It's the only way I could have typed anything of substance for the past 2 months with a fractured elbow.
I have a pair of Phillips Fidelio X2HR for my PC where I listen to most things; an unexpected brand compared to the likes of Sony or Sennheiser. I'm considering an upgrade to a close-backed pair of headphones since I don't live alone and my PC space is nearby to the kitchen, so I would like to block sound out.
In the gym out back I use a Google Mini. Living where I am now I haven't needed earbuds for public transport so I don't have any. I will eventually buy a pair for when I go camping and want to watch something on my phone.
I have the OG Oodie, but there's some cheaper versions around.
A hot water bottle is also essential. Buy another for pre-heating the bed at night.
I know it must be hyperbole... I would just be happy with a few years in prison as a deterrent and some long community service to bring them back to reality.
In Australia the main chains are total garbage. If you want takeout it's better to buy from some local places. What I end up buying consistently is usually fish 'n chips when I'm by the seaside.
Any of the re-textures from Xavbio are a must-have, if that counts...
Otherwise I have Artificer with Reliquary of Myth overriding to overhaul as many artifacts and unique items as possible.
There's also the Regal Paladin Armor my knight is rocking.
It's really sad to see. You would think those in Labor would know first-hand how batshit insane their colleagues are across the aisle and leap at the opportunity to right the ship while they've got the chance. Doesn't it suck to feel powerless in Opposition compared to Government? Faffing around and not addressing cost of living means voters get upset and will take it out on them; "Opposition don't win elections, Governments lose them". Labor hasn't been known for the past couple of decades to hold government as long as the LNP, so they will be pushed out with nothing to their name at this rate; I don't think anybody is going to remember getting double medications per script, even if that's really handy for me personally. Since they hid the Federal ICAC from the public eye that's not going to generate any political capital for them either.
They're banking on using the Voice as another legacy trophy but it has nothing on Medicare, which hasn't quite been as gutted as the NDIS or NBN, just from it's scope I think. They're also just hoping that it's going to pass, but if it doesn't? They have nothing to show. Will we suddenly see a flurry of legislation if it fails, to save face? That seems like madness.
It's too bad I already wrote like that before ChatGPT was public. For fun I put in an essay of mine from a couple of years back into a detector that told me parts were generated by AI ☠️
Since I'm limited to one hand (I fractured my elbow), I've been going back to my strategy game catalogue. At first I started with Endless Legend, which I've got over 100 hours in, but I wasn't vibing with it. The backlog game I had on the side, Age of Wonders Planetfall, became my main game. I'm still trying to get into it, but it just feels too cluttered for it's own good. I don't think I want to give up on it but alongside that I began playing Endless Space 2 which is really cool! Even with experience in the Endless series it still feels a bit complicated, it's not as insane as Stellaris, but I have a good feeling about it now.
It's a whole new universe.
So how do we stop that happening here? Do we just bounce between admins as they eventually can't pay for their servers?
It's always the people you most expect.
