  • Have had this issue myself asking with other DD card related issues.

    I can’t understand why the pi foundation persist with using SD as the only physically practical storage option.

    They’re looking post the point of needing a way to snap on reliable EMMC storage, as a default, in a way that doesn’t leave a cable or something permanently plugged into a USB port.

    Sure, USB is a fine option, but I hate that it’s only an option and not a designed default.

    Most of us only need 8GB or so for the OS, 8GB or good quality durable EMMC should hardly cost anything.

    Other tiny computers and even economy notebooks and Chromebooks already use this.








  • Very rarely do I have a positive view on posts in this com, but this is a rare exception.

    No mindless, pointless, circle jerk hating, but rather a positive and legitimate wish and view toward an alternative.

    People can hate on cars so they want, but since people and places end up making cars nesecary.

    Earlier this year I needed to go Melbourne to Albury, usually a trip done in a car, but this time I had use of a car at the other end so I took the train. Was a fantastic trip. Access to a small food bar, toilets, the occasional stop at more significant towns.

    Trains kick ass.

    I’d love to see a better in town solution for transport, buses and whatever both in Albury and my home town aren’t really up to scratch yet.





  • You just described ARMA3 with some mods.

    I remember being tossed in the deep end when the mods were new to me. Having to diagnose and treat gunshot wounds, inject morphine, run fluids etc… even CPR, certain medics could do transfusions, match blood types etc.

    Was kinda frightening for a PC game… And often all of this was under enemy fire.

    The enemy would be injured, shot, concussed, knocked unconscious, lose blood etc. the potential existed for them to regain consciousness after a while and if you hadn’t removed their weapons they could fire in you. Surprised the shit out of people not used to these mods… Always had to check downed hostiles.



  • raiding it’s territory and kills and kidnaps a number of it’s citizen.

    As Israel has done to Palistinians already for years?

    But that just gets swept under the carpet when Israel does it.

    Israels actions standing over the Palestine should have had them classed as terrorists long ago.

    Hamas is no better though, leaving 2 terrorist organisations fighting while innocents suffer.
