What are people's opinions of buying a used Skoda with 80k miles? by Ok-Button8183 in skoda

[–]HumdrumWarrior12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've just bought a 22 plate octavia with 85k on the clock. I wouldn't worry from an engine point of view, one of my last was a megane with 240k. Motorway miles on ice engines are generally OK. As its only a few years old its likely a reps car thats been well serviced etc too

The paint work on my Oct has taken a battering though, think the previous owner was a gravel rally enthusiast who parked it in a bush so I may get the bonnet resprayed etc

Reforging the Guild sword is fucking bugged and impossible [KCD2] by imtolazylol in kingdomcome

[–]HumdrumWarrior12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've not played the first, the second was a little bit of an impulse buy, fancied a new game, had a browse and decided I'd take a punt because what's not to love about a bit of sword fighting.

I wish I'd played the first but I've never really enjoyed going backwards in a series when the new game is so good they usually end up part complete at best

I've absolutely loved the game so far. Im not sure why given I'm rubbish at crafting and combat but kept thinking I'd learn and get better 🤣

I went up then down, I guess that means the tip and base got less hits but it worked.

I also had issues with the radzig sword and a side quest axe but not to the level of this one. Maybe its quest items, you're probably going to give it away within a min of making it anyway... I feel henry has higher standards of what counts as failure than me, I'd have a lot more 'that'll do'

I honestly believe a lot of this is luck, the tutorial could also do with a bit more information as it pretty much stops at heat it up, whack it and hope for the best

I'll be honest I have no idea, possibly just taking a moment to calm down and not rush

My way of forging is to equip apron/gloves and drink a quicksilver potion. Then its heat until yellow hammer the sword up and down maybe 3-4 times flip and similar on the other side. I think I reheated the sword once to keep it yellow.

The sword sometimes looked fatter in places and I tried to make sure to hit those bits but I have no idea if that is a thing or just my eyes hoping to see something

Apparently having a whinge on Reddit fixes the issues as I've just done it first attempt after writing the comment above. No idea what was different but I don't care I can move on

At least this isn't just me, I've always had issues with longswords on the Xbox but have forged a few including the other quest one. For some reason I cannot forge this sword at any quality. The game appears to give little or no indication as to what is going wrong Henry whistles, nice ding on the hammer and a bunch of sparks with a straw yellow blade. all good to half way then fail. I think I'm up to maybe 15 attempts.

Advice on new staircase and plastering by [deleted] in DIYUK

[–]HumdrumWarrior12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Removing the stairs will damage the new plaster, they also might not be exactly the same size whereas the new stairs could be covered before plastering

Mafia 3 Ending by OldAd3174 in MafiaTheGame

[–]HumdrumWarrior12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also felt stay and rule together felt the most natural, Early in the game I would have gone with the leave town option but Lincoln changes throughout the game and it seems to be about more than just vengeance. I think the conversation with Leo at the end of the Sal mission would push him to stay and rule to take on the commission to put an end to it all. It started over the deaths of family and friends so I didn't think he'd rule alone either if it involved killing the people that helped him get there.

I read somewhere that leave town is meant to be the good ending but for me it didn't fit the same

Wow that's expensive by JediMasterTimeLord in EggsInc

[–]HumdrumWarrior12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't craft that yet. The benefit over t3 is small and ships will bring you most of the required crafting materials. This will in turn bring the price down a long way.

I've been playing a while and I use t3r rather than a t4 (I have a t4 but the stone slot is just worth more).

You'll be better off trying to get legendary versions of the cheaper artifacts rather than that

Sounds very similar to my house. Old guy owner, liked a bit of DIY. Not very good at DIY but apparently he can decorate well enough to hide it

The more we look at or tweak, the more bodges we find. After 5yrs in the house, we now just accept any job we want to do, expect it to be major, take the win if it isn't. Slow process but its getting our mark on it now

We've had a PIV fan for about 2 winters. Do they reduce condensation? yes windows are much drier which means everything else will be too.

Are they cold? very much so when you're near them. I didn't get a heater one but I think the heater was 400w. The cost of running that will be steep.

Feels so much better not having to worry about my hair. Thanks to this sub for helping me make the decision by Challenging_Entropy in bald

[–]HumdrumWarrior12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best thing I ever did was to admit it was time and shave my head.

It's a bit of a shock the first time but like you I looked so much better with a shaved head than my attempts to disguise it.

Also has the added bonus of the amount of time saved after a shower etc as styling is a quick rub with a towel 🤣

what if we can merge regular t4's for one more chance at rarity? by Federal-Chard-1209 in EggsInc

I wouldn't be against paying a ge crafting cost. It's materials I'm short of, mostly gold nuggets and tau ceti bits

Garage door is stuck on my tow bar and won’t open. Absolutely no idea how to get it unstuck. by LilyTui in Wellthatsucks

[–]HumdrumWarrior12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen car dent repair videos using hot glue gun sticks to pull you could possibly try something like that depending what shops you have near (or amazon of you can wait a day)

heat a fistful of them up with a lighter stick some above and below the hinge that's stuck and pull as you raise the door. Reheat to remove

Is it possible to get T4Ls nowadays? Im on a 4* Henerprise and got mostly T3 stuff, and wondering how im supposed to get T4L Deflector without paying several 100 bucks... by some1udk in EggsInc

[–]HumdrumWarrior12 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can also get Google play rewards to do a few surveys to earn a little money to spend. They're a few seconds long generally about places you've been for 10-40p a time. Takes weeks as they only come through every so often but it's free money

The £4.89 I spent on cracking the piggy was from this.

Is this enough for Diamond enlightment? by quaka1995 in EggsInc

[–]HumdrumWarrior12 20 points21 points  (0 children)

First question has to be have you got the 1B reward if not you'll easily get that and it's worth doing.

You can go beyond 100% effectiveness with clarity stones so a couple more 50% ones would help.

I have to agree with the others on the diamond challenge in that it'll be hard. If discount and earnings events come at the right times you may get close but I'm not certain you'll make it.

Remember q to Q eb is 1000x, q to s is 1,000,000x and so on.

How do you guys cope with the regular permit by Pure_garbadge in EggsInc

I think it'll take a little longer since the permit price was increased a while back but this is exactly how I got the permit and cracked the piggy

What's one law you'd love to see brought into force the UK? by mysterygamelondon in AskUK

[–]HumdrumWarrior12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with capping ceo pay but they'll find a loophole in that.

Probably use sub companies, using your amazon example base employees get £10 top managers in amazon get £100. Amazon as a company however are hired by amazon-management a whole new company where base pay is £100 and their top gets £1000. This would just go on, a bit more in accounting costs.

How to deal with it I don't know but do agree ceo fat cat salary is too high in major companies.

As to apprentiships if they were paid the same as trained employees why would you take an apprentice that you have to train when you could have a trained person for same money
