A photo of the subwoofer, it's a glossy black box about 29cm square, with no ornamentation on it at all except for a silver plate in the middle of the top face that says "REL" on it. There are four short silver legs, and it's sitting in a corner next to our TV stand in front of the window.

We have FINALLY upgraded our lounge room stereo system and added a subwoofer! It's a teensy little REL Acoustics Tzero MkIII (sealed box, 6.5" driver) but damn does it add some excellent punch. The bookshelf speakers we have are twenty year-old Wharfedale ones and still sound fantastic, but the HomePod definitely shows them up in terms of bass so I decided to finally do something about it.

A photo of a magpie lark, a medium-sized black and white bird with a pointy yellow beak, walking around in our back lawn.

Unexpected benefit of the 120mm (5x) lens in my new iPhone: I can take better photos of the interesting birds we get bopping around in our backyard!

A photo taken at night looking down a suburban street, there are a bunch of compact two-storey houses most of which have coloured strings of lights hanging down the front.

I love all the Diwali lights all the Indian families have out at this time of year, and then as a bonus they can just keep them on through December and suddenly they're Christmas lights!

A photo of three people sitting around a restaurant table smiling at the camera. There's me, a white man with a short red beard and short brown hair, Kristina, a white woman with short brown hair, and Rebecca, a white woman with long brown hair.

As always Mamak was excellent, and it was lovely to meet @rfernandez in person! (Although I think @rfernandez's choice of dessert was... not excellent. 😅)

A photo of a field with sheep grazing in it, and behind them are two three-storey unit blocks, and beyond that in the distance a bunch of regular suburban houses.

We're off to Parramatta for Mamak with @rfernandez, and it's SUCH a glorious day that we walked to the train station. Nice to see the sheep still around, for the moment at least.

A photo of a game of Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team. The board looks like the metal of the inside of an ancient steampunk starship, and the terrain is a bunch of walls all connected together in the same steampunk style to form number of interconnecting rooms. At the bottom left closest to the camera are my six converted all-women Space Marines clad in deep red armour, at the far right are the very ancient Egyptian-looking space marines of the Warp Coven, and pretty much not visible at the top behind the walls are six Night Lords Chaos Space Marines, in fairly bright blue armour and with small red bat-looking wings as decorations in various places.

We had our first game of the new edition of Kill Team last night! Only got through two rounds, and we played without equipment—apart from barricades, just to match it from the last edition—but I'm _really_ liking how streamlined the rules are, the new rules for line of sight and cover are SO much clearer now. In terms of actually scoring anything it was a miserable failure on my part, I didn't get anything at all but that was mostly my fault for fucking up my deployment (and I now have a whole new set of chapter tactics I need to remember as well), but that's fine, this was just a "Get used to the rules" game anyway. I _am_ disappointed at how much of a nerf plasma has had though... even when supercharged, my Assault Intercessor's plasma pistol is only 4/5 damage, Piercing 1. Side note, the Nemesis Claw "You're obscured if you're within one inch of heavy terrain" rule is SO IRRITATING. 😛 At least they _can_ be shot at now, but obscuring still means that you're very unlikely to deal any damage unless you roll really well AND the Nemesis Claw player rolls really poorly.

A photo of Space Marines, three Assault Intercessors and three standard Intercessors, all of them have a metal-looking nameplate attached to the front of their bases with a gothic-looking font for their names: Sister Miraïs, Sister Lucena, Sister Sarine, Sister Genevane, Sister Arabeth, and Sister Dominea.

They're all wearing standard massive Space Marine armour with big shoulder pads painted in a deep rich red, the Assault Intercessors all look like they're mid-stride and are wielding got pistols and chainswords, and one has a grenade in her hand and looks like she's about to lob it. The other three are holding big boltguns, two look like they're in the middle of firing and the third had hers held upright in one hand while she points commandingly with the other. None of them have helmets and they've all got either mohawks or very short cropped hair and various cybernetic implants. Their guns and chainswords are all black and they've got various brown leather pouches attached to their waists. The bases are done up to look like battlefield mud, it's all dark brown and wet-looking and splattered part-way up their shins, and there's some swampy-looking grasses and green goopy swamp water on the bases too.

It's taken like six months but I finally attached the nameplates to my Intercession squad! ...though I guess now with the release of KT24 it's my "Angels of Death" squad now. 😛
