I know it's speed limited, but do people find it responsive? I switched from boost to aldi (4g) a few months ago and despite both being on…

HappyPants on Anko Hand-Powered Espresso Coffee Maker $14 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store/ OnePass/ $65 Order) @ Kmart

I think it's a mistranslation from "crema" which makes sense when you consider that crema is the French/Spanish word for cream.

NedStark102 on Anko Hand-Powered Espresso Coffee Maker $14 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store/ OnePass/ $65 Order) @ Kmart

Unless I'm mistaken, this basically is an Aeropress. The concept of a manual espresso press is not new, aeropress is just a convenient form…

Pretty much all USB chargers do all of the common high speed charging standards (of which I think there are two main types). Just use a…

SanguinarySeraph on Tineco FLOOR ONE S5 STEAM Smart Wet-Dry Vacuum Cleaner and Steam Mop $408.98 Delivered @ Tineco AU via Amazon AU

It's ok, I appreciate the pedantry. Jump starters can delivery 100A - but they're a specific use case.

Do you have any recommendations on which Bissel to get for both carpet and upholstery?

Battery vacuums are convenient, but you can't draw 2000w from an 18v battery.

It looks like it was designed by Elon Musk

For a hatch, I would say 200k is getting up there. Sure they might go for another 200k, but you are never sure - and things will break more…

Indistinguishable in all but the most extreme cases.

They really need to think about their branding palette; I thought this was an add for Chemist Warehouse at first.

I'm not even old and I can't wait to switch to an EV (when my current ICE gets too old). I don't like the level of electronic complexity…

I've never tried one of these, but it would have to be something amazing to make me go back to a membrane keyboard.

macrocephalic commented on RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK Mechanical Keyboards Red/Blue/Brown Switch $20 to $39 + Delivery + Surcharges @ Umart
Almost bought one then realised that it doesn't have the function key row. I'm way too old to unlearn using those.

macrocephalic commented on Sony WH-1000XM4 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones (Black/Silver) $303 Delivered @ Amazon AU
I have a pair of these. The ANC has screwed up and goes into a feedback loop until it squeals into your ear. This is apparently a common…

I have the Edge 30 Neo and it does that, so I'd be amazed if this one didn't.

It's a bit on the expensive side, but probably cheaper than fancy light panels

Indomietable on Terramaster D4-320 4-Bay DAS USB 3.2 x Gen2 10Gbps Type-C $263.99 Shipped @ TerraMaster via Amazon Au

It's a lot of money for what's essentially four hard drive bays. May as well just buy an ex govt PC and put drives in it.
