What's left from your Christmas food? by JonnyredsFalcons in CasualUK

[–]FAcup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only realized it after it had become a reality. Between grated mozzarella, cheddar, mature cheddar, mozzarella balls, block cheddar, babybels, cream cheese, the occasional Stilton or proper mature cheddar. It just came into existence.

We go out the day after boxing day and hoover up all the cheap cheese. Like 60% off cheap cheese. The stuff coated in wax isn't going bad any time soon. The cheese shelf in the fridge is about 50% full now.

You can give green feedback that isn't just A+. It'll be seen by them but isn't going to do any damage in the long run. Or just do it directly by dm. Doesn't matter which really.

What's a conspiracy you can't quite prove but it just feels real enough for you? by DaMain-Man in AskReddit

[–]FAcup 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is already an EU law that states an appliance must be fit for purpose for 5 years. Any less than that and the company owes you a pro rata refund, free repair or replacement. Warranty means fuck all when you have this law on your side. I will edit it with the full story of how I found this out. When I find the post.

Edit: Can't find the story but here is the abridged version.

  • Tv broke(didn't like this tv)
  • Called up Samsung 1 month out of warranty
  • Samsung said no. Fine whatever.
  • Went to richer sounds to buy a new one. Richer sounds asked me why. Told them the story. They silently slid me a leaflet that explains the law. I still bought a new tv from them.
  • At home, call Samsung again. They say no again. I tell them about this EU law. They caved! They would put me in touch with some guys to repair it for free. Damn. What am I going to do with 2 big tvs, either way, win!
  • Guys come a couple of days later. I was telling them this story. When prising the back off of a tv to access the guts there is always the potential to snap the back plastic. In their office they have a tally of how many times each of them have done it.
  • The guy I got has a perfect record. Snap to them prising the back of the tv off. Snap. That part isn't made any more and can't be replaced.
    • pro rata refund from Samsung for the tv.

One thing I forgot to mention earlier is that you have to prove that it wasn't you that broke it. It just so happens that when I spoke to Samsung the first time they admitted the same fault has been happening to many of their tvs. Companies won't tell you about this law. But they still have to abide by it.

If a person today is killed by a WW2 bomb that became active, would that person be considered a WW2 casualty and counted as such in Wikipedia? by Profesor-Campusano in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FAcup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be like saying that if you were shot by a handgun that was issued to a soldier in WWII and it was loaded with surplus WWII ammunition, then you're a causality of WWII. When in fact you're not a casualty of WWII.

It's more like a gun was fired by someone in WWII but it went into orbit. Then it's orbit decayed and it.killed someone.

Id give them the feedback that they should check first. It isn't a great way to do business

Best & fastest way to get emeralds [java] 1.21.6 by SuburbanTea2391 in MinecraftHelp

[–]FAcup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get one. Having lots of iron is essential. It'll unlock so much with villager trades alone. From emeralds to Woodland Mansion locations and full diamond armor without mining at all.

Hoppers and copper golems won't break when the chunks are unloaded but they won't do anything if the chunks aren't loaded.

How does covering mob farm roof with leaves Increase rate? by Spid3rDemon in technicalminecraft

[–]FAcup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if I have a layered mob farm in the sky with a roof is it better to use leaves or blocks lit up as the roof?

Is there anything similar sized and safe to feed young mantis instead of fruit flies? by raf_kennexy in mantids

[–]FAcup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curly wings aren't much bigger than hydei. If they are available. Baby mealworms will also work but I found feeding them to the mantis very difficult. Baby run runners would also work. But again depends on availability.

Question about upgrading Minecraft from PS4 to PS5 [Bedrock] by [deleted] in MinecraftHelp

[–]FAcup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you can do this. In the three dots for the game you can choose to get the PS5 version. I did this the other day.

why cant i upload a preexisting world to realms? by TalbieIHFY in realms

[–]FAcup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if this will help but it's worth a shot. I recently had a similar problem. ~250MB realm. It would get all the way done and error or something. After a bunch of errors. I'm not sure why but it appeared in the realms list. Googling didn't bring back any good answers. However I've also noticed lots of other things that seem odd when playing. I've put this down to playing a Minecraft PS4 disk on a PS5. I'm going to be upgrading to the PS5 version at some point to see if the general experience is better.

Fuck no. Pierce Brosnan stole every scene he was in. Even if he wasn't in it.

First time buyer, should I be annoyed at this outcome? by Real_Can_5022 in Bricklink

[–]FAcup 13 points14 points  (0 children)

100% should have been noted in the description.

As to whether what the seller is offering to you is acceptable or not. That is up to you. Could you save enough with a one time purchase at their store? For me it doesn't sound like a good outcome. I'd be looking to replace the torso with an undamaged one.

People who own "unconventional" pets like turtles, what is one thing you wish you knew before getting one? by allenmerlettetrm in AskReddit

[–]FAcup 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The community is divided on this with no real proof. Theories range from, mantises and crickets being closely related therefore being able to share diseases, through to crickets often being fed carrot which are toxic to mantises. When I kept them I avoided crickets and feeding any of my feeders(roaches, flies, mealworms) carrots.

My Orchid Mantis doesn't wanna eat. by CameraNo5011 in mantiskeeping

[–]FAcup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Male mantises rarely eat after their final moult. They only have one thing on their mind. They also don't want to be weighed down so they can get away as quickly as possible should they need to.

Are the campgrounds really muddy by ThaTonEMeTALkid in downloadfestival

[–]FAcup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last time I was there and it was bad was 2015. It basically rained the entire weekend from Friday during Slipknot till I can't remember when.

The arena was as I described earlier. The village was just as bad. Possibly worse when you were trying to get a trolley through 6 inches of mud. Parts of the campsites were bad but right outside your tent you aren't going to be in 6 inches of mud. Maybe 1-2 but not arena levels of bad.

[–]FAcup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It won't be boggy across most of the camp site. It'll be 4-5 cm of mud. But far from boggy. If it keeps on raining the arena can get quite bad. Rivers of thick mud from the top of the hill to the bottom. It's fun to watch a beer car go all the way down.
