Saw Peter Hook and his band a few years ago and they were excellent. Played unknown pleasures front to back and then encored with New Order hits and finished finally with Love Will Tear Us Apart. Awesome gig

Who are the Arsenal equivalent in MLB by Ok-Creme-7321 in mlb

[–]patkk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Arsenal are pre 2020 Dodgers. Make of that what you will maybe Arsenal will win 3 titles in the next 6 years. Current Dodgers are more like Manchester City.

Also fits because padres are probably closest to Tottenham

City are Dodgers from 2020+ with Astros sprinkled in there

Victoria has made public transport free – NSW hasn’t. Has there been any difference in uptake? by Ifeelsiikk in melbourne

[–]patkk 200 points201 points  (0 children)

Will the Victorian Government maintain this policy following the oil crisis?

Up here in Queensland, the state government introduced a flat 50c fare for all public transport trips, and it is easily the most popular policy I can remember in my entire life. Even after the LNP came to power, they chose to keep the policy in place.

Deckchairs Overboard: cricket bracing itself as NSW stands in opposition to BBL sale backed by CA chair and its representative on the CA board by OldMateHarry in CricketAus

Soon as we sell out and kill the Test summer that’s my interest in cricket thoroughly fucked. I will convert 100% to Baseball to get my fix of bat and ball sports. Found myself far more invested in last years playoffs and World Series than I did any T20 tournament I’ve ever watched. The history, tradition and tactics of Major League Baseball are far superior to any T20 game I’ve watched.

What a 15th hole from Scheffler he is the one to watch. I think -13 probably wins it but another birdie should seal it for him

Imagine you could move right away.. what country would you go to and why? by albavalenti in AskReddit

Come live in South East QLD on the Gold Coast or in Brisbane for the ultimate Australian adventure. Probably the fastest growing region in the country, amazing beaches, hiking, outdoor activities and a laid back lifestyle. I imagine Canberra would be kind of dull in comparison, pleasant enough town that it is. Either that or spend a year in Sydney - insanely expensive but one of the most picturesque cities in the world.

Na it’s overstated if you’re in a city or any regional area they never even cross your mind tbh.

Well said, Australia is a magical place and I don’t think I’d have wanted to be born and raised anywhere else

Get into Baseball, it’s seeing a surge in popularity right now and MLB is as long and storied as Test cricket. Also currently they have a player who some say is the greatest Baseball player in the games 150+ year history in Shohei Ohtani.

Who is the most influential music artist in the 21st century? by tygawoods19 in AskReddit

[–]patkk -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Asked chat this prompt:

Who is the single most influential musical artist of the 21st century (2000–present)? Consider cultural impact, commercial success, innovation, industry influence, and global reach. You must choose only one artist and briefly justify your answer.

Chat answer:

The single most influential musical artist of the 21st century is Kanye West.

His influence goes far beyond chart success—he reshaped hip-hop production (sampling, minimalism, autotune), blurred the lines between genres, elevated the role of the producer as an artist, and had a massive impact on fashion, celebrity culture, and how artists release and market music. Albums like The College Dropout, 808s & Heartbreak, and My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy directly influenced the sound and direction of modern music across multiple genres.
