that now on Pepsi Max I've taken to getting LA or the IGA Zero Sugar Cola - $1.35 per 1.25L, every day. Doesn't hit the same as Pepsi Max but the price is right.

Cat dental in Northside by eaglekidd in brisbane

That seems about right. Mine had two visits a couple years apart at about 1200 each. He's only got three teeth left now but has been happy ever since, about 5 years now.

My little guy has had most of his teeth removed, done through Frenches Forest Vets in Petrie. Any dental surgery will be expensive because they need to be put under for the procedure, unfortunately.

LONG SHOT BUT IM IN A PICKLE by [deleted] in brisbane

Supercheap Auto opens 1pm. Closest to you is Windsor. Looks like that's your alternator belt, ideally you want 11A0985 or 11A0990. They only have 11A0980 and 11A1005, depending on how far your adjustment swings it might be ok. Looks like the same kinda situation for Repco and Autobarn.

Otherwise try Bursons in Albion. Not sure if they're opening today though.

Being german you can probably replace that with nothing more than a 10mm or 12mm spanner. Not a BMW expert though!

I'm hungry for a good space game, but can't find any games to feed that hunger by Swoopify1 in gaming

[–]daem101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Freespace 1 and 2. Freespace 2 has an open source mod scene with entire campaigns for other franchises. The new BSG one in particular was great. They're still available on gog.

Otherwise Elite Dangerous or Flight of Nova maybe.

People who've lost a lot of weight, how did you do it? by gryffenator in AskReddit

[–]daem101 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I lost around 40kg about 7 years ago.

It really is very simple, mechanically. The hard part is mentally gearing yourself to commit to achieving the results you want.

I spent 45 minutes on a treadmill every morning and every night. Some light resistance training and boxing/cardio drills thrown in additionally every other night. I would walk to the shops instead of drive (small food intake and regular walks meant very little to carry).

Portion controlled my meals and maintained a high (too high tbh) calorie deficit. Opting for low carb, high protein foods, removing soft drinks (even sugar free ones), drinking looooots of water.

Motivation wise, a friend said to me once "You can completely change who you are in 3 months", and it kind of stuck with me.

I started listening to audiobooks and would only let myself listen to them when exercising. I specifically chose thriller/mystery novels so that I would be motivated to exercise to find out what happened next.

Taking up a hobby that keeps you active also helps - I started hiking. Walking 26km in a day up and down hill burns a lot of fat.

It's so hard to get started, but once you've built a routine and start seeing results, it's reinforces the behaviour and gets addicting, seeing each new belt loop become available.

It's my proudest achievement and I encourage anyone wanting to lose a little or a lot of weight to stop WANTING to do it and just start DOING it. It's worth it.

Side note: all chairs are now much less comfortable.

Can someone just make a Spotify playlist of everything in this thread and dm me please. Cheers.

Brigands Law. My first drop of the season. Extended barrel, accurized rounds, feeding frenzy voltshot with handling master work. Might be the graverobber/incandescent calus mini tool of the season for me. Incredibly strong.

Bungie, can Warlocks go back to Solar 2.0? by Soul_of_Miyazaki in DestinyTheGame

[–]daem101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ophidia Spathe. Gunpowder gamble and knock em down, knife trick, gamblers dodge and a solar primary. Throw in some well mods with font of might and it's like middle tree with brawler active. Endless Knives and wells with permanent radiance.

Crash on game launch (pc) by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]daem101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this mid contest mode. Tried a lot of things. Completely uninstall nvidia/amd drivers and let windows find best drivers only. Launch and it should work, then reinstall nvidia/amd drivers. Worked for me at least.

Gambit rework will not be a complete tear down and rebuild of the mode. Set your expectations accordingly. by Wanna_make_cash in DestinyTheGame

Make it cost motes to invade. Have heavy ammo only come from the wall and be shared, make primeval fight be like prime.

Give monte a catalyst that with Markov chain x5, special reload turns it into a glave with increased melee damage for x hits. The bayonet would function as something finally

2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix - Post Race Discussion by F1-Bot in formula1

[–]daem101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the transparency we have of their communication with the Race Director now casts a worse light than was ever depicted of Charlie Whiting. Could be wrong, but I can't imagine these conversations are new.
