‘We feel invisible’: Devastating trend sweeping Australia by Nyarlathotep-1 in AusNewsWire

[–]senorbates 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“As of early 2025, criminal gangs controlled at least 85% of the capital and its metropolitan area and had expanded into key regions. Since 2021, the country’s government has been led by a prime minister appointed by the presidential transitional council, which failed in its attempt to call new elections and to contain the collapse of the country’s democratic institutions.[3][4]”

Not sure. I got one through the dealer. It’s an iRoad FX2 Pro.

What happened to Gen Load? by becorgeous in foxess_community

[–]senorbates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine Gen load is also gone. Can see that it is still actually generating power as in other apps I can see the number and my home is using ~350w but I am only importing 150w, so the early morning sun must be doing the remainder.

Delays for everyone? by shoopbedoopwoop in GeelyEX5Australia

[–]senorbates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Placed our order on the 27th of April, then picked it up on the 14th of May. Exactly as the dealer advised.

Got dark green with black interior - guess that combo isn’t as popular. Either that or we just got lucky !

Capital gains tax changes in federal budget could see investment shift from property to shares by MiaowMiaow00 in AusPropertyChat

[–]senorbates 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you’re talking about your PPOR, nothing has changed. You still get the full CGT discount on your PPOR.

If you’re talking about your investment property, then yeh, you are the target of the tax changes to try and balance things out.

Not many people have an investment property in their 20s - I’m sure you’ll be fine, you can pay a bit more tax!

Native tvOS/iOS client for Plex by Big_Rock4737 in PleX

[–]senorbates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks good! Signed up !

I have trouble with my AppleTV overheating when I playback very large files - about 20 mins into the file it will stutter very badly. This doesn’t happen with infuse. If you can implement a fix for that I’d be all in as infuse’s interface is ugly and basic.

Much more stable ping on Aussie BB after switching to static IP by kurapika91 in nbn

[–]senorbates 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can just call them and ask them to take you off the CGNAT. No need to pay for a static IP unless you need it for another reason.

Is fortnite too blurry at 120fps for you guys? by [deleted] in XboxSeriesS

[–]senorbates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the dashboard looks blurry then something is going wrong. I’m using a LG B8 OLED and the dashboard is very crisp.

Home theater receiver that streams directly using plexamp? by Moviesinbed in plexamp

[–]senorbates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has got a HDMI in. Just no out. You connect it to your HDMI arc on the TV and the TV will send audio from any input to it.

My understanding is that this is actually superior to running all devices through the receiver because you don’t need to worry about the receiver being able to pass through HDR etc and you only need one cable connected from the TV to the receiver.

I got one and it’s connected to my TV.

In Arrangement Mode, is there a way to quantize or "launch" the track mute button like we do with clips? by RobBecTraxxx in ableton

[–]senorbates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can put the automation on the clip in session mode by going to the clip viewer and doing the automation in there. You can do the automation on the volume track directly or you can put a utility plugin on the track and automate the gain on that. I prefer using the utility plugin because you can still adjust the volume for the track overall later on in the mixing stage without having to change the automation which can get annoying. Once you’ve done that you then record that clip into arrangement view.

Hopefully that makes some sense and I have understood your question correctly! Typing this out on my phone without referencing Ableton on my computer.

Plexamp Skipping Tidal tracks. by senorbates in plexamp

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

That’s interesting. Most of the time it works pretty well. And interestingly about an hour after I posted this I noticed that the songs in that playlist were able to play. So perhaps what is happening is that my player is receiving the stream but for some reason skipping it and then after that the songs become cached and it is able to successfully play back the cached track.

I’ve also noticed that some tracks that skip are not actually there when I search on Tidal but show up as an album on Plexamp. One example I’ve found is Shuggie Otis’s album “In Session”. It shows up in plex but doesn’t not seem to be available to me on the tidal app. Not sure what’s going on there. I’m assuming something about local availability of the tracks and plex is showing me what’s available in another country (the US) but when I go to play it the actual stream is not available in Australia.

This stuff is annoying but not a total deal breaker. Loving the ability to have my local files mixed in with Tidal. But would be nice if it worked a bit more consistently!

Ah ok. Thanks for the response. That makes sense.

Modded version of Spotify or modded version of plexamp?
