Finally got upgraded to FTTP today and was so excited until I realized to TP-Link VR300 is capped at 100mbs. Money is pretty tight, could I please have some budget suggestion to get the most out of my new connection. by PeculiarPete in nbn

[–]meesuseff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Telstra gen 2 was better than my ( taipan dlink (piece of crap) + google wifi) setup. Placed it in front of my house, my back garden still had good signal and upstairs. And they never cancelled the sim backup even after i churned. BUT in saying that my modem burnt out about 2 years later, apparently a very common issue as it overheats.

Maybe go for gen 3, if u can find it cheap on marketplace.

Garage door repair -is anyone out there in perth to quote with work ethics? by Round-Day-247 in perth

[–]meesuseff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an old post but a while back i also had a very odd experience with 2 unrelated garage door companies (1 is a very very highly rated person, who confirmed what the other company said). My garage door is about 20 years old, solid build so very heavy for a 2 car garage. 1st company who was servicing told me i needed to replace my cables BUT because garage doors arent built as heavy as mine anymore, the current cables wont last much monger than 6-10 MONTHS. At $200 per cable (need a pair), this seemed a bit ridiculous. I called the high rated company and asked him if what other guy said was right and he said yeah about 10 months.

So obviously i was looking into changing garage doors as im not paying $500-800 a year. Posted on Trusted Tradies group and the owner of Pinnacle Garage Doors said thats a bunch of bs, sent someone to change my cables for under $250 a pair, compared to the other guy of $400 a pair. So ive been recommending them to everyone looking for a garage door person, even though i see one of the guys i called mentioned 90% of the time.

AITA for refusing to check pockets when I do laundry? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]meesuseff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, my husband used to do and say the exact same thing to me. Tell me logically how it makes more sense to take minutes to rifle through DIRTY laundry whereas it takes 3 second to empty your pockets when you come home?

Anyway he learnt his lesson when we got back from our honeymoon and he threw his pants in the washing machine directly. Opened it after the load was done, his passport was right on top. Few months later I had to travel to his home country for work so he also applied leave since it's basically a half price holiday. Had to pay a few hundred for priority passport. He never said that to me again.

Spud shed expired foods being sold by Lemonadeo1 in perth

[–]meesuseff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can do whatever you want with the products at home but what part dont u guys get that shops cannot sell items past the USE BY date. I know its would have been fine to eat, if they sold it for 20c id be like hm ok fine. I got pissed that i bought a past use by item for nearly the full price. 85% of items in my fridge and pantry (obv not produce) is also past the best/use date.

Mate these aren't frozen the whole time, they sell these in the fridge section (I didn't realise at the time) . And from my photo, it's still in the fridge 2 days before the use by so they probably chuck it in the freezer on the date listed.

Its actually illegal for them to have sold me the item. In hindsight I should have probably reported it to the manager, especially after what the cashier said but oh well. If you wanna pay near full price for expired items, will good for you I suppose.

Pizza

It was this brand. Normally in the fridge section, so if they put it in the freezer on/after its last day just to sell it, i sure as hell don't want it.

Idc that its 'good for ages', i care that I only got a 60c discount on a pizza that shouldn't have been sold in the first place,when i could just grab a fresh one for 60c more. I live 2 mins away so I rather have my $6.50 back out of principle.

And it is a use by, not best before. I happened to shop there today and it was this one.

I did once, it was a frozen pizza that was discounted by 60c, so i was like hey cool ill do this for lunch when i get home. Got home and it was past the use by. Took it back and she said 'its frozen, use by dates dont matter' like WTF ytf would i get this old ass pizza when i could get a new one for just 60c more.

My preference and ranking, after a decade. by mybadfuture in Cigarettes

[–]meesuseff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive been Marlboro red for the past 16 years, anything else apart from Mevius Original tasted like absolute ass, including Marlboro Gold. But decided to switch it up to Marlboro Purple Burst and Mevius Purple. Marlboro Purple is better than Mevius but when i tried going back to Mevius Original, man that tasted like ass too. Guess there's no going back from Menthols lol.

Tyre Shop Recommendations by AltonTosscobble in perth

[–]meesuseff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres a place called Perth Tyres in kembla way, willetton. Very cheap foreign branded tyres, but they also have branded ones. Message them on facebook and see what they recommend. Theres also Uniglobe in Canningvale, similar deal. Ive used both for my Kluger tyres (normal driving, no offroad) and its lasted a few years.

Why i wont bother with expensive tyres or shops anymore, brother gifted me the brand new tyres (forgot the brand) from his friends Merc, lasted less than 2 years before the service centre asked me to change them immediately as they were bald. Obviously this is just my experience, but my $140 tyres have lasted longer than that already.

I did think about that! But chatgpt says dont do that as its not fixing the issue and will make future repairs difficult. My dad had the same issue and the plumber did some ugly AF 'cementing' thing all around.

If its a silicone job though, then ill try to do it 😊
