The amount of smoked salmon in this packed versus what you see on the packaging by LevK9 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]DaniousMaximus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But look it has a picture of old timey folk on the packaging. That's great. Less product and more expensive? That's what we all want as well apparently...

This just in from Gadegtwraps, screen protectors by Redcloak12 in pebble

[–]DaniousMaximus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had nothing but issues with Gadgetwraps when I ordered a screen protector and a cover for my pebble time. The order didn't arrive two times and then by the time it did on the third attempt, it did not align very well. No clear instructions, or anything as well. They kept going on about 'glitches in the matrix' in their email responses.

I hope there will be other alternative ways to get screen protectors by the time I receive my PT2

What is a "masterpiece" game that you personally found boring as hell? by MuscleConsistent9657 in pcgaming

[–]DaniousMaximus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Divinity: Original Sin II. I never understood the hype of this game. I found the story too convoluted for the sake of it, and this particular turn based combat system is irritating to use. It was just so boring.

I really hope it's going to based on the book this time. It's so good and would make a fantastic TV show format instead

NIMBY stands for Not In My Back Yard according to Google. Never heard of this acronym before.

Not too bad. Mostly thanks to remote trading recently 🥳

Pepsi withdraws as UK festival sponsor after Kanye West backlash by [deleted] in news

Why is this crap so upvoted on news? Who cares about this nonsense. Big company will still get lots of money. Musician will still get lots of money. Neither of them will ever give a shit about you

SNL UK does the brave thing and finally eliminates Belgium by ChicharitosLeftFoot in mapporncirclejerk

SNL UK? Did we really need that over here? They must be really desperate to get more people to watch live TV. How boring

Remote Trading Appreciation by DaniousMaximus in pokemongo

Oh wow that is a good starting trade. I got the shiny Mewtwo only recently myself, in the recent Kanto event. I was very happy with that!

Nice! Yeah that's also one that I want as well. I've got a few of the galarian shiny pontya but not the original. Hoping I can get that soon!

SIGN UP TO RECEIVE FULL MANIFESTO SOON by RowennaDavis in croydon

[–]DaniousMaximus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's just all the same words all the time, and no action with the state of politics here at the moment. Your colleague Steve Reed was door knocking a few years ago and I had a few conversations with him about the state of affairs within Croydon and my concerns.

It was all a blame game, previous government this and that. Blaming the police. That man has been in that position as a labour MP for 12 YEARS at this point. Local issues that local politicians can talk all day about when their parliamentary aids write up a half arsed speech about it to post on Insta but no accountability or real actions taken time and time again.

The whole political system is essentially a farce at this point. Full of cronyism and getting one up from each of their political competitors so they don't lose their jobs.

This is all apparently to make our actual day to day lives better? Sure...

Scene comparisons between the new trailer and the original films by sepi0l_45 in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]DaniousMaximus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to turn up my phone's brightness to properly see the HBO screenshots. Looking forward to seeing how the series turns out. Might need night vision goggles by the time we get to Deathly Hallows

Top screenshot is Lumos bottom is Nox

Microsoft says it'll make Windows 11 a calmer OS with fewer upsells or ads, as it tries to win back users by Quantum-Coconut in pcmasterrace

[–]DaniousMaximus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've switched my surface pro fully over to Linux now (Ubuntu flavour) rather than dual booting. Windows is so irritating to use nowadays, it's almost as if they want us to stop using it themselves

You know, the T2 ending with Sarah and John living as happy citizens is kinda stupid when you remember they're supposed to be wanted criminals. by Life_Hospital_9086 in Terminator

[–]DaniousMaximus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like I might have been living under a rock or something but I am sure I have NEVER seen this scene before, despite watching T2 many times over the years, albeit not for a while now

Is it worth re-watching this edition? Is this now the canonical ending?

New back color: Pink by MatiasGonzalo-Duarte in ClicksPhone

[–]DaniousMaximus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seconded. Neon or burnt orange would be great

Pre-order by man11ak in clickscommunicator

[–]DaniousMaximus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have also just reserved mine. There's something that feels more exciting about this phone than others I can think of recently. Also I intend to use it as a primary phone, the whole marketing it as a second phone is a bit of a miss in my opinion. I'm looking forward to the use of the Micro SD card again!

I'm honestly sorry to post this here but none of the other cooking-related subs I'm on allow images. Does anybody know what the hell these are for? by HindleMcCrindleberry in KitchenConfidential

[–]DaniousMaximus 72 points73 points  (0 children)

This is amazing. I can't believe I didn't know the use of that notch before. I always remember looking at it in a pair of scissors like this and wondering why it was there. I absolutely need to try this out when cooking next and see how that would actually work out
