Best place to buy gaming laptops in Australia?

I'm aware that laptops will always be inferior to gaming PCs in terms of performance, but I personally prioritize portability and convenience over anything else.
I've bought a Metabox N850HJ when it was at its very cheapest, but it has been falling apart faster than I predicted, and convenienttly (for the company Metabox) just out of the warranty's range.
I've tried Gumtree and whatnot, buts its kinda shoddy over there. Perhaps I should fine a cheaper model overseas and ship to Australia?

Any suggestions would be grand. My budget is around $1000, but i can stretch to $1200. I need something better than a GTX 1050, don't care whether its Ryzen or Nvidia - it just needs to be better.

Noticed Milo tastes different?

If you noticed that Milo tastes rather bland and somewhat different recently, you are not imagining it. My GF thought it was a bad batch initially, as she drinks this stuff often. But turns out Milo decided to tamper with the malt barley and rice ingredients, and bump it up by 3 %.

Milo ingredients before change, uses 35 % extract: https://i.imgur.com/lBRVByr.jpg

Milo ingredients after change, uses 38 % extract: https://i.imgur.com/9p8XTve.jpg

Why progressively ruin a product, just for the extra $? Not happy, Jan!

Australia in the 1800s

Hi all,

We've put together a curated collection of 200 images of Queensland life specifically in the 1800s. Certainly there are some outfits here that would have been hot in QLD summer!

What do you think of the new style ANZ banks?

In my town, ANZ was in the same old(cool) building for something like 50 years. They recently moved and I went in there and instantly it gave me a bad vibe for some reason. The tellers stand out the front with a computer and the cash comes out of a draw in the wall. All really futuristic and strange. Maybe I’m old. Back in my day we’d tie an onion to our belt before going to the bank. Are other banks like this now?

I’ve logged into my tax account and it states - “No tax returns are due at this time. Contact usOpens in a new window if a tax return needs to be lodged.” I haven’t submitted a tax return yet and I only moved to Australia in February.
