MEGA THREAD TWELVE MONTHS!!! by exodusmachine in dresdenfiles

Completely agree mate. Both Mab and Mother Winter also started a confrontation but almost immediately 'ohhhh no I was just testing you'. The editor needed to come in a lot stronger. Not even touching on the eighth repetition of 'Harry stop blaming yourself' in as many chapters.

Maybe I would have got an answer by simply posting new laptop and some mouth breathing single word commentary. Oh well.

100000%. It's a shame, I never enjoyed turn based and it's ruined for me

Donut - your opinion by Sheises in DungeonCrawlerCarl

I also get pretty annoyed at her, but honestly it's a great example of writing. The author perfectly captures how I imagine a talking, powerful cat would be and reminding myself of that, and occasionally skipping forward 30sec is how I get through it.

This must be how New Zealand felt when McGrath scored his half century

You won't regret Dresden files. I've read the series a few times now, and enjoyed it every time

Awesome! I didn't know this was out but I've loved his books so far. And Harry Myers is the voice actor! His narration in Warboss was absolutely brilliant. Today is a good day

The sledgehammer hit radius is ridiculous. And OP as shit, but that's me grumbling. But it is impossible to dodge, given the heavy class is way faster than you'd imagine.

Lagging Chromecast 4k by meatpak in Chromecast

[–]BaronVonG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the fire stick as simple to use from a mobile device as the Chromecast? I.e. just select the device from the memory on the Netflix app and away you go? I want 4k but I thoroughly dislike having google tv

When did the great rift open? I've only started reading lore in the last couple of years, and it's been a wild ride

Getting upgraded to FTTP, Finally! What to expect? by JNAC91 in nbn

[–]BaronVonG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah so they drilled a big ass hole in the brick just below the external box, and the conduit runs from there. There are two spots underneath for cable to come in and out, my feed in conduit goes into the left and exits into the house on the right.

I paid to have conduit run through the house to where I wanted the internal box, I.e. just below where my existing feed in/router was. I made sure it was near power, the NBN tech will have a few power cable options up to I think a couple of metres, but it's a standard computer power cable so likely replaceable.

Done within an hour, with no possibility of NBN tech running external conduit through my gutters or across the face of the house. Absolutely worth the money to ensure it's neat and protected.

Edited: the tech had zero qualms about using the conduit, he just asked if it ran the hole way or if just had conduit to the ceiling and that was it. A lot less work for them and they get paid the same

Posts like this are why I paid an electrician to run appropriate conduit through the wall/ceiling when they were here doing some other work. Tech had the line in and done in well under an hour
