Thread 106289060

Everything is already from China, but here we discuss the cheap chink shit you see on various sites.
1st rule of /csg/: If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.

Like other anon said, polarized lenses are meant to block horizontal light, you can test it with water or whatever (as it's what it's meant for), but easiest is just a screen
>>106288937
Mine is actually exactly 90 degrees turned, so black when looking at a screen but normal when turning head completely sideways
I guess the sheet they got or whatever was just turned and they cut it wrong

>>106289060 (OP)
Good thread, but why do I have to wait 2 minutes to post now?

>>106289358

>>106290162
Just keep in mind that some screens have their polarization filter rotated by 45 or even 90 degrees.

posting again since the last thread died right after i posted it.
why are the reviews for practically every item blocked for me like this? i'm in the US.
is chang blocking me from seeing bad reviews or something?

>>106290504
I tried it on my phone and two screens, if it IS oriented correctly, I guess I get well made sunglasses for free lol

Native PS4 (or PS5, or Xbox) support requires certification, and for Playstation it's essentially just overpriced Razer, Turtle Beach, and Nacon for third party controllers.
I believe you're able to use whatever you want via PS Remote Play or through something like a Brook or Mayflash adapter otherwise.

there's this thing called the "easter show" in my country where every easter they hold a sort of fair/convention and sell "show bags" which are goodie bags filled with toys and candy. toys are all cheap chinkshit. sometimes they'd sell like $80 bags and you'd just get more of it.

Just got a new apartment, any cool/useful household stuff I should get from ali?

>>106293927
Doesn't have to be ali, but do yourself a favor and get a robot vacuum.
Absolute game changer. No more having to vacuum or sweet the flat twice a week. Flat always clean enough you can have someone over without feeling ashamed. It's great.

>>106294119
or just don't care.

>>106294180
Been there, done that. Eventually you grow older and it starts bothering you, having a decently clean flat is just nicer to live in. An improvement of quality of life that you don't have to spend time for is just a nice thing to have.

Just got my Essager 65W GaN flat wall charger
This is a lot smaller than I was expecting and way more travel-friendly than my previous Anker 65W chode-block charger

No, every time i have some friends over i would need to hide it in closet
>>106294119
What should i look for when choosing one? I heard cheap ones are shit and get stuck on things. I was looking at getting a stick vacuum.
>>106294127
If there are any good oil paintings I would get some.
>>106294158
I already ordered xiaomi air fryer.

Do these things actually reach the 240W and 40Gbps specs?
Not that I'd ever use it at those limits but for the <$5 asking price, having a shorter cable for my power banks might be useful

>>106294374
>What should i look for when choosing one?
The one thing that truly matters and decides if your vacuum will be fine or suck, is a LIDAR sensor. Without it the vacuum is essentially blind and will run into shit and get stuck. With it it'll map out your apartment, calculate its own path and navigate even complex areas (under kitchen counters, between a table with many chairs at it where all the legs are blocking areas off).
Cheaper vacuums will be fine for vacuuming, more expensive ones usually come with a larger "hub" that they pump the dirt into so you have to empty it as often. Nice to have, but really optional.
Some of the more expensive vacuums can also mop, again, nice to have but optional. The cheap ones will also claim to mop but it'll suck ass to the point where it's not worth using.
Lastly I've seen some new ones come with legs that they can use to get up smaller ledges, depending on your apartment layout that may or may not be a killer feature.

TL;DR: Lidar is a must, read reviews to find a decent one.

>>106294374
I got an Abir X8 from Ali at the start of last year and I love it.
My aunt got one as well after she saw it and it's working great.

Do post a review when you get something.

>>106294227
how older do you exactly grow cause I'm 35 and I still couldn't give less fucks

>>106294591
Probably depends on the person. I started accepting that it's nicer to have a (reasonably) clean flat towards the latter half of my 20s.

>>106295195
>why would I care about it when all if my life is either online or outdoors
Leaving the fact aside that it probably shouldn't be, you still have to move through your flat and use it. Go to the kitchen and cook, go to the bath and shower, go on the toilet. All nicer if the rooms you use aren't filthy.

>>106295211
it's just dust. it's not like there's trash around.

>>106295225
I see no reason dust is more or less bad than trash, unless the trash actively smells. Neither should be in your flat.

>>106291248

Alright Anons, what should I buy during the upcoming sales? Give me ideas.

>>106296243
Backups/a second unit of things you've bought in the past and have enjoyed using

Fellas, what's the best alternative to mixza? I need a new sd card for my switch

this Fiio cable worth the price? I currently have one that fits my needs but Ive heard fiio is a reliable trusted brand and I'd like the backup

>>106296467
Sandisk, samsung, lexar, or kingston and PNY if you want a cheaper price

Holy fuck these discounts are ridiculous. Basically paid less for the entire set than I would for the head and handle alone. I think I stacked the piggybank credits, coupons and coins on this one order.

>>106296592
Okay here's the full summary. I think the hardest discount haul I've ever hit on anything.

>>106296592
hey man shouldn't you wait like a few hours until the sale starts

>>106296780
But it did start here already, it's already nearing 3AM and Ali seems to operate per-timezone.

it sure is nice of ali to show you future sales discounts on items so you can wait a few days to save money.
not really sure why they do that, honestly. i guess they save money on shipping when there's a large volume coming at once so they can pack their shipping crates full?

>>106296796
that's weird. i'm in one of the most forward timezones and it starts in 6 hours

>>106296928
Probably worth it for AliEx to not have to deal with people asking about price adjustments and clogging up customer service

>>106296386
Good rational idea.

Now, who buying an excavator?

>>106296928
Yeah given how much they like to hype up all the sales they, and by extension the sellers, wager on a larger order volume for the profit By the end of the day they'll push more products, which means they'll earn more.

>>106296946
Norwegian anon bought one for his forest yard years ago

How does the return process work? Doesn't seem like they do the old disputes anymore. They just want me to return. How long does it take to get the refund?

>>106295623
Yeah, I'm pretty sure the coupon codes that start with IFP are affiliate codes.
I wonder how much he has made by posting here. I don't care that much, I've been using them.

>>106297534
they've never worked for me or they were just the same discount as the one you could see on the website itself.

>>106298787
I use them because they can be used unlimited times or sometimes when there aren't any sales coupons available.

>>106297496
if you're a good boy, instantly on send

>>106298851
Best boys get refunds without sending anything back.

Not used aliexpress in a while.
The prices shown when not logged in are all just NEW USER OFFER, search now sucks, random shit in tabs will just go to some random obnoxious "offer" page & worse of all is random tax and shit is added after you put ur details and shit in to pay.
Anyway, whats the current code meta and what random shit should I get? I'm mostly just after stupid meme decorations for crocs and a fake pair for my excess stupid charms. May as well get a bunch of random shite too.

Every fucking time I open an item in a new tab to look at, it just sends it to that bundle page.

>>106297534
the ifp codes are good when they work for all items. currently they only work for "coupons applicable" limited items

>>106290551
Nah, this happens to me and they'll randomly come back eventually. The website is just shit.
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity

are those blu-ray burners/readers good? wanna get something to archive my stuff for my home media server

>>106294422
Pretty much any short cable should be fine, and they'd probably be cheaper than this.

>>106296013
As long as it doesn't look like a child you should be fine, but you should still check just in case.

>>106299253
has anyone actually had a no return refund recently, cause like other anons said it seems to have disappeared.

>>106299618
Clearing cookies usually works in making the site more usable

>>106299703
I haven't had to do that in so long I totally forgot that was a thing.

I want into cheap chink shit, I tried to create an account on aliexpress since they have a "back to school" sale going on and a youtuber I watch has shared a few coupons, but upon first login the account got instantly locked and now I'm always brought to a page where I can dispute the block. The fuck do I do? How do I create an account without getting insta locked?

Ordered a heaphone from banggood. Did i do something stupid? Never really ordered from chinese websites before. Its just that i combined a 2 coupons and got the thing for like 30 bucks cheaper. My worry is that im going to get something thats shit. Maybe they are mad that i basically got the item for 30 dollars cheaper and now they will fuck me over. Maybe they are selling me a fake item? Is banggood reliable?
Yes i know its in the guide but still. I never really order from chinese shops but i thought i might aswell since its 30 bucks cheaper than the amazon alternative in my country which twas like 40 bucks cheaper than local alternatives but it was being sold by a sketchy seller so that wasnt a option. Wow i just checked a local prize comparison site and if i picked a local alternative it would have been around 70 dollars more expensive than what i paid at banggood. Thats pretty much why i always rely on amazon but this time there was a third party unknown seller involved. Anyways thats kind of why im worried. Im getting this item for a pretty good price compared to other alternatives and it makes me a little iffy because why is it so cheap? I mean it kind of gives you weird vibes.

>>106299724
>yet another anon (shadow) banned
It's super easy to make a new account that won't be banned by ali-not-so-express, just follow the instructions on this link:
https://www.temu.com/support/c3/how-to-create-a-temu-account-f-55-s-128.html

>>106299683
Yeah, but I also never received the item so that probably helped. 18650 Batteries, probably blown up by hootie fudge packers.

>>106300130
Those are Temu instructions, and they don't even mention anything more than "go to the sign up page".
The only things I cant think of that I did differently are: I used a pc instead of the app, I am using a VPN, I use Firefox with adblocker/noscript.
Should I go the normie route and create an account via the aliexpress app (does it even exist?)?

>>106300151
Probably just the vpn

>>106300129
what model is it?

is there anything in this order I could just get for considerably cheaper via chinks?

>>106300190
fiio ft1

>>106300205
>fiio ft1
didnt that get very good reviews everywhere

>>106300151
Pretty sure the anon in >>106300130 made a joke that you should use temu instead.
That being said, my guess is also the VPN.
If I were you I'd try to dispute the locking, if that doesn't work, make an account without VPN. Phone/app will work 100%, browser should work but no guarantees.
You can use an account created in the app in your browser later, so it's not like it's the end of the world.

>>106300213
Yeah thats kind of why i ordered it. Im just worried since i havent really spent this much on a chinese store before and ive heard some bad stuff about places like aliexpress. I do however know that this store doesnt use third party sellers. But still.

>>106300218
oh, the 'tism kicked in. I wanted to buy some higher capacity batteries for my LG cordless vacuum and Temu doesn't have them, that's why I'm going with Aliexpress.

>>106300202
Get Pine64 stuff from https://pine64.com. Even with the shipping and customs it'll be cheaper than anywhere else.
https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/Pinecil#Fasteners/Screws
The thumb screws you can also get from Ali.

>>106300202
See picrel.
Green is you can get it cheaper on aliexpress.
Multiple green circles mean you're increasingly retarded if you buy it for the prices you posted.
Yellow means you can get it for cheaper on aliexpress, but not the exact product, more likely a similar product or the cost difference will be very small so it's not a big deal to buy from either place.

>>106300233
For what it's worth I've bought from ali for many years and I've only had good experiences, so I think making an ali account is good and a no brainer. At the same time batteries (particularly cells, from your post it seems to be a battery module so slightly less of an issue there) is not the greatest thing to buy from ali as shipping often is slower, because batteries are essentially mini bombs and planes don't like to throw them into the pile the way other packages are tossed in.

>>106299633
>are those blu-ray burners/readers good?

Got myself a buffalo bruhd or whatever you call it. It works okay but definetly not at the advertised speeds. And yes i flashed it with that gay custom firmware you have to flash with.

>>106300257
>At the same time batteries (particularly cells, from your post it seems to be a battery module so slightly less of an issue there) is not the greatest thing to buy from ali as shipping often is slower
yes, expected delivery is mid-october, but the stock batteries are absurdly overpriced and don't last for shit. I haven't found anywhere else that sells compatible modules with higher capacity so that the piece of shit lasts for more than 10 minutes on a charge

>>106300404
Fair enough, just keep in mind that that's not normal for most purchases on ali. Batteries are an exception in that area.

>>106300424
yeah, I'm willing to bit the bullet just because I am not giving any more money to LG for this piece of shit vacuum. don't buy cordless vacuums bros, worst mistake of my life.

To be fair there's decent ones, they just cost unreasonably much. My parents got one by bosch, pretty decent, just overpriced as shit.
Personally I just have a cheap vacuum for cobwebs or shit higher up, but barely use it, since I got a robot vacuum I don't really need it much anymore. Highly recommended.

I got these last sale a month ago, they are complicated af to set up and get working right but feel amazing, theyre well known in simracing space for being good quality knockoffs.

i also got the gamesir t4 nova lite and do not recommend cause there was input delay when my coffee table was in between controller and receiver

just completed an order or two with a bunch of shit, pine64 solder, 3key macro pad with volume knob, wiring and random electronics parts, and usb drawing tablet.

>>106300548
Do you happen to know of any decent rudders for flying sims?

>>106300668

~$100 total. Stacked coupons and credits. Paid $0.03 spread over 3 orders.
Still have small bit of credits for more shit.

Thanks, for ~50 euros less than what I would've paid here I managed to get everything, swapped out the magnifying glass for one of those LCD microscope stands and also bought the batteries from >>106300233 and some wiiu gamepad replacement parts. Just need to see what the customs and VAT are for the pine order when it arrives, but it should be something like 10/15 EUR.
I think it was a good haul, perhaps could've saved a bit more if I spent more time searching, but I'm happy considering I was ready to pull the trigger for more than that.

>>106289301
It took a while to dry, but my 3 ant farms are done now.
Left is the aliexpress farm for 20€
Middle is a DIY ytong nest for ~8€
Right is a DIY grout nest for ~10€
Happy with how each of them turned out. Frankly, if you aren't interested in DIY, the bought nest is pretty good for the price, but the DIY route is super cheap and easy too. Just don't buy the expensive nests, those cost in the 60-200€ range and are a ripoff.

>>106301729
Glad to hear.
>perhaps could've saved a bit more if I spent more time searching, but I'm happy considering I was ready to pull the trigger for more than that
The moment you press that "order now" button, simply convince yourself that you got the optimal purchase and have done everything right. No point considering if you could have done something else once you can do nothing about it anymore. You'll be happier that way.

I’ve been playing around with SBC’s for the last couple of years. I gravitated towards using orange pi because they were much less expensive than raspberry pi and had more features. Recently the price is on Orange pi has almost doubled while the raspberry pi are back to pre pandemic pricing.
Are there any other SBC as I should be checking out instead? I’m mostly running 3B form factors for server and media devices.

>>106303260
Banana Pi BPI-RV2 looks interesting but is has low ram and on ali they don't sell a full kit

>>106303260
The orange pi boards with the rockchip RK3588 have almost full mainline Linux support now so there is finally a reason to buy them.

>>106303214
Yeah this makes it work, strange

>>106303465
I've had good luck with the OPi generally. Right now, I've 2 - 3B. One runs a 1T NAS, the other as a Silly Tavern server. Then a third 3 LTS running Kodi on a TV for displaying local media files from the NAS. Limited software issues; they aren't as easy at RPi (burn SD card, insert), but I've been able to get all of them working and they have additional features built in like eMMC and M2 slots.
When I bought them ~2023 they were super cheap; now all of them are more expensive. And every other variant (like >>106303380) is just as expensive and seems to have worse SW support.

>>106303465
Disregard this I suck cocks.
Individual boards with that chipset are being worked on but not the orange pi boards specifically. The one that's targeted is the ROK 5b and it's stupidly expensive

>>106303563
>Silly Tavern server
How exactly are you accomplishing that?
I also have a few OPi's lying around that I used to use as servers but I've since replaced it all with a N100.
>>106303579
>>106303465
>>106303260
OPis are kinda iffy at best, some random no-name alternatives are bound to be even worse.
I'd say Radxa makes some decent ones but you probably have heard of them before and I think they're even more expensive than Orange Pi.

>>106303719
> ST server
Like so: https://rentry.org/SillyTavernOnSBC
> Radxa
Yep. The general drift in SBC is towards bigger, more powerful, more power required, and more expensive. I already think eWaste computers are a better deal than most 3B (aside from size and power requirement) and the higher feature ones are even more silly.

Is it expensive and hard to do nsfw chats with that?
>>106303960
simple stuff like that is always where companies make the most profit, getting it from the chinks is usually way cheaper.

>>106303858
Perfectly adequate. NodeJS is heavy, but ST isn't that performance intensive. The biggest issue I have with it is the WiFi falling off the network, for whatever reason, which I "solved" by forcing a reboot every 24 hours. It runs along like this at 50C basically forever.

>>106304003
I pay for official DS API access. It runs about ~$1/mo and is effectively uncensored.

>>106304045
ffs, you're not really running shit on it then

>>106304064
Yeah I though he was talking about running LLMs on SBCs too, unfortunately I think local shit is not really that good even if you have a rtx 5090.
>>106304045
>>106304118
Hmm, that actually doesn't seem bad, thanks for the info.

>>106304188
Yeah lmao, I thought he got some ghetto PCIe adapter or something.
Anyways, I got a 1.3b model running on my N100 server with ollama and webui and it worked kinda ok but the rest of the shit I had running on it throtled to hell.
Think local is only gonna be decent after I replace my main PC's GPU and relocate it to a newer home server.

>>106304188
Nah, smaller LLMs can defo be run on CPU, but you need quite a bit of RAM even with low parameters (~1-3B) and quantization. I would recommend looking into vLLM (https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm) but it's for sure not gonna be plug and play

>>106304275
>>106304264
>>106304188
> LLM on SBC
Nothing that I'd find remotely interesting would run on an SBC.
Given the low cost of hosted LLMs and the bleeding edge of the technology, it's not worth buying equipment to run local inference at hobby scales.

Any recommendations for picrel? My car is quite old and doesn't have a screen in the dashboard, this thing looks decent for the price

>>106305012
>doesn't have a screen in the dashboard
And that's a good thing.
In all seriousness tho, I bought this https://aliexpress.com/item/4000804071719.html a few years ago and it works alright.
Wired android auto is flawless but the wireless one only works like 7 times out of 10 (have to turn toggle bluetooth on and off for it to work).
Got the "7 inch 2 32G CarPlay" version.

>>106304853
there's real figures on aliexpress, from the chinese domestic market, they don't hide brand names or the character they're supposed to be, buy from highly rated sellers, or better yet just get them from japanese retail sites, no chance of fakes.

>6 days from order to delivery

new record for the chinks from me.

>>106305059
this one looks like it has to be hard modded into the dashboard? The one I posted has a stand with adhesive that can just be placed on top of it which would be way less of a pain in the ass to mount

>>106305188
And how do you suppose you'll get the cables to connect your car speakers to this incredible stick-on unit? You think your old car will have wireless power and audio?
Cars have slots like that for a reason, you'll regret getting that thing, trust me.
Just buy one that fits into a DIN slot and take it to a local shop and have them install it for you.

Carpodgo is the meme one to get from Amazon.
Better screen. 1920 width, higher frame rate. Many generic devices are 1280 width and shit fps.
Better overall build quality. Many generic ones have basic cheap shit plastic. There are reviews of peoples devices deforming due to heat. Pretty bad if you live in a very hot region.
It has a magnetic back so some people have fashioned various sorts of custom mounts for it.
One negative is that it doesn't do screen mirroring or whatever.
It's a brand that tries to actually be a real brand rather than shitting out a product and then disappearing.
I bought this for someone else earlier this year. I'm not the main user so I can't endorse it first hand.
Just a data point for you to consider.

You forgot knife autists and flashlight autists. I know that I'm deep in the audio and coffee shit myself. Watches, knives and flashlights are basically solved hobbies so I didn't waste *too* much money on that. GW-M5610 for a watch, a Victorinox SAK of choice for EDC, Opinel No.8 for a folding knife and Morakniv Companion for a full knife, and a SST40 18650 chink flashlight of your choice.

>>106294422
I got one and it at the very least supports 100W, I doubt they would go for PD 3.0 and not just also support PD 3.1. As for speeds I don't know as you will only ever know it supports 40gb/s when you connect a displayport monitor (too short) or an egpu (probably also too short) so it doesnt really matter anyway whether its usb 4.0 or 3.2 for a cable this short.

To be fair, most of them are.
I know a lot more than I should about fishing, watches, shaving, flashlights, coffee and knives. The only thing that went past me thank God is the audiophile shit.
Honestly all of these are pretty much solved hobbies, except maybe fishing. Maybe coffee gets a pass, but even there you can make good coffee without obsessing over it easily.

>I have an analog display casio watch, but I want a backlight.
I own a timex weekender Indiglo, analog quartz watch that with the push of the button lights up the entire dial from the back with a nice, diffused light.
These days I wear a chinkshit mechanical watch usually and rely on the lume, but that's an option for you. The weekenders are pretty cheap to begin with, not chinkshit cheap, but definitely not a bad buy. Just note that using the glow function too often drains the battery fairly fast.

>>106306953
>>106306670

>Probably stolen when it was out for delivery.
Ah fuck I'm german and don't live in Berlin so I don't even consider that as an option. I've told all delivery companies to just leave my shit in front of the door, it's in the city but nothing was ever stolen by the time I got home.
If it was lost outside of the sellers control they might very well refuse. If they do, you'll still get your money back though.
I'd say if another seller sells it for a similar price, get it there, if not try again. Worst case the seller refuses and you get your money back. Is there an option to get like a P.O. box or something so it gets delivered safely?

Based chinks save my ears from turbulence created by shitty chinese cases manufactured by taiwanese chinks from lian li.

>Promo-codes don't work...
Fuck these scammers.

>>106312347
Honestly I'm not even sure it was stolen, usually what they do is put the package in the mailbox, take a picture and then steal it, so they have proof they did their job correctly. In my case it was out for delivery and it just disappeared so at least it will be an easy refund.
I think the only seller for this item in this specific size is the manufacturer, so I'll have to give it a try unless I buy something else instead.

>>106312495

Is following stores on the offchance you get a usable coupon actually worth it for cheaper (3-10$) items? I feel like I've never gotten one I could use, it's always like three or four times the cost of what I wanna buy

>>106313218
>Is following stores on the offchance you get a usable coupon actually worth it for cheaper (3-10$) items?
Depends on how much or little you value your time. I'm willing to say it's not worth it for 99.95% of users.
Personally I've never seen a worthwhile store coupon, unless you'd order like 8 medium priced items from there at once, and most stores sell one specific item (e.g. flashlights), I don't need 8 of those.
So the answer's no.

Small bundle arrived. I ordered more stuff a few days before this one, but that seems to have been consolidated with international packages and will arrive tomorrow.

>Hole saw set - 5.39€
The poo stains on the plastic case were there when I got it I swear. Not cheap for an aliexpress tool, but the quality is really decent and it coming with a fitting case is a nice bonus, I expected it to just come in a plastic bag. It's still cheaper than from the local hardware store, and the individual saws are substantially thicker than those, which I hope translates to longevity.
>Mini rotary tool - 7.70€
It feels a bit cheap and is very small. Uses some weird barrel plug that's too small for any standardized plug you might have at home, so once the plug breaks or you lose it, it'll be e-waste. Enough for small engraving work and light cuts, but nothing serious.

I'm not even sure what it does.

>I'm not even sure what it does.
Why do you want to buy it then?

>>106314717
I have a vague idea of what it does but at the same time I'm not sure.
I assume you can use it to turn wired headphones wireless and I wouldn't mind it if I could also use it as a portable player, but I don't know if any of that is true.

Where are the ants you bastard

>I'm not even sure what it does.
if your sound output is too quiet, it'll help
in every other scenario it won't help

>>106314751

Sort of, yes
>I wouldn't mind it if I could also use it as a portable player
No, it's not a DAP
Do your research anon, don't waste your money

Yeah, I was gonna watch/read reviews and all that beforehand but I kinda wanted somebody to stop me before I even wasted my time doing that.

Global sellers. for them you need to have a lot more than $10/$15/$30 for it to trigger coupon
for aliexpress shipped its completely fine on the edge of the amount.

The lasius niger queen is in a test tube setup wrapped in red foil, laid eggs a while ago which seem to be towards the latter half of the larvae stage at this point. Relocating her will happen either when her first nanitics are hatched or the test tube water is used up.
The messor barbarus harvester ants I ordered come with ~5 workers or so, but are still in the mail. Tracking claims they should arrive tomorrow, but they'll also need a little to calm down from the shock of shipping before I'll let them out.
I can post when they move, but it'll still be a while. Since both of these species are fully claustral, until the first nanites or workers are there, not much is happening frankly.

Have this image of the lasius niger queen in her test tube as a consolation prize.

>>106314960
Based. I wasn't sure if you just ordered setups without any intention of getting ants, or killed them or something. Could have done the child classic of scooping up garden ants and putting them in there, then wonder why they all die off.

>>106314960
I was absolutely confused about this right here schizopost, until I realized it was about ants. I do need to touch some grass.

>>106315073
>I wasn't sure if you just ordered setups without any intention of getting ants, or killed them or something
In your defense the original aliexpress nest was kind of an impulse buy. I've had one of those horrible gel nests as a kid and I used to watch ants do their thing as a kid in the garden, so that's why I bought it, then started doing a bunch of research about how to keep them etc.
I'm looking forward to being able to observe them in their nests, but I also realize that relocating them there too early can either harm them or even kill them, so I'm taking my time.
In a way they seem like my worms, the biggest mistake beginners make is constantly check after them and look how they're doing, which stresses them out and just slows their growth, so you have to be patient and let them do their thing. At least with the ants I get to look through the foil every few days to check the water levels and such, that's already better than the worms.

CATL was reported to have halted lithium mining operations as they are prolly moving to sodium-ion based batteries.
How will the likes of BYD adapt?

any real reason to buy a trash item 40 times instead of just buying something good once?

>>106317283
Sounds like a nothing burger to me, they even started building a new plant in Spain in a joint-venture with Stellantis for LFP batteries

>>106317505
No, which is why that's not what this thread is about.

a real chinkshitter buys a good item for cheap.
I'm still using a 2$ screwdriver set I got on gearbest a decade ago

i finally replaced my rotary shaver i've used for 7 years. that old shaver still works, it's just horrible to clean. bought it for $10 back then and i've seen it for $4.31 in bundles.
from the same brand, i bought a hair trimmer at the same time for the same price and i've used it to shave my head once a week. battery still holds strong, replaced the shaver head because the spring gave out.
buy a from a good brand at the best possible price and use that shit forever.

>>106318464
can you rec a shaver? I need something to shorten my body hair for waxing maintenance beginning but not too close of a "shave" so it has something to grab onto

>>106318685
Not that anon but i really love my mijia hair clipper v2. Adjustable cut length with the knob on the front, never cuts me or snags no matter how hard i push against my skin.
Look around for deals but this is the product

The chink flashlights I bought are WAY better than the ones I bought in stores
The chink bike lights are WAY better than the ones I bought in stores
The chink screwdriver set is WAY better than the ones I've had before (thx xiaomi)

A lot of the shit on aliexpress is complete dogshit though, like stickers

While talking about trimmers and shavers, it's probably a bad idea to get a cat trimmer from aliexpress right?

https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B092QN563N
Probably picking this one up off amazon since I saw people recommend it. I need something to trim my cat since he's old as fuck and can't wash himself so he gets nonstop matts and also gets a ton of hairballs from trying

>>106319488
>check aliexpress before heading to bed

Ah...
I guess it's the same price through ali and amazon so I might as well just buy on amazon for better customer support

proof?

I can't believe that even owners of multimillion dollar cars are using chink shit.

>>106290102
Home cleaning stuff from our malls go for 2x to 3x the price of online shops from china. I hate these predators, including the mall owner, so much.

Hey all, my gf's relatives are visiting from China and she said it'd be no problem for them to bring me stuff.

I've bought some electronics off Aliexpress but what are some things I should check out for them to bring over?

Anyone bought one of these haggis cables? decent or shit?

>>106321433
This is horrifying.

Will buying tech on AliExpress give me malware

>>106321486
Yes and no but also maybe

>>106320581
bought pic related
using it for charging only
was able to deliver 40W (dont have a device nor charger that can deliver more) without the cable melting

>>106321486
It depends.

>>106319473
shame I can't buy any decent bike light in germany. they just don't list them probably due to StVZO

>>106320581
I have a similar cable that came with lightning, usb-c and µ-usb. it's annoying as shit when the things come loose. plus you have to keep track of the inserts. just get a normal cable. if you need micro and c just get two cables

>>106318822
Is this good for facial hair and other body hair or is it just for top of the head hair?

i didnt want to pay triple the price for original lego
load of parts missing, managed to put it together but a lot of parts are lust laying there and can fall off any time

Ford CEO imported the 7 best chink cars and claimed to be reverse engineering them.

>>106321991
Nice and useless dust collector you purchased, anon.

>>106321991
lego will ship you missing parts, you don't even need proof that you bought it

>>106322032
Genuine lego has writing "lego" on every stud.

it has been 9 weeks and none of my 50+ chinkshit purchases have arrived and all still say waiting for flight or at some courier.
I have recieved literally hundreds of shipping update notification emails.
Does this site even work? Is this whole general a troll?

bros, what the fuck is the "bundle deal" in ali express? I want to buy a couple items but one always sends me to the bundle deals page and it shows up only in that separate cart. Is there a way to combine the two?

>>106322203

>>106322555
>bros, what the fuck is the "bundle deal" in ali express?
It's a section of the store where items will have lower prices than on the rest of the site, which they do by combining shipping costs. The bundle items all are in or around a warehouse where they get consolidated, then shipped together. 3 bundle items are the minimum to buy and gives you free shipping, 6 items gives you a discount (1-2€/$) and again for 10 items.
Functionally you can think of it as a separate store page with a separate cart.
>Is there a way to combine the two?
Kind of. You can either note down the store and manually find it in that store in the normal aliexpress or there was also some trick with sharing it that I can't remember where the shared version would be the non-bundle version.
This version will be a little more expensive, as it includes shipping now, and not all stores sell their items both as bundle and non-bundle versions (though most do).

>>106322555
you must buy those items from the bundles deals page, thats why they are cheaper because they expect you to buy something else (i could be completely wrong)
