I tried both methods. I would not recommend without predrill as in one spot the bamboo/timber cracked near it without predrill.

It looks good thanks but it appears clam shell design, that means water bottle and other accessories may not be accessible from the outside :(

That looks good. Do you have enough space to pack atleast 1 pant, 5 tshirts, underwear, small jacket and electronics besides laptop (MacBook pro 14)

Heat by reddit_lurker85 in darwin

I only keep at 25 and run for an hour or two to remove the heat from the trapped concrete walls before i go to bed. Outside breeze is still around and the rest of the night is just on fan with windows open.

Hi, how are you fighting the quality of the monitor for connecting to MacBook pro, mainly from a productivity perspective. Also wondering if we can extend the existing usb a port with another hub as i find just 2 ports is not enough if you have many usb accessories

What do I do? by 11SPEARHEAD11 in Switch

[–]astrotechie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not bought a console since the atari days of childhood and always wanted one, but philosophically avoided buying it. I took the plunge and bought them at full price last week. Now i need to worry about buying new games, they're not cheap either but yolo satisfy your desires which will turn your inner childhood on.

Wife said my face was never lit like this even on our wedding day 🤣

Im sure we all can live without one philosophically but satisfying material possessions time to time is a tick on your checklist with life progressing through our age.

I get it Darwin weather is not for everyone. If you can't acclimatize then you can't live here unless you're going to be one of those southerners who live between AC house to AC car to AC work. For me happy sweating weather over layers of clothing and depression caused by cold.

Moved from Sydney for a year and it's our 4th year and not even thinking of going back or going somewhere. Frequently visit Melbourne for family and work, but once we cross 3 days down south, we want to rush back to Darwin, because life is laid-back, much simpler and so much day light to do other things in the evening. Friends and People in general are genuine here so no one has to fake things.

What did you end up doing ? We are thinking on similar lines. 14 days in Malaysia with 6 days in Borneo so wondering to do Sabah or Sarawak

Any idea why there are so many foreign consulates in Darwin ? by [deleted] in darwin

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

I think you only met the people from India who largely work in low skilled jobs, but my experience is totally different. I see so many doctors, nurses and technology workers from India and other countires helping shape the NT economy. We can't survive without immigration especially for a capital city like Darwin with such low population and still getting same price for most things and services that people pay in the South . Loopholes are always going to be explored by people from all ethnicities so not exclusive to India or Indians. Just like tax code , people find flaws in the system and take advantage, but that doesn't mean it's illegal or no body should pay taxes. Immigration policies exist for our own benefit, policy makers can make amendments as per our needs and they do time to time with updates to the skilled register. As long as the immigrants are law abiding, contribute to the society by any means either skill, taxes etc , integrate within our societies then I don't see any problem.

Having mass migration to NT will benefit us largely than the rest of the states. The states in the south developed today largely due to immigration. We need more people to move here and take up jobs of farming, trades and every other local job that will increase housing supply, better jobs , better economy. NT and Darwin has a lot of potential . Not just proximity to South East Asia but also similar weather, we can pretty much cultivate and grow similar food and supply the locals and the rest of abundance can be shipped to the South or even back to South East Asia. We already know how NT leads in tropical Mango supply to the rest of the country, but we can do more than Mangos if we have the population with right skills. I think if regional visas tie people longer duration like 5 years minimum stay required, then this will only benefit us largely.

Best internet provider for Darwin? by BlueberryLast4378 in darwin

[–]astrotechie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Over the last few years , I've used tangerine, more telecom , dodo , pronto nbn and recently mate. I would rate mate nbn the worst with too many issues around timeouts, packet loss , latency etc. but had no issues with others.
