Thanks very much! Yes, would recommend - it can be a bit of fun planning it out too.

That's a great idea! I don't like how the clip eats up display at the top - it should be possible to have this more compact, like e.g. Logitech's top of monitor mounts. Would be nice if they had a hinge on it so that it could

See above; I sympathise completely, was not happy with how my camera was positioned before. It's not perfect, but nonetheless a huge improvement.

Agree, it's really good for a webcam given enough light. Without enough light, it turns extremely mediocre - but that's what I've controlled for - and applies to ALL cameras. (A pro camera would make bad lighting less bad,

I use multiple studio lights (Key Light, Key Light Air) for three point lighting. One of the two Hue bars is positioned behind my head up high for adding highlights to hair, headphone, the other lights up area behind my back. Check out yout

The RØDE Microphones NT-USB Mini would be a great step up from that, comes highly recommended. (I have one in the household.) Also the AT2020 is a classic, but I haven't used it myself. I have a plethora Audio Technica headphones thoug

I just got a Flexible Gooseneck Arm clamp mount like this: https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B082HQJ1JX/ I've got three large QHD 32"s and a 24" on top on aluminum profile. The arm comes in

I've put some effort into my setup in the past 24 months; multiple Elgato and Hue lights, a Streamdeck for macros and scene control, condenser microphone on an arm with an audio interface, OBS studio etc. I am not a streamer, but I&#x2

Ha ha, perfect - you both summed up the hellhole that is Facebook commenting so well.

Yes, I researched this for evaluating my son's previous school - there's a sharp drop off even from the 10-20-30 metre range to the 100-150 metre one, and things like wind directions certainly matter. AusGov in their infinite wisd

I used Cydia many a year ago (in 2009) when I had the iPhone 3GS. If I recall correctly, the root I had to apply to be able to get it installed also allowed me to get your backgrounder plus sbsettings mods - thus getting real multitasking w

There are numerous studies on the myriad bad health effects of PM2.5. The sooner we can transition to EVs, the better.

It's super interesting to see that Australia doesn't hold a monopoly on having completely brain-dead anti systemic thinking people in charge of developing environmentally friendly sustainability policies.

There are indeed large ranges of highly valid reasons why having phone/ Internet connectivity is highly critical. But sure, "post duck photos". I understand it was perhaps meant as a paraphrase, yet it is indicative of an alm

Yes, I'm flabbergasted by a lot of the responses. I've kept clinging on to the idea that everyone must have a moral compass, but the last few years are really hitting home that I may be in a minority to have such clear ideas about

It's huge in Australia. Big Coal/Fossil has its fingers deep into government and apparently no-one thinks this is bad. We're still approving new coal and gas projects in 2021, and milage taxing EVs with not a CO² vehicle tax

With ~90% efficacy, how do you expect that to work when rolling the dice thousands of times? It's a heck of a lot better than none. And sadly people still don't care to treat Covid seriously, and nowhere near high enough vaccinati

Oops I completely mixed up ages here with Betty White, another person doing exceptionally well that I just looked up. Thanks for the correction; doing all that at 90 is still pretty good.

Yep, age is all about your fitness in the closing chapters of life. And a 99 year old guy just beamed into space!

Kudos. Exactly. They'd be looking for eg free range whenever possible, and also possibly aim for a more balanced diet.

Yep. I've only done so once, well my brother did the shooting whilst I held the rabbit down then helped prep to skin them. Meeting the meat was also a reference to the Restaurant at the End of the Galaxy; there, the meat would kill its

I don't think you're wrong. Ignorance is bliss, sometimes. If everyone had to meet the meat before their meals, we'd be able to bring consumption right down. (And by that I'd include the whole impact of cow breeding on t

It's gotten to the point where if you leave an honest review of a bad experience you might face a defamation lawsuit. I wish I was joking, but: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-03-20/before-you-write-that...

IANAL but have been through the material in compliance training: I'm reasonably sure that this would be illegal according to Australian consumer laws. You can't advertise a price as having a discount if it was never sold at the hi

$776x1.1 (for my build, see sibling comment) is $853 - well short of the $956 charged.

$500... that was still of interest. Until I saw that the pen is not included in the price. And then the price of the pens -$170 for the version with an eraser (how could you use it without!?). I'm always adding a leather case to my dev
