What are these "open borders"? The US hasn't had an open border since the 1920s. It's rhetoric spread by Republicans, and is a bald faced…
Nice deal. Don't know much about the game, but at that price, seems worth a speculative purchase. Should the post title specifically say…

God no. Don't discharge every month. The only real reason for discharging is so the battery indicator can recalibrate levels for a more…

Thing about batteries is, they really hate being run down to zero. It wears on the anode/cathode structures in the battery, reducing the…

Yep, feature is called "Wifi Calling". Boost definitely works with this, as well as Telstra and Optus. You have to have a mobile phone that…

I was thinking the same. I guess there's a glut in the market for NVRAM devices. Black Friday could be exactly the right timing.
deek replied to Daniel-Tillet on Dewalt - 54V Flexvolt Dual Port Charger with 2x 6.0ah Batteries $189 @ Bunnings
You're very hostile to someone who is just trying to politely explain what may be happening. So you specifically asked Bunnings if others…

I think the point of the downvotes is that your actions are depriving someone else of a bargain. You are, in effect, acting selfishly and…

deek replied to dassaur on Filling at Least 98 Petrol for The First Year for Brand New Vehicle - Is This True?
I think pegaxs was getting at changing the compression level, not compression ratio. Which reducing forced induction would do. And fair…
deek replied to dassaur on Filling at Least 98 Petrol for The First Year for Brand New Vehicle - Is This True?
Your examples significantly change the engine, so for my argument, it fits into the "different engine" description. But, you do have a good…
deek replied to theo96 on Filling at Least 98 Petrol for The First Year for Brand New Vehicle - Is This True?
Actually, it does give you more power. If your engine is able to compress the fuel-air mixture high enough. But if you don't have an engine…
deek replied to Boioioioi on Filling at Least 98 Petrol for The First Year for Brand New Vehicle - Is This True?
I'd describe it more as "designed" rather than "tuned". The fuel RON rating is directly related to the compression ratio of your engine.…
It's all good. My password is hunter2. So it should be safe. Can't think of anywhere else on the internet that would have that password.

Nice one! Not often you get to see Dewalt batteries on sale.
