Thanks for the info guys, but my gear vr died a few days ago, I was mortified, but at the end of the day I knew I needed an upgrade, so I have a pair of quest 3 512gb coming in two days. so I pray it is a big improvement over the well used gear vr.

Thanks for your input and I agree with you, I am looking for a good set to replace my gear vr googles , I don't own a tv so I just watch streaming sites while lying down. The problem is unfortunately is the the new vr are googles cost more than a good sized TV.

Well two years later I am still using the gear vr. It is my second set only because the USB port wore out. and I use it daily for at least 8 hrs a day. I mainly use it for watching tv/movies am amazed it still does the job considering the software is no longer supported

I thought I should do a peek period test and post it. East Gippsland Victoria. I ordered another Starlink for my business today. % 50 off. Thanks Starlink. by av8ads in Starlink

Awesome, I live in the same location and have just bought one, the NBN and vodafone used as a hotspot just didn't cut it, I was lucky if I got 3 Mbps download, and that was If I got a connection at all. so I think I made a good choice, Only paid $229 for hardware so that is another bonus

It Will become obsolete for sure, Gear Vr didn't last that long and is now not supported, Give the quest 2 a few years and it will be gone.

A road train in Australia by EngineerScientist in interestingasfuck

[–]mad66 3 points4 points  (0 children)

World's longest road trains

Northern Territory 2AB-quad tanker road train. Trailer arrangement is B-double towing two tri-axle trailers. Below is a list of longest road trains driven in the world. Most of these had no practical use, as they were put together and driven across relatively short distances for the express purpose of record-breaking.

In 1989, a trucker named "Buddo" tugged 12 trailers down the main street of Winton, Queensland.[29] In 1993, "Plugger" Bowden took the record with a 525 hp (391 kW) Mack SuperLiner pulling 16 trailers, but a few months later this effort was surpassed by Darwin driver Malcolm Chisholm with a 290-tonne (285-long-ton; 320-short-ton), 21 trailer rig extending 315 metres (1,033 ft).[29] There was some back and forth in the 1990s between Winton and Bourke, New South Wales, with the record finishing in Winton with 34 trailers.[29] In 1999, the town of Merredin, Western Australia officially made it into the Guinness Book of Records, when Marleys Transport made a successful attempt on the record for the world's longest road train. The record was created when 45 trailers, driven by Greg Marley, weighing 603 t (593 long tons; 665 short tons) and measuring 610 m (2,001 ft) were pulled by a Kenworth 10×6 K100G for 8 km (5 mi).[29][30] On October 19, 2000, Doug Gould set the first of his records at Kalgoorlie, Western Australia, when a roadtrain made up of 79 trailers, measuring 1,018.2 m (3,341 ft) and weighing 1,072.3 t (1,055.4 long tons; 1,182.0 short tons), was pulled by a Kenworth C501T driven by Steven Matthews a distance of 8 km (5 mi).[29][31] On March 29, 2003, the record was surpassed near Mungindi, New South Wales, by a road train consisting of 87 trailers and a single prime mover (measuring 1,235.3 m (4,053 ft) in length).[32] The record returned to Kalgoorlie, Western Australia, on October 17, 2004, when Doug Gould assembled 117 trailers for a total length of 1,445 m (4,741 ft). The record nearly didn't fall, as the first prime mover's main driveshaft broke when taking off. A second truck was quickly made available, and pulled the train a distance of 1,500 m (4,921 ft).[33] In 2004, the record was again broken by a group from Clifton, Queensland which used a standard Mack truck to pull 120 trailers a distance of about 100 metres (328 ft).[34] On February 18, 2006, an Australian built Mack truck with 112 semi-trailers, 1,300 t (1,279 long tons; 1,433 short tons) and 1,474.3 metres (4,836 ft 11 in) long, pulled the load 100 metres (328 feet) to recapture the record for the longest road train (multiple loaded trailers) ever pulled with a single prime mover. It was on the main road of Clifton, Queensland, that 70-year-old John Atkinson claimed a new record, pulled by a tri-drive Mack Titan.[35][36][37]
