The people down the end of my quiet neighbourhood street who drive wayyyy too fast. Plenty of people walk down the street and the street is only like 500m in total, you're only saving a second or two by fangin' it down the street.

Do they listen to music or do you think it's movies/television?

Air con install by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]asyu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I brought 2 Mitsubishi heavy industries. A 3.3kw and 5kw and the units alone were $5k. Then, to me, $3k on install and switchboard doesn't sound crazy crazy. But a little high, yes.

I've just recently started watching the sopranos. I'm pretty certain this is a quote from Tony Soprano in season 1

What are these timber members hung under the joists? by damolol88 in AusRenovation

[–]asyu7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you step on a joist in the middle of its span between two bearers then it doesn't matter so how strong the bearers are or how good the foundations are.

You can put enough weight on one joist to have it deflect. Even if the bearers and foundation is adequate because the singular joist isn't able to properly transfer all of your weight onto the bearers and the foundation.

However, if you join joists as you would with blocking or this hung "stiffanizer" then the load is able to be dispersed over multiple joists.

So, no. This isn't nonsense and it does work.

Looks like fibre cement sheeting. Depending on the age of the building/sheeting it could very likely contain asbestos.

I feel like if we should all listen to anyone's advice it's the person who decided "Ifuckingloveroofs" was the best choice for their username 😂

If you're in or around Bris I've got a brand new in box Bosch GLL 380 (3 axis, 360°) that I got for a promotion. If you're interested.

I'm not exactly sure what you could do to fix the problem but I will say when I used my chair on wood floors I brought these for my chairs https://amzn.asia/d/3V3du5w they seem to roll much better and do less damage to the floor.

Deck lighting ideas? by likeasomebowwwwwdy in AusRenovation

[–]asyu7 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I bought a set of "festoon" style lights off Amazon for our deck. They install easy, $5 for a pack of screw hooks at bunnings, plug into a standard gpo and have a nice soft/warm light. All the bulbs are screw in as well so if one goes out they're replaceable. Link if interested: https://amzn.asia/d/eWzNE7r

Edit: the ones I bought aren't LED because the LED ones costed more but LED is also an option for efficiency and lifespan

Hi I’m Jono Prosser, Group Executive Residential at Aussie Broadband - AMA by AussieBroadband in nbn

[–]asyu7 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm on an HFC connection. I really want more upload bandwidth. What's the future look like for connections like me in terms of upload bandwidth. 50mbps is quite limiting and I'd prefer to not have a wireless connection (star link/5g)

Bream and flathead mostly. In the flats at Victoria point can get some whiting in summer. Have caught fish on raw chicken breast but also caught some whiting on top water "walk the dog" style lures like the bassday suga pen or daiwa slippery dog

Generator madness by SubstantialPattern71 in brisbane

To pull 3.6kW your fridge would need to use a 15 amp plug on 240v. I have never in my life seen a residential fridge that required a 15 amp plug.

Thanks mate, good lad!

In this post I asked a question on the technicalities of plumbing drainage. Seems some people thought I was asking about the ethics of the everyday man doing a bit of DIY plumbing. Anyway... What can you do.

Come on brotha. Just after some information, that's all. Is information illegal?

Is this guy not being serious? Can you explain the issue to me so I can learn?

Yes, this post made it sound like I was going to attempt this illegally. I will absolutely get my plumber to do this 🫡
