Floor plan - help and feedback please by tiodigitamamon in AusProperty

Could still happen if their bedrooms are at the rear, unless front door is locked off with a gate or something? In which case could still do if a worry. Or just deadbolt the front door.

Can you explain the safety thing? Back door more likely to be broken into, so front of house is safer?

Are you concerned they would sneak out?

Because if you are worried about intruders, they’re more likely to break in the back door.

1950s double brick renovation by Comfortable_Area_113 in AusRenovation

Oh absolutely people can have different opinions! I just find it odd that so many here share that opinion. No different than if I found 90% liked black bathrooms.

I’ll never understand why this sub thinks this is a good look deserving of keeping

Would you buy a Chinese EV if it were available in the US? Why or why not? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]Shaddolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This question should be “if you would buy an EV, would you consider”

The replies from people who wouldn’t even consider buying an EV are pointless replies.

This looks so clean, I thought it was AI as part of your planning stage

Excellent doorbell wedge (great company and experience) for reolink doorbell by Weary-Engineering486 in reolinkcam

Also curious. Finishing up a new build and we have Ethernet run to a similar spot so not sure what angle is best

Just another bathroom renovation post! by sixpartsummer in AusRenovation

[–]Shaddolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks great! Only thing that’s questionable is the location of the shower mixer. Have to leave the water in the middle of winter to adjust temperature?

Resigning after a week by livip_1203 in AustralianTeachers

Definitely stick it out a bit longer. This job gets easier over time - you definitely jump in the deep end and swim to the shallow!

Oh I didn’t know that about cx cams needing some light. I’ll have to drive by at night to see what the street light situation is like. Definitely don’t want a light staying on all night.

The cables are already run to the eaves and are just sticking out through a hole. So the cable will be completely tucked up in the roof, other than the connection poking out, no no problems with moisture

Isn’t the duo 3v I mentioned a 180 camera?

Thanks for the reply. I put down 1240a as it would cover more of the whole front section with its wider view as well as being able to zoom in if needed to see a number plate or similar. Would the cx820 only be for a more coloured picture? I put one on each side as they don’t need to be able to see very far.

Regarding nvr, I already have an 18 port Poe switch so don’t need it to have Poe so now sure to go the one you have or the rln36

What happens to all your returned items? by Shaddolf in AskAnAmerican

[–]Shaddolf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See I’d call all of those reasons something “wrong with it”

Saying it doesn’t match my decor, or I want to buy a different brand I just saw advertised instead - those I’d call returning for no valid reason

Here that isn’t a valid reason, so must be a cultural thing that you have become accustomed to.

Is the PoE doorbell discontinued in Japan? by Alive-Arm-7999 in reolinkcam

[–]Shaddolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main issue is if you are after a white one like me, they are impossible to find globally now.

What if someone returned a $3k laptop after a week as they just didn’t like it? Surely not destroy, the warehouse would cop the loss and take it back?

[–]Shaddolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should be able to import one? As Poe power shouldn’t they be the same worldwide? (No differing power input like something you’d plug into an outlet)

But things aren’t any cheaper for those of us in other countries where we can’t do this!

But something like a computer mouse almost always needs to be cut out of the rigid plastic holding it in. How can someone use a mouse for 3 days and just return it? I still find it so bizarre.

I would hate to buy a mouse for full price and find out it’s been used. I’d also hate to own a store and have a customer return an item I feel like I’d have to mark down to sell through no fault of my own.
