    Samsung Galaxy S23

    Updated. Tiny glass-y effects here and there, some extra dialogue boxes for settings, an extra animation on app opening from the notification tray. Alright. Unfortunately, my slight delay in the app manager is still here :( -- but everything else feels a tad more fluid and snappier.

    Ordering off Aliexpress? Advice?

    My last 8 orders since the previous post here have all been delivered with speedaf, thought the the Post Office was eventually dropped entirely but maybe I just got extremely lucky 😅 All in the range of 15-35% paid of the value of what I ordered, most with "free delivery" which includes last...

    How every R100 in tax you pay is spent in South Africa

    Funny way to write how R90 ends up in the gravy train

    home Alarm tripping

    yeah pretty much sadly (and I hope they last just as long), I was recommended and bought Takex 90⁰ and 180⁰ PIR depending on the area required, Alarm in the Box has them for slightly cheaper than most and definitely cheaper than a lot of installer prices.

    home Alarm tripping

    Looks like the same old ones on my home, I've slowly had to change around one a year recently as they're just at their EoL. Nothing I could accomplish, though I had one of them trigger excessively from an ant nest that built inside. Same symptoms so I assume the sensitivity is rocked after a...

    Mini PC for Fusion360..? Will this work?

    I know we hate Evetsek but I would get this for the same price if possible: https://www.evetech.co.za/minisforum-ai-x-1-255-ryzen-7-mini-pc/best-deal/23830 Newer chip with two extra cores, slightly faster iGPU (but both on parity), and you can use the Oculink port down the line for a dedicated...

    Independent data from various sources suggests that Amazon.co.za's orders have surged in 2025

    Really impressed, I know they're in the 'cornering the market' stage so I take advantage of it, got really good deals on two appliances, a charger, some consumables and all with free shipping in usually a day or two, from JHB to KZN. Takealot can't even get here that quick from DBN warehouse...

    Ordering off Aliexpress? Advice?

    Hmm, it's true but it honestly looks random with every seller on there, even with identical products. Like Temu, definitely larger box volume items scale price exponentially to cover that shipping and high priced items conveniently offer far cheaper courier costs. Bummed the choices are so...

    Ordering off Aliexpress? Advice?

    I don't see it that way in this specific order. If I had to pay for shipping with Ali first then again with SpeedAf or pay one but deliver to the post I wholeheartedly agree. This is what I would've ended up paying Scott to bring similar priced items to my door, and it's certainly 6x cheaper...

    Ordering off Aliexpress? Advice?

    So, they still have UPS / FedEx / DHL etc. as bonafide shipping options on some items that's usually terribly expensive, but using Ali Standard shipping goes to a coin toss whether SAPO or SpeedAf / Meili handles it, my previous two order were SAPO on an order that was free and one that cost a...

    Ordering off Aliexpress? Advice?

    Ended up being R300, it is steep but I reckoned a quote with TCG + VAT + handling (on a 'Free Delivery' order) kinda seems reasonable for this order? At least it arrived in two weeks straight to my door, might've worked out similarly to Scott. For the other orders here though, definitely...

    Ordering off Aliexpress? Advice?

    My latest order, an LED strip + driver (R535) is getting delivered with SpeedAF, let's see how this ends up.

    Wha...? Anyways, there's always Podman, LXC, containerd or anything you can meld with squashfs by hand.
