Hi all,

I'm not into astronomy myself, but my wife recently bought a Celestron Regal M2 80ED (the 80mm ED angled spotting scope, comes with the 20–60x zoom eyepiece) primarily for birding. She's mentioned she'd love to use it for some casual stargazing too — and I'd like to get her a quality eyepiece as a gift.
We live in the forest outside of the main city and get good clear skies from our driveway/deck at times and we have access to wider skies not far from home with decent light pollution levels.

A few things the ai has (apparently) helped me work out so far:

- The scope has a standard 1.25" eyepiece mount, so any astronomy 1.25" eyepiece will fit
- The erecting prism means terre

Hi,

I got my wires crossed and thought that to sign up as a Qantas frequent flyer to earn points I needed to pay a membership fee and that this was $99 through Qantas or $50 through Anz, I now realise this is for their lounge membership and frequent flyer is free membership is free ><

I signed up for a ANZ Frequent flyer Black card and got approved last week, during the application I ticked No to being a qantas member, expecting that they would give me the option to sign up. I got the card today, I haven’t activated it but there’s no mention of signing up as a Qantas member in the letter..

I’m now worried I’m not going to be able to get my free 90,000 points

Should I sign up as a member

VIC based. I'm looking to try MC for the first time for insomnia, anxiety and depression, I'm on other medication that I'm unhappy with and have smoked in the past with mostly good effects but also some paranoia and initial anxiety. I have tried pure cbd oil with no noticeable effect.

I'd like to try both a Sativa strain and a Indica strain in leaf form and a THC/CBD oil (ideally one in sativa and one in indica as well) to experiment with what works best for me at different times of the day.

I'm just wondering how realistic it is to be able to get 3 or 4 different products like this on an initial consult? And looking for any advise on what to say and not to say?

I am leaning towards Cando

For those who have it and have been using it for the past day or 2(and particular those with a wheel/rig setup) - Do you think this will now replace your tv/monitor set up? Or do you feel it's something you'll just use occasionally?

All the reaction videos appear to have a lot of "wow, this is so much better" type commentary which sounds really positive and is making me consider getting one but if it's tiring for long sessions and you end up just going back to the tv then it might be a waste

So I stumbled across the Acer EI491CURS here in Australia. It's 5120 x 1440p 120hz, comes with a remote and has 2 displayports, 1800r curve

That tick's all my boxes, is cheaper than the AOC and doesn't come with things I don't need like a KVM (I have 3 computers and so I'm going to need to go with a standalone KVM) but I can find next to no info on it. It's listed on a number of Aussie retailers sites and there's one video review (from an Aussie) but nothing listed on Asus' website.

Anyone know if this is listed under a different model overseas? I see there was a 1080p version more widely available but this one is 1440p

Any info appreciated!

We are considering purchasing a property on a sloping site that has a large deck and a bunch of rooms under the deck and part of the house, the main, large room is fully lined and has been used as a reptile breeding enclosure.. It's like the reptile house at the zoo, built in rock walls with glass, phase 3 power and heatlamps, it's got plumbing, a seperate kitchen sort of area and windows out to the rest of the property. It appears to be fully dry, they have put roofing, with gutters under the decking/ontop of the rooms.

I am not a lizard breeder but I do work from home and a deciding factor on whether we put an offer in is if we could convert this into an office space. It's a great size an

This year I made a gain on ABB and vas and a loss on vdhg (and some other losses on eToro but I'm not expecting them to come through). I've been holding off on doing my tax return until any possible prefill info comes through.

I have VDHG distributions that have come through now, will the ABB & VAS gains and vdhg losses from closing the positions automatically come through at any point or do I need to just do those manually?
(no issue doing them, just in no rush to do my return and being lazy if they're going to automatically come through at some point)

Thanks!

I'm currently on dim 6 and considering upgrading to 7

I see the patch notes about usb devices no longer being supported, is this for software/usb sticks etc or is the power to the USB ports actually disabled?.
I currently have a usb fan plugged into the nas to provide cooling in my tv cabinet when the nas is on. Will this still work?

Thanks

Hi team,

Currently my partner (10years/defacto) and I have about 20k each in shares, the rough breakdown in our self wealth accounts are:

Her:
VDHG: 17k (purchasesd for 20k)

Me:
VDHG: 10k
VAS: 4k (purchased for 5k)
Cash: 5k (currently I have a buy order for vdhg at a lower price then it currently is)

• We regret splitting our investment funds across the two accounts and would like to consolidate it all into my account.
• We would ideally like to sell the VAS and have 50/50 VDHG/DHHF
• I had a large capital gain (about 8k gain) off ABB earlier in the tax year, these shares were in my name, I am keen to reduce the tax implications as much as possible.
• I of course nee

I ordered the Clubsport Shifter sq v 1.5 last week and it's due to arrive in the next few days. I was going to purchase some pedals second hand locally but I can't find any appropriate and I want to be set up for GT7 so I'm looking at ordering the Clubsport v3's new from Fanatec directly (with the break performance kit)

My shifter hasn't arrived yet but I'm wondering if Fanatec ever include a "thank you for your purchase, here's a x% off your next purchase" type coupon when they ship stuff? If so then I'm thinking I might wait for the Shifter to arrive.

I'm in Australia if that means anything btw

Thanks!

I cannot seem to find anything online about this but it appears there's a new model of the Challenge which has an "ActiFit" material instead of the Alcantara.

Has anyone seen or tried the new model? I'm about to buy my first sim racing setup and decided on the Challenge but here in Australia almost everywhere is only stocking this new ActiFit model.

From this 22 second video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_0z1LIz1A4)it looks to be a breathable mesh material. Breathable sounds good but I did quite like the look of the Alcantara, I think my cats will enjoy using something with mesh like holes as a scratching post and I'm unsure how i

Hi, before I purchase. Can anyone comment on the performance of the ps5 version? Is it 4K?

I’m keen to watch some older seasons but I can only seem to find really low quality episodes which look terrible on a big 4K tv.

Were these older seasons ever released at a decent definition? I’m specifically keen on season 10 to begin with

Thanks!
