If washing hands with cold tap water and soap is good enough to protect against contracting an illness through touch, 1.5 hours worth of…

The intense UV in QLD will wreck some clothes for free too. A dryer load costs me about 20c in electricity so I'm not losing sleep over it.

Yup, this is also the reason why some QLDers have been against DST. The extra hour of daylight fades the curtains.

What about [ALDImobile](https://www.aldimobile.com.au/products/payg)? $5 for the SIM, a recharge lasts 365 days and starts at $15 so it'll…

Strange, I don't have any plastic smell at all.

Yup I used the plastic strip, it worked perfectly. It's designed pretty well so you can get accurate marks easily. Just tape down the strip…

It's not as simple as that; it depends on the area you're covering amongst other things. Proper [CCTV system…

Reviewer says he waited six months for his NBN connection to be fixed. He gave up and got Starlink which worked right away. Without knowing…

Are you implying 100% of NBN installs have zero issues? Knowing the [number of variables](https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/9kpy8w0j)…

Yeah, the problem online is most of the time people who are satisfied with something don't bother posting about it, so you'd tend to read…

I remember trying for months to get Telstra to pull a HFC cable to our building from the street. It took months of back and forth talking…

Yeah, if I was installing it at home I'd rather have a larger dish with higher speed. I imagine heavy rain (or snow) would affect the…

I wonder if they intend to replace these regular dishes with the mini, which have about half the max speed.

He said his FTTP wasn't working for 6 months though, so a working internet connection definitely beats FTTP that isn't working. Of course…

It depends on whether or not what you cut tends to fly away. It's not really an issue with stranded insulated wires but more with stiffer…

I wonder if the screws on the sides of the door (step 19) that are meant to let you adjust the height of the panel once installed will also…

> Oh I didn't realise the door panel isn't meant to be completely tight/gapless against the dishwasher. It sort of is. If you look at page…

FWIW the door doesn't touch the sticker on mine. I didn't use the VAGLIG rails or add any spacers. No rubbing so far.

If you happen to have Ozito batteries you could get [one of…

There is no exact equivalent. Ikea got Bosch to manufacture a custom model that's somewhere in between a Series 6 and Series 8. Probably…

Whoops you're right, [this](https://github.com/libdyson-wg/ha-dyson) is the right one!

Oh right, sorry! Looking at how air currents in leaky rooms (airflow under doors for example) can affect localised temperature in a room, a…

Hmm ok. Your first post mentioned you setting it to 18 degrees and the room hitting 20+. That made me assume you were expecting it to keep…

Out of curiosity, what made you expect the Dyson to cool like an air conditioner?

I've been using the $27 ones on Amazon. Works well enough for me. I vacuum it every now and then; it traps heaps of dust. How much does…

Hmm, I'm not sure how efficient that portable air conditioner is. It only has a single exhaust hose which means the unit will be sucking…
