In about the same amount of time it takes to open an app i can have the word straight from the horses mouth.
But that's why I use Pocket Weather. It uses BOM data.
Also, it's more comprehensive than the BOM's usual forecast pages. It has graphs of how the temperature is forecast to change hour by hour, along with more details on rain and wind predictions. Plus easy access to the weather radar!

After a pretty shitty year and an absolutely horrid last couple of months I finally have a little bit of sunshine.
Her name is Doris.
... or Dorothy or Deloris. I'm not sure yet.
I picked her up on Thursday night. Her last owner was a little neglegent and she has some minor bumps and bruises and for her trouble she's been locked in a garage for a year or so. Nothing I can't fix.
DL'd the service manual yesterday morning and a few minor adjustments and she was good to go in the arvo.
Hillarys and back from Rocko took more of a toll on me than her. Blew the cobwebs out of both of us.

FYI, per @PA Jamie Twitch will be streaming the Main Theater this year, which is cool because there's no chance in hell I'll get to Australia anytime soon.
I'm from Sydney and I've never been to melbourne so I'll be pretty clueless. Also I'm neck deep in exams and essays for the next two weeks, so forgive me in advance if I'm tired or groggy

Is not paying for trams still the done thing in Melbourne or have they clamped down on that?

It's still pretty much the done thing as long as you're not getting off at a major stop in the cbd.
The inspectors almost never board the trams, they just wait until you get off and then check your Myki
Myki. I'm still amazed at how many people in Melbourne don't like the card system. I get that Myki was a complete and total fuck up on several levels, but having a card system is amazing. You don't have to stand there for 5 minutes getting on a bus while half the people buy a ticket.
Sydney's beepy-cards finally cover the buses I catch. All they need to do now is get the light rail on it and I'll be able to use all four PT options with one card.
myki is actually get a minor improvement in terms of ease of access to cards (you'll be able to get seniors, child or concession cards from machines finally, plus the cards will look flashier), but that's only rolling out next month. There are still some fairly glaring flaws with it (e.g. you can pay a ticket fine on a tram, but you can't buy a myki or top one up on a tram). I do have a soft spot for myki, though.
Edit: I wish we had something more like KL's system, though, where they actually have single use tickets. But they're little round plastic tokens instead of cards! And when you're done with it, you drop it into a slot in the ticket barriers and the token gets reused.
I tried looking back through the thread but I'm being lazy or dumb this morning. What time is everyone showing up for Hofbrauhaus?
The booking's for 7.15.

When I first caught the train in Sydney from the airport on rang Ross and told him I couldn't work the ticketing machine because it told me I had to pay 14 dollars for the ticket and I was convinced i made an error.

Yeah that shit is super expensive.
On a related note, I think Perth's Smart Rider cards for public transport are pretty great. It's probably a head fuck for anyone on holiday though

Also, libraries are for wimps. Assembler ftw.

Doesn't help with summer though.
Keep getting too many Watts all bouncing around my esky of a room.
Given how poorly my Matlab code was working today, I won't have to worry about weather this weekend.

I was not paid for this advertisement.
Sydney is pretty alright!

Nice ride, mate!

GG if you wanted to get public transport anywhere this morning.
Or drive anywhere for that matter.
I got to the MCEC!
I haven't even done my hair!
It's Melbourne, it won't be that warm.
Are certain theaters going to be streamed on twitch like Prime and East?
Please shoot me a PM if you add me so I know to add you back.
I believe it's been stated that the main theatre will be streamed.

Tiny scratch or crease on the magnetic strip of your monthly ticket and you were fucked.
Only taken them 10 years or so.

Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better
