Nine shareholders have today unanimously voted in favour of selling off their regional TV assets to WIN Television, including Nine (NTD-8) Darwin. The competition watchdog ACCC had already approved the deal.

It means for Darwin viewers, there will almost certainly soon be changes coming to Nine Darwin. The arrival of WIN Television into the NT will see the end of the currently Newcastle-produced 9News Darwin mini-bulletins, to likely be replaced with short, generic, WIN News noodle updates. As for a full bulletin, if it were to return, it would have the WIN News branding, and would serve the entire NT, from Darwin to Alice Springs.

Terrestrial transmissions for Network 10's broadcast signals in Griffith (NSW), Mount Gambier and the Riverland + Loxton (SA) will be shut down on 30th June 2026 by WIN Television.

This will be the 2nd set of Network 10 signals owned and operated by an affiliate broadcaster (or half owned by 2 broadcasters as a joint venture) to be shut down since Mildura on 30th June 2024 (2 years ago), when joint-venture station MDT (Mildura Digital Television, Network 10 affiliate) ceased operations after WIN deemed the JV station to be running at a loss since its inception back in 2006.

Network 10 services in Griffith and South East SA will be shut down on 30th June 2026 by monopoly affiliate broadcaster WIN Television in these areas.

Belmont will officially soon be without a bank. The Commonwealth Bank, located at 172 High Street, will be permanently closing at 4pm on 26th June 2026.

Signs went up outside and inside the bank branch very recently, confirming the closure. After 26th June 2026, customers wishing to continue banking with CommBank via a bank branch will need to head to Geelong CBD, Geelong West, Waurn Ponds or Corio as the nearest bank branches. The nearest available option in Belmont for local banking is the local Post Office.

Last year, CommBank committed to keeping regional bank branches open until 31st July 2027. With the closure of the Belmont bank branch it looks like they have just broken that commitment altogether as this closure is in the Geelong area, in which Geelong is classified as Regional.

The last bank branch closure that took effect in Belmont was the NAB at 176 High Street, which permanently closed on 30th March 2023 (now occupied by the Salvos Op Shop), leaving the CommBank as the only bank branch remaining in Belmont. But very soon though, there will be NO bank.

This one e.g. Full movies uploaded to the linked channel. How many normal YouTubers are seemingly having their channels hacked? Reminds me of that whole Wall-E Full Movie thing from 2 or so years ago I must admit.

Hope this doesn't clarify as a low-effort post, otherwise this attempt is doomed...

Hi guys. I'm just wondering did anyone here tune into Christopher Saint Music's live Q&A stream today? https://www.youtube.com/live/2waeqg926v8

If so, did anyone manage to tape and archive it? The stream is now private, and I left a question for the Booth brothers regarding if they'll make their newly announced album (currently on pre-order online) available in brick-and-mortar CD/DVD stores, especially in my country where they still sell them.

I was wanting to know the answer to this (as I was intending on getting the album with the OG 1985 master tape of Ulterior Motives on pristine quality CD in an uncompressed lossless format via my local retailer) and I was unable to make the stream today, but I was hoping if anyone managed to archive it to some extent so I can find out. And yeah I tried to pre-order the album online on the day of the announcement of the OG tape being found but PayPal ended up returning an error message for me so I couldn't even do so.

Thanks very much guys, your help is really appreciated.
