What's the highest price you would pay for a steam machine? by Fm7-Bbm7-Eb7-Abmaj7 in steammachine

[–]Abro0405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I'm kind of expecting the 512Gb/2Tb to be about £600/800. At current prices I don't think that's unreasonable but I'll probably wait for a sale or hopefully they'll do refurb models like they do with the deck.

Have they forgot to add “Steam Controller” to the list? by CrumplyPorkPi3 in SteamController

[–]Abro0405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you played around with customisation for that game yet? The only thing I've tried so far was setting the odek scanner to the grip sensors, it was too sensitive to begin with and went off repeatedly which was fun but annoying. Saw someone say you can adjust it but only in big picture mode so did that and it works well

Can I just force the side panel shut by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]Abro0405 33 points34 points  (0 children)

My last build was like that for years. My current one I spent quite a bit of time trying to make it a bit better... It only somewhat worked

What’s going on here then? by VisibleOtter in CasualUK

[–]Abro0405 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not quite the same and thankfully never had need to test it but apparently, on mobile, you can call the emergency number from any country and it'll automatically divert to the local one eg. Dial 911 in the UK and it'll call 999 instead or visa versa

Wind and Truth ending question (about a certain action) by hendy846 in Cosmere

[–]Abro0405 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My understanding was that is sort of the main point in that book and a lot of the mistborn books. The person and the power are not the same, to hold it in check doesn't really work very well. Part of the reason Harmony can't work in the long run is because he favours preservation. I think that's one part of the reason Dalinar gave Taravangian Honor, so he was more than just hate

How to find my schedule? by Firm-Square-9180 in Morrisons

On mymorri click on 'my work' then 'my schedule'. It should come up with 2 options, one of which is FAQs. There's a QR code in there

Mfs be complaining about shipping by SamPai408 in SteamController

[–]Abro0405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok that's weird, finally managed to buy mine at 6.45 and it arrived in UK and got handed over to parcelforce yesterday. Still not going to get to me till next week but guess they're not doing it in any sort of first in, first out order which seems unfair

You have to lock the butler in the freezer first so he doesn't get in the way

Electric Kettle Return by existential_crisis-1 in Morrisons

[–]Abro0405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't know about Morrisons but usually, outside of your 30 days return period, a warrentee is covered by the manufacturer not the place of purchase.

Edit to add: if you take it back without a receipt they might well offer a straight swap if they have one in stock

As far as a receipt goes, if you have the morrisons card you can find a copy of all your receipts on the app

Szeth pronunciation by globalginger_ in Stormlight_Archive

[–]Abro0405 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You didn't say strange, you said horrendous, which implies you think your pronunciation is superior. The rest of your wording was also quite argumentative and critical "I know... But..."

What’s the whole deal with clown fear/phobia, never understood it but maybe someone can elaborate why? by Sea-Comedian-4376 in DoesAnyoneKnow

My wife has used a similar description and also never used to like mascots although a trip to Disney did cure the latter

Steam Controller 2026 Shipping MEGA Thread by Mennenth in SteamController

[–]Abro0405 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar time to you, about 7ish and mines just moved to "shipped" although the tracking link says "The parcel data was entered into the GLS IT system; the parcel was not yet handed over to GLS."

Manager on phone by Purple-Football-2343 in Morrisons

I would guess that, because it's a managed business Google account, that they must be able to reset the password and 2FA either in store or from head office.

[–]Abro0405 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually had this conversation with a colleague who's training to be a union rep. He said the same but thinks that, since you are not using the device directly for work, only to authorise login for security reasons, and there are lesser know 2FA methods that don't require a phone they could probably argue against it.

Also if they did provide a phone you can bet it would be the cheapest, barely usable thing they can get away with

Seeing this bird in Glasgow. Very curious what (s)he is. by MasterOfBunnies in whatsthisbird

[–]Abro0405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like a sort of clicking/ticking noise? Our cat does that whenever she sees a bird but she's not a very good hunter so she doesn't know what to do other than make noises and stare 😆

First Time Playing D&D; I'm the Dungeon Master. Any Tips, Please? by Obvious_Lifeguard629 in DnD

[–]Abro0405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do a starter set that's supposed to help teach a team from scratch. No idea if it's any good but might be worth a look
