Pretty much. But he’s been around since 2010 organising group buys. For nearly half the price I’m willing to bet on him being around for at least three more years.

Could you please elaborate? What about WD?

Downloaded Tachiyomi since Mahoro-chan isn’t managing to pick up all the SJ titles and I’m not going back to reddit. Discovered Tokyo Underworld and Kuchi ga Saketemo.

Yeah, the person who recommended me this site did mention that Neology used to be active on Ozbargain and ebay before setting up their site. Iirc I was told they source their HDDs in bulk from Hong Kong which goes some way to explaining the price difference. That’s also why the warranty is with Neology and not Seagate/WD.

My drives came in and they work fine. Spun up and reported the correct size. Passed a Wiztree test too. They are a bit “clicky” though. I guess that’s a characteristic of enterprise drives. Luckily I have a case with a lot of sound dampening.

Just placed the order a few days ago so haven’t gotten them yet. The person that recommended the site to me has bought several and they work. It’s cheap because the store bulk buys OEM drives so the warranty is through them instead of Seagate/WD.

Damn, Microsoft killed another bot. We can’t keep allowing this to happen. Remember Tay!

I prefer having the bot around because it allows me to quickly filter out all mangaplus updates just by checking the bot’s profile. Reddit allowed you to filter by domain, which lemmy can’t. It’s annoying having to go post by post to check the mangaplus updates.

I think making the mangaplus posts exclusive to the bot is even more important as the community grows lest it become a race to rep farm the moment a chapter is released.

I don’t mind stepping up at least till I can convince the actual /r/bapcsalesaustralia mods to come over.
