Broden on Herschel: Novel Duffle Bag 43L $29, Travel Kit $10, Wallet $10, Cardholder $5 + Delivery @ Woolworths Group via Everyday Market
The vegan leather that Herschel uses breaks down and flakes off after a while. I wouldn't recommend them at all.

They don’t last very long either in my experience.
It’s both. Some people with halogen lights are replacing them with LEDs without getting their reflectors changed, so they’re way too…

At this price it’s an easy buy. The only complaint I have about mine is that it has trouble with the edges of my rugs and the fur from my…
The horror of it all! My nephews and nieces don't even use SMS/RCS apps. They're full-time on Discord, Snapchat and Whatsapp.

hollykryten on Crucial T705 2TB PCIe Gen 5.0 NVMe SSD $273.53 Delivered @ Amazon US via AU
In my opinion, high IOPS, high random write speeds, and sustained speeds are more useful in real world workloads.

Thanks OP. I personally can’t stand Paw Patrol, but unfortunately my son loves it.

N100/N150 is more like 6th/7th gen Intel for CPU performance with higher efficiency, except with much better onboard graphics.

If China can't stop citizens from using obfuscated VPNs, there's no chance the Australian government can.

7ekn00 on PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB Graphics Card $579 Delivered / C&C / in-Store @ Centre Com
Yep. It needs a newer kernel than what SteamOS has so it’d be best to use Bazzite for a SteamOS-like experience.

UltimateAI on KeepLink 8-Port PoE Gigabit Network Switch w/ 2x Uplink Ports - AU Plug US$22.11 (~A$34) Shipped @ KeepLink Store AliExpress
