Remorhaz on Best 3D Printer Recommendation for a First-Timer - Seeking OzBargain Wisdom

1a) I store mine in large tubs from Bunnings, but I have enough now that I might need to set up a wall rack with some curtain rods. 1b) I…

Sucks that none of the other capacities are on special. Would like to upgrade some of my 8TBs :(

vongole83 on AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU $809 Delivered @ Computer Alliance via Amazon AU

CPUs don't have pins any more, the motherboards do. So I am not sure what you are referring to.

G-rig on Google TV Streamer 4K $88 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ In-Store) @ Harvey Norman

I'm confused. You literally just contradicted yourself by saying formats haven't changed much since the 2010s. Or were you admitting that…

G-rig on Google TV Streamer 4K $88 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ In-Store) @ Harvey Norman

Yes, easily. And new formats don't come out that often. I have an 8+ year old receiver with 15+ year old DALI speakers that still works…

Go hotels/AirBNBs in July. Heating in caravans isn't very reliable and it's flookin' cold over there this time of year. I also didn't…

That *is* a deal-breaker. Was hoping to replace my aging OG Shield TV Pro, but have a decent sound system with decent chunk of media in…

Don't believe it's changed yet, but I believe MAAA have confirmed that CASA are removing the VLOS spotter restriction on FPV. So you still…

I think it's just more that the capabilities of the Mini improved drastically so the price:performance ratio makes it much harder to…

If you fly commercially then you need to both have a license and register your drone no matter what the weight is. You also need to…

The 250g law is for the USA. Australia has no such requirement around licensing/registering > 250g.…

Got a trip to NZ later in the year and was considering the HoverAir X 1 Pro, but found out that there's rumours of a Neo 2 soon. That being…

Drone laws have been in place for quite a while. There's no new laws. In fact, the laws are loosening slightly (for FPV at least).

trankillity commented on Should I Get an SFF PC or Gaming Laptop?
Additional option/food for thought - if it's only a year, just use any old laptop (even a Chromebook would do by the sounds of it) and get…

Zigbee is great as long as you don't live in a RF-noisy neighbourhood. If you do, you will need to work out what channel Zigbee will be…

ezza on OnePass Mobile 365-Day 360GB Prepaid Mobile Plan Starter Kit - $165 (Save $135) Delivered (New Services Only) @ OnePass Mobile

I highly suggest you disable roaming entirely and look into eSIM options like Roamless/Saily. Super simple, and works out much cheaper.…

Realistically, none in Australia. Both Nvidia and AMD are taking the piss with local conversions. Perhaps a second hand 3080/4080 would be…

trankillity commented on PureVPN Auto-Renewed without Notice - Charged Higher for Less. What Should I Do?
That sucks, but it's also the reason that I learned to always put my own reminders in. Especially easy with the snooze feature of most…

That's precisely the route we're taking too. And these motorhomes look excellent with excellent reviews. Thank you very much for bringing…

mantra on Seagate 18TB Exos X18 $619 C&C /+ Del ($0 to Metro) @ Scorptec, [Premier] Seagate 18TB IronWolf Pro $599 Del/C&C @ Centre Com

Picked up two of the 18TB in that deal. Was bonkers!

You can, if you buy a new chassis. I'm saying that if you go an alternative route, your only recovery option will be borrowing a chassis.

trankillity commented on Synology NAS Died - What to Replace It with?
I have a DS423+ which is one of their last with the Celeron CPU for Intel QuickSync compatibility. This was highly desired because I use my…

That is such a nothing-burger concern. The new policy is basically "you get extra reporting if you use Syno branded drives". You can still…

trankillity commented on Suggest Me a Product for a 4 Bay NAS
I went with the Syno DS423+ because it's their last model that has the Celeron chip which allows for Intel QuickSync giving hardware…

Not free. $250US for a lifetime license. More approachable than Proxmox and supports variable redundancy across different sized disks…

Exactly, it'll be 2+ years for PC most likely. If it really is "for GTA6", OP really needs to hibernate for like 1.5 years then look at the…

Yeah, I wasn't discounting the OP's experience - just saying that my own paranoia wasn't warranted by simply looking at historical data.
