WGMG?
I used to hate Sydney FC for all the furious masturbation the press and commentators would do over them, now it seems its just all about Victory..
Headlines like this: "The 2015-2016 Hyundai A-League season will kick off on Thursday 8 October with defending champion Melbourne Victory commencing its campaign a night later in a blockbuster encounter at Adelaide Oval"
Oh, need to read the fine print to see who is actually playing in the opening game though..
The MyGov Website. Absolute pile of shit. I keep getting 401 - Unauthorised Access when I try and log in.
be ****ed if I'm paying an accountant to do my taxes.
Anyone else had issues with this steaming pile of shit MyGov site ?
Had problems with the ****s sending a text message with a password every time you want to log inQuote:

Got barred for 24 hours
Not have time for another week or so and the problem was the letter counts.
Dumb ****ing system to access but once you access works well
Government websites are a disgrace, having worked from within the horror stories are numerous.
The best I know of - the ABR crashed for 4 days a few years back, why did it take that long to fix? They had to wait for the programmer to fly out from Hong Kong !
Many government staff are still on Windows XP and IE6......the Centrelink system is still based on the same mainframe system that was built in 1983 !
They just won't spend the money.
Those people in Kotara waving those signs for the Halloween and Christmas store
Oh, and Halloween
They started already??Quote:

Shitty day.
Track work so had to get the bus tu Sydney.
Bus gets a flat, stranded on central coast for thirty minutes.
Now, flight delayed. If we don't board soon, might get cancelled entirely as I think there's a no fly curfew after 11pm or something.
Grim gets stuck in central coast..Quote:

How ****ing hard is it when making a sandwich at Subway that after asking what I want that they actually listen to my reply and take note of it so they don't have to ask me 4 times if I want this when I have already told them what I wanted???
Not rocket science.
Pay attention it isn't that hard
Come on man, how many orders must they take every day? It's best they be doubly/triply sure they don't put something on your sandwich that you don't want.Quote:

Apple iOs.
Forced my wife's phone to upgrade because it said it was deleting apps to force the installation. Made them so slow (4S).
Has anyone made the change from Apple to Samsung? What are your thoughts?
Android is millions of times better than Apple
Apple force you to do everything in their stupid way, which is supposed to improve 'user experience' but basically just makes it so you can't do what you want and have to pay for it
I can see this discussion starting it's own new, nerdy, vitriolic thread
Might move it before it startsQuote:

WGMG, NCC sacking a GM costing $1,000,000 after he got a performance review that said he was meeting and exceeding some expectations :banghead:
Convincing people that Apple is better than Samsung is like convoncing people Troy Hearfield is a more prolific goal scorer than Lionel Messi.Quote:

i made the switch to an android phone about 3 years ago from an iphone to a galaxy s3 to an s5 (which i promptly lost a week after i got), then ended up with a motorola moto G
can easily say the motorola is the best of the bunch and a third of the price. native android (no shitty skins and bloatware like the samsungs), drag and drop efficiency, and can run SD cards to bump up the storage. rips it, won't change from the moto series
if you want to go outside of the walled garden, android is yer mate. some people don't like it though and are perfectly happy with the iphone (i.e. my parents, thank god it just works most of the time hahaha)
that being said - i'm a convert to a macbook pro for work (quad-core i7, 16gb ram with an SSD), the thing is bulletproof and shits on any other laptop i've used from a great height. space, heat and performance wise it outstrips anything else on the market, and the build quality is impeccable. if i need to run windows software i use an oracle virtualbox to run windows 10 in parallel.
50/50 fanboy signing out
As a musician it pains me to say this but Macs piss all over the competition when it comes to DAW's. The reason is that Macs are electrically superior when it comes to grounding and that means no humming / digital noise when you record - the competition [if you can call it that] leave you with far too many clicks and pops.Quote:

Nelmes and the rest know that ain't gonna fly politically so want someone who isn't as keen.
Then there was the unprecedented decision by Nelmes to approve her own expenses. Ken was not cool with that.
So you can't give your mates a few grand in a paper bag yet you can sign off on anything you need from the ratepayers cash.
Seems fair.
McCloy back IN.
I also recently switched to a MacBook Pro.
It is very good.

Cool. Which DAW are you running ?:lol:Quote:
