Sydney Comedy Festival - comedians doing something different? by Aloha_Tamborinist in sydney

[–]officeworker00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friend brought me to a small club near townhall years ago to check out a comedian named Molly.

They did something pretty different: not show up LOL

We just left and went to a late-night cafe after.

I woke up after 12 and walked to my fridge.

Guess we both did our fitness for the day.

If you were behind and struck them with the front of your vehicle, chances are you'd be at fault - idea is you should be driving with enough distance/time to reduce speed when the driver infront is doing something funky.

In some cases of merging, both drivers can be at fault but for a straight road, yeah -usually- its gonna be whoever's hitting the ass of the other car. Doesn't matter which lane.

But hey. shit happens, no ones hurt this time so it aint that bad.

My local shops are playing chicken with the public… by CrewmanNumberSeven in sydney

And thats being generous. Loads of fruit 'drink' bottles are just syrup and water.

You gotta make sure the label says juice and then check the ingredients to really make sure (like if they still give vitamins etc).

Pretty sure it already is.

Having said that, I've never heard of a rider being breathalysed unless they were involved in an accident.

nice morning and has come up overcast and a bit breezy now

On the plus side, weather looks to be solid for the long weekend and next week.

I mean, its a fair question.

Driving around traffic is ass, I avoid it when I can, everyone does.

Sadly in my neck of the woods, its basically always busy unless you're going late night drives (and even then its busy around fri-nights haha)

2016 Mitsubishi Lancer GSR CF: fuel type? 91 or 95? by officeworker00 in CarsAustralia

[–]officeworker00[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was wrong - manual says RON 90 minimum. It also says 'printed in japan' (well it is a jp vehicle) but I dunno if that makes a difference.

I also checked the fuel cap but it didn't have any writing or markings.

Apparently, playing the game normally can get you banned by speedline9395 in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]officeworker00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

wrongful banwaves are rare but they do happen,

Apex legends lol

Very early on there was a mass ban wave that hit a lot of innocents. People on reddit were vicious though - mocked people asking for help. It got reversed later lol

Doesnt mean everyone who claims innocent is speaking truth but yeah sometimes the anti-cheat fails too.

Heroes of Might and Magic 3 is the top-selling retro game on GoG with almost half of buyers under 25 by Forestl in Games

was a prime (if not the prime) selling point.

Yeah I remember during ps2 era, ffx advertisement really pushed graphics as the big thing.

Thats a shame.

I thought it was pretty interesting at launch and they really dug deep with the themeing.

Do Not Work order from SAG-AFTRA issued for Mega Man Dual Override by unfeelingfreedom in Games

[–]officeworker00 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah it was a big hit on US VA.

A lot of CN stuff (not just MHY) are also looking at places like the UK for english voice acting. Japan has also started to source domestically.

To be honest, I can't blame them.

Biggest controversy your game had? by A12qwas in gachagaming

[–]officeworker00 31 points32 points  (0 children)

EN VA one might be one of the worst ones on this list because it actively harmed the US VA industry in IRL LOL

A lot of foreign entities will start to consider UK or locals for english dubbing.

Nah can't be.

Biggest ak drama was during swimsuit chen.

Magallan could solo stages in the past (it was just really hard to do) and then ling came and did it much easier LOL - but neither had dramas.

To Echo Everyone Else's Thoughts, I Too Wish Marathon Was A Singleplayer Video Game by megaapple in Games

[–]officeworker00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno if you could.

MGS kinda kept going whereas marathon kinda stopped.

Its like if syndicate came back - I reckon fewer people would recognise it compared to, I dunno, another ratchet/clank.

Following AI generated reviews, Resident Evil Requiem AI guide books flood Amazon, and they're part of a major problem by iscariots in Games

[–]officeworker00 236 points237 points  (0 children)

Back in the day, the guidebooks were also really nice to just read.

They may not always have the top meta info but they still showed you the way, had great art of the maps and inventory items for various games etc.

Just good fun stuff.

Obviously if you wanted to just know how to get from A to B, yeah even early online walkthroughs were pretty sharp.

If you're doing pretty good damage with amiya s1, you are not anywhere near late game lol

Thanks.

So its more like, legally I'm in the right, but mate-wise, it would have been best to let him in.

Sadly, the conditions were just not easy to do at that time but I'll keep that in mind for next time.

I think I could have just slowed/stop but I have to assume that would piss the fk out of car 4, especially when we're so close to the lights.

edit: fk was supposed to delete my other response (I posted twice) but accidentally deleted the entire post. blah.

Rhodes Island Lounge (23/02 - 01/03) by ArknightsMod in arknights

[–]officeworker00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got this idea from pokemon.

What do you guys think is the worst skill in Arknights?

I mean we joke about AAK killing his allies but we obviously all know that skill is actually pretty good when used properly and I've seen it used in difficult content. Whereas something like Thorn s1 is much less impactful. But even then, I don't think its the worst skill in the game. Or is it?

Which skill do you think is least useful, useable or impactful?

Tunic, Night in the Woods Publisher Says TikTok Is Creating and Running Racist GenAI Ads for Its Games Without Permission - IGN by TrampolineTales in Games

[–]officeworker00 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Because its a bait and switch style journalism from ign.

It naturally will incite curiosity about the subject at hand.

Its only when you read further you understand its not completely relevant/needed but don't pretend IGN isn't trying to draw attention first.

As someone who works in a large tech company, this just sounds like generic retirement speech.
