That'll get tested soon enough. No way you're selling 3 year SIM plans to go with an outright phone and not having customers quoting ACL…

Does also mean that your handset is warrantied for a minimum of 3 years though.

Yeah maybe. On an unboxing vid for this that I've seen there was a US adaptor in the box. But I know the EU are keen on not including them.…

On the contrary. By binning all my jocks annually in one go (and socks by the way) I am able to buy in bulk, at multibuy prices, the true…

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.

That's a common issue with that model year. Take it back to Texaco and have them swap the timing belt too.

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…

cork mat ftw

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…

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

This or a Kobo (primarily thinking of Libby)?

That and self-hosting Mastodon or whatever so their kids get some sense of being online before they get thrown into it at Uni

There's only one person who's ever paid full price for PIA. And he also bought a WinRAR licence.

Once someone pointed out to me that the arches themselves always have a 5-10cm "flat" bit right at the edge I couldn't stop noticing it.…

the lane departure warning can be turned off. but yeah.

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

G84 will still be getting some updates if you want to run CalyxOS on it

which is about $94.98 more than anyone should pay for that stuff
