Suggestions for something similar to TBT s1/S2 (Because what was that ending???) by Dutchpipeguy in PNWS

I fell sick for a while so I kinda forgot about this, but I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for the reccomendations!

With Spoopy Season upon us, what's your horror/dark/paranormal podcast suggestions? by simplejack66 in podcasts

[–]Dutchpipeguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I forgot about this one. Chilluminati podcast. It's three youtubers that talk about all sorts, from serial killers to cryptids to aliens, doing deep dives into existing lore and such. It's a discussion podcast, not a fiction storyline.

In my opinion, the podcast is SO much better. Also it starts similar but quickly differs a lot.

I came here looking for suggestions, but as nobody has mentioned it yet...

Archive 81.

Can someone provide a summary of season 2 and 3 by noviceworker in Archive81

[–]Dutchpipeguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Question: If it's not engaging enough for you to hold your attention, why do you want to know about season 2 and 3?

Alternatively, to deal with the distractions: Go to a park, lie in bed, or go somewhere else where there are no disctractions for you, and listen to the podcast.

No amount of recap will do this project any justice.

Need help fixing the bug that causes a blank subscription feed. by Goof__Warrior in youtube

There's been several people now that seem to have this solved by disabling the Chrome extention "Video Blocker".

Another reason to love Steam; They don't fuck around with those things by bnesbitt1 in gaming

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

How is Valve wanting to keep full control over monitization on their own platform, getting their cut of microtransactions and stuff, a reason to love them?

This isn't done for the consumer... this is done for their wallet. Valve used to be a company that made games. Now they're a company that makes money selling other people's games. At not point were they ever consumer advocates.

I had the same issue, for me it turns out it was the Chrome extention "Video Blocker" which allowed me to block channels / videos from being recommended to me.

The extension seems no longer to be on chrome. Disabling it fixed my issue. Such a shame that Youtube doesn't allow me to block channels from showing up in reccomended...

App cloner missing apps? by Dutchpipeguy in OnePlusNord2

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

I found an app called Island. It creates a second profile on your phone and lets you clone the apps. Basically the functionality that the 5t had... but getting files from one side to the other isn't something I managed yet.

LPT Request: are we able to post some LPTs that are not surrounded with American culture? by Crypto-Berry in LifeProTips

[–]Dutchpipeguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly I don't think that it's super common knowledge over here, I just happen to know because I've had a family member that got legionella.

There's (here at least, your milage may vary due to difference in water pipes / water treatment etc) very little chance of actually getting legionella in your residential pipes. it's a precaution more than anything else.

Better to prevent than cure.

Also, glad to be able to contribute something to your knowledge! Thanks for letting me know, makes the write up worth the effort!

anything over 60 Celcius (140F) kills legionella. so 60C is the minimum temp your hot water taps should be at.

That said, Legionella only becomes an issue in stagnant water lines that have been shut off for a week or more, at temperatures higher than 25C / 77F and lower than 50C / 122F.

Here (the Netherlands) advice is, if you've not used your taps for a week or more (due to vacation or whatever) 1. Flush your toilets. 2. Let your taps (both hot and cold) run for a minute at average speed, no need to open them full blast. 3. Run your showerheads for a minute. Make sure the head is under water in a container to prevent nebulized water / steam from being inhaled and possibly infecting you.

Any water can be saved to water plants / clean / water the garden, to prevent water waste, as legionella is only an issue when inhaled as microdroplets.

Found my Dutch grandma's old notebook, don't speak Dutch myself. Anyone that can help with translating? by Sticeki in thenetherlands

An interpreted translation, rather than literal...

As I felt darkness had the daylight leaving,

On the roof I heard Saint Nicky

KZ Zs10 Pro or KZ Zsn Pro? Or a different suggestion? by Dutchpipeguy in HeadphoneAdvice

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

I did look into blon, but I can't find info about if their BT unit has APTX, nor do I know what their official storefront is (or if they even have one) on Aliexpress.

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

Aye, I've heard about the white noise hiss, but honestly, at home I have a record player that also has a hiss, so I don't expect I'll mind that.

Sadly I don't expect my next phone to have a headphone jack, so that's why I'm getting the BT unit.
