With sub-zero Winters and 40°C + Summers... yes, people absolutely *do* need well insulated places with heating and cooling.

Give your car a nice detail (interior and exterior), then take some nice pics of it - would also include pics of the logbook, spare keys…

Maybe I got lucky... workstations at my workplace only Bluescreened once, then we were unable to connect to our internal network. Tech…

Deleting system files in dangerous for eh inexperienced + you're leaving your device open to security vulnerabilities - better to wait for…

I think anything higher than 70g counts as heavy IMO

Consumer-grade Blurays are being discontinued just FYI, so stock up on these if you need them

I still haven't built mine since the last deal

If the temps settle at 85, perhaps try adjusting the fan curve? My old Sapphire Nitro+ RX480 would always settle somewhere between 75-80…

The MG3 hasn't been ANCAP safety rated, and the MG5 literally scored a 0 star rating last year - don't spend your money on this unsafe…

Agreed, but friendly reminder that Efficiency Rating != quality

Default keycaps for the cheaper Keychrons feel a bit weird imo, I'd grab a set of PBT keycaps if buying one

Frugal is probably the most relevant one for me, though I try to buy good quality things when on sale - not a fan of buying eg. cheapo…

I also had an Amazon delivery marked as Delivered, despite the fact that nobody rang the buzzer while I was home... it mysteriously…

For Blurays at least, 4k vs 1080P is noticeable (depending on the film) Having said that, regular Blurays on a 4k TV still look fine

Nothing fancy - Seiko Chrono Quartz (first "real" watch, bought in high school), Bulova Quartz, and a Citizen Auto

Dialogue might be harder to hear without a centre channel, compared to a decent soundbar

Worth getting the Cloud Alpha Wireless for $209 compared to these? 100 hours battery life would be plenty for me, but I'd like to keep this…

The old Kingston HyperX Cloud II was based on an entry-level studio headphone - TakStar Pro 80's IIRC. I'm not an audiophile, but I'm…

Did I just miss this? Code not working, was about to cop a Barracuda X Wireless

Cheers - been waiting for a sale, but my hard drive is nearly 8 years old now, so it's probably best to take the plunge soon as a…

My case only really has space for one 3.5" drive (PSU cables are stuffed in the second slot), so the bigger the better (4TB minimum maybe)…

Any recommendations for a replacement for a 1TB 7200RPM WD Blue? I'd like a high-capacity internal drive, but I get the impression that…

With current concert pricing and the cost of living crisis, live music is a luxury for most

It's diminishing returns, too - one of my workmates used to be a HiFi nerd, and his soundbar system (Sonos with surrounds) is apparently…

And most of the time, they're towing a caravan. I've seen them decide to speed up when being overtaken by trucks, too

Had my A129 Plus Duo for just over 2 years, no issues. Other than the rear camera adhesive failing and it falling off after 20 minutes...

MK6 Fiesta ST/XR4?

2 year *contractor* position, or 2 year fixed-term contract? If it's the latter - go full-time and just retire when you feel like it…

I'm watching Better Call Saul right now, after Breaking Bad - thoroughly enjoying it, but a very different show.

Ended up only buying a few things: * Joker 4K * Beverly Hills Cop 4K * Oblivion 4K (blind buy) * Ready Player One 4K (blind buy) Wanted to…
