I'm typing this on a M1 Pro McBook right now and let me tell you, from all of my Steam games maybe 10% are compatible with macOS/Apple Silicon. I tried Crossover and it kinda sucks.

It's a shame really when you consider that Apple once had a better gaming scene than Windows/MS DOS, but it clearly hadn't been a focus for Apple for a long time until maybe 2 or so years ago.

But yeah, gaming on Linux is awesome and is gonna get even better with stuff like Wine 11 eventually coming to Proton.

The media is quite allergic to calling him a nazi. Remember when he did his "gesture reminiscent of a hitler salute"?

Just include the author in the title, in addition to your suggestion.

I find it strange that there's a discussion about whether to credit artists or not at all

This shouldn't sound so great. What is wrong with the world...

Can 13 year olds legally drive in Australia?

Nah. The article states it was stolen, and also a Hyundai; I vaguely remember there being some TikTok "trend" of people (mostly teens) stealing specifically Kias and Hyundais, I think due to them lacking immobilisers or something, that probably had something to do with it.

I hope she'll go straight into therapy with her parents ideally being questioned about this. Not saying they are necessarily at fault, but there's no way a 13-year-old does something like this without outside influence.

Couldn’t they theoretically just use PebbleOS?

You know, when I was in Australia I mostly relied on public transport and I thought that not only was it more reliable than here in Germany (not a huge surprise), but a lot cheaper, too.

I think I paid under $50 to get from Sydney to Wagga via TrainLink, in a first class carriage. You pay well over $200 for similar fares over here.

 

I plan on moving from Germany to Australia in September.

So far I've been doing ok with the planning but I was wondering if there were any specific groups or forums for people like me/expats in Australia with tips and connections that could be useful to me. I already looked at a bunch of forums and it seems that at least the German language ones are largely inactive.

 

Looks more like a cove imo

Near West Head, Sydney. Sorry for the crappy photo, I had to zoom in quite a bit.

 

Super cool location, felt pretty unreal actually being there... shame you can't go inside any more

Edit: Seems like they made a new website for it! I hope they can turn it around somehow

Before you say something, I am aware now that cashew nuts aren't that good for them (too fatty) and that you probably shouldn't feed them at all.

I went to the Lagoon that morning specifically to feed a cocky and I did... as well as about a dozen ducks. I'm sorry, I won't do it again.

 

Sat there for 20+ minutes just taking it all in

 

Saw some people posting random pictures lately, figured I might as well join in. This was near Wollundry Lagoon in Wagga

 

First of all, sorry if this really isn't the right spot for this but I figured that maybe some Aussies in here recognise it.

I've had this stuffed frilled-neck lizard since roughly 2006 when a family member brought it back from Australia for me, I know for sure that my brother had a stuffed dinosaur with a similar design on it. According to the tag it was hand made in Australia by "Kurrajong Aboriginal Products". A quick search brought me to a company with the same name that sells child education books and hand made dolls, so the connection is kinda there but I can't be sure; they don't sell stuffed animals (anymore). I'd really like to know if anyone has seen these or even has one.

Here's some pictures I took of it.

When I was in Australia myself a while ago I searched for similar things but couldn't find anything. Even the museum shops I went to only seemed to sell generic Chinese-made stuff, which really is a shame but anyway...

 

I just came back from a 6 week trip to Australia; spending time with my relatives (some of whom I've never met before or haven't seen in 20 years) and I had a really really really great time. Everyone was so welcoming and just appreciative; I was really overwhelmed by how amazing the whole experience was.

On my flight back I was crying the whole time; I never felt like that before and just couldn't handle my emotions (much to the dismay of the people sitting next to me). Most of all I just didn't wanna return to my dysfunctional family in Germany. It's been my goal to move to Australia for some time now but after this experience I'm determined to move as soon as possible. It's gonna take a lot of figuring stuff out and it won't be easy but I'll make it work.

Just wanted to get that out there I guess.

Edit: if someone happens to have a few tips and pointers for me regarding my plans they would be greatly appreciated

 

Does anyone know how to order or configure the P14s G5 AMD with a OLED display on the German Lenovo site?

The OLED display seems to be NA exclusive apart from a few overpriced offers from third party sites...
