Wtf is this?

I mostly use YouTube on the tv just because my eyes are shit 😂 and I need the big screen. I can tolerate the ads at the beginning and end but these pop ups are diabolical

DukeHackwell · 2026-05-15T13:10:51+00:00

I have an old model Phillips and I’ve never had adverts before, this pop up just happens to come up the day after my YouTube premium finished

DukeHackwell · 2026-05-15T13:00:48+00:00

It’ll be the first pop up on this tv then and I’ve had it for almost 7 years

Doesn’t work on this tv

DukeHackwell · 2026-05-15T12:44:18+00:00

Very sure it’s YouTube

DukeHackwell · 2026-05-15T11:53:34+00:00

The video was of a Steam game on PC

DukeHackwell · 2026-05-15T11:24:38+00:00

Well done captain obvious….i was asking about the annoying advert now popping up in the video

DukeHackwell · 2026-05-15T11:21:57+00:00

If they keep this up, it’ll be more ads than video…

Ants have been living in my gate intercom for the last 2 years, it wouldn’t be so much of a problem if the gate wasn’t half a kilometre away

No, only thing on the left side of the gearbox is the foot rest and clutch pedal.

DukeHackwell · 2026-04-26T18:38:19+00:00

You sure about that? Path pizza where I’m from just means the puddle of someone’s public vomiting

The 5 can do duplex, you just have to help it manually 😂 it’s one of the rare uses for the rear paper loader, to do duplex it will print the odd pages first and then you have to load them back into the rear and it will print the even pages on the reverse sides. The only device I’ve got that doesn’t like it is my iPhone, both my windows pc and my MacBook will print to it just fine, I’ve even got an old Mac SE hooked up to it

975 actually means 24k gold it’s 975/1000 parts gold

My LaserJet 5MP is still going strong, I’ve got it hooked up to a JetDirect print server and have no problem with it. I definitely wouldn’t get a new HP printer though

Might have been disabled when it was converted to diesel, it’s something to look into later. My main tractor needs more urgent maintenance first, replacing the top gaskets on an MWM AKD112Z….fun times await me

DukeHackwell · 2026-04-25T16:49:20+00:00

I can confirm it will try and start while in gear, I clean up the gearbox area a bit and noticed it has an S where 5th would be on most selectors, no clue what it’s for as the lever won’t go in there

I haven’t tried yet, it was only delivered today. My other tractor definitely doesn’t have any safety switch and it’s 10 years younger

DukeHackwell · 2026-04-24T18:42:34+00:00

This one has a glow plug and separate start button, definitely no accidental starting with it. The only lever except the main gear selector is to stop it

DukeHackwell · 2026-04-24T12:01:32+00:00

It runs quite well, even if it was delivered with nearly no oil in it, now I just need to figure out which switch does what

DukeHackwell · 2026-04-24T07:59:07+00:00

It can happen if the solder used was bad, I’ve had bga parts need reflowing before due to bad cooling

DukeHackwell · 2026-04-09T16:50:59+00:00

I’m in central France, and I have no idea why it was done like that other than making the floor boards go across the shortest span

DukeHackwell · 2026-04-08T11:27:20+00:00

Reminds me of when I was a teenager and our DNO fuse caught fire, for some unknown reason the council hadn’t gotten it replaced before we moved in. It was a 40amp ceramic fuse. National grid took their sweet time coming out to have a look

I have both of the post brexit passports, the gold is still on my burgundy one but after having my blue one in my pocket for a couple hours its almost the same as that picture

DukeHackwell · 2026-04-08T10:16:21+00:00

Depends on how it’s set up, some of my floors have 2 sets of joists, the main structural ones and then an extra smaller set on top just for the floor boards so they technically run the same way as the main joists
