First off, don’t sweat it too much. Easy to say, I know. Plenty of people can get around uni entry by using other pathways.…

So funny how words change. Bushwacking historically was attacking/murdering someone on the trail via ambush. But my pointless factoid…

If you get a partial refund for the defect, make sure that you’re not signing anything that discharges Bunnings or the plumber from any…

Thank you OP, not to be a dick but how do you know it’s that price in 4 days - is it an upcoming special? I tried looking up Big W…

I’d be very tempted if it was a Radiation King! If it all goes to hell, I at least want to listen to Billie Holiday on the most…

Don’t sell yourself short mate. The quality of ‘tradie’ work I’ve seen lately is not at all encouraging. Plenty of skilled…

Depends a bit on the trade or whatever you’re doing. For instance Makita make great tools but they don’t have a framing nailer, and…

Edit - Also, super random that OW is selling Nintendo games, I guess this is targeted at the discerning office worker who wants quality…

It’s a ripper game, but I found it a lot harder than BOTW. Still, it’s an awesome ‘cozy’ game.. just difficult.

I appreciate the effort in the post but I don’t see how this is a deal? No way in hell this is worth what they’re asking. Also, if you…

I feel like a ruler nerd saying this but the bendy rulers are better because you can twist them and bend them without risk of them cracking…

Does any of you wonderful folks have one of these with a slate tile floor? I’ve got an around 30 or so sq/m of Indian slate tile floor…

I’ve read differing things with some people saying that because MAC is more optimised 8GB is okay, but honestly my own sense is that 8GB…

Definitely less demand for them, out of my younger extended family only myself, my partner, and BIL can drive manual, and everyone else is…

This is a decent tape measure but.. it doesn’t have a lot of reach before folding. But quality wise, it’s a decent tape.

It doesn’t sound right, no. If you go into a retailer and buy a product advertised as being brand new or new, then it shall be delivered…

Depends on the type of weed. If you mean thistles that have micro hair barbs - or similar, these are fine. If you mean something like rose…

This is probably a knock off Bafang M600, possibly made by Ananda (Chinese company that do carbon copies of Bafang stuff) but who knows.…

I’ve always just used a cheap direct motor air compressor with an air blow gun attachment, used this for heaters, vacuums, tools etc. The…

Her potential infidelity is irrelevant. As long as said cameras do not impinge on their privacy keep them there.

At the moment, no it’s not possible. In the future, yes I’m very confident that humans will find a solution to prevent physical damage…

These FatMax kits are the same as the Porter*Cable in the US, which are meant to be reasonable quality.

I go with IKEA because they have a 365 day return window, however you cannot get a refund only a swap for another mattress. Also, if you…

I’m genuinely trying to think of the last time I bought something from HN. It’s weird that I can’t remember because I usually…

A garbage man! (Love the obscure Simpsons reference BTW! - such an awesome episode).

You can’t usually smell yourself, it’s just one of those things. I mean sure sometimes if I really stink from slogging away and I’m…

I think you’re correct in Midea being a wholesale manufacturer, as well as an OEM manufacturer under their own name. AFAIK but I could be…

Makes a lot of sense. I’m thinking I’ll have to do the same thing, cause yeah Makita just seems overpriced.

Damn it. I bought into Makita OPE, but the DeWalt gear is so much cheaper. I.E; the pole saw is like $200 odd, whereas the Makita is like…

Apparently Corolla Cross hybrid 2022 combined fuel economy is 4.3 L/100, whereas Mitsubishi ASX 2020 is 7.9, which leaves a gap of 3.6L per…
