axyh replied to Naigrabzo on Gardena 1891.20 Water Irrigation Control $76.18 Delivered @ Amazon UK via AU
LinkTap's hub uses standard MQTT and HTTP interfaces. LinkTap has fully documented these. Right now, you can use them entirely locally with…
axyh replied to Save Medicare on Gardena 1891.20 Water Irrigation Control $76.18 Delivered @ Amazon UK via AU
I'm really happy with mine. I went through a variety of cheaper tap timers over the years that had issues (one failed open, leaving the…

Yep, nobody had heard of them before that at all. Here's hoping TikTok can do something for the Beatles to pluck them out of obscurity.

The mid-70s was the peak era of Hipgnosis, so it's probably not even the strangest album cover of 1977.
axyh replied to Jimothy Wongingtons on [Back Order] Fleetwood Mac - Rumours - Vinyl 2011 Reissue - $34 + Delivery ($0 with Prime/ $59 Spend) @ Amazon AU
The advantage of buying this vinyl version is that you need to manually lift up the tonearm to loop tracks, encouraging you to stand up and…
Sell it on Temu or AliExpress with a deceptive description for a few dollars. Most people won't bother to go through the refund process…
Except what they're giving you a taste of is mostly poorly-made, disposable trash that doesn't look anything like the product image.
axyh replied to EitherWayUp on Apple MacBook Air 13" M2 256GB (Midnight) $1439 + Delivery ($0 WA C&C/ In-Store) @ Retravision (Price Beat $1375 @ Officeworks)
I agree, my objection is to the repeated internet claim that Macs manage memory better, making 8GB magically sufficient in cases where it…
axyh replied to 1st-Amendment on Apple MacBook Air 13" M2 256GB (Midnight) $1439 + Delivery ($0 WA C&C/ In-Store) @ Retravision (Price Beat $1375 @ Officeworks)
You may only be using 8GB, but many people have workloads that need more (video editing, memory-hungry software development tasks, running…
The costs of raw materials for batteries is plummeting right now. This is actually hurting the battery-makers and car-makers, as they…
The Model 3 LR has a battery warranty of 8 years or 192,000 km, so I'd expect that it will last at least that long. I'd hope it would be…
axyh replied to Ham Dragon on Anko Rice Cooker $10 + $9 Delivery ($0 C&C/ In-Store/ $60 Order) @ Target
Target has gone down-market, but so has Myer. To my mind, Myer is now what Target used to be.
Within our family, we’ve had very high end and very low end rice cookers. So I at least have a basis for comparison. The kind in this…
axyh replied to get-innocuous on Anko Rice Cooker $10 + $9 Delivery ($0 C&C/ In-Store/ $60 Order) @ Target
If you’re a regular rice eater, you’re probably better to get a decent cooker. We make one or two batches of rice per day, and I really…

Raspberry Pis are fantastic for edge cases that only apply to eight people in the country. But there are many different edge cases.…

Sure, but this is not "refurbished", and it should be pointed out on every such deal that they are using the term incorrectly. There is a…
axyh commented on [Refurb] Lenovo ThinkCentre M710q Tiny PC Intel i5 6400T 2.2GHz, 8GB RAM, 256GB NVMe SSD Win10Pro $100 Delivered @ Bufferstock
The description states it's "refurbished", but then states it has "signs of cosmetic wear and tear on the exterior". To me this simply…

Better for a desktop/router, but certainly not as good for field-use running off a USB-C power bank!
axyh replied to RolandWaites on Duratech 48W Temperature Controlled Soldering Station $20 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store/ $99 Order) @ Jaycar
There's probably very little difference in performance between the two. The real question is whether you're regularly soldering in places…
axyh replied to 42 on Sharp Aquos 4T-C70DL1X 70" 4K TV $999 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store) @ The Good Guys
It's really luck of the draw. I had CRT TVs in the 80s and 90s that only lasted a few years before glitching out or needing repairs. In…
axyh replied to YoursTruly on [Refurbished] Boost Mobile Refurbished Apple iPhone 8 64GB $99 + Delivery ($0 with over $250 Order) @ Coles Online
Realistically, they’re used phones. Refurbished phones would have parts replaced to near-new condition. These are just cleaned, put in a…

Here’s the 72 point inspection criteria: It’s a phone: 72 points It’s a sandwich: 0 points This one scored 72 points.

It depends on what you’re doing. I do astronomical photo editing, which is extremely memory hungry (I need to work with multiple channels…
axyh replied to jasswolf on Philips Fidelio X2HR/00 over-Ear Headphones $124.48 Delivered @ Amazon UK via AU
They’re not bad at all at the price-point. Personally, I think their response sounds a bit v-shaped, and the highs can be metallic. But I…
It depends on how your VR experience goes. Half the people I know with a Quest 2 are still into VR and use it all the time. The other half…

Self-raising flour is just a combination of flour, baking powder and a bit of salt. How is it really different from using standard plain…

"Happy and at peace" can mean different things to different people. Nobody can give you a universal recipe for that. To me, "happy and at…

It comes down to the build quality and control logic of the machine (resting, steaming, absorption cycles). The Aldi one is likely a clone…
