I got one of amazon.com.au in June. The price was pretty much the same as the direct conversion from USD, and it got delivered the next day. Obv a 3rd party seller but have been super happy with the purchase.
So many times I forget to plug the deck or someone uses the charging cable for something else and I come back to play the next weekend and the deck is at 0%. Why doesn’t the deck have a deep sleep or hibernate mode on by default like my laptop or iPad?
Yah all good questions and good responses. Suspend is great for this handheld, but as @PlasticExistence mentions linux isn’t great at suspend out of the box and having a very configurable embedded system like the steamdeck lumps it in this basket.
I was switching to that Up Bank (by Bendigo), but they straight refuse to let me fund my crypto account, so that’s out because I just want basic control of my own money....
I think a lot of the ‘customer owned’ banks are usually good, they can be regional based as well. IE for Newcastle area Greater Bank and Newcastle Permanent Buildng Society both have lots of branches and good customer support for local. I used to like StGeorge until Westpac took them over, went downhill after that
Another week another horrible referee blunder costing a team a win. Especially harsh since the Titans were beaten the previous week from giving away a penalty in this exact same scenario.
Got a perfect round , much thanks to the refs on that last game :-) Time to start checking the run home for em all now, nothing but injuries or suspensions should get in the way now. I think we’ve had all the coach sackings for the year surely.

Find this hard to believe, I expected they must have broken through 30k at some point over the years. Maybe outside of the Eastern Suburbs they dont have too many supporters, or the Easterm Suburbs people dont even join up? Dolphins sent out an email in June saying they have 28.5k members already.
Ya was funny, after Roosters crowed about 20k the Swans sent out an email about 62k. AFAIK AFL memberships are quite varied and different, giving a lot more options / affordability.
Being on Commonwealth land, the site would be able to accommodate around-the-clock activity without having to comply with state and council regulations, hence BAC’s Skygate precinct having Queensland’s only 24-hour Woolworths supermarket.
Agreed, especially since a stock EV is already fairly fast. Most manufacturers are releasing performance variants as well with extra grunt and better handling. Also the EV manufacturers are more aligned to automall / online selling (Tesla,polestar,Hyundai), missed opportunity there for them. With the fed gov removal of FBT on sub 90k EV’s fleet / novated lease companies are also prime for an automall.
www.energymadeeasy.gov.auMy current provider, like all of them, jacked up my leccy prices in July, but a bit too far for my liking.

Yeah I’m keeping an eye out for that, wondering if the company I switched to (Red Energy) is gonna jack their prices to make them above my previous (momentum). Suprisingly they havent sent out a welcome pack yet, usually it’s pretty quick to lock you in, so I’m wondering if they are in the midst of price jacking
