Can confirm, it's been available to watch out there for a while now :)

Ah, the lenovo education store isn't a bad idea once she's got her email - thanks, we'll check it out if there's any good deals there! Also…
17/10/2024 - 22:14
Thanks for the suggestion and in depth review of things, this is perfect! I'll keep an eye out for a good laptop that has everything I need…

Do you have any recommendation for her? As I said in my other reply I don't really know what stuff they teach in cyber/programming courses,…
17/10/2024 - 16:04
The only thing is if she wants/needs to get into things like VMs/docker etc, would it not be better to have a better CPU for that? I'm not…
17/10/2024 - 16:03
Out of curiosity if my SIL wants to start a course in cyber security and needs something for programming/light gpu stuff, would something…

I keep wanting to get some smart plugs, ideally with energy monitoring, but there's so many cases of these types of units just dying after…

This seems quite good for ps5 gaming right? 4k 120fps, hdmi 2.1, all the good stuff for it? Anything I'm missing?
29/09/2024 - 14:52
Ah, well spotted! I had a look around and other places (I think The Good Guys) said it was 120Hz, but when I looked at the spec sheet…
28/09/2024 - 13:09
This TV seems... rather good? HDMI 2.1 and VRR for console gaming, 75", eARC, 120Hz refresh rate? What's the downside if I'm going to be…
28/09/2024 - 10:23
If it's your thing, this has been on certain seas for a while now
15/09/2024 - 19:47
Car dealerships can be evil, evil places. I had to deal with one a few years ago when my sister in law was getting a car and they were just…
22/08/2024 - 14:53
Oh man, I really want to get more but I've already got like 4-5ish sitting around doing nothing that I still need to make more plans for...…
17/08/2024 - 23:43
Ah, normally I was told that you could put things like the year, IMDb/TVDB ID etc in the movie/folder name for things like plex/JF to pick…
07/08/2024 - 12:39
I'm like 99% sure you can do this with plex as well. What are some examples of metadata that you use locally just so I can double check?
07/08/2024 - 09:35
Yup, I don't doubt it, but, for my circumstances, one option was to spend a bunch of time (and maybe money) looking into what DDNS things…
06/08/2024 - 22:52
Yeah, given how customisable jellyfin is I'm not surprised there's solutions to my problems, but because I already had plex set up, I…
06/08/2024 - 22:48
I haven't tried emby, but I tried jellyfin a little while ago after using plex for ages. It's worth noting that I have quite a few remote…

That's what worries me - I've heard of a lot of issues of them dying even under a normal load, which is a little annoying :(
16/07/2024 - 13:41
I've heard of instances of the smart plug dying, but not sure how the end device is, but I'm not 100% sure about that. That said, if smart…
16/07/2024 - 11:27
That's great to know, thanks! Do you know how quick the energy monitoring is? Is it instant when local?
16/07/2024 - 11:26
I've been around on the HA forums and there's people saying it's an issue with all brands - Kogan, Meross, TP link etc, so not related to a…
16/07/2024 - 11:24
Does this work locally with HA by any chance? Also I keep hearing about how smart plugs that people have keep dying on them even though…
16/07/2024 - 11:12
I've asked this before to a provider and they said it moves with you. Definitely worth double checking just to be sure, but when I asked…

If it's your thing, A Ballard of Songbirds and Snakes and The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare are both available on certain seas
22/06/2024 - 01:45
I know right! No matter what happens, we still have to pay over $100 per quarter just for daily supply charge. It's brutal
08/06/2024 - 17:42
Not a family home yet, but just power is super expensive here and there's not many places that have good feed in tariffs either - if you…
08/06/2024 - 02:35
Nope, we have our own place. We also have a solar system that helps, but those rates are pretty average for Brisbane here unfortunately.
08/06/2024 - 01:04
Is there anyone in Vic that will let me steal their power? Prices in Brisbane are about 115-130c/day and our fixed rate is about 24-33c/kWh…
