I played Dragon's Dogma recently (albeit on Switch) and really enjoyed it.

ace310 on Logitech K580 Slim Multi-Device Wireless Keyboard + Free Logitech LIFT Mouse $103.54 (CSC Price, $119.99 Without) @ Noel Leeming

I think we have different use-cases. I want to sit in one place, with one keyboard and mouse, and control different computers (or Android…

I agree they're not similar, but I disagree that the unifying dongle is better than Bluetooth. Here's my evidence: * A USB dongle requires…

Read the reviews for the POP keyboard. Consensus seems to be it looks good, but is a bit of a pain to use; It might have 5 emoji keys, but…

Sounds awesome. Enjoy your car. Maybe I'll join the club soon too

Thank you. I like learning new things. After all this I can actually imagine the day when I might buy one. Depends how much my wife can…

Thanks for the comprehensive answer.

Thanks for the heads up. I also like [this Bluetooth "pop"…

You have excellent point about ev having "no" ongoing costs. Do Teslas not have regular "servicing"?

I'm not committed to the second hand car market. I'd also accept a cheap new car.

I guess it's just a different attitude to money. I always buy second hand and run them into the ground. My most recent was a 2006 model…

The obsession with credits in referral links smacks of the worst kind of pyramid selling. Not to be trusted

You are being totally ripped off. Anyone trying to charge 70k plus for a private vehicle is a straight up criminal, taking advantage of the…

boldbilly commented on Price Match Hacks? Questionably unethical
So everything under $47 is free? And you can do this repeatedly? That crosses a line for me.

Link now lists no results. I guess they sold out of everything

EDIT: I've just noticed that Elgato have a sale on all their products on Amazon AU. The "Elgato Wave XLR" is 47% off, for example.

A device to help automating your life. Awesome for streaming, but also for Home Automation (see [this video for…

ps5 digital seem to have sold out for now

The frames on the zenni glasses I bought never gave me a problem. Personally, not "branded" is a huge plus for me. I don't like being an…

If you want to roll some dice you could try the Chunghop K380-EW. http://en.chunghop.com/wap/productDetail?id=227 It's a universal aircon…

I built one myself for about $20. Bought an ESP8266, an IR LED, and hooked it up to the IRremoteESP8266 library by crankyoldgit. A great…

I was happy with the bifocals I bought from "Eleccion Official Store" on AliExpress.

boldbilly commented on Ideas for What to Do with Whitcoulls Gift Card
How about a good boardgame? Carcassonne and Codenames are both fun, and have simple rules.

Swappy on [Switch] 51 Qubic Games for US$0.49 ea. (~NZ$0.78) @ QubicGames via Nintendo eShop (US Account Required)

Tax is done by state, not time zone. Oregan is tax free, so find an address there. Like Youshop :-)

Blazing Beaks is great. I can also recommend the bit trip games and Rekt. Wrecking Ball Adventure entertained me for a good while, but…

Organisations that expire gifts really annoy me. It's so incredibly consumer-unfriendly. See also photobookshop.co.nz (who I otherwise…

$2499 for 65" OLED, for those who can't be bothered clicking the link. Mine was $6800 when I bought it in 2016. No regrets. I'm still in…
