slothful replied to MasterScythe on Intel X710-DA2 Dual Port 10GbE SFP+ Ethernet Converged Network Adapter (X710DA2) $173.38 Delivered @ Amazon AU
Yep, I made the mistake of trying to run one of these passively in a standard PC case. It got alarmingly toasty before dying, though to be...

Wow, I thought you were missing a zero there until I checked online. That's comically slow.

slothful replied to djamesm88 on OXO 11107400 Good Grips Garlic Press, Black $21.26 C&C @ The Good Guys
Agreed. I've owned the OXO press and while it is built like a tank it doesn't crush nearly as well ones with a cantilever mechanism.

slothful replied to BrutalitopsMage on 15% off (Some Exclusions) @ The Good Guys
Both the 55" and 65" C1s seem to be advertised specials so I'd guess that they're excluded. Shame because it would have been a good price...

slothful replied to mangobango on Xiaomi Mijia 24 in 1 Precision Screwdriver Set US$16.99 (~A$22.92) Delivered (AU Stock) @ Banggood AU
There's also something curiously satisfying about how the case opens and closes, makes you feel like the John Wick of electronic repair.

'Aggressively mediocre' is the most common assessment of Disenchantment I've encountered. It's better than modern Simpsons, but that's a...

It's genuinely impressive how quickly ozbargainers have picked pretty much every store in Australia clean of stock.

The story makes more sense if you play through them linearly, but Thief (particularly Thief Gold) has some not-so-great missions so I'd...

That's one hell of a tolerant cat, you'd need a blood transfusion if you tried to pull that with any of ours.

slothful replied to RedHab on Hantek DSO5102P 100MHz Oscilloscope $299.86 + Shipping @ Banggood
Couple of reasons. Firstly to save on costs a single ADC is often shared (interleaved) between all of the active channels, so the 1GSa/s...
