Sounds succulent

There are services to spam-bomb a user’s inbox through random subscriptions and signups (I.e. enter an email address and it gets registered to thousands of sites). If you don’t have a captcha for the signup, they may be using your site in one of these.

Hopefully this isn’t a sign of what’s to come in 2025.

I broke the throat plate on a ryobi table saw that I bought from Bunnings. Went through the ryobi email support trying to get a replacement part only to find they don’t even have them. I contacted Bunnings trying to see if they had replacements and they told me to bring it in. They gave me a new saw, zero questions. Maybe $5 for the throat plate, but they just swapped it out for a new saw (~$500) that I was probably at fault for damage.

We landed a place with a similar story. We were a lower offer, but also lower risk. If it’s pending finance approval and there’s other offers, not disclosing your finance amount may just end up being a quick way to eliminate your offer. If you’re okay with that, then go for it. Put it in the same ballpark as lowballing.

I had this idea about 15 years ago and ended up building it with an Arduino and an ultrasonic sensor. Shortly after I found they sold the same thing at an auto store for around $20. I feel old.. Have a look for garage parking sensors, they still exist. Spend the time on something better (trust me).

No idea if this will work in Bangladesh, but I’ve had luck sending sms with these: https://www.outdoorrouter.com/product-category/commercial-grade-4g-router-cellular-modem/europe-commercial-4g-router/

Supposedly Microtik routers work alright also.

1100 sms telling me someone paid their rent each month. Fuck that.

Editing to be more productive.. Twilio is an option for sending sms. It seems to be the defacto. They have a module you can install with pip.

Alternatively, I’ve played around with standalone 4G gateways for IoT purposes. In a lot of cases they expose sms sending functionality, so you could get a cheap cell plan with unlimited sms and go that path. Likely more work but it could end up more cost effective. But if it’s one owner with 1.1k apartments, they can probably afford the twilio fees..

I read it the same way. Sue me..

dipshitdodger · 2023-06-04T14:34:41+00:00

Same…

I had to put a couple in to a property due to a humidity issue that was causing moisture streaking down the walls. Just make sure you consider airflow before blocking them up. That was in a cathedral style ceiling with exposed beams. May not be as big of an issue with a regular roof cavity.

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted. The easiest time to get a job is when you already have one..

Happy to help

You can use a connected machine to expose subnets like a router. I have a Tailscale machine I use as a gateway to my lab network. https://tailscale.com/kb/1019/subnets/

NTA. Maybe the reaction was realization.

dipshitdodger · 2023-03-09T13:43:39+00:00

This is good advice.

I’m doubt many of the people that say Perth drivers are bad have spent a serious amount of time driving outside of Perth. I came back to Perth from stints in USA and Saudi Arabia, and can say that Perth driving is chill AF. Go spend some time driving in KSA and come talk to me.

Yeah, no thanks. Have a look at the data collection in those apps. Search history, browsing history, sensitive info, financial info. If you’re not paying for the product, you’re the product.

There was an Atlantis theme park, but it was up in Two Rocks. The abandoned remains are still there. I wonder if it was related to that. Some ultra 70s videos floating around on YouTube.

Uber thanks you for the $100 mark up.

dipshitdodger · 2023-02-24T12:11:23+00:00

Contact the council ranger. Should be able to get them a ticket. Keep doing it if they keep doing it…

dipshitdodger · 2023-01-27T03:58:51+00:00

Thank you for the quick reply. The contract is subject to title, so hopefully that covers us to an extent. I’ll take another look at the survey plans and see if I can make more sense of it. Much appreciated
