Also, always great to see Aussies playing in big games and big leagues, because it bodes well for our national team.

Missing: sydbot (aussie.zone)

submitted 2 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Police are searching for a missing bot known as sydbot. It was last seen on 17 February 2025 in the Sydney community.

Members had expected weekly discussion threads for the past two weeks, but sydbot did not show at the expected times. The Sydney community hold grave fears for its safety.

sydbot is not considered dangerous, and if you see sydbot, please give him a boot so he resets and goes back to normal and can create weekly discussion threads.

It's hysterical that I can't watch the main cricket channel on 7plus. I just get the red circle going round and round.

But if I switch to the Hindi channel, it's perfect.

Needless to say, with India at 6/73, the Hindi commentators are a little subdued, but still make more sense than Ponting and co.

The main attractor to me is that with an electric car, you could theoretically be energy independent. Same goes with an ebike.

Eg, Solar -> battery -> EV/ebike

No need to be relying on rotten dinosaurs dug up out of wherever, with a million middle men and taxes.

Penrith or Melbourne? (aussie.zone)

So, who are you supporting for the Grand Final?

I can't make my mind up.

I don't want Penrith to win again. I hate dynasties, and I think it's better for the game when teams rise and fall. It's one of the benefits of a salary cap.

But I don't like Melbourne, because of their historical rorting of the salary cap, ruining multiple seasons of the NRL. And the whole introduction of wrestling manoeuvres into footy. A lot of their game seems to be based on cheating or exploiting weaknesses in rukes rather than playing in the spirit of the game.

Or do I just barrack for the referee, touchies and video reviewers?

Thank God resources have been allocated for a strike force! One poor victim got the paint off with WD40, but the trauma will last forever!

They'll never make any laws that will impose additional requirements or possibly impact property prices negatively.
