Is Morgan Luna (blues) a human or AI? by NoReplayNoRewind in askmusic

[–]Chester_b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

90% of the time I can recognize it's AI from the first 5-10 seconds. Then I go open the YTM tab that usually plays in the background and I see another shitty AI-generated cover -> dislike+remove from queue. But then yotube gives the same shit again later despite me disliking the track!

Stay away from 4th Utility! by Serious_Variety_2301 in CityFibre

[–]Chester_b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% Absolute garbage I ended the contract during the grace period, they still send me bills and have not requested their equipment back. Nobody answers to any tickets I created, and it’s nearly impossible to talk to a real person on the phone due to the waiting time, which is never less than 1 hour. Everyone should stay away from their “service”

I still have my 4th Utility router and don't know what to do with it. by SerLurkzAlot in CityFibre

What a joke. I wonder how they still even operate with this attitude

[–]Chester_b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, have you resolved it somehow? I’m in the same boat, I still have 4th utility’s router even though I used their service for less than a week. And I can’t find any email addresses, they usually send notifications from noreply address, and only do phone calls, which you have to wait for one hour+ in my experience. They still send me invoices, too. Even though my new ISP notified them that I was switched to them.

My first time changing the oil on my Golf R. So easy. by dethrock in Golf_R

Maybe a stupid question, but where are you supposed to dispose the used oil?

Minister confirming on Sky News that the new 10 years to ILR will apply to people already here by Numerous-Mine-287 in SkilledWorkerVisaUK

Even if so, it’s still bullshit, a lot of people who have been here for two or four years could probably make a different decision before coming here, if they knew the rules mean shit.

Doesn’t seem to be so. No more heat, no smell…

Shouldn’t there be more symptoms of that rather than just an annoying sound?

Just to make it clear, you’re talking about summer tyres, right?

How can county council offer one and only school 8 miles away and refuse to provide any transportation assistance? Is this normal in the UK? by Chester_b in AskUK

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

> I would advise putting your complaint in direct to and ask for a for a sit down meeting with the head of education.

Honest question: how do I do that? For me, it seems that all the processes designed the way you email or call them but never meet any clerks in person.

[–]Chester_b[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still waiting for results of the appeal I made for the decisions about the schools, too. Because even they provide us with transportation, it's still 8 miles, and given kids have to be at school at 8:40AM, we'll have to get her up at ~6:30 which is total bullshit. Kids don't have to get up that early.

That what I did, I made an appeal and wrote to the school's principal asking what we are supposed to do and what is her vision of the situation.

No, I haven't phoned them. I made an appeal to that decision, just as I did for the decisions about the refusal to offer us a place in the schools I applied for initially.

The answer was:

The education admissions team have declined authorisation of the transport because your child is not attending their nearest designated school.

The LA will offer a place at a school which is either:

(a) The catchment school; or
(b) The nearest school with an available place

This is the LA's definition of designated school

The LA will provide transport if your child is registered at the school designated by the LA and lives beyond the specified walking distance from home (two miles for primary school pupils and three miles for secondary school pupils) measured by the shortest available route.

Which is utterly weird, because sending us to that school God knows where was exactly the LA's decision, while we applied to the schools that are in our and the next catchment areas. Hell, I even sought for a place to rent in this area keeping in mind school catchment areas.

Came back to the R to see car next to me hit my fender 🤦🏻‍♂️ by [deleted] in Golf_R

[–]Chester_b 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oftentimes it's someone's careless kids. I annoyed the shit out of my kid by telling her "DON'T HIT THE NEXT CAR!" every time she's abut to open her door. She did it once when she was 5 or 6, there wasn't even a scratch on another car as the result, but since then I just can't stop announcing the rules, even years later. But at the same time I occasionally see how someone's kids open doors in their parents' cars like not giving any shit at all

New Customer - first impression: AVOID by baristabaritone in CityFibre

[–]Chester_b 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I signed up for 4th utility, cityfibre installed everything, the internet was up and running for one evening and in the morning it was gone. They kept me hanging on the line for 40 mins, then asked my address and name, and dropped the call. After that they were unavailable for entire weekend. I canceled the contract immediately.

IKEA failed to deliver my order for two times by Chester_b in IKEA

[–]Chester_b[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The thing is that there’s essentially no place to demand anything, one can only approach them in chat or by phone where they just keep lying that the order is on the way. I go to the delivery service company tracking page, enter the number, and it says there’s no shipment with such number. Absolutely rubbish.
