I've never used discord outside of multiplayer online gaming. And not for years now..

It has IRL event promotion on it now?

Let me clarify.

Before the algorithm when both fb and forums coexisted was still annoying.

Some events would be on forums.

Some on fb

Some both.

Occasionally I would miss out on early bird tickets or tickets all together.

There was never a point where Facebook made anything better on that front.

Don't even get me started on the fuckery that fb marketplace is vs what we had.

Couldn't disagree more.

Prior to fb, there was dedicated forums for the music scene I was in to in my area. Everything was in them. Finding what was on was easy as all the promotors used them.

Then fb came along, the forums slowly faded and finding events became unreliable in fb's chaotic algorithm bullshit. Now some things are not on it, some are insta only etc.

Fuck META.

Yep this is classic rage bait media.

It took me longer than many but I accepted it to.

Never going back to cable slap when exercising. True wireless buds for ever.

SD card would certainly be nice still.

But realistically I'll likely still buy this as long as it has half decent specs and is IP67+

No way is it reasonable to WFH by yourself with a child under the age of 5. You would either be not providing enough attention to the child or work.

Ironically I bought a cheap moto g because microslop intune settings where I work do not allow for Graphene os in the attestation check. Only use it when wfh so if I'm away from my desk I don't miss teams calls and look like I'm doing laundry (which I probably am)

Could we citizens of the 5 eyes countries gag on the boot any harder ?

Fuck we are pathetic at what we take from our governments.

Truth be told I was hoping for Sony because I really like their high end phones from a hard ware point of view.

This better be flagship level specs.

Wild to me.

I'll stick to my poached chicken and salad.

If anything I've gone backwards the last couple of years in maturity since turning 40. Probably mid life crisis coming on strong.

Can't make this shit up, reality is beyond satire at this point.

This is the same media talking head who argued against Labor's fibre to the premises national broadband network. Who then brown noses NBN execs to get his own house upgraded to Fibre as a higher priority than anyone else.

Copper for thee, fibre for me.

What the hell happened to the federal ICAC anyway. Still waiting for all the politicians who spent billions buying back Telstra's rotten copper to go to jail.

 

The WA government is pressing ahead with its plan to create a motorsport street circuit in Burswood Park.

It is opening the community consultation process for the controversial new proposal.

But Treasurer Rita Saffioti has denied it will only be a motorsport track, saying it will be a "multi-use facility".

 

I thought it was odd that I've been able to enjoy this perfect weather instead of being holed up indoors to escape the smoke.

West Australians believe the state’s capital will need to rapidly decarbonise and diversify its mining-dependent economy, halt urban sprawl and support more apartments if it is to accommodate 3.5 million people by 2050, according to a new report by a Perth think-tank.
