We got a heatpump dryer last year for the first time in about a decade as we had no where to dry clothes (yet) in the new house. The lint…

I'm intrigued as to why anyone would possibly need anything close to 2TB on a _tablet_. Which probably also makes me old. I guess they fill…

Do you know what? I just worked out the weird metal rainbow dribble pattern says "PRO". Bless my years.

Yeah it's just lightly wiping a cloth across the floor. But with some decent cleaning liquid, the pump setting at max and a 2x pass it does…

There are some very thoughtful design elements in this (things like the transparent channel to the bag so you can see if it's blocked and…

The memory in these is an internal MicroSD card. Easily removable. And there's multiple guides online on how to correctly setup a much…

Kobo have their own book store. And, if it's your thing, you may be able to borrow books for free from your library straight to the device…

annoyingly i bought one of these last week. Set up with the Libby app I'm borrowing books from my local library. Can't borrow magazines…

It wants a lot of info from you - name, phone, email, address, DOB

yes, https://calyxos.org/ Even on an old, low-range phone I'm using for it, I'm blown away. First smartphone I've ever had that actually…

different types of rechargeables discharge differently too

CalyxOS is also a good alternative. Bet it would fly on one of these.

I've a similar unit. It doesn't do colour, scan, fax, staple, copy, email, NFC, A3, CDs, photos, online print, order itself new toner,…

And I'm still on the hunt for a NFC payment ring, assuming it's some batshit legal reason we're not allowed them

Doesn't matter how many Aussies go with the anti-China EV nonsense, they're good. Even Ford's CEO is shitting himself…

Depends how many times you want to stop at the lights and have an Uber passenger get in
04/07/2025 - 13:59
G84 will still be getting some updates if you want to run CalyxOS on it
03/07/2025 - 18:16
which is about $94.98 more than anyone should pay for that stuff

Never buy SD cards from anyone that advertises them on eBay. Amazon (if making sure sold by Amazon) or a bricks & mortar store. Anything…
