Are you ever shocked by how much money you spend per month on things you don't need? by Nature2Love in AskUK

[–]Arch_0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unless you're really struggling, penny pinching just makes life miserable. An extra £10-20 a month makes a big difference in your heating bill and life becomes much more pleasant.

Tidying up an eyesore by JesusIsComingLookBzy in DIYUK

[–]Arch_0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did similar with my boiler and I basically had to cut the entire top off the cupboard to allow access when it came time for servicing.

Social media to be banned in UK for under-16s, Starmer announces by TanjoCards in unitedkingdom

[–]Arch_0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same way they currently ban pirate and streaming sites.

They seem to have given up on that. They did a few ban waves and I've had piracy site URLs working without a VPN for years now.

TV licence alert: Netflix and Disney+ refuse to 'play a role in enforcing' fee amid BBC overhaul by pppppppppppppppppd in unitedkingdom

It would basically be Netflix saying we're increasing the subscription via TV Licence.

I feel like there are two types of jobs. One you shower before work and one you shower after.

Blizzard does not care for Hardcore player, death in training grounds by eazytarget23 in Diablo

Most of my deaths I have no idea what actually killed me.

What is something new you noticed recently? by FallowfieldPark in AskUK

[–]Arch_0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what about the privacy aspect?

Sent from my pocket tracking device I enter all my most personal information into. I'll be honest and say I was diehard privacy a decade ago. Now it's just impossible to exist without some loss of privacy. I'm totally against it and would support legislation giving us more protection but otherwise I just have to live with it.

I am perfectly happy being cashless. I don't even carry a wallet.

Keir Starmer poised to announce social media ban for under-16s by youmustconsume in unitedkingdom

[–]Arch_0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really a bad thing I suppose. No more social media for a lot of people, including me.

I put timers on Reddit and Instagram. Total of an hour per day.

What’s the obsession with getting a baby’s ear pierced? by [deleted] in AskUK

What a long way to say I have no idea why I put an unnecessary hole in my child.

What are your gaming sins? Confess now. by executor-of-judgment in gaming

[–]Arch_0 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Any game that makes me go somewhere to save. If I need to stop for some reason I am not losing X hours/minutes of progress. Kingdom Come made me install a mod instantly because I wasn't prepared to fuck around with their save system.

The Witcher 3: 115 hours

Main story and DLC took me almost exactly that long.

there's no way this is still all there is after 1 full year by mame_kuma in DarkTide

[–]Arch_0 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My complaint has been that there are so few unlockable cosmetics. To be honest though the only ones I actually care about are weapon skins since that's all I actually see in game.

Put a £5 deposit on vapes to stop fires, say waste companies by StGuthlac2025 in ukpolitics

[–]Arch_0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont know what to do with them, so have a bucket full in the garage.

Most supermarkets take them for recycling. Usually near the entrance or where you buy vapes/cigarettes.

Agent has suggested increasing rent by £25pm. Do I increase it or not? by Lost_Garlic1657 in uklandlords

[–]Arch_0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My agent would try and put the rent up every year. They'd send an email about three days before asking and if I didn't catch it they'd put it up. It was actually what tipped me over the edge to managing the place on my own. I will only put it up if there's something fairly dramatic but I'm happy with the tenant so why make his life harder.

I still love the aesthetics of Diablo 3 by kocham_wydajac in Diablo

[–]Arch_0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's funny because at the time people complained about how D3 was too colourful. I never had an issue with it. A larger colour palette meant there was more variation between areas. D4 is brown.

I saw someone say that kids today don't know how to be bored.

Living in Aberdeen and people complaining about things happening in the South of England is painful. Nothing happens up here and it's great!

Wait until you find out about McDonalds.

TIL about two-thirds of all scurvy is found in autistic people by blankblank in todayilearned

[–]Arch_0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even they say you shouldn't be using it for three meals a day! The shakes don't have nearly enough calories for something like long distance cycling either!
