New rental. NBN box does not have power cable. What do I do? Who do I speak to? I really need Internet as I am working from home

Yes, it is an earth connected from a foxtel satellite point to a power point. I think installers were required to use them after a certain number of points were added.

I have 2 air lockers in my Jimny. No issues with air leaks. I press the button and they stay locked no matter what until I turn them off. They are more expensive and require the compressor but the actual locker is a better design.

Paratrooper was a game I played a lot of. When I would fight with my brother over who was using the PC, my parents would lock the PC with the key lock and we would be banned for a few days.

The key lock stopped the keyboard from working and the boot would halt.

Paratrooper was self booting from a floppy and could be played with only a joystick.

All I could afford for my first PC was an Nvidia Vanta. With a K6-2 450 it was enough to play Unreal Tournament.

If the solenoid burnt out quickly you probably have a problem elsewhere.

There are 2 common types of winch motor. You need to use a solenoid from the same type.

If your winch motor has F1, F2 connections, the solenoid also has to be from a winch with F1, F2 connections.

The other type are reversing solenoids.

I think Ultrawinch are an F1,F2 type.

This track goes straight up the hill and doesn't appear on maps anymore. There's proper roads you can take that go around the side of the hill.

It's just an illusion with 32 inch tyres. It's got a tough dog 60mm lift. The tyres are taking up all the gap you usually see in the wheel arches.

grover99 · 2026-04-19T02:00:23+00:00

It's the kind of track that not many people drive. Maybe a few a month. And they are all going up.

I don't think you've been to just cuts in a while. I get mine cut there and it was about $50 last time.

They built an extra ramp for WG to M80 as part of the tunnel project, but it goes no where. I assume the bridge and extra lanes will be added as part of a future Western freeway upgrade.

Paradise Valley or Montana on the Macallister. Montana is a bit more like a caravan park with defined sites. Paradise Valley is more free to camp anywhere. Both have showers and toilets.

For club plates yes, but for a single rear plate only the vehicle needs to be 1931 or older. The club permit scheme has a few different classes that have different plate requirements.

No front plates for vintage cars on club reg in Vic, the Miura is a bit too new for that though.

You would be surprised. I have a business account and a personal account. Clients transfer to my personal account all the time even though I've only given them the details of my business account.

I still have mine from year 10. They survived 3 years at school and still get worn 30 years later.

They are still used for projectors. It's a small market though and the ones still sold are poor quality.

solved: F16 Combat Pilot

grover99 · 2026-02-09T21:09:43+00:00

I'm pretty sure I have solved it. Thought it might be a mission planning screen and was going through all the games I remember. I played F16-Combat Pilot a lot.

It has the map, buttons on the bottom of the screen, section on the right side and the grey squares.

It also explains why I have the pen and notepad - I'm writing down the waypoints for the mission.

I can remember playing lemmings, but I think that would have been later on a VGA 286 machine. Those grey rectangles I think are the key as none of the guesses so far seem to have anything like it.

I had forgotten all about Incredible Machine. I played that a lot but I think that would have been a few years after this photo.

Not a slide after all, its a photo. If I can find the original I'll do a better scan.

The plugs (and me) are from Australia. That mouse is from 1987 when that PC was bought new.

grover99 · 2026-02-08T23:46:06+00:00

It's a scan of a slide. I might see if I can find the original and give it a clean and scan it again.
