I’m with Aussie too and don’t seem to have any of these options, but I’m on FTTB and the max speed I can pay for is 100/40. Can I ask what your connection type is?

Silksong is out today - and I am so excited to share my deep-dive into the game's development.
I spoke with Team Cherry about Silksong's design, its origins, and the creative principles that drive their work. I'm thrilled to share it:

18,000. That's the low and conservative estimate for the amount of children Israel has violently massacred in the past 600 days. That's a kindergarten class of 30 every single day.

Speaking of, Israel literally bombed a kindergarten yesterday. I'm not sharing the video, but it is horrifying.

May these words stick to Israel's already blood-soaked history for generations into the far, far future. May our children, and their children, know the term "never again" to include this evil. May those who allowed this to happen feel eternal shame.

A reminder to my AUS friends.

- preferential voting means you can vote 1 Greens or Vic Soc and vote ALP 2 (or 3)
- Dutton isn’t for you
- The seats going to be close so your votes DO count e.g in Cooper if 1 in 12 votes changed to Greens, Tara will get in.

Talk to your friends & family.

Yeah, I’m wondering if it’s worth it but it sounds like someone has seen them posting strange ads, so I think there’s something afoot

Alexander Perrin @alexanderperrin.bsky.social · Apr 17

I’m not sure who or why someone put together an X Short Trip page, but with the blue tick alone it’s probably worth flagging that it’s not me! What a bizarre place.

Yeaaah they're cool but just a little too 'livin in the future' for me. I'm an old soul who just wants a sturdy little thing with a button

Find me a simple metal fan that isn’t a high velocity tornado machine and I’ll be forever in your debt
