Broccoli is pretty much the best vegetable. I think there's some love for it left over from my childhood days of pretending I was a giant eating trees.

Who will be the Atari of tomorrow?

Apple?

A man can dream.

Having recently purchased my first Iphone, I can say that while it has many more apps that I like to use, any dealings I've had with apple staff have been pretty bad. Everyone was snooty and no one was helpful, except for one adorable genius girl who looked just like Kaylee from firefly.

Markot is dead, long live Markot.

aww man what! RIP in peace I will miss the hitler and simpsons references.

$1 sushi train for days eyyyyyy

;.; aaaah I miss $1 sushi so much. So many raw fish options, so little food poisoning. Have you been to that place where you play a little gatchapon game when you finish your plate? I think it might be sushiro?

 

[Jintor]

perma dead markot? :T

i liked that argumentative little chevy chase

 

[Deeku]

what

if it's perma, that would really suck! i like markot!

he was kinda the only life left here post choc-era ausgaf

 

[ClivePwned]

Carindale Apple store? That the only one I ever had a bad experience in. Also, that probably was Kaylee from Firefly.

Yup, negative religious talk is a no go here, he really should have been smarter about it.

 

[Kritz]

Markot is dead, long live Markot.

who do I address the cheque to?

I don't like Sushi personally but there's usually other stuff they sell there. Maybe.

to be honest I could prob just go for some generic rice + beef over what I imagine sushi is

 

[ClivePwned]

Markot is dead, long live Markot.

lemme just tell you how much I like broccoli.

 

[reptilescorpio]

Bloodborne will be $69 at Target too chaps

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Target too? Where else is it $69?

 

[farmerboy]

welcome!

what do you do for a job?

Thanks for the welcome and yes I'm a vegetable farmer. We grow lettuce, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli and broccolini on about 150 acres near Melbourne.

^$70 bucks for Bloodborne is a no brainer.

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

I'm waiting for the PC port

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

[farmerboy]

Me too

I planted my Broccolini, Broccoli and Brussel Sprouts yesterday.

Cross post from PCgaf, maybe you guys can help me

I'm in the market for a new monitor, I was doubting whether or not to get a ROG Swift, but in the end the TN panel made me decide not to get one.

Preferably I'd like the following:
-1440p (I'd consider 4k, but only have a 970 and don't know what 1080/1440p looks like on -a 4k monitor)
-IPS
-60hz
-Lowish latency - I'm not to sure what's considered acceptable latency wise, I don't play games competitively apart from the occasional game of CS
-Cheaper than the ROG would be a massive bonus as well

 

[farmerboy]

I've got kids to feed man, how am I supposed to do that now?

"Kids, start sifting through the neighbours rubbish tins again, some bloke over here is growing his own food again and put Dad out of a job."

Spoiler

 

[Shaneus]

So Bloodborne is the next big thing? I literally have no idea what it's about or who it's by or anything. Should I care?

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

It's the new Dark Souls. GAF loves these games for some reason. IMO they should get gud at proper games like EU/CK/HoI.

 

[senahorse]

Forget bloodborne, pillars of eternity is out this week.

 

[MoonGred]

If you like dark souls you'll probably enjoy this. If you hated the previous you probably shouldn't bother.

Personally I found the first 3 to get a bit repetitive after a few hours, but there's something to be said about playing a souls game for the first time.

Forget bloodborne, pillars of eternity is out this week.

Fk I completely forgot about this, even backed it as well. There haven't been any surveys asking about how you want your digital download right?

 

[BananaArnie]

aww why'd you have to go and ban the guy.

 

[senahorse]

Fk I completely forgot about this, even backed it as well. There haven't been any surveys asking about how you want your digital download right?

I believe we will be given the choice tomorrow or Tuesday

 

[Deeku]

yeap bloodborne hyyyyype!

i'm gona try and play through this blind for a change. previous souls games have been play a couple hours, get sidetracked by other stuff, then come back like a year later and wiki the shit out of it.

 

[hidys]

Forget bloodborne, pillars of eternity is out this week.

When do they give out the keys for backers?

 

[MoonGred]

When do they give out the keys for backers?

I'd say a day before release

 

[Quasar]

I'd say a day before release

Glad that easter break is coming up.

 

[Poimandres]

I'm beyond hyped for Bloodborne. Too bad it's Brewsvegas in Brisbane so I'll be out drinking beers instead of playing/first world problems.

 

[ClivePwned]

I'm waiting for something other than Bloodborne TBH

But enjoy it.

I don't know how legit these are but if you're curious about netflix's catalog

http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2015/03/netflix-australian-leak-pricing-and-content-library-revealed/

 

[reptilescorpio]

Target too? Where else is it $69?

Was $70 preorder at Dick Smith. Target is cheaper though!

I'm waiting for the PC port

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Damn it Mutes that's not fair >_<

It's the new Dark Souls. GAF loves these games for some reason. IMO they should get gud at proper games like EU/CK/HoI.

Main draw of Bloodborne is it's basically a proper reset of that game in a new style to be played in a different way by the original creator of the Souls series. I'll give it a miss at the moment but it's very intriguing how they haven't played it safe, they went out of their way to reinvent what they established originally.

Some interesting things in there, like Winter Soldier, which is yet to appear on the US service.

The apparent lack of Trek is also curious.

 

[endlessflood]

Bloodborne will be $69 at Target too chaps

Is that in a catalogue? I've been looking but can't find it. At that price I'm definitely tempted.

Yup new catalogue, the staff usually upload to OzBargain as soon as they get their hands on it

The jank is by design, as is the gloriously low frame rate.

Four-stream 4K UHD ‘Family’ plan for $14.99/month.

Hmmm that doesn't seem like very many TV Shows tbh.

(Will still probably sign up to this over Stan tbh. Do want Star Trek on netflix though)

 

[EatChildren]

EatChildren, Are you doing low carb?

Yep, been giving it a crack for awhile now and with the exception of the odd cheat day every two to three weeks I'm doing really well. Avoiding sweet and baked goods is the biggest cunt, especially since I love that stuff, but working out how to create super tasty shit that's low in carbs is a fun challenge. Like that meal I posted wouldn't have had much in it, maybe 15g at most (likely less).

Meanwhile tonight I had a breakfast dinner; spicy omelette wrapped around bacon and spinach, dried chilli and parmasen cheese on top.

Again, fuck all carbs and tasted great.

 

[MoonGred]

Nothing worse than 25° at 5am in the morning.

The pricing seems fair but the TV shows are lacking. Movies seem on par with Stan though.

I see House of Cards, Arrow, Doctor Who and afew other shows Stan doesn't have. No Community, Star Trek and Underbelly is disappointing.

Unfortunately i won't go back to Stan as it simply doesn't work alot of the time and isn't available on any TV boxes or consoles. I refuse to sit at my computer and watch shows and movies.

Stan has new who, and a house of cards (the original)

Best of all world's tbh. And as you said, star trek!

 

[Fredescu]

Cheapest Mario Party 10 with doll? EzyDVD have it for $60.88 and Blockbuster for $60.06. Thinking of splurging and paying the extra 72c for EzyDVD because BB have a shitty rep and CD Wow have never* let me down.

 

[Quasar]

I wonder what local penetration of Chromecast and AppleTV is. I know they are easiest and cheapest to get running. Thats where the local Anime service Animelab has started too.I guess those two tv devics along with phones and tablets makes up enough.

 

[MoonGred]

If ozbargain is anything to go buy I'd say that chromecast would have a fairly good markets are,the price is pretty appealing especially when it's on sale.
As for Apple TV I'm not too sure, but doesn't everything with an apple logo sell gangbusters?

 

[reptilescorpio]

The jank is by design, as is the gloriously low frame rate.

Certainly seems to be a Euro thing

*shudders at thought of trying to run TW3 on current rig*

 

[trinest]

Lets put it this way I've seen more people with Apple TVs then Chromecasts.

I've been getting into omelettes massively recently. So goddamned easy to make and super delicious. Never thought of using one as the basis for a wrap though! Could use that for a delicious chicken, bacon and mayo wrap. Hell, even make one cold and bring it to work, it'd be amazing.

Hard to see a chromecast though, it being plugged in the back of a TV. Jokes aside you probably right

 

[Stackboy]

Be careful, if you can murder female monsters in Bloodbourne it won't be on the shelfs at Target for very long.

http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2015/03/netflix-australian-leak-pricing-and-content-library-revealed/

Guess I'll be getting the HD stream. VPNs ahoy!!

 

[reptilescorpio]

Make sure to get in quick on Bloodborne then lol.

I'm hyped as fuck for it after checking out a few streams and the spoiler thread. Sounds fucking amazing. Shame I don't have time/money for it

$69 at Big W & Target pretty sure.
