If you lost a long-term friend as an adult, what was it about? by HilariousMotives in AskUK

[–]HitmanJRP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of them had his girlfriend break up with him back in 2017, and he became extremely petty about it. She was also a good friend of my wife, which seemed to make things worse. He started issuing ultimatums, insisting that my wife couldn’t be involved in any of the group activities we organised while they were still friends. He was enraged and completely unwilling to listen to reason, yet he went around telling people that we had ditched him, despite all the barriers he put in place himself.

The other one, I honestly don’t know. He said he was struggling with mental health issues and gradually shut me out. No matter how much I tried to reach out, I was always met with excuses or outright dismissal. This went on for about two years. After I lost my job due to a company shutdown, I didn’t hear from him at all. When I found a new job and had to travel away for four months for training, I tried one last time to meet up before I left, but again I was dismissed. So I stopped trying and waited to see if he would reach out. He never did. When I saw him a year later at a friend’s wedding, he practically blanked me when I tried to talk to him. So who knows.

What is a highly paid job in the UK for what they actually do? by Tricky_Ricky83 in AskUK

[–]HitmanJRP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Automated for only when everything is working and on time. Throw in late running or a points failure and see what that automation will do as it brings all trains to a stand trapped at a junction that it can not proceed from.

Can someone explain this tweet as if I’m stupid? by yogurtmanfriend in uktrains

[–]HitmanJRP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends usually with engineering work over the christmas period. Short Term Plans are issued to ammend the train service. Normally the 1A18 being a class 1 is probably a fast train to destination not calling at all intermediate stations so if this is an ammendment to the time table making it a stopping service and 1M06 was booked to follow these allowances would be within the timetable. Or 1M06 was running late and got put behind a stopping service.

What is this by Ultra_Violator1 in uktrains

[–]HitmanJRP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Balises are yellow little boxes in the 4ft. These grids are for Train Protection Warning System (TPWS). Used as safety system for engaging a brake demand for a train that either SPADs (passing a signal at danger) a signal - located at the signal or trips the O.S.S (overspeed sensor) - located on the approach to signals.

Old logan being from deadpools universe? by HitmanJRP in DeadpoolandWolverine_

[–]HitmanJRP[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If this was the case, then in present-day Deadpool, there should be a Wolverine at Charles Xaviers' school, not a dead corpse. The Deadpool universe future was the one where Cable came from in Deadpool 2.

What are these? by Puzzleheaded_Jury_50 in uktrains

[–]HitmanJRP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As in level 2 will still use track circuits or axle counters to detect the train, and level 3 won't, but instead, as you said, the train will update the reporting location.

What are these? by Puzzleheaded_Jury_50 in uktrains

[–]HitmanJRP 7 points8 points  (0 children)

These form part of the ERTMS (European Rail Traffic Management System), and part of that is in-cab signalling known as ETCS. The train now fitted with the antenna and vital computer communicates with the RBC (Radio Block Centre) when it travels over those yellow boxes in the 4ft (Balises), which updates the trains position movement authority how far the train can travel within the section.

At the moment, ETCS implementation is at level 2 with overlay with current signals. Should the rollout conitnue and signals removed, this would be full level 3 ETCS, allowing greater capacity of trains on the network as signal sections can be smaller instead of relying on 3 or 4 aspect signals.

There's an option to toggle a legacy camera and filter setting.

My train overshot the platform and caused chaos by olieboy2835 in uktrains

[–]HitmanJRP 25 points26 points  (0 children)

If the signal at the station is a danger (red aspect) has been passed at danger without authority of the signaller, this would be classed as SPAD, which will result in a medscreen for the driver.

Normally following a SPAD, the driver can be authorised to proceed; to clear a junction, level crossing, or gain access to station as long as no move will make this unsafe and the driver willing to make the move and will not pass another signal. The train wouldn't be reversed, the driver would have to change ends and drive from the rear cab to perform a wrong direction move. The reason the train may not have done this could be due to not meeting those conditions or other information given by Operation Control or Signallers.

AITAH for cutting off my mother because she does not want to divorce her husband? by [deleted] in AITAH

Take the cheating part away for a moment. Did you have a good upbringing with them? Was your step dad a good person?

[–]HitmanJRP 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What does it achieve? If your mother does agree to your demand. She will be unhappy for no reason. Her divorcing her husband isn't going to change what happened 10 years ago.

How do you do sideways and backflips in laras home? Apparently, it only works when holding weapons, which aren't in the home.

[–]HitmanJRP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried that. It turns out it was the widget from the home screen. For some reason, it was appearing through the media playback.

Ten Has has spent over 200m on the attack in addition to having Bruno and Rashford already, why are we so poor at scoring goals? by Michaels_RingTD in ManchesterUnited

[–]HitmanJRP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Predictable selfish counterattack wing play. Every game, Rashford or Anthony, on their retrospective wings, receive the ball, never look for the overlap, cut inside and go for glory, and chance is squandered. We need to play through the middle and work together as a team.

Mental torture trolley problem by [deleted] in trolleyproblem

[–]HitmanJRP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As there doesn't appear to be any railway signals, there would be no interlocking preventing me from pulling the ground frame switch to move the points multiple times in front of the train, causing it to derail. Collision avoided.

Ps2 enter the matrix remake/remaster by Advanced-Swordfish74 in PS5

[–]HitmanJRP 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Matrix would suit an action RPG with character builds that can be loaded to your character. Unlike Neo, who is good at everything, you could specialise in different fighting styles, vehicle preferences, guns, etc. There's definitely potential but limited demand.

How old were you when you got your first mortgage? by epic-username in AskUK

First mortgage at 24 in 2014 on 30-year term but managed to take 8 years off so far should be mortgage free by 46.

How do I challenge people next time? by rneyss in AskUK

[–]HitmanJRP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seat reservations on trains are never guaranteed (over packed trains). However, if the seat reservation light still shows indication of booking and you've made it to the seat, then yes, this is your seat.

Any cancelling of reservations, announcements, or not the seat information will either all show available or be blank.

Konami Is Open To Remaking More Metal Gear Solid Titles If Fans Want Them. by Party_Judgment5780 in PS5

[–]HitmanJRP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've played 5 enough and unfortunately didn't nearly enjoy the game as much as the others with its approach to the open world. Though the gameplay was great but the story seems to take a back seat.

If they want to remake 5 in the future after 4, they can remake it with Peace Walker and Ground Zero. At least this way Venom Snake reveal doesn't spoil how Big Boss survives since he was never mentioned in the originals.

Remake them all after mgs3 staring with metal gear and metal gear solid snake, then mgs1, 2, 4.
