If you have the space and can live without HDMI ARC, then the active speakers range from Edifier are better than any sound bar.

Since Aliexpress is a marketplace, it depends somewhat on the store that you buy it from. I am typing this reply from the PC powered by the…

At 1W power, you'll need to hang these speakers around your neck to fully utilize that Dolby Atmos.

I only have experiences with Pioneer and Yamaha amplifiers/receivers and they usually have a "pure direct" mode so you just need to toggle…

To go down that route, you'll usually need an AV receiver of some sort with passive speakers. That could easily balloon out the cost to ten…

Yeah, we used an Edifier active speaker for our TV for years before upgrading. I recommend getting the Edifier R1280DBs as it has an…

I use this Snowman cooler from Aliexpress: https://vi.aliexpress.com/item/1005006867576863.html but I think this 3-fans version is better:…

From what I have found, for 1440p @ 144Hz, you'll need at least DisplayPort 1.2. DisplayPort 1.2 was first introduced in 2010 which was a…

So far, more than half-way through it's console lifecycle, there are only around a dozen games that are truly exclusive on the PS5. Owning…

As an alternative, I use this dolly from Bunnings: https://www.bunnings.com.au/syneco-580-x-290-x-100mm-movers-dolly_p3962033 Works quite…

Try a different web-browser. I switched to Chrome and it worked on the 2nd attempt.

I got the same error on the Firefox web-browser. Switched to Chrome, tried again and it worked fine. I'd recommend trying to different…

Remember to use credit cards that don't charge "foreign conversion fees". Even though it's listed in Australian dollars and that you will…

Pretty sure that it will be more than capable. I used to run MAME and various emulators on a PC with i3-3220 (3rd Gen) and 8GB RAM. No…

From Coles, I usually buy a bulk pack of instant noodles and add an extra slab of noodles to the existing one. This dilutes the spiciness…

Isn't the 'drive-thru' the same as 'in-store only'? It's either 'in-store' or 'delivery' and the 'drive-thru' is simply the lazier method…

It's one tray with 2 slots: slot 1 for sim card and slot 2 for micro-SD card. Second sim is eSim only.

Bigger display with 2 physical buttons for page turning. For some, that's worth the price.

I prefer the Single Origin versions from Aldi. Columbia is the best, followed by Brazil.

Yes, it will play those games fine. I got the Lenovo m10 (from earlier Aldi deal) for my mum and it fine for those undemanding games.

Still have this movie on pirated VCDs obtained from China.

Red is a "lucky" color used by other Asian countries such as Japan and Korea and is not limited to China. "Spring Festival" is also…

Total lies and propaganda from the Western media. I've visited China 4 times over the past 20 years and none of what you stated is true.…

The actual box stated "Spring Festival" and never mentioned China so one could say that it's targeted toward East Asia rather than being…

Very easy to side-load apps into Fire Stick but I don't think it's possible to do that on Apple TV (as far as I know).

Seems to have decent reviews. $5 is worth taking a punt even though I wasn't planning on purchasing anything today.

When I was traveling overseas last year, I used a cheap ($30) battery powered electric grinder from eBay (link below). It worked very well…

The Dell thin clients from a couple of months ago are probably equivalent to Raspberry Pis in terms of power consumption given that the TDP…

They all use the Intel i5 6500 chip which has a TDP of 65W which is pretty typical of modern PCs so I'd expect the power consumption to be…

PS4 version now OOS (back to normal prices), only Xbox version left.
