Acquiring an item under false pretences is theft.

Do the children you're worried about have spiracles?

My golden rule with tools is - buy the cheap version, then replace it if you use it enough to break it (or you're using it so frequently…

Counterpoint: vinyl sounds a bit shit but will do so forever. DVDs and Blu Ray look great until the media degrades and it becomes a…

If you're on the fence (heh) about buying one of these, I learned my local men's shed has one you can use for free (as do several others in…

Woah, things have got more expensive in the last decade?

Carfree here. Is there any realistic difference between a Hyundai and a BMW? Home free here, why do people pay more money for a house in…

+1 Archies gang. I much prefer the look of Havis but either the quality has taken a dive or I've got clumsier - I get a year max out of a…

Apple is doing pretty well with Gen Z, and industrial design goes through a lot of market research. I can promise you the idea of pink…

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…

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 -…

I've owned dozens (maybe even hundreds) of wall wart transformers in my life and I've literally never had one fail (mechanically or…
