Care to elaborate? Is ASUS on the buy or no buy list, and what would be your recommendation? Honest question as I’m in the market for a…

This is the way. I moved to SS last year and love it (after a quick initial learning curve).

Exactly the kind of recommendation I’ve been looking for, thx.
13/02/2025 - 13:38
But overall, is ASUS a good call for my new (not huge, single level, no bricks or concrete) home? Thinking security and backdoor issues. My…

Got it, Thanks all. 👍

Genuine question, why has this been negged and is the OP route better? I’m after recommendations.

Hmm, my comment was blocked, not sure why as I'm not an affiliate, just trying to help. If you search Amazon for this, you'll see what I…

No probs, always happy to help OzB'ers. 👍

Note I updated the Amazon link with something more appropriate, the key part being USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 compatibility.

The USB-A ports in your monitor are USB 3.2 Gen 1, which should support your 4K cam. Something along the lines of this should do the trick:…

Both of your Dell monitors actually contain USB hubs, so you can plug the webcam directly into one of the USB-A ports on the back of the…

Did the account banning news from a few months back turn out to be anything? Seemed they were cracking down on other region redemptions,…

Could this output digital to a USB DAC Amp?

A bit like Amazon Marketplace. Not for groceries. Look for items with the orange icon. 👍

Fair point, I like the cases but I’m also really pedantic and like things staying ‘new’. 😅

This style of suitcase always looks super banged up IRL. Nice straight of be shelf perhaps.

Are the screens on these any good for HDR video? Deep blacks? Coming from iPad Pro 12.9” 2018, which has good colour but very bright…

OK security conscious people, can I ask what the preferred, most secure brand/model recommendation would be if one was concerned with…

Excellent post and informative comments. Nice one OzB! 👏 My QCY T13 still impress after 2.5 years (and I have some nice high end IEMs…
17/01/2025 - 21:23
I'd stick to a reputable brand name or Apple itself. While cheapies may work at first, they can carry some risk. The MacBook Air will need…

Damn, literally just bought a Japan eSim elsewhere an hour ago. 🙃

I’ve had a few over the years, gens 3/5/8 i5s, and currently a NUC 11 Essential with the N5105 (similar to N95 performance). Gen 3 still…

Anyone have any comments on the build quality of these Beelink devices, compared to the Intel NUCs of yesteryear? I always bought the…
13/01/2025 - 10:08
While it’s not for me, it has its niche and is likely of very high quality. Hall effect sticks, micro switch buttons, and wired means the…

Oh wow, thanks so much for letting me know! That is a much better price. I’ve re-bought and will cancel my other order. Much appreciated!!
09/01/2025 - 16:20
Yeah, spotted that after I posted. Not an amazing price but purchased anyway to give it a try in my workflow. Thanks. :)

Has anyone seen the Magic Trackpad (Lightning) being cleared out anywhere? That would be worthwhile if so (I assume it’s also been…
