B3 on [Back Order] LG 77" OLED EVO G4 4K UHD Smart TV (2024) $5495 + Delivery / Depot Pickup @ JB Hi-Fi

This is value for money. You can spend half the amount and get something nowhere near half as good.

Nothing standard about the sun rising at 4:45am.

An amusing comment for someone likely in SE QLD to make. A geographical area that's arguably in the wrong timezone.

Porker on Bankwest Platinum Debit Mastercard - Fee-Free International Transactions and ATM Withdrawals

A BankWest card? Pretty sure they don’t have currency conversion like you’re talking about.

I've struggled to use this in SEA, even at bank ATMs in Singapore. No issues in the US. They seem extremely risk averse. No issues with a…

HSBC is a weird one where the FX rates are actually not the Visa/Mastercard rates and rather a bank rate with a huge margin.

WiFi is a bit of dark art, and the "specs" don't really tell you how well something will perform however a used Smart Modem is a cheap…

One double brick wall should not make WiFi unusable. Replace your Netcomm rubbish with a Telstra Smart Modem Gen 2 from marketplace.

nigel deborah on $10,000 Deposit Contribution for 2025 GV80 Coupe, $8,000 for 2025 GV80 @ Genesis Finance

Pretty much every engine they make has some sort of serious failure or common issue. The 3.3 has oil consumption and ring issues. Class…

BMW are easily more reliable than Hyundai these days. Audi and Mercedes are probably line ball. Hyundai/Kia do not make reliable cars

I would strongly recommend using a DisplayPort dock rather than one of these. The chances of your Windows laptop not supporting 2-3 screens…

Lets Make Sandwiches on Cupra Born MY24 with Interior Pack $49,990 Drive Away @ Cupra Australia

High spec, fit and finish is one thing. How the car actually drives and how the software works is something else. A close competitor to…

Europcar (which is owned by VW)

I have driven a Tesla. You clearly haven’t driven anything else because if you did you would know other EVs perform regenerative braking…

The “drag” effect is less efficient. You’re best driving in normal mode and using the brake pedal to perform regenerative braking.

No one said brakes aren't used. You'll note this car has big 340mm discs on the front. The rear drum is enough to supplement the regen…

Rear discs on a RWD EV are a negative. They're completely unnecessary and the lack of use can cause problems.

Definitely more intuitive. EVs should just drive like cars. OPD is a gimmick.

Optus traveller SIMs compare pretty well if you ask me https://www.optus.com.au/prepaid/traveller-sim USA is by far the worst.

AIS eSIM

Personal opinion is okay as long as it doesn't get presented as fact.

People who drive more cars in a year than you will in your entire life are very positive about how the MG4 drives.

It’s better than that car.

It shouldn't wipe anything. What it does is matches music that exists in Apple Music and uploads stuff that doesn't. The matching process…

Dollar Dreamer on Kogan 86" QLED 4K Tizen Smart TV - T96Q $1285 ($1265 with Kogan FIRST) Delivered @ Kogan

No IPS panel is "cinematic". Not to mention how inaccurate the colours are going to be on this thing. If you want a cheap and cheerful 85"…

Drakesy on Get $200 off a 4-Year 4Plus Care Plan for 4-15 Year Old Volkswagen Vehicles Only @ Volkswagen Online
