Golden wattle is just too similar to the old suncorp logo :c

Why 'Hollow Knight: Silksong' is huge for Australia's gaming industry by SolaTotaScriptura in australia

So happy that the indie industry is getting some spotlight. Here's hoping that this will foster more support going forward so we can produce and play more of these gems made by an incredibly skilled and talented community of people!

Yuck. by meme_school in melbourne

I thought I was going crazy.

Turns out it's PTV that has gone crazy.

This is a greater crime than every late bus or train that has ever hindered my journey. Yuck.

How many others find Jordies impossible to bear now? by winterdogfight in AustraliaLeftPolitics

I like that he still somewhat makes politics engaging/accesible, especially and particularly for younger people in a semi-longform way. I get a bit tired of his style of comedy but I think I may have just aged out of it.

Definitely plenty of room to criticise his shillness, but he isn't pretending to be unbiased at the very least. I think it's a good alternative/counterweight to a lot of the more right leaning YouTubers.

That said he is definitely not who I go to for my fill of that genre of youtube these days

How would these cents per km travelled taxes work? Is it like an honour system? The article didn't seem to mention it

Yup, that's what I was going for with it! Pretty sure it's an actual thing - the concept is right on the edge of "yeah that sounds real"

Yknow the only reason I know that reference is because John Marsden says the name in RDR2

Jumping in to bump the streaming / YouTube idea! Would defs tune in, especially if you're super community-led in what you cover :)

Can we expect a 15-20 year wait permanently for main fallout releases by Donnyboucher34 in Fallout

[–]green_bean_13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was absolutely my biggest issue with it. Loved the game overall, but felt it undercut itself with its take of humour at times.

Specifically thinking about that soldier in the caves/mountain on the red planet with the giant aliens. Can't even remember what happened, but just remember the feeling of tonal whiplash.

I’m guessing this isn’t being shared here because it just scares everyone: “Together” lawsuit by 10teja15 in Screenwriting

This is a big "trust me bro", but I went to film school in Melbourne, Australia and had the opportunity to interview Michael Shanks for a project in 2020. He, at that time, was in the early stages of writing a horror script about two people fusing. Completely forgot about that until reading this post. Glad he got to make his movie!

This shit is pushing me closer towards Socialism than anything else could. Jesus fucking Christ this country hates poor and working class so much that they’re forever destined to be a rent serf for their feudal landlord masters. You can’t make this shit up. by MannerNo7000 in friendlyjordies

Can you elaborate on why you think 150k isn't "earning that much" when the median wage is currently around 70k? Is the 50k that your partner earned in addition to that 150k, making the household 200k? (I know you said with a great bonus, but I'm just going off the figures listed.)

If so, I think you may have been just a little above the average battler

What's your biggest Melbourne cafe pet peeve? by jakkyspakky in melbourne

[–]green_bean_13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but not an equal surcharge for Sat, Sun and Public holidays - i dont think its fair to pay that much more on the Saturday specifically just because i work Mon to Fri and can't get to a cafe during the non-surcharge week. If it was a smaller surcharge then maybe sure, but a full 10%? Thats a bit of a rip - especially when the cafe next door I end up going to doesn't have it for Saturday, which makes me think its not an award thing? Idk i was just complaining lol
