smigglejiggle on Suggestion for Classic 80s and 90's Movies That Is Suitable for 10-12 Year Old

Having rewatched Jumanji a few years ago…it’s actually pretty dark/creepy by modern standards. Definitely one of those ‘we watched…

sclyde2 on Car Suggestions for Very Tall, Very Large Man - New or Used, Petrol/Diesel or Electric - Budget up to $100k

This is a great tip too that I have experienced, but forgot about - **manual seats often DO go lower** than their electric counterparts.

SanguinarySeraph commented on Car Suggestions for Very Tall, Very Large Man - New or Used, Petrol/Diesel or Electric - Budget up to $100k
I'm nowhere near as big as you, but 6'2 with a long torso, and my experience is definitely that the spaciousness of the drivers seat…

Only real knock against the Mazda is the engine/performance, but they are generally reliable (similar to Toyota in that regard). And if you…

No idea on how it tracks for the new model so far - but this series is typically available for $900-$1200 through various EoFY, Black…

JIMB0 on Single Mum Needing Reliable Car Advice – Budget Around $25k, Tall Teen, Need Space & Warranty

100% agree - it’s an atrocious term cooked up in a marketing department that has little bearing on reality.

SanguinarySeraph commented on Single Mum Needing Reliable Car Advice – Budget Around $25k, Tall Teen, Need Space & Warranty
Camry or Mazda 6 (not diesel) for leg room - newer model under warranty with higher mileage as long as the service history is good. Service…

We used to call them four wheel drives when they actually had four wheel drive. The term SUV specifically came about **because** vehicles…

thrillhouse88 on LG 42" OLED EVO C4 4K UHD Smart TV $1198 + Delivery ($0 QLD C&C) @ Videopro

I wouldn't recommend for primarily productivity. Absolutely fantastic for entertainment, but high % white screen just isn't good on these.…

May4th on 4% off BYD Vehicles Purchased Through a Novated Lease @ BYD Australia

Just because it's advertised as 7 seats, doesn't mean you can fit a human being in them. That's kind of my point, there's incredibly few 7…

AaronR on 4% off BYD Vehicles Purchased Through a Novated Lease @ BYD Australia

Good car if it works for you. Personally I wouldn't classify it as cheap, and the 3rd row is too small to deserve the name by my standards.…

urahara on 4% off BYD Vehicles Purchased Through a Novated Lease @ BYD Australia

Unlikely to be for quite a while. Proper 7 seater is going to be a large vehicle which hinders aerodynamics and increases weight so…

SanguinarySeraph commented on Galax GeForce RTX 5080 16GB Graphics Card $2049 Delivered ($0 VIC, NSW, SA C&C) @ Centre Com
Decent for a SFF build, but this variant is light on cooling so maybe hold out if temps/noise are a priority. Still, cheapest 5080 in a…

skid on Galax GeForce RTX 5080 16GB Graphics Card $2049 Delivered ($0 VIC, NSW, SA C&C) @ Centre Com

Depends on supply and demand - the 4080 Super was widely considered what the 4080 should have always been, slight bump in performance and a…

Coolkid21 on Palit GamingPro V1 GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB Graphics Card $1409 Delivered ($0 VIC, NSW, SA C&C) @ Centre Com

Correct - the initial launch pricing was subsidised by AMD. Not impossible for it to get back down to launch RRP, but it would require it…

Dogsrule on Breville Dual Boiler Espresso Machine BES920 $1,079.10 Delivered @ Breville

This is correct. The boiler will come to temp pretty quickly but you’re looking at 10 ish mins for the group head/portafilter to…

HolyFosh on Arctic P12 Max PWM 120mm White PC Case Fan $9 + Delivery ($0 VIC C&C) @ PC Case Gear

These are likely to be better than pretty much all included case fans, however you’re certainly into diminishing returns territory. I’d…

Sure is, and has an Australia mode where everything is covered in Australian flags and gunshots all get changed to ‘Bugger!’ Which is…

SanguinarySeraph commented on Heat Pump or not Heat Pump (Dryer)
Heat pump is the way to go. Will take longer than a vented dryer, but typically 2hrs or less is probably reasonable. They are massively…

Big claims in the headlines, but just not happening here. It’s US$27000 before the government rebate, which equates to AU$42000 and…

Exactly this. High latency, High bandwidth.

If you're dropping to 5/1, you should look at changing provider. Some level of dropoff is acceptable...not that.

FabMan on [PC, Steam] The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered $70.50, Deluxe Edition $82.95 @ Fanatical

I'd normally agree, but given it's a remaster of a nearly 20 year old game, and pretty similar to Skyrim that's been around for 15+ and had…

Same IKEA 365+ range which I’ve had great success with in the past. 32cm wok pan and frypan. The design has changed (not unexpected after…

My previous IKEA ones were great, lasted years, but had to replace earlier this year and the new ones are woeful, pretty much done already.

As far as actual grinding goes, the SGP isn’t as bad as popular opinion makes it out. It isn’t very consistent though so to get best…

Both. They changed the naming convention to more closely align with nVidia - this is basically the successor to the 7800XT. It's also true…
