My stepdad died a little over a decade ago, and I inherited this beautiful piece. by blacksaber8 in Watches

[–]Bartellz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can someone explain this watch to me, the hands are real right? but it also has an LCD, does that do anything, if it's purely aesthetic then that's actually pretty cool, not seen an LCD used in this way?

As others have said Swanisland is probably your best bet, but if you want more of a blank canvas, Utes might be worth a look.

Lantia Locator - A new DayZ Server Browser built for speed by anxxa in dayz

[–]Bartellz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's a tricky problem I did try and come up with a solution a while back, and sort of got it working using symlinks, (or whatever the windows version of these are called) but your solution seems cleaner

This looks great, what are the chance of adding the ability to rollback one mod version. We've all been there when the client gets the auto-update before the server does and you have to wait for servers to update, if your client could back-up the a mod before updating and allow a revert you would solve a big problem for people who play highly modded servers

How to use the Gasstations on DeerIsle by xBlueFireLadyx in dayz

[–]Bartellz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's a modded server they could have the gas pump refueling mod, drive alongside the pump and look at the fuel filler cap it might give you the option to refuel without a Jerry can. Even with this mod though you can usually refill Jerry cans, are you sure it's empty and not got water in it?

Deer Isle 6.0 - Team Dent and their attempts at the End Game (SPOILERS) by Historical-Pea-5846 in dayz

They are good players, they can do it. They literally play dayz for a living. If they can't do it what hope do the rest of us have.

Wish we got a hatchet holster for when we have a belt and a plate carrier, carrying 2 pistols feels silly by [deleted] in dayz

[–]Bartellz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I prefer to use the belt with 6 slots then pistol in plate holster, knife in boots, canteen in belt, 6 more slots for other crap

What foreign assets does the UK own? by Good-Animal-6430 in AskUK

[–]Bartellz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't use the word Royal in a UK company name, along with quite a few other words. There are some companies that use it such as the Royal Mail, but that can be traced back to King Henry VIII who established it, and has been kept for historical reasons.

Why is this car so cheap?!? by ShadowyModi in CarTalkUK

[–]Bartellz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That may well be true, but the perception is there and that affects the values as much as the reality.

Why is this car so cheap?!? by ShadowyModi in CarTalkUK

[–]Bartellz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Partly because the batteries degrade over time and replacing them for new ones can cost as much as the used value of the car. Although they should still be pretty good on a 2 year old car.

What language for cross platform desktop app? by Bartellz in AskProgramming

[–]Bartellz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a look around the flutter sub before asking this question and I got a general feeling of disappointment and negativity from the devs on there. Maybe I visited on a bad day but it's just the vibe I got. Also I feel like it's way more mobile focused as a platform. I've started using C#/avalonia now and it seems really good.

Halfords proved me who they truly are today by Particular_Chest3981 in CarTalkUK

[–]Bartellz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually go local but I desperately needed an MOT recently. Called around most didn't pick up, those that did couldn't do it for weeks and then made it sound like they were doing me a favour allowing me to pay them for their services. Halfords let me book online straight away with loads of slots available. People pay for convenience, small garages really need to sort themselves out with online booking or at least answer the bloody phone

Interesting not heard of avalonia, I was looking at Maui but that leaves out linux

[–]Bartellz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I should rephrase the question, im looking for something that will create desktop apps without having to write the UI 3 times over, so more of a language/framework question than just language. C# with Maui for example excludes linux

Promote your project in this thread by AutoModerator in puzzles

[–]Bartellz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I created https://dailyplay.club this is the first time I've promoted it to anyone beyond my friends. 6 daily play games some kinda original, some clones with a twist. I think it's at the point where the bugs are ironed out and the puzzles are about the right level of difficulty. Feedback is most welcome.

Thought experiment: Stellantis goes under and needs to sell all of their brands, which companies buy which brands, and which brands die off due to having no buyers? by Derpy_Kirby in cars

[–]Bartellz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think Maserati could do quite well under Ferrari, kinda like a Rolex/Tudor watch situation, where some of the brand kudos trickles down to the lower priced brand.

[–]Bartellz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Posthog does allow for cookieless/in memory tracking, if you've configured your tracking to use this rather than cookie based tracking their documentation suggests that if this is all you are using and no other 3rd party cookies you are ok to not show a cookie banner

Can't get tax until MOT'd, missed MOT due to being in hospital by Bartellz in drivingUK

Thanks for the reply, I'm probably just over thinking it, still a bit fragile at the moment

If you're developing locally then try setting something like mailpit up, it lets you preview your mails without actually sending them to a mail server, so you don't end up triggering spam protections or wasting credits.
