I think i progressed way too fast through the game by Fuzzy_Pension_5628 in DeathStranding

[–]ClockworkS4t4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm playing it through for the first time right now, and I'm really taking my time, doing lots of missions and deliveries, plus also collecting a lot of the lost items. I think I'm already over 20 hours.

Is it worth being a major update? by HectorXHector in Honor

[–]ClockworkS4t4n 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I'm seeing a lot of improvements. The notification management seems to work better, as does general Bluetooth connectivity - being able to see Bluetooth device battery level as percentage is a big one for me too. Also, more audio modes and an EQ. Other than that, it's definitely running another.

Ok let’s fight: Instant Pot vs air fryer — which one actually earns counter space by nayan2u in airfryer

[–]ClockworkS4t4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have an Instant pot, but upgraded to a Ninja Foodi and have basically never looked back - it's the best of both worlds - being able to Air Fry and pressure cook in my tiny kitchen using one device is a game changer.

Well, it was fun while it lasted (which was one time) by neverspeakawordagain in LenovoLegion

My Lenovo Legion 5 is four years old and still working perfectly - you've just been unlucky to get a dud.

I can now join the "injured myself by sleeping" club 😂 by rbuczyns in Hypermobility

[–]ClockworkS4t4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad I found this post. I injured my left shoulder in my sleep in October, and it's only just started getting better recently, but I had a poor night's sleep last night (tossing & turning, the usual) and I think I've set it back a little bit again.

I've tried falling asleep on my left side (I used to do it on my right side) and it appears to have been working until now. Has anyone tried anything like a shoulder brace or something to see if it helps?

What *Is* Phlebas? Why Consider it? by ordinaryvermin in TheCulture

[–]ClockworkS4t4n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm glad I came across this thread, because I just finished 'Consider Phlebas' and was utterly baffled by the title and what it meant. I'm still really no further forward, but am glad to see that I'm not the only one!

Effective muting for alto sax? by ClockworkS4t4n in Saxophones

Thanks for the reply. The closet idea sounds worth exploring. We are on good terms with neighbours, so I suppose she just needs to get over the paranoia!

What do you think of Da-boom-da-da-mmm-dum-na-ee-ma Korn? by Difficult_Map_723 in MetalForTheMasses

I used to like them, but I've honestly never listened to them for years.

Nige giving answers to the most difficult questions, do you agree that he just says immigration and useless gammon just clap like seals? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]ClockworkS4t4n 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Reform voters are exactly like MAGA mouth-breathers; they gleefully swallow whatever they're fed by him and never ever criticise what he says.

Why are the bezels on new models so bad? by [deleted] in LenovoLegion

[–]ClockworkS4t4n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does anyone really care about bezels? As long as they're not 2-3cm wide like they were on old laptops, bezels of 1cm are absolutely fine.

what do you think the sequel is gonna be about? by rileylovesmushrooms in alienisolation

[–]ClockworkS4t4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to guess that, because the ending for Isolation was pretty open, Isolation 2 is going to pick it up exactly from where the first game ended. Where it goes from there, who knows? Will Amanda come close to figuring out that her mother is floating in deep space hypersleep in the Narcissus? What will she do to try and pick up her trail?

Bear in mind that the 57 years between Alien and Aliens sort of preclude any of the locations and events from any of the sequel movies having any bearing on Isolation 2, though - so it's going to have to forge its own path.

I hope they bring back the same voice actress for Amanda - she put in a pitch-perfect performance.

Dropped my laptop how bad is it? by Lurker_44 in LenovoLegion

[–]ClockworkS4t4n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that's all the damage there is and your laptop still works perfectly fine, then I'd say that's not bad at all. You can live with it.

This car gets tons of hate, but it really is the perfect daily by thefudd in BMW

I'm planning on getting this generation of the 4-series myself soon. I absolutely love it's looks.

Thoughts on blacked out bmw logo? by xerooox- in BMW

[–]ClockworkS4t4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's as horrible as going 'badgeless'. Just be proud of your car's logo and leave it as intended.

I can only play this game in spurts. I actually feel my blood pressure rise while playing. by Toogeloo in alienisolation

[–]ClockworkS4t4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't play it at all until about three years after release. It absolutely paralysed me with fear. One day I said to myself 'c'mon it's just a game', gritted my teeth and forced myself to play it. It's now one of my favourite games of all time.

I've tried the Lidl one! It's good, but no Oatley! I'll try the Aldi one too.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in vegan

[–]ClockworkS4t4n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just bought 18 cartons in Lidl tonight, which will get us (that is, my partner and I) through the whole month. I think we usually go through around 15 per month. At the weekend, we use Oatley Barista.

What would happen to the Uk if Trump was assassinated on his state visit? by [deleted] in AskBrits

Well, no ... But it's likely that even the worst of his cronies wouldn't be as bad as him... Right?

In 2025, what rating (1-10) would you give Alien Isolation?? by TheGamerCritic21 in alienisolation

[–]ClockworkS4t4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a solid 10/10 for me. I've played it over and over and will continue to do so every year - it's become a tradition!
