Dick Smith had a sale on Eneloops for $20 for an 8-pack (they're usually $40, best I could find elsewhere in a quick look around was $35) on... I think Thursday? Reptile posted the link sometime in the middle of the day.
That's where it's at!Nah, it's fine. Might get me more followers and increase my epeen
I find the best thing about the Twitter bot is that if there's a discussion I don't care about (e.g. the recent political talk), I can just scroll past it while checking my Twitter feed. If I find something interesting has been said I'll either click the link or go into Secondapps. Hopefully it doesn't lead to me being even less active here.
was sick all day and totally forgot ....fuck >_<
but if its anything like afl finals tickets, its kinda pointless standing in line coz they are basically using a computer like online users and it is prone to borking too.
ps: nz only got 1 show :x

Where are y'all trying to get tickets to?
Batteries? I thought they were highlighters.
Batteries?
I thought they were highlighters.What's the story?Thanks for the heads up, reptile.
BTW I had tickets to go to a Radiohead concert once, but stupid Thom with his stupid crappy voice couldn't make it. Stupid crappy Thom.
Edit: Already answered. Nevermind.
With the tickets that went on sale today, is it not wise for me to try and pick up my New Order and Aphex Twin tickets? I'd be going to that "new" Ticketmaster super store thing on Flinders and Russell.
Radiohead are touring in November, there was a shitty, buggy, fucking cunt of a pre-sale on.
...ahem

Radiohead.
Mum just rang, she's sitting with 4 devices all on the site refreshing trying to get tickets lol.
All else being equal, ASUS, because they usually have the little block thing that makes front panel connectors easier to plug in.

Asus/Gigabyte. My current one is a gigabyte.
Yeh I've been completely snowed under recently to even think about planning it, but I'm still keen. Can you post the infographic?
Mum ended up giving up on melb tickets and tried brisbane and got them instantly.
Is the 64GB SSD used as an OS? Then No. And I don't even think a standard SSD fits in the response section. You need something smaller.
Eh on the second one. Prob not worth your time.
Don't forget Bush! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7RVp3DvX1o
I only really knew glycerine but playing saints row 3 and hearing machinehead got me into them and I bought sixteen stone, great album.
Pity I have a friend coming down from sydney for a catchup on saturday otherwise i'd go to see them

To clarify, is that watching GSL or playing starcraft, or both? Because any of those sound great. Stupid Melbourne, why are all your wonderful things so far away? ;.;
Watching the GSL finals.

Barcraft is generally just watching GSL. It's the finals though so yesssss
I'm going with a bud so I'll probs see you guys there if you're going.
Also: RE: Radiohead. I think there will be a way better shot at GA thurs morning. Or at least I hope so. If I can't get some I'll cry.

Raaaaage!
Let's just get this out of the way: I didn't even use the third disc. W. T. F.
My impressions of the game haven't changed since I posted my initial impressions. The driving is pointless, but given I can just rush from point A to point B without bothering to fight anyone, I mostly treated it as an annoying loading screen.
Not having any choice but to accept quests doesn't make any sense at all, and has been discussed a lot in reviews, but I still don't understand how they thought it was a good thing.
The finale crept up on me incredibly quickly, partly because I figured that the third disc was going to be, you know, content. There was no tension, no excitement, nothing to overcome (oh hey, there's these guys you've seen maybe twice in the past 10 hours, we hate them, so you have to go and destroy them). No interest.
I think that is the biggest problem with Rage. The technical side of it -- the graphics, sound, controls, the visceral shooting -- is excellent, but there's no reason for it to exist. I felt no compulsion to push forward, no interest in the vehicles, no excitement. By far the most interesting moments were
and
. Outside of those two moments, the whole game was pretty pedestrian.
Dare I say it, even COD has a more compelling narrative than Rage.

pushing back the onslaught of mutants (and dual tentacle guys) in Grand Central

Thanks
I live in Brisbane, but it appears there isn't one happening here. There's even one in Hobart! Are there even enough starcraft players there to fill a bar?
While we talk about meeting up...
SydGAF Board Gamers... When will our next day be? Probably best if we keep it to Sundays. I can currently do any upcoming day. Which Sunday's are good for the rest of you? Also, anybody else interested in joining in that didn't express interest for the first?

Oh, if no one expresses any interest in hosting the AusGAF community edition of Rage (360) by Friday, I'll post it back to Gaz since there's no one after me in the spreadsheet. Thanks once again for loaning out your copy!

Speaking of which, Fogz is done with my Infamous 2 and Killzone 3 if anyone is interested is getting their hands on them.
according to bigfooty, there is another tranche of presale tickets tomorrow too ._.
You're reading that wrong. That was someone posting yesterday about the tickets going on sale today.
So do Razer make crap mice? I've had my razer naga for less than a year and used it only on one of their gaming mats and the laser seems to be failing.
If I move the cursor right across the screen it will hitch about the centre of the screen for half a sec. I've tried different usb ports, updated firmware and drivers. Driving me insane.
I used to have an old microsoft $20 laser mouse that has gone strong for years and years, still works.
