That's a pretty small use case, if you're using it 'to use it' you'd be better using & learning something else because Broadcom will more…

No. Because the reason to use this license is to learn ESXi, but when most of the industry is moving to other solutions, not much point in…

The Value on Seagate 24TB BarraCuda Internal 3.5" Hard Drive (ST24000DM001) US$280.49 (~A$439) + US$39 Shipping (~A$61) @ Newegg eBay

Yeah, I duno what I'd do without all my Linux Distro ISO's! I need all of them!

Most everyone I've spoken to is planning on moving away from ESXi, we've been with ESXi since we stated, we just got our renewals, and…

Nah, nice try, it's free until they lure you back in and then make it paid again! Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me!…

Nah, Nintendo do offer good value, they're hands down the best games developer in the world.

Nah, they've had SOME deals. But honestly, saving 10% is probably a deal given how tight Nintendo are with their pricing.

Zaitronics on ESP32 38-Pin Wi-Fi + Bluetooth Development Board $4.80 + $3 Delivery (Free with Order Over $100) @ Zaitronics

But that one is full price! 😂🤣 Sadly, that's gotta be a pass from me.

Are these USB-C, or Micro-USB?

Shermanpk posted a forum topic Power Monitor with Logging?
I'm wondering if anyone can suggest a power monitor that also has some kind of data logging, be it a Micro SD or connecting it to wifi or…

Rysta on Sennheiser HD 450BT Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones (Black) $159 (Was $319) + $5.99 Delivery ($0 C&C/ In-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi

To be fair the Sony Mics are pretty awful.

Better or worse then Sony WH-1000MX4/WH-1000MX5?

From what I've seen these HP desktops can draw under 12w (I've seen as low as 6-8w reported)*. Depending on the N100 it can get as low as…

What's your power consumption like, if you know? I've seen as low as 8w reported of idle?

The Value on [Refurb] HP EliteDesk 800 G3 SFF Desktop PC i5-7500 8GB RAM 256GB SSD Win 11 Pro $120 + $25 Delivery @ Technology Locker

What's your reasoning? Is it just that Win 11 in not supported? Because there are a lot of uses that don't need Windows to be supported.…

I went the other way and got a used enterprise POE Switch (that was actually power efficient) for about $200 and has 48 ports as well as…

Anyone want to explain why I might want this, over say an old smart phone, Raspberry Pi, or PC?

Do you need a Samsung Phone for it, or will any Android work?

My wife had me go to (profanity) WAR for one of these things! I carried one out and to the car on my own, it's not so much the weight as…

Probably depending on what stock they have. Get rid of the stuff they have more stock of.

Sorry, I don't have any, anymore. It was months ago. I got them from Ali-Express. Quality was fine. I got two, one that will do 100W USB-C…

I had gotten a similar device to this one, but mine had 3x USB-C and a USB-A rather than this one's 3x USB-A.

McMaferMur on Ueetop 175W Gan USB-C 6-Port Charger AU Plug US$24.85 (~A$45.08) Delivered @ UEETOP Choice Store AliExpress

It can depend on the cable sometimes, but typically a cable being plugged in on only one end won't have any effect.
