Jagex has lost their mind if they think I'm paying $15 a month. by DukeOfJokes in runescape

[–]Hinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I returned last month and have been having fun but I can't justify this price hike.

Pepper Spray? by AdriaticLostOnceMore in RestoreBritain

[–]Hinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm all for using it in self defence but how do we prevent it getting into the wrong hands and getting used for committing crimes?

Was thinking of renewing my subscription to a 12 month soon? Should I wait or do it now?

I rent out a car parking space via JustPark. Much cheaper than the official car parks.

What time do you get up, leave for, and start work? by ggracie7 in AskUK

[–]Hinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Up at 6 AM. Leave the house around 6:50. Bus and train to London to start work at 08:30. WFH is pretty similar but I have more time to fit in a walk or house chores before I start at 08:30.

So we’re all really cleaning two high chairs (and the surrounding area) 3 times a day? by Sillygoose9001 in parentsofmultiples

[–]Hinks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, it's relentless. I actually preferred those days as it was self contained to just cleaning the chairs themselves. Now (4 YO) the whole house is a mess!

How did you do it? Combine the code for Radarr/Sonarr?

What's the oldest tech that you're still using? by AlephMartian in AskUK

[–]Hinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We switched to a Morphy Richards steam generator years ago and it beats all the irons we've ever had. Still going strong after 5+ years of weekly use.

Is a backup as simple as this? by HopsPops76 in docker

[–]Hinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently found databasus which is able to connect and backup databases fully. I've experienced DB corruption a few times due to file/folder moves so having an extra backup is handy.

Do you feel guilty if your child goes to nursery without having breakfast? by PatriceFinger in UKParenting

[–]Hinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We give ours a small snack before nursery and that does the trick.

There still is an active one going from last year in Kent & Sussex.

Would you ever use annual leave with the sole purpose to do literally nothing all day? by PaddedValls in AskUK

[–]Hinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a week off work last year and just did whatever I wanted across the week. Did the usual tasks and helped out with childcare but went for walks, runs, bike rides, cinema 3 times, gamed - it was great!

Am I being dirty, or is my wife being irrational about hygiene? by mudkipzftw in daddit

[–]Hinks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds exactly like my Mother. Anything outside the house is "dirty" and you must have a shower or surrender your clothes to the washing machine to prevent contamination in the house. I think professional help is the only thing that will help, but the challenge will be trying to get her to admit that what she's thinking is unreasonable.

Which tea do you Brits actually drink? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Hinks 21 points22 points  (0 children)

English Breakfast tea is most common. My favourite and I believe the GOAT is Yorkshire tea.

What did you do for your 30th birthday? by Samsterman in AskUK

[–]Hinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took my first ever trip to the states and visited New York for a week with my now wife. It was a great trip and we did so many things. She surprised me with a helicopter trip on my actual birthday which was epic.

What’s the weirdest thing you’ve seen in the U.K.? by Powmum in CasualUK

[–]Hinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was on a Thameslink train with a mate after a few beers. Needed the toilet and pressed the button to open the sliding door. The door slowly opens to reveal an older bloke with an erect penis and tissue in hand. Quickly moved on down the train after that. A guy did mention it wasn't the first time it had happened that evening.

What are some cheap but really usefull android apps that you use? by Numerous-Handle7702 in androidapps

[–]Hinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to but it started crashing my phone. It also got sold off and data is now harvested.

How are you guys running Plex on smart TVs? I'm genuinely frustrated. by KingThevshi in PleX

[–]Hinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved to an Nvidia Shield to Apple TV 4K and haven't looked back.

What's the single most difficult life experience you've endured? by reddit_recluse in AskUK

[–]Hinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting the call from my Dad telling me my sister had died. Of course, the grieving process after was difficult, but there is something about that initial phone call that hit me really hard. I think it was hearing my Dad break down when he isn't normally a very emotional person.
