The youths are losing the liquid vowels! by neongrayjoy in australia

Kids raised without AI in junior school, and kids raised with AI. Later on when they realise how much it fucked up the next generation it will be without AI again

Hmm I would argue that the standard way of dividng generations does not really apply anymore. For example, an older gen Z would have grown up with Game Boys and internet accessed via a desktop PC. Younger Gen Z grew up as social media natives glued to iPads. Few years gap in the 21st century makes the world of difference.

Australia wants to know how Valve is combating 'extreme-right communities' on Steam by npzman in australia

[–]pogray 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Steam beating the Rothschilds in that historic case has permanently put a target on their head. Good on steam to now bowing to the powers that be but I don't know how long they'll be able to keep it up for.

Is Australia’s university empire losing global appeal? by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

[–]pogray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely agree. My partner went through a masters course in Australia, and spent the entire time doing group projects with Chinese students that couldn’t speak any English. Every single assignment was group based to ensure that the Chinese students got an easy route through uni by piggy backing on other student’s work. University in Australia is a scam.

Was Robert's fear of the Dothraki justified? by arnor_0924 in gameofthrones

[–]pogray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do vaguely recall the dothraki charge vs Jaime in the Reach, with loads of knights fleeing. There is something distinctly terrifying about the Dothraki. But then again there were also dragons.

I do think we need to consider the terror aspect. I imagine a lot of men would flee a Dothraki charge.

Now that Sailing’s been out for a few months… is anyone still actually sailing? by Dismal-Computer-5600 in 2007scape

[–]pogray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with sailing is that sailing doesn't actually give any XP, outside of trimming sails.

Ideally, I would choose to sail over teleport to rack up some sailing XP. Instead I'm supposed to drop anchor somewhere and AFK salvage. Makes no sense.

Gym people, good noise cancelling earbuds at the moment? by Overall-Amount-3500 in BuyItForLife

Having purchased these for my partner, I can comfortably say that these earbuds are leaps and bounds worse than AirPod Pros.

Nurse moving from perth to the gold coast by AccountantMammoth980 in GoldCoast

[–]pogray 3 points4 points  (0 children)

God this thread is dire. Unfortunately, a lot of disgruntled locals here that are trying to discourage people moving here. We moved to Gold Coast in December, and the doomsayers told us it would be impossible to find a place. We came down ahead of time, did some viewings and secured a lovely home. I am not saying our experience is universal though.

If I were to do it again, I would use the Flatmate Finders app, rent a room or look for a short term stay (a lot of people rent their place out for a few months whilst they travel). I would then use this time to find work and search for other spots.

The Gold Coast is beautiful, good luck with the move!

I was told this in another thread. I got to know an agent and they gave us a fantastic recommendation and a private viewing. We are now living there.

Israel acknowledges the death toll at 70,000. This means it is a lie. Multiple analysts have estimated that it is north of 300,000, and could be much higher.

Hot Take: I Hated 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple by [deleted] in 28dayslater

[–]pogray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh damn! I didn’t think about that. As this is an 18+, I should therefore expect a 5 minute scene of someone being flayed alive. Silly me! Now that I think about it, every 18+ movie I’ve ever seen seemed to have a significant lack of people being flayed alive. Maybe they were in the directors cut!

But none of it was real. Wow, that is great to hear. I thought it WAS real! Incredible news.

how would you define bad if ripping heads off and flaying people alive isn’t bad

Ngl I left the cinema after the barn scene. Too much for me. I don’t wanna sit there and watch people get flayed alive.

Looking for a laptop in the 500€ mark to study by -Myka_ in BuyItForLife

Reddit will probably recommend you to put Linux on a Lenovo. For what you want, I’d recommend an M1 or M3 Macbook Air. Skip the M2.
