The original was quite fun before they tried to turn it into an Among Us clone. Might have a look for $0 though.

Ha - same day, same store, same experience. Should have checked here first.

Would these work in my RBS850 network? Great price if it gets me a mesh AP in my garage!

Even before the chip switch they were updating their firmware to close out OTA tasmota exploits. Like a lot of tech today they're all about…

I'd start with Sonoff if you're more interested in control, or a D1 mini if you're more interested in monitoring. Then Home Assistant is…

Almost certainly not, unfortunately - over the last few years Tuya has seemingly gone to a bit of effort to kill Tasmota. Nothing that's…

If they all have the same pinout, what actually changes? I'd have thought that over short distances copper could handle high data rates…

I pull mine around by its back constantly (low resistance shitty office industrial carpet) and have never had an issue! Maybe the…

They can cop a bit more abuse too. The pelicle (sp?) they use on the Aeron looks nicer, but it can burr or rip with bad treatment. The seat…

I have an Aeron, a Mira and an Embody but have never even seen this one before. What's it like? Any OzB hot takes?

The last few Tuya devices I've bought can't be flashed at all, even via serial.

I think the suggestion is that you'd talk to the foreign country yourself, but Optus would reimburse the cost.

I'm with you on Ali Express components - I've bought sensors that are just stamped with someone else's spec, that just plainly don't work -…

Love the combination of incredibly vague comments and OPs sincere efforts to be helpful. OP: I want to fly, but I won't tell you where,…

That's good of them, and I believe is the (voluntary) policy for most grocery retailers.

Are you seriously suggesting that an independent Blacktown greengrocer intentionally made an error on their in store signage as part of a…

You don't have to honour marked prices (the shelf signage is called an invitation to treat, but the actual contract happens at the checkout…

It's real and it's legitimately delicious. Cured meats (while very tasty) unfortunately increase your risk of a few types of cancer. Veggie…

The vegetarian pepperoni was incredible (when they had it). Fingers crossed for a return some day!

I appreciate your note here - and the fact the reviews on Maps etc are getting better is a sign you're doing a great job. Plus, some of the…

Practices can change, but the burden of proof should be pretty high for you to take a chance with somebody who has literally broken the law…

So glad to be out of the stage in my life where I would deal with these jokers to save $10. I know this is sacrilege on OzB, but I'd rather…

Have they given them away in the past? I was always assuming I'd have to buy a new battery, but in hindsight it did deteriorate shockingly…
