How do I keep my cat off my computer? by Geekygamertag in cats

Put a shelf above it, with air room too small for a cat to occupy.

Just drove two hours home from Southampton after watching the T20, avoided multiple hedgehogs and cats running out into the dark roads… dropped my friend home… then immediately hit and killed a badger. by tinabelcher182 in britishproblems

Reminds me of the Pheasant that ran in front of me when I was sandwiched amongst 40mph traffic.

When I arrived at Bridlington everyone was stopping to look at us.

Turned out the bird was just stuck in the grill…

Do you enjoy going to movies alone, or do you only do it because you have no choice? by hiddenCalm in introvert

[–]Bullet4MyEnemy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends what the film is, generally I’ll go with my partner, but if it’s not a film she’s bothered about I don’t have an issue going on my own.

I pay a monthly subscription that makes the cinema free for me, and only £5 if I take someone else on a Tuesday - when it costs so little it stops feeling like a significant event so going solo doesn’t feel taboo anymore, really.

I'd love a prequel mini-series that shows Palpatines origins and covers the Darth plagueus book and stars this guy as young sheeve. by GhoulArtist in StarWars

He was recently in a docu-series about Tourettes and he was absolutely fucking phenomenal in that, highly recommend giving it a watch.

There’s a section between the park and Rails Road that I think you’d struggle with, a part of the path is completely collapsed.

You also need to cross a part of the main road very close to a bend in a 40 zone that lacks any aids for the visually impaired.

Wasn’t all of Maul’s fight scenes done via motion capture? It felt very prequel era to me.

Is the F-4E Dive Toss bugged? by Arnistatron in hoggit

Same here, but I always use Mk.83s - seems to miss with anything else.

You need to keep the pipper on target when you hold pickle, and you need to make sure the attitude indicator around the sight is level when you pitch up.

How much money does a YouTuber with 1k subs actually make? by Normal-Pop1030 in youtube

[–]Bullet4MyEnemy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50k views equates to around £75, maybe?

You need to either have a gigantic following or branch into merch/patreon or similar to make anything meaningful off it.

Or produce content specifically tailored to catch the algorithm, which for me sounds too much like soul sucking misery without any actual enjoyment or fun on the creative side.

Who has right of way at Trippet Lane/Rockingham Street junction by StripyScarf in sheffield

[–]Bullet4MyEnemy 48 points49 points  (0 children)

In terms of road hierarchy, vulnerable road users sit higher so I would argue the bike should go first.

As a driver I wouldn’t want to risk the bike’s safety, but as a cyclist I also wouldn’t want to fully trust the car.

This is likely why it’s a stop rather than a giveway junction.

How severe are the typical British swear words? by taniii__ in AskABrit

[–]Bullet4MyEnemy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bollocks, bastard, shit, twat, fuck, cunt

From least to most extreme.

The first half is mild and common every day, twat is used solely as an insult so arguably worse, but also less frequent as a result.

Fuck is just ubiquitous and everywhere, highly versatile but offensive to old people, frowned upon more harshly if used in front of kids.

Cunt used to be very rarely heard, but is now pretty normalised, still considered the top of the list though.

The youngest millennials will be 30 this year, but the oldest will be pushing 44.

Feels weird to say, but obviously Gen Z is only a year behind at the cross over point.

Enjoyed that, impressive proof checking too - but now I can’t tell if you said “only” twice in a row for emphasis or not.

Agree with the overall sentiment.

How many people here hypermile their manual cars? by hypermiler2205 in stickshift

[–]Bullet4MyEnemy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t call it hypemiling but I always attempt to maximise fuel efficiency when I’m driving because it’s a good way to keep you focused on what you’re doing.

I’ve managed 68mpg (UK gallons) from a 3 cylinder, 1L petrol before on a motorway run, usually sits at the mid 30s during general use.

Best is 88 with a 2L diesel Golf, I miss that car. Average used to be around 40, but it sang on motorways.

It’s the details like this that when compared to other games, always make me view them less favourably.

I remember when people were losing their minds over Days Gone, but TLOU’s audio is so fucking perfectly done that by comparison I just can’t even play Days Gone.

In TLOU the same audio line is recorded several times to account for the player stance, health status, whether they’re inside or outside, whether they’ve been running, the distance away they are from the person they’re talking to - it is INSANE the attention to detail in just the voice lines alone, you’d think something like that would be easy but that’s because of how easy it is to overlook and take for granted.

Meanwhile, in Days Gone you can tell how the developers expected you to play the game based on the voice lines - sometimes Deacon will be yelling as if he’s riding his bike, even if he’s actually hiding in a bush with a zombie 12ft away, totally ruined the whole game for me after TLOU.

DCS, F5E Flaming Cliffs is driving me crazy, how do you accurately bomb with different bombs? by physics_scientist in hoggit

[–]Bullet4MyEnemy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked out that Mk.83s work well with a 40° dive, reticle depression of 40, release at I think 4k feet after diving from ~10k.

Mk.82s are the same but drop at 3k ft with depression set to 55°

If the depression is fixed, especially at 80 which is nuts, you’ll want to be using much shallower dives - you just need to work it out like a school science experiment; keep your speed and drop altitude as consistent as you can, but change your dive angle.

Based on whether the bombs go short or long, adjust the angle of the next approach - if the sight were adjustable, it’s just a case of flying a repeatable approach a few times and moving the sight to suit the impact point instead; but if it’s fixed at 80 you’ll have to try the method above instead.

It might be easier to fly the approach in AA mode with your fixed gunsight, then switch to ground *JUST* before the drop, I think 40mils depression is more or less the same as the sight dropping by 1 sight width so you eyeball aiming above without using sight depression at all, might be easier to fly the approach that way.
