S Baldrick commented on [Prime] Wobkey Rainy 75 Wireless 2.4ghz Mechanical Keyboard $170.40 Shipped @ KBM Gadgets via Amazon Au
Keychron V1 Max is another great 75%, got one with Gateron Jupiter Banana switches recently and it's great.

S Baldrick commented on Panasonic DP-UB450GN 4K UHD Blu Ray Player $239 + Delivery ($0 C&C/In-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi
Even though this doesn't have the upscaling chip of the UB-820, Blu-rays still look fantastic on this (watching on a TCL C845). I haven't…

pacificstorm on Panasonic DP-UB450GN 4K UHD Blu Ray Player $239 + Delivery ($0 C&C/In-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi

Sony X700 is notorious for not being able to handle triple-layer discs. I've watched at least 30 4Ks on my UB-450 and had a freeze on one…

The 9 Pro isn't compact by my standards, though it's probably the best we're going to get. Interesting about the cameras, reviews seem to…

Thoughts on the 9 Pro Vs the Razr 60 Ultra? Pixel 9 Pros: * Much cheaper * More compact * Longer software support * Better cameras Razr 60…

Can't always install software to use phone cameras on work devices

Twix on nbn 100/20 $75/M, nbn FTTP/HFC 1000/50 $85/M for 6 Months, nbn FTTP 250/100 $85/M for 6 Months (New Customers Only) @ Superloop

Do we know what's happening to 100/40?

Any reason why you want an SUV in particular? Might be a bit overkill for just two people, IMO.

Got one of these for my gaming PC, no complaints. Just waiting for the Red Plus to go on sale so I can use it for a NAS build.

S Baldrick commented on Ubiquiti UniFi Dream Router 7 (Wi-Fi 7 Tri-Band) $559 (Was $629) Delivered ($0 VIC, NSW, SA C&C) @ Centre Com
Would this be an idiot-proof, all-in-one method of setting up VLANs, firewalls etc. on a home network? Or would it be overkill? My current…

Fourth this, a mate of mine has one and it's very nice to drive/be in

People hoarding several investment properties isn't helping, either.

What connection type do you have? I've never had congestion issues on FTTP (Aussie Broadband and Superloop)

I'd personally rather a manual DB9/DBS

Amazon has them for $250. If you're like me and want something that'll last a long time (the battery will probably outlast the rest of the…

Seconding, I've been using mine for a few hours every week since last year - only charged once or twice, and that was at the 60-70% battery…

tp0 on Christopher Nolan 8-Film Collection 4K UHD Blu-ray, Region Free $118.62 Delivered @ Amazon UK via AU

I think they were just very average transfers, there are other 4K's based on 35mm scans that look much nicer imo But yes, the newer films…

Can confirm - I use an older model ThinkPad at my work, and we use a low-code platform. Would recommend 32GB RAM, 16GB can be a bit tight.

Good on you for staying up to date, I'd say you're already more informed than the majority of the population. I don't have any resources…

I think preferencing the candidate that aligns with your values (and their voting/track record Vs their policies) would be better IMO -…

They were in small print on the item tag, I don't blame you for not seeing them tbh

Are you on PC? AliExpress pedals might be worth looking at - no complaints with my Sim Jack Pro's.
