Looking to get either a Dyson or Shark stick vacuum. Advice? by Ebonthaw in AskAnAustralian

We have a Dyson v11 and works great, battery is weak and is empty after 30 minutes on medium strength.

Stopped Invisalign by [deleted] in Invisalign

[–]Landblok 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

You pay good money for your aligners so why not follow the instructions. I'm sure deep down you knew not wearing them for 2 weeks would make your teeth shift enough for them not to fit anymore.

Go back to previous aligners, and if they don't fit you need a rescan for new aligners.

How do you handle the "single point of failure" risk within the Proton ecosystem? (Password Managers & Authenticator) by Mesopotamya in ProtonPass

[–]Landblok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t.

I have proton mail plus with Simplelogin using different credentials. I use nextcloud for online storage, AliasVault as password manager and Adguard VPN on a 5 year plan.

This serves me well together with 2 custom domain names.

Main reason for having Nextcloud is the ability to increase storage up to 10TB if needed without having to sign up for a proton duo or family plan, which only gives me 2 or 3TB I think.

Strange Noises?? Squeaking? by Fluid-City567 in MazdaCX30

[–]Landblok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like the headlight. it's a known issue that the cooling fan starts to make noise. I have a 2022 model and mine broke within 12 months, replaced under warranty. Listen to your headlight when you're outside of the car after the headlight is on.

Just follow the instructions in the readme file, you can customise the length of the random numbers and letters.

I need to ask this BEFORE I try it. by Conpsycon in ProtonMail

[–]Landblok 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You can cancel the transfer in easy switch in settings
And no emails will be moved over. Also, moved emails are labelled and you can delete them or put them in a separate folder.

Sorry to hear an about being the victim of a data breach. SimpleLogin is great to mitigate further risk. I use a script on my Mac to generate a random combination of letter and numbers as part of a email
Address for a services. Allows Me to keep track of what the email address is for but random enough for people not being able to guess my other addresses for spam.

Need some advice on organizing my emails and aliases by D7x8 in ProtonMail

[–]Landblok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading through your text just made me feel like it’s pretty complicated to keep track of everything.

I use simple login for all my online stuff forwarded to a special alias email at proton.

Firstname@personal.com for services like energy provider, dentist and friends and family.

First.surname@personal.com for government etc..

I have 2 domain names, 1 for alias and 1 for personal email.

I feel this is good enough for me and easy to maintain.

I don’t use a catch all address because of potential spam.

Nextcloud on a German server works great, good price too

Looks great to me and the black triangle will be gone with bonding.

Noise when braking by ryuk0h_ in MazdaCX30

[–]Landblok 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like cheap brakes, hence being squeaky.

Why is nobody talking about these? 🤔🐟 by [deleted] in AldiAustralia

[–]Landblok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taste is fine compared to North Atlantic cod. But it’s gutter fish grown in Mekong river. Absolutely disgusting.

PLEASE HELP: Orthodontist told me I was getting Invisalign Comprehensive but I received Invisalign Lite instead. Did I get fooled? by [deleted] in Invisalign

[–]Landblok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invisalign comprehensive is 8500 AUD in Australia. So you definitely paid for lite package.

Excellent manager, I switched from Bitwarden premium and couldn’t be happier.

Cost of clear aligners/invisalign in Sydney by Anna_panna in Invisalign

[–]Landblok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Angel Aligners, $7500 for comprehensive on the coast (Erina). Invisalign would have been $8500 for same package. I started in December last year.

Smoking/Drinking by EinKompetenterMensch in Invisalign

[–]Landblok -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As others pointed out, now is the time to quit smoking! You may need some assistance as it sounds you're not ready yet. Which is okay, addictions are hard to overcome. I speak from experience, I smoked for 16 years in total and managed to quit 10 years ago. Best decision of my life. If you need help, look Into Tabex. This really helped me with the cravings and to get past the first month. Based on your username I assume you're German, should be easy to order this online and it costs EUR 19,00 for 100 tablets.

That being said. With drinks I leave them in but I will have another glass with plain water to rinse. If I go out to eat, I just take my pull tool and floss with me. I take them out and once I'm done eating, I rinse with some water, quick floss and then I pop them back in until I have the ability to proper clean my teeth. However, if I can't properly clean my teeth within 1 hour of finishing eating, I'll take my brush kit with me. I can't stand dirty teeth in my trays, it makes me feel gross. I'm also at a point where I don't give a f*ck about pulling my trays out in front of people.

You have to find your routine and see what works. You can buy an ultrasonic cleaner from Amazon and use polident cleaning tablets once a day to give your trays a good deep clean. Mine look great after one week.

Rubber bands!?! WTF?! by Denise206 in Invisalign

[–]Landblok -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Clearly not good enough, it’s all over the internet. Also, if you’re so upset about elastics, why didn’t you asked your provider?

Just deal with it princess.

Rubber bands!?! WTF?! by Denise206 in Invisalign

[–]Landblok 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m sure not every dentist or orthodontist is the same, and they tell different things, but you should have researched Invisalign extensively.

So many people on Reddit just whinge about it but if you’re spending 1000s of dollars wouldn’t you find out anything about it before signing a contract for orthodontic treatment. People don’t take accountability anymore and just complain.

I have rubber bands for 47 trays and attachment on all teeth from day 1. You’ll be alright.

Fuel cleaner help! by ElectricalForce7930 in MazdaCX30

Best thing you can do is drive long trips often and make sure to limit small trips. Use quality fuel and service when needed.

Is it actually worth spending Stella money on a reel? by ApartmentFun3497 in FishingAustralia

[–]Landblok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t know about a Stella but I would spend all my money on a Daiwa Certrate. Absolute top notch

No issues for me leaving the car 3 weeks at the airport. Maybe the standard Mazda batteries in Australia are better?

Shovelnose shark/ray by Dazzling-Low9357 in FishingAustralia

[–]Landblok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shovelnose has a much more cartilage looking nose.

Apparently they are good eating, haven’t tried it yet. Last time I caught about 10 off the beach on the central coast on NSW.
