$23 for "name brand" spirits is good, but my local sells bottles of Divas Vkat for $13.9 every day - and it seems some Thirsty Camel's are…

Looking at the picture of it, I can see buttons saying "pressure cook", "chicken soup", "ferment bread" and "bread baking". So it seems to…

Нет, всё хорошо.

I posted my invoice from JB in the OP.

Changed for me too! I guess $209 was a typo or something?

They always made it out of warranty (the oldest ones might have only been 1 year anyway), and I just keep them in the drawer now anyway, as…

The 2TB Seagate Expansion that I bought in 2021 now has 34,200 power-on-hours and 270 power-cycles according to HWMonitor! And not that…

Fair enough. I've been using this sort of portable USB3 ones for at least 15 years. I remember the WD did fail a bit more worse than the…

Maybe, but this CenterCom HDD, and the JB Hifi version, are both WD**BPKJ0050**BBK. The OfficeWorks one you linked is WD**MP5T**BBK. Edit:…

This exact product with the lines on it?

I've been looking at 4/5/6TB portable hdd's the last couple of weeks, and $209 for 5TB is about as good as I've seen* - and this isn't even…

> 4. Profit is that before or after negative gearing?

Depends what you think "drives good" means, because nothing that old is going to "drive good" like how "something modern" "drives good". *…

kinda true, coz if you preheat the water for your steam engine then your coal briquettes will go way further!

> I have never had a Makita tool fail, and most of mine are around 10yo now. I bought an 18v drill ~2013, and one of the first times I used…

You linked the non-hammer drill DF333DZ, and it shows $95.98 for me (sale price).

* AM4 X3D cpu won't be cheap (unless AMD release some new ones). * Check out some [2024 era benchmark charts for the…

Yep. I've got my own receipts. * 280X for $319 in 2014 = $429 in 2025 money. (died years ago, but did alright. It was an XFX GPU, and I…

> If running AI models 100% though its not always as simple with non-nvidia cards That's a good point. I'm not up-to-date on the AMD side…

I read a good point in a post the other day, which was that our slightly-improved dollar might be enough to offset RAM related price creep…

I wouldn't bother upgrading just to play those games. But if you want to dabble with AI, then it's a decent choice (and is why I bought…

Sames-ish, coz I bought one last week for $550 from PCCG. But I don't recall them having surcharge, so that's ~$5.50 saved - and there was…

I don't play games, but I've been using the B570 for the last 2 months, and it's been fine. I use A310 for the prior 18 months, and it was…

That looks pretty good for a budget board - especially the VRM cooling, which most low-end models neglect. Also 2x M.2 and 4x fan headers…

Just spotted this on MWave: [Open Box - Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 GAMING OC 16GB Video…

Like the others say, the hose is too short, and it is pretty loud — but it does work good, and it's easy to clean because everything…

Might just be a christmas related delay? I've got a delivery delayed that's coming from AusPost (which yes, isn't Amazon, but also, this is…

I reckon you're wasting your time if you are trying to watch HDR content in a bright room. That's like trying to buy audiophile headphones…
