    Any new ways to get Qobuz in SA?

    Completely forgot about that until yesterday, when I wanted to play the Dune 2 soundtrack on my Sonos, only to realise that it was not supposedly not possible. I contacted Sonos support, just in case they knew a workaround, but surprisingly, because Qobuz is not available in ZA, they will not...

    So, we did a trip down South recently

    Thanks, glad you like the video. The only place to buy such cold-weather gear is Drifters, in Cape Town. Our kit cost R80k for both of us - would probably have cost half of that if bought in the EU/US. Thing is, we also live in Porto, so now we have the required kit to go explore the Arctic...

    I've not heard the LSX, so I can't comment. But based on Darko's review of both, it looks like this is on par, if not better at the low-end

    Cars with Dipsticks. When to check the oil Hot or Cold Engine ?

    Cold, but it also depends on the vehicle. For example, in my RRS, one needs to check the oil 10 min after engine shutdown, not when it's cold.

For example, increasing from -70, it goes 69, 67...
