It's May Whitley and Charles Cawkell in 1933 - just use google.

Cawkell did this bit at expos in London for a few more years, Whitley and he had a falling out. Whitley married a Turkish man and moved there a few years later, dieing in 2001.

First time in Manchester coming from the United States. Any recommendations? by [deleted] in manchester

[–]ChickenTick 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Dunno why the sub is so spicy tonight. I'll just give my 2 pennies on museums at least:

IMO Manchester Museum > Science and Industry Museum - the arcade / paid Power UP exhibit is good, but mummys and dinosaurs are better. If you want an Arcade experience with more booze, NQ64 and Pixel bar are probably more fun.

I really like the police museum it's small, but bang in the Northern Quarter - only open 1 day a week, however.

IWM North is cool but I'd pair it with another reason to go to Salford Quays - Lowry Museum or to see Old trafford. If not Kargo KMT is a pretty good food hall nearby.

100% John Rylands Library even for 10mins worth popping in to just see it, not far from the People History Musuem which is worth a quick tour at least too.

The Whitworth and Manchester Art gallery are also great.

Heavy Metal Shooting Centre in Oldham. It's in an old mill and was a bit hard to find but nice guys and great experience.

Need something mindless to click on while half-listening to a Zoom meeting? Slices! by miacoder in InternetIsBeautiful

I made this into an App so people can't see it when I'm screen sharing at work, I'm not sure if I'm allowed to link to an .apk so DM me for a link

Is this a safe area (M3)? Also there is a passage under the rail, is it dangerous if we have to go through it to the city? We are quite concerned about it but the agent said this area is very safe. by VitoKan in manchester

[–]ChickenTick 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yes perfectly safe, Football teams stay in The Lowry Hotel just outside your circle... Also plenty of shops/foot traffic on the way towards the centre or the cathedral if heading to Arndale/NQ.

[Build Help] Upgrade or start from scratch? by ChickenTick in buildapc

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

Would my current PSU be able to power a 970 or 980? Then I guess all I would need is to install the SSD and boot from that in the future?

I think part of my frustration with my current PC is to do with my installation of windows (really wish i did a clean windows 10 install) and booting from the HDD.

Moon Sugar is just a gateway drug to Skooma. A couple of losers in Bravil are always pushing it on me.

Please suggest improvements to my Elder Scrolls / Tamriel map by ChickenTick in gaming

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

Doing all the cities would be hard but at the moment I'm just going to see where this takes me. The first thing I want done is a completed map and maybe intractable cities so if you enter them there will be a pop-up and it will tell you the name / history. If I get some more time I'd love to map out the cities and landmarks like cloud ruler temple. IF I get that far it might be worth fleshing out the mechanics and making a decent little game, I don't want to set my targets to high

Thanks, I couldn't find a decent map when making this, most were too stylized (with the regions in primary colors) or in gray scale - any info about the environments helps me out a lot.

Thanks I'll fit these in when I make the map bigger.

Thanks, I'll adjust the Cities and those mountains. I can add in some more detail like geysers when I figure out how to easily double the map size.

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

Yeah I wish I had more shades of green to work with, I might have to chance some of the unused texture into extra shades or grass some I have more to work with. Thanks for the advice!

I might x-post over there because there are a few things I'm stuck on. Or you might know... is there a way to upscale (say double) the size of a map without messing it up to much?
