Single argb fan started flickering after about a week.

This one fan started flickering a couple weeks ago and while I was trouble shooting something else, ended up reinstalling windows (wasn't the issue, long story). After the reinstall the fan was fine for about a week and then started doing it again.

It's connected with that rear fan and that one seems fine. I only have OpenRGB to control everything, though before it first started I just set the color and uninstalled it. I did reseat just that fans lighting cable and that didn't seem to do anything.

Any ideas what could be causing this?

His profile is sufficient _sense_214

Went to Bunnings yesterday to buy some wood and get it cut in three.

In the whole of the hardware store there was one guy rostered who was trained to cut wood and he went out.

Wasted an hour trying to track him down to cut my bit of wood in three.

Seems dodgy.

Kill the competition!!!

Anyone else notice Bunnings has gone totally stupid with so much of their stock & prices!?? As a tradie I have seen the things I've bought regularly over the years go up & up & up & up!!! Until it is now not worth me buying from them anymore! The trouble is if I want it any cheaper I have to try & find it ​online & then wait around a week for it, if I'm lucky!!. So yeah! Not too convenient when you need something at short notice!!. I'm sure they are still relatively competitive with some things, & more then likely still a little cheaper on all the new stuff they are trying to break onto the market with, & are now stocking​!. But for how long!!?... We a feeding this monster company who will then turn on us & treat us like prey!!. 10% cheaper hey! ​If you can find anyone else!!... Fork you Bunnings!!!. Rant over. I kinda feel better now 😊

Does Bunnings know how BAD their site is on mobile?

I cannot get around the Bunnings app with any speed on my phone. I'm usually waiting 5-10 seconds, not for the page to download, but for all the scripts and junk it runs to stop hammering my processor.

Even on PC, the Bunnings website gobbles memory the moment you open it, and CPU starts to spin once you're about 15 links in.

In short, the website has so much junk crammed into it, my phones cannot run it.

I have tried an iPhone 13 and an Asus ROG Phone 8. The Asus can run the site slowly, with the turbo gaming mode enabled. Without that, it's about 30 seconds to load search results and be able to scroll halfway before needing to wait another 30 seconds to load the second half of the page.

Brave browser seems to be able to run faster than Chrome on Android because it's blocking a lot of telemetry scripts.

This has been the case for about 3 years now. It has only gotten worse.

Best reliable sturdy deck scrubber

Wondering which deck scrubber or grout brush you guys might recommend for kitchen tile floor cleaning.

Here are some few options I had a quick look at with some good reviews but wondering if anyone has used any of these or other deck scrubbers or grout brushes and had good results.

Mainly looking for something that won't break easily or deteriorate easily.

Anyone have first hand experience on this?

Any recommendations or non recommendations hugely appreciated.

Trying to avoid doing a whole commercial kitchen on my hands and knees with a tile brush I have from home so looking at getting a deck scrubber.

We have diversey Suma break up degreaser so will be letting that sit on the tiles for 20 minutes then deck scrubbing then squeegeeing to the floor drain or mopping it up.

Also have some other chemicals and floor cleaners we can try.

But mainly looking for a solid deck scrubber/grout brush so what does everyone use with good results?

I’m so happy I quit Bunnings

Not much else to say but I just had to get it out. The ridiculous changes in store culture, managers making sure shit flows downstream to floor staff. Also the new KPI rule can get fucked.

If you shop at Bunnings, do us a favour and refuse to pay with the Bquick/mobile docket. The more that customers refuse the mobile dockets, the quicker the higher ups will realise it’s a pointless exercise.

I’ll never look back.

Appropriate bread for snags

Hello all, I was just trying to find out some information following a conversation with my partner. We have moved to WA and, in their sausage sizzles, they use full hot dog rolls. Now personally, i find these to be massively hit and miss. I’d say maybe 1-2 in 10 are beautiful and fresh but most are a bit stale and then chewy and given the quantam of bread, really spoils the whole thing.
Now coming from QLD and NT I was only ever used to normal bread being used and I ended up asking them over here why they use the rolls and apparently it’s mandated by Bunnings.
Now I’m curious what happens in the other states? Is it one or the other? Would appreciate your help in knowing

Bunnings Hoodie in Perth?

My partner has his heart set on getting one of the Bunnings jumpers (apparently it’s a tradie badge of honour 😂) He’s already signed up to the Tradie Network, but still hasn’t been able to get one.
Does anyone know how I could get my hands on one? I’d love to surprise him with it

People who work at Bunnings, what’s it like?

Gotta love mobile dockets

Feeling like a solicitor in the timberyard trying to force people to “transact at the rack”.

It used to be an average retail job. Why do the people higher up have to force random nonsense KPIs on us?
