People in the US didn't get the update, so I'm assuming it was localised to AU. Probably google wallet, 4G and the like.
Should have probably mentioned this earlier, if you use whatsapp regularly, it is currently incompatible with ART, so it will randomly keep on crashing.

I dont. Installed it a few weeks back and they were saying I'd have to pay for it coz I'd had it previously or something. So I just deleted it. So no issues there!

Top 10 AusGaffers who don't have a life.
Rep you need help.
It starts at 4:00am Eastern Standard time on Wednesday here in Australia. I think...
I just put Knack, Killzone, FIFA 14, NBA2K14, Ass Creed 4, Madden 25, Need for Speed: Rivals, COD: Ghosts and Battlefield 4 in my cart on Amazon and when I go to checkout it tells me Killzone and Knack can't ship here, but all the other games can be shipped to Australia.
I will try my luck with the 2 for 1 deal anyway.
I purchased Knack and Killzone from Tronixweb.com based in the US, whom I've been using for over 10 years now. $16 Fed Ex shipping to Australia and I often get my orders within 3 days. Great service for anyone who imports.

/me is exhausted from Supanova.
That's the busiest I've ever been working an Artist's Alley table. The last time I was that busy, I was in a dealers booth selling Death Note trading figures by the caseload.

I can possibly get a PS4 game for an AusGaffer because I don't have a 5th game on my list.
Is anyone interested? No promises because it depends on my friend in LA, but you can get any PS4 game for under $60 delivered. Let me know by tomorrow please.
Kritz??

PS4 plus two games and a controller for roughly the same as it costs here. Amazing
I don't even know why I wanted an extra controller. 99% of the time I play solo. Might just use it on the PC

I tried mine few days ago, analogs didn't seem to work on L4D2.
Others have reported it's working for them, probably needs drivers to work correctly for most games.

So Wii FitU took 3 hours to download.
Now waiting for it to install, should take about half an hour.....
Woo!

Woo, back online, sort of. Using a new phone sim and hoping for the best with the connection. Adam internet fucked the transfer request, then the exchange fucked the port forwarding or something, maybe fixed this week. :/ Also, fired. YAY! Unemployment rocks. Right? Guys?
Also a quick question, I need a wireless adapter for the PC, does it matter what one I get and is PCIe better than a USB thingie?
Pages and pages to catch up on, but this is a glorious pair of posts. You are both wankers of the highest order.

Unemployed? More like Funemployed! Appreciate the free time, I would love some right about now.
You want PCIe Wireless, I hate messing around with USB dongles.
Thanks. Done with social work for a while I think, I'll be checking out how much work is needed to get my security license again and go back to looking stern for money I think, more relaxing than the last 4 months of bullshit has been.
No payout, bullshit from a manager and exec manager who lied to the ceo. Fuck em. Thanks though.Damn, that sucks dude. Hope you at least got a payout
Hah! Free time is nice. Cheers for the tip too.

Abbotts Australia - fuck social services, lets all get drunk and fight instead
I mean he is creating this society of fuck being nice, lets be selfish and drink to excess and kill each other
Also no chance you can hit up EEO to fuck them around? Or were you employed directly through public services (not that I'm saying public services are corrupt den of lies and illegal wrongdoing, to anyone who may be tracking what I say online in regards to my job!!!) and have no chance of getting anywhere with a claim?
That copper racial profiling thread in Britain in the OT is freaky-deaky. Can't wait until Abbott steals it for here!
It is also like six months old, but whatever.

Boo DM Glad you have internet, but fuck having no job. You should ditch Sadelaide and come to Melbourne, Home of TISM.
PS. Has anyone started a thread about how racist the entire US is because of the thing that happened with that NFL player? Because we all know the population of Australia was tarred with the same racist brush when Adam Goodes was called an "ape".

Oh, this is what I came to share, then I got caught up replying to rep. Not complaining
Found this when catching up on my G+ feed. It's from Metatopia , which is a RPG game design festival/convention.

I think it's a great example of how inclusive the community is and the effort they'll put in to be more-so. There's something for everyone in the roleplaying arena and I love that the message is quite strong. The more I read, see and hear, the more it's visible that the message is "If you like RPGs, that's all that matters to us. Come and have a good time, we'll do our best to ensure you do".
I've always thought 'tolerance' is bullshit. Tolerating is one thing and I perceive it as a negative. Acceptance is what should be encouraged and something to strive for. No one is pleased to say others 'tolerate' them. To be accepted is what most of us want, need and deserve.[/QUOTE]
Yes, it's an old post, but fuck it, I like the contents, so I'm quoting it to say so.
[quote="lexi, post: 89388346"]Does you losing your job have anything to do with the new government?[/QUOTE]
Nah, just shitheads and workplace politics. Clients complained, no adverse finding, but not safe to return to work so the managers et al decided I had to lose my job to save their budget I think. Just a fucking failure of management all the way. Mediocrity can be a powerful tool, apparently.

Speaking of imports...is there a way to import PS4 camera and controller that would actually save me money?

It is mandatory that everyone that picked up a Wii U recently purchases this.

Mine downloaded in 30 minutes on launch day. Guess I got lucky? Oo;
2012 was the first time I'd done Artist's Alley, so I'm not sure if this year was just a fluke due to something like the fact that so many people apparently didn't realize the vendors had their own separate area; or if it was actually closer to normal and it was just that 2012 BrisNova was depressed due to the constant downpour. The convention centre will certainly be interesting.
Will you be at Coast Nova?

Sad to hear about your job DM, employer sounds like a jerk.
Guys, a word of caution. Avoid using the site http://www.ratestogo.com/, I had recently used it to book accommodation in Cairns and got a call from my bank this morning advising that my card had been compromised.
This is the only site where I had used my card directly (normally use paypal), and all the fraudulent transactions were made for booking hotels in the US, so I'm certain it was this site which led to this hack.

Well, apart from amazon, this is the only site I have used in the past months. Just my luck I guess.

It's certainly a possibility, or someone anywhere along the chain from you to Rates to Go to the hotel could've done something dodgy. It may also be one of the Amazon partners (if you bought from someone who sells through Amazon). It does seem coincidental though.Well, apart from amazon, this is the only site I have used in the past months. Just my luck I guess.

Nope, only amazon directly. Never a partner.
Sucks real hard for me cause now I have to change my payment details with amazon, and they were going to charge my card for the ps4 pre-order this week.
