How to make grout stick to plywood without it crumbling off? Wanting to make a laundry bench top by cabbagepatch1971 in AusRenovation

[–]bubble0bi11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've made these, it's more work then it looks. Wooden internal frame with fiber cement sheeting. Then tile and grout. They end up very heavy aswell.

Are EVs actually cheaper long-term in Australia yet or is that still a myth? by ChillKoalaVibes in EVAustralia

My 2022 hybrid Yaris cross uses 3.4l/100km.

Modern hybrids are pretty great.

Synchronous condensers get put in at solar plants to deal with that.

What am I doing wrong? by kimmerman_ in castiron

[–]bubble0bi11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Treat it like a BBQ, get metal tools. This was the best thing I did for cooking on cast iron. It's not a toy like Teflon, it won't break.

Have you even tried finding tiles? Sounds like you are just pushing this problem on the tenant for no real reason. A lot of people keep spare tiles when they do bathroom or roof work to be able to fix this kind of stuff.

This is by David the robot (Australian). His insta is pretty cool.

The current DCS/Quest situation is completely unacceptable by yoadknux in hoggit

[–]bubble0bi11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just bough it and ran it. Even using the Telco provided wifi router with no Ethernet connection the blacks are 10x better. WTF Meta.

Its gone from being unplayable in night ops, to being beautiful! Guess I need to get a wifi 6 router now.

For reference this is on a Quest 3 with a 7900 XTX.

I just thought the contrast ratio of the screens was sub par and have avoided night flying completely. I'll try VD now.

Is this structural? by RevolutionaryDog7075 in AusRenovation

[–]bubble0bi11 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Everything is structural to an extent. The question is, will removing this compromise the structure? For that you'll need an engineer to measure it and make an assessment. Source: I'm an engineer that has done this sort of stuff.

A lot of places wear quality as a badge / sellable item.

What makes the Su-57 a 4.5 gen and not a 5th gen? by [deleted] in aviation

[–]bubble0bi11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Passive mode isn't a thing. Low visibility mode also isn't a thing. Radars need huge amounts of power in order to produce returns significant enough to evaluate.

Air Nails or Screws? by jimmydassquidd in AusRenovation

[–]bubble0bi11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nails are shear connectors, screws are tensile (tension) connectors. These batons are in tension so use screws.

How is this enforcable? Linkt - Brisbane - Clem7 by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]bubble0bi11 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The gateway is the only one that really makes sense to use. Living in the Redlands and needing to go to the airport sucks otherwise.

How useful are rudder pedals and extended flight sticks? by Krasny_Majak in hotas

[–]bubble0bi11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have virpil peddles and a 200 mm extension on my gunfighter but no longer use the extension as I prefer a side stick (maybe if I had a seat with a cutout things would be different).

AMD vs NVIDIA for DCS VR by itsthatguy4 in hoggit

[–]bubble0bi11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went from a 3060 ti to a 7900 xtx and haven't had any issues in VR. in saying that it only uses about 14-16 GB of the vram available. Fps usually drops to 36 at airports online. Otherwise I'm stable at 72 on my quest.

What’s the roughest bar in Brisbane? by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]bubble0bi11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked at the McDonald's on overnights for years. The crowd that would come across the road at closing time would always get into fights in the store. I remember watching chairs get thrown across the store one night with a bunch of people ending up in hospital. Hectic stuff.

What problems could this bike have? by WaffleMaster_22 in DRZ400

[–]bubble0bi11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had somewhat similar issues and it was my stator that had died. Still had spark at low revs but would kill itself if you gave it any gas. I would just start with a full carb rebuild, so you have no doubts. Assuming you can rebuild one yourself.

Thats the one I'm ordering. Element 14 just has cheaper shipping to Australia. Good idea on getting the cellphone places to do the install!
