May be but the only time (in 20+ years of flying) when someone stole my stuff from checked-in baggage was with Turkish, last November.

a granny only needs one tv with one cable though and she would not care less which room the tv is in :).

There are 5 dvb muxes (ABC, SBS, 7, 9, 10) in the ACT so you'll need maximum 2 of such splitters :-)

nah you don't need that many cables. A raspberry pi (v2 will do) + few dvb-t usb receivers (15$ per dvb mux) + tvheadend, I keep this setup…

says it cannot deliver to ACT, if I search for it on Ali, that very store sells it for AU$32.66. oops. update - it says so for a black…

HN just confirmed the order for 2 black speakers, the website said a couple of time "out of stock" but yet lets you proceed to checkout.

they only sell to medicare card holders :(

So what overseas travel insurance did you end up buying?

any hints where to find adequate international travel insurance? 1000000$ limit seems hard to find...

the flight is next week.

Bupa does not cover people older than 70 and Allianz wants the policy to start in 14 days, the flight is earlier. I am so screwed :-(

I guess yes but those covers may not be adequate. Like, 1.000.000$ annual limit. says immi.gov.au - travel insurances do not do this…

I am having visitors on 600 visa, one with the "8501 - Maintain health insurance" condition. There seem to be 2 choices: - go with some…

got my first firestick, pixel6 casts to it just fine with no additional apps installed

Well, https://www.turkishairlines.com/en-int/flights/business-partners/ lists both Garuda and Malaysian and there are success stories about…

from the link it sounds like it only lasted 6 month

yes i did and then i tried booking and got a warning to research about visas in connecting Asian airports, some googling suggested the…

Trying to buy tickets Chisinau(Moldova)<->Sydney, for ukrainians (so - may need visas), Turkish airlines pops up, alright. Now, they do not…

I've checked Austin/TX (everything they do indoor is good/great, they just do not get out), Seattle/Redmond/WA (wonderful very green…

it takes a while (2+ hours? have not measure, just slow) to reach 100% battery from 50% while working on the laptop.

I have not tried the yellow one but the blue one - USB-C-to-USB-C - does deliver 65W to my dell xps (but slowly) with one of those…

I have an extension cable and the newest firmware from Dec last year, as I have been doing this for years now for my older CC2531, I know…

my bet it is a bad firmware, waiting for an update.

I have this P for a week now and a couple of days ago my zigbee network just broke, and…

can you convert sim to esim later?

so it's esim and buying online which is the problem. the support just says it's impossible to convert the deal into long term plan.

yes, ported the number and bought esim, if that matters

no you cannot, I just tried. The initial 40$ recharge is activated no matter what and nothing is asking to change the plan afterwards.

cannot see that 60$/yr on the amaysim website, is it still on?

the walks scheme is horrendously bad though. would be lot lot better if it was like a map.
