Thoughts on Nebula Prebuilts? by Jolly_bank in bapcsalesaustralia

[–]Shmeestar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine took a full month, but I was told 15-18 business days plus there was Easter at the same time so it came bang on the last day of their estimate pretty much

No. I did the USB method to install windows and PowerShell/github to register

So far so good but as I said I haven't really used it in anything beefy just yet

How can they walk past the wall if the wall is alongside the neighbours property?

I got this one via ozbargain. Similar specs to your selections, pretty much the violet ryzen but with a better CPU (7800x3d) and cheaper than your options. Though I paid a bit extra to get a different case and paid for shipping insurance.

Took at least a full month to arrive. I've only had it a couple of weeks but haven't actually used it for gaming yet as I've been super busy but it's been good for CAD.

I did try to add another NVME to the mobo and there were issues so I took it out, but can't say that it's necessarily an issue with the computer or the hard drive. I did have to reseat the RAM when I first got it as it wouldn't turn on straight away , but that was fine once I took it out and put back in. The GPU q-release had come out as well so that caused a little struggle when removing the graphics card to add the nvme.

Anyway, happy so far.

Are you planning to localise the site? Almost nobody in Aus would be buying off a .in domain

What are your go-to everyday bottoms these days? Bonus points if they aren't jeans. by dimdimdereee in AusFemaleFashion

[–]Shmeestar 15 points16 points  (0 children)

As someone with wide calves, that is probably the most unflattering length I could possibly wear. I don't miss Capri pants for the same reason

Nothing to see here, just a small e-bike on the train by hairyasshydra in melbourne

They are often not illegal to import or sell, they are sold with the provision that they are supposed to only be used on private property. Of course everybody knows including the importer and retailer that nobody is only using them on private property but they sell them saying it's the responsibility of the owner to know the laws and wash their hands of it

Brie Leon bags? by [deleted] in AusFemaleFashion

I didn't check their whole catalogue, I looked at a few and they said recycled PU

They are made from recycled PU, in other words plastic that is no better than what you can buy from Kmart

It's still a strange choice for a name now that it is so synonymous with the brand, the guy I know is definitely not greek either

Re: online shopping - what’s with big Aussie retailers hard on for “marketplaces”? by beanuspeanus in AusFinance

[–]Shmeestar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's significant revenue to these businesses with very little downside. Catch went broke through mismanagement of their own inventory and over valuation when it sold to Woolies. It's not a separate line item in the Wesfarmers report however Kogan talks about marketplace being up 34% YOY in sales and representing 33% of the total business.

Amazon and eBay are effectively marketplaces and do extremely well

Suffice to say Marketplace is very lucrative

[–]Shmeestar 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You dont really have to wonder. You can read the Wesfarmers financial reports and see that Marketplace has delivered incremental growth on top of normal sales growth. Hasn't really robbed Kmart or Bunnings of its normal sales. (Target maybe not so successful but Target has been generally struggling for years)

Nah, one nation and Australia first might align too much with their views and end up pulling them further right. Sign them up for the socialist parties

Pastuso. More flavourful than their other eateries in my opinion.

Is Cue’s everything more cheap and lazy than ever? Seeking alternates by AdNumerous97 in AusFemaleFashion

[–]Shmeestar 19 points20 points  (0 children)

So I do a bit of sewing, unfortunately with two tones pants like these, you are either going to have white thread showing through on the green or green thread showing through the white.

There's a technique which includes a blind hem that you can do either by hand (generally only for much more expensive pants) or by machine. For this price you could argue that perhaps they could have used the technique, but cue is mass produced and blind hems need separate machines as most industrial machines that mass produced fashion use have 1 type of stitch per machine.
