    [Misc] Amazon: Benign marketplace enabler or parasitic leech?

    I think that free delivery angle doesn't hold as much water any more. They often mark up prices to cover their "free delivery". A quick search on eBay and most can find the majority of products cheaper, and with free delivery. Also let's not forget there's a £100 fee for the privilege

    [Technology] Has anyone on NSC bought the new iPhone 14 yet ?

    [Misc] Suggestions to save energy this winter…

    If you have an immersion tank, consider adding extra (or replacing) the insulation. We've replaced our 20 year old insulation with a £15 jacket from Screwfix and can see it's holding temperature far, far longer than previously
