I use an M1 16GB MB Air as my everyday work machine, still an absolute beast.

Pappagarbage, I'm always surprised that place is still going.

I've been using an entry level Samsung 'Crystal' UHD TV from 2020 and it's been fantastic. Built in Airplay and Apps, can also use Stremio…

What do you use 1TB of storage for?

LanceVance commented on Best Budget Stick Vac
I'm using the Kmart $150 one, it isn't in any way remarkable but it does the job well enough.

Could be, that would drastically reduce the battery life and therefore increase the number of charge cycles it has been through. I rarely…

I agree, I would expect better from Mazda. They have seemingly taken the option of abandoning diesels altogether.

Mazda diesel's are known to be shit.

GordonD on Car Head Gasket Has Blown 6 Months after Service at Dealer - Does The Dealer Have a Responsibility

Fair enough but we're talking about a head gasket, the actual parts is the gasket itself (maybe $30) and any seals you might run into along…

Not their fault. Get comparative quotes as $6k is excessive, if and when you do get it fixed get rid of it as Diesel Mazda's seem to be…

Use case?

LanceVance commented on Apple iPad Pro M4 (11-inch, Standard Glass, Wi-Fi, 2TB) $2287 Delivered @ Amazon AU
Even at the sale price, can't fathom paying anywhere near that for an ipad.

Thats the weird thing, will happily sleep in a pram in a loud restaurant but is very sensitive to noise at night.

Don't flush #1's if the baby is asleep.
