is that gaming for arcade games or something?  I assume that because it mentions keno, this is clearly a gambling house

Also, happy to see pics of Melbourne. Hopefully the flooding didn't affect too much of the city!

Chewbecca posted:Flooding was largely in the northern and western suburbs of Melbourne, and other areas of Victoria, as well as across New South Wales and Tasmania.  Probably doesn't help that it's the equivalent of spring over there... Chewbecca posted:This street art was in the Melbourne suburb of Fitzroy. Fitzroy is known for amazing markets, shops, coffee and so much street art! Do you still drink coffee? I thought you were more of a tea person. Do they have teahouses there?

Chewbecca posted:Hmmm can't say I know of many tea shops, Melbourne definitely is known for its coffee culture. The brand T2tea is a Melbourne based tea brand for example  I'll have to remember to get coffee or tea if I ever find myself there

Areola Grande posted:what does 56k NO mean It means that if you're using a modem (typically one that gets 56 kilobits per sec, aka 7 kilobytes per second or kbps, then opening this thread is not recommended since it will take a long time for all the pictures to load

Even in modern times, it is useful to tell people with metered connections (where every megabyte costs money) or bandwidth limited connections (3G or satellite) that such threads are data heavy so they should hold off on loading it until they get a better (or cheaper) connection.

I first browsed BBSes on a 2400 baud modem in the early 90s and a megabyte took 20 minutes. I kid you not.

If you told me that this was a photo from the 19th century but AI upscaled and colorized, I would have believed you. Well, I would have believed you until I saw the ads for phantom of the opera and the modern looking cars. It's a classy building and a great shot!

Twenty Four posted:I can't zoom in at all to get a good read, but based on my knowledge, considering the body shape, the placement of the pickups, and the design of the headstock, I am pretty confident that it is either a "Fender Telecaster" or an imitation of one. Two pickup design from what I can see with his hand in the way, with a slanted one at the bridge, straight one at the neck, thinner the usual headstock with an iconic design, the volume, tone, and pickup selector knobs are in the right place with the usual chrome hardware behind them. I would say regular 6 string electric guitar, though I guess someone has to have make a bass that looks like a Telecaster at some point? Thank you!

I'm peering at them with google maps and they have very blurry views of december 2014 and 2009. Looks like it's a great use of that public facing space with all the views it's getting.
