This is a lot older and a fair bit slower, but if you don't need the performance it'd still be pretty good. Still more than fast enough for…

Almost entirely dependant on what you do. Gaming will kill the battery in under an hour, website browsing could last 6hrs+, just depends on…

And also, 256mb to 4gb is a 16x increase in base spec.4 to 8 is only 2x. Even 250$ miniPCs come with 16GB nowadays XD. It truly is a crime…

RAM capacity only matters if you actually use all of it (eg. Leave a bunch of chrome tabs open and go do something else) If you don't use…

I'd say it's an anchoring thing, but realistically most people won't know why it matters. I have to wonder if this is just Apple screwing…

Tbh, actually not that bad in this respect. It's a pretty reasonable portion (for a guy, at least)

These are nice cables in my experience. Idk if they are worth the money, but there's probably value in never having to worry about random…

ARM isn't really any better. CPUs nowadays are very similar internally, regardless of instruction set. However, Arm CPU vendors are way…

FWIW, there's not much reason for SATA to be cheaper nowadays. Same flash chips, just bottlenecked by the slow interface. In practical…

This is actually not bad. The older variants of this bike were gutless wonders (like 20HP), this comes in at 40HP which is much more…

Most brands and businesses come to the conclusion that chasing upmarket is usually the most profitable course of action. Cheaper brands…

Figures. They've got one at a crossing near me and it's not really sensitive enough - had it end a crossing early on me at least twice so…

Only apple could sell a PC with 512GB non-upgradeable store for 2.5k, all to force people to step up the overpriced storage ladder to a…

From a technical perspective, so long as you don't play games and can disable the RTX4090 you should get OK battery life, but it depends on…

What long weekend? :'(

This has been on my app forever, so long as it's set to a particular KFC store, and it's reusable too :)

Most electronics don't give two shits about input power quality. 99% rectify and cut it up themselves anyway internally. I've used 120VDC…

Because they get to advertise a low base price for a system no one should actually buy. The config you should be getting (16gb/512ssd) is…

Ditto - was nice to get a solid deal for once, though I would have been happy with this too - haven't had KFC nuggets in a while :(

You're assuming an absurd situation to justify it. Prices can only rise so much before demand falls below supply and they stop rising.

Really? I bought some XM2s, they developed a ticking noise in NC mode after 9mo and they replaced them with XM3s - didn't even have to send…

What's special about these Dyson vacs that make them worth 1k? Seems a tad expensive for a vacuum?

Depends on the difficulty level, but definitely pausing + higher difficulties turns it into a game of figuring out best ROIs and…

Bearing in mind I am/used to be a guy that carried around an iPhone mini + iPad, mostly using the iPad for reading on the train and using…

Galaxy Fold 4 - compact and turns into an iPad Mini-sized screen unfolded.

Baffled the fold 4 isn't higher. Suppose most people haven't tried or got a folding phone, but I think the fold 4 is easily the best out of…

These scissors are great, paid quite a bit more importing from England at one point. Engineer makes excellent tools, I adore their…

Obviously totally different applications, but generally recommend paying extra for high-quality USB cables. It's shit when they don't work…

hah, fair enough - I figured I'd at least get us to the right order of magnitude :P

I bought one recently for 1100$ on Ebay (probably overpaid going by some of these comments.. - still in the return period, I suppose?).…
