    Why doesn’t the steamdeck hibernate by default?
  • Yah all good questions and good responses. Suspend is great for this handheld, but as @PlasticExistence@beehaw.org 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.

  • [News] Over 11,000 games now rated Steam Deck Playable
  • 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.

  • hows your balance, need some topup action?

  • Any suggestions which banks are the least shit?
  • 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

  • Brisbane Airport cancels plans for billion-dollar auto mall and motor circuit
  • 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.

    Reminder to Compare Energy Providers, and the AUS GOV website is pretty good
    www.energymadeeasy.gov.au Energy Made Easy

    Energy Made Easy is a free Australian Government energy price comparison service for households and small businesses in NSW, QLD, SA, Tas and the ACT.

    https://www.energymadeeasy.gov.au/ My current provider, like all of them, jacked up my leccy prices in July, but a bit too far for my liking. The Gov comparison site, which I used last time, is still pretty good and you dont need to give your data to private corps lile iselect / meerkat. Hopefully a considerable saving on the new provider, but sill not as cheap as last years prices.

    Welcome to Central Coast Council.

    Central Coast Council

    Posting here as no CCoast yet, maybe I should ask for one.... >As the Central Coast gears up to host Germany and England for their team base training camps during the FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia & New Zealand 2023™,a key sporting facility will be unavailable for public use. From Saturday 1 July until Monday 21 August 2023 the Central Coast Regional Sporting and Recreation Complex (CCRSRC) will be used exclusively by the German Women’s Team for training and rehabilitation purposes. The team will be based locally for the duration of the tournament as they prepare for their Group H games against Morocco (24 July in Melbourne), Columbia (30 July in Sydney) and South Korea (3 August in Brisbane). Team England will also have exclusive use of Central Coast Stadium for training before taking on their Group D opponents Haiti (22 July in Brisbane), Demark (28 July in Sydney), and China (1 August in Adelaide). Due to the requirements of the tournament, public access to the venue will be strictly controlled with enhanced security procedures. The public are also reminded that personal drones will also not be permitted to fly in the airspace of the CCRSRC during training days.
