UWB is not perfect. My car has it, and while it works 99% of the time when I'm approaching it from some distance in a car park…

It has a large (7x7') aluminium frame which helps with confidence, especially beginners worried about shanking it to the sides. The net and…

Believe it or not, I'm not such a turbo gooner as to get horny over a photo of a woman in modest clothes?

F me. Imagine having finite time on this planet, and spending it hyperfixated on an internet website that doesn't like you.

~~Yay~~ Yea or nay.

If you can't afford a BMW new, you probably can't afford one used. Have you looked at what insurance will be? Even basic servicing. And…

It's good for runners who don't want to have a phone bouncing on a belt or vest

SydStrand commented on NAS for Plex
Don't buy a 2 bay. They're only slightly cheaper and while you think you'll be fine with it now, you'll 100% want more later.

They added it again (I suspect in response to Solar Sharer). You used to be able to get the best of both worlds when their EV plan with…

For the price, it's unbeatable. I sometimes grab one to shred up for sandwiches, salad, etc.

You're referring to something already more commonly known as the 'buy it for life' (BIFL), there's an active…

The only valuable part in it is the 5080. The rest is junk they can't sell individually. > easily one of the cheapest RTX 5080 rigs I’ve…

I'd second the Costco Callaway set. Very solid clubs, and forgiving of beginners. It's not a 'complete' set of 14, but it has enough to…

No offence, but you and your co-workers sound like insecure tossers. RMs were traditionally work boots. My parents bought a pair for me…

It's crap. I still have it, although I suspect they'll eventually change this for grandfathered plans. Was good to set the home battery to…

I've only won things like small vouchers and food, but I did get TWO rare monopoly tokens after the promotion ended a few years ago (one…

I'm curious what you think 'ex-demo' means, OP. Not ragging, just curious. Because if you thought it means a babied showroom model that…

Dubai doesn't even make chocolate, it's just influencer peddling. The conspiracy theory in me wonders if it was promoted by the Emirati…

I don't even think they say 'for the win' these days.

No cover. It's quite an old-school and simple mandolin, so no storage space for hand guards or anything. I just store sideways in a drawer…

So... you own the tools, including presumably a jack and tyre inflater, both of which cost a lot more than $45. Quick googling of repair…

Do you think $45 is unreasonable? You must not value your time.

If OP's puncture wasn't on a side wall, this is one of the few things I am happy paying someone else. Had a puncture done at Bob Jane's a…

Pointless comparison. It all depends on your appetite for risk. If you said Nvidia shares 5 years ago, then it's a no-brainer. But you…

That doesn't even make sense. Because it costs you money to use appliances without solar PV, regardless of hour?
