AdrianW replied to bashar20 on [Refurb] Dell S3422DW 34" WQHD 3440x1440 100Hz Curved Monitor $309 Delivered @ Dell Outlet
If they're productivity apps can't you just run them in a window? And if they're games try looking for widescreen patches.
Thanks. Bought one. Now, just need to build a new PC to go around this storage drive.

But surely churchgoers will already have their own bible. I really hope they're not collecting more to inflict upon others.

Can someone explain all the upvotes? Is this some kind of in-joke that I'm just not getting?
AdrianW commented on Glad Wavetop Tidy Bags, Medium 72 Count $4.03 ($3.63 S&S) + Delivery ($0 Prime/ $59 Spend) @ Amazon AU
"Wavetop" is such a non-feature. It's basically "we're too cheap to give you proper handles - so have no handles and we'll give it a fancy…
AdrianW commented on What Email Platform Are You Using?
I've used Gmail since it was in beta (possibly the longest beta of any product ever). But I use Outlook as a client on both my PC and phone.
AdrianW replied to DingoMan29 on Glad Wavetop Tidy Bags, Medium 72 Count $4.03 ($3.63 S&S) + Delivery ($0 Prime/ $59 Spend) @ Amazon AU
I agree - the Coles ones are cheaper and have actual handles instead of the stupid "wave" thing on these.
AdrianW replied to Rydog95 on Logitech MX Keys S Keyboard & MX Master 3S Wireless Mouse $239.90 Delivered @ Amazon AU / + Delivery @ Officeworks / JB Hi-Fi
Well built until a key comes loose.
Anyone with an "S" version who previously had the OG model? ALL my OG models had a backlight issue where the backlight comes on and goes…
AdrianW replied to Geekomatic on Proactive Action - Xiaomi (& Other Chinese Brands / Import) Phone Owners Affected by 3G Shutdown (Now Due to Be Network Blocked)
I agree 100%. They should have just allowed the phones to continue to be used, they'd have gotten replaced naturally over the next few…
AdrianW replied to chrisie on Proactive Action - Xiaomi (& Other Chinese Brands / Import) Phone Owners Affected by 3G Shutdown (Now Due to Be Network Blocked)
I guess so. But does it really matter? They're an Aussie company trading in Australia so they have to follow ACCC rules. The grey market is…
AdrianW replied to Iggemo on Proactive Action - Xiaomi (& Other Chinese Brands / Import) Phone Owners Affected by 3G Shutdown (Now Due to Be Network Blocked)
Got it from Kogan (not a third-party seller). Price was better than Xiaomitech and Xiaomitech don't make it clear which model you're…
AdrianW replied to Iggemo on Proactive Action - Xiaomi (& Other Chinese Brands / Import) Phone Owners Affected by 3G Shutdown (Now Due to Be Network Blocked)
I bought an F6 and I've had it a bit over a week now. It connected to Optus with no issues (after my F3 got blocked). It's TAC validates OK…
AdrianW replied to Duff5000 on Proactive Action - Xiaomi (& Other Chinese Brands / Import) Phone Owners Affected by 3G Shutdown (Now Due to Be Network Blocked)
My F3 got blocked this morning.
AdrianW replied to 88mph on Proactive Action - Xiaomi (& Other Chinese Brands / Import) Phone Owners Affected by 3G Shutdown (Now Due to Be Network Blocked)
Try sticking in any random 8 digits - it will almost certainly pass. Someone else mentioned that it looks up the number on a blacklist, so…
AdrianW replied to zachhambo on Proactive Action - Xiaomi (& Other Chinese Brands / Import) Phone Owners Affected by 3G Shutdown (Now Due to Be Network Blocked)
Just enter any random 8 digits into that page and you'll nearly always get a pass. e.g. 12345678 87654321 11111111 55555555
AdrianW replied to Iggemo on Proactive Action - Xiaomi (& Other Chinese Brands / Import) Phone Owners Affected by 3G Shutdown (Now Due to Be Network Blocked)
No. It's because the stupid government is forcing them to block phones they *think* can't contact E000.
Government overreach strikes again. I really don't care if my phone can connect to emergency services or not.

Not that small but Pixel A series (like 8A) are small. Or there's [this tiny…
AdrianW replied to zachhambo on Motorola Edge 50 Neo (256GB/12GB) $619.20 (+ $100 MasterCard by Redemption) Delivered @ Mobileciti
On an Aussie bought Neo? That's good to know.
I refuse to believe than my 4G VoLTE capable phone will stop working until it actually stops working.
But, according to Optus my phone (which has 4G VoLTE and 5G) will stop working next week and I need to get a new device to stay connected.…

I was also looking at this phone. But another negative is that it doesn't do any of the Apt-X bluetooth codec (as far as I can tell).
AdrianW commented on [Prime] DEWALT Right Angle Drill Adaptor, FlexTorq, Straight Flexible Shaft (DWAMRASETFT) $41.05 Delivered @ Amazon US via AU
I bought one of these to use with my DeWalt power drill. But according to the packaging it's "To be used with impact driver only". Anyone…
But this thread voted Pixel 8 best in the $500-$800 range. Seems incorrect if it's actually $1000. I'm not actually looking at a Pixel 8…
AdrianW commented on Is It Time to Give up on Australia?
Good luck with your health if you're a woman in Texas.
AdrianW commented on Best High End Smartphone ($500 ⇆ $800) in 2024
OK, where can I get a Pixel 8 for less than $800? As far as I can tell they're well over 1K.
AdrianW commented on Microsoft 365 Family - 1 Year Subscription (Digital Code) $99 Delivered @ Bing Lee
Thanks for this. And just before I ordered I remembered I had an outstanding Prezzee gift card so I swapped it for a Bing Lee card.
AdrianW commented on TP-Link LiteWave Gigabit Switch 5-Port $15 (2 for $27), 8-Port $23 (2 for $41.40) + Delivery ($0 Prime/$59 Spend) @ Amazon AU
2Gbps NBN apparently coming next year, so we'll need 2.5GbE switches.

I'm still running a 1080 Ti and checking comparison sites, a 3060 would be a downgrade. I need to go at least 40 series for it to be even…
