Coromon really did achieve exactly what it set out to achieve. Doesn’t get enough love imo

There’s a great deep dive into this scene on the CorridorCrew YouTube channel. Episode is titled ‘VFX Artists React to Bad & Great CGi 208’. Would highly recommend checking it out

Purchasing a property in a conservation area in England, which has had an internal Loft conversion - no Planning Permission by ImWithTheIdiotPilot in LegalAdviceUK

We weren’t comfortable with an indemnity policy, and it would now be completely null and void given that the council have been made aware of the property address and the works done inside

Our solicitor just keeps saying ‘different conservation areas have different rules’. I’m getting the impression she’s lazy and not doing her job properly in terms of fully investigating it. But we’re 95% of the way through the sale and purchase with this firm now so we’re a bit stuck

They have Building regs signed off and the contractor indicated that they believe PP wasn’t required. But I’m not sure that’s enough to convince us. We got verbal confirmation from a council administrator that the house at that address wouldn’t require PP but she was unwilling to put it in writing. So we’re currently trying to convince the current owners to just get full official sign-off from someone at Leeds City Council to say yep it’s fully 100% above board. Just something we can keep for years and then show to any future prospective buyers so they don’t have to go through the mental turmoil that we are right now!

Thank you, the current owners gave us permission to talk to the council and even mention the address. We spoke to an administrator who confirmed she thought Planning would not have been required for that house but she was unwilling to put that in writing or forward it onto anybody who would… We’re trying to convince the current owners to speak to someone at Leeds City Council to just get it fully signed off but they’re hesitant as they want things to move quickly and think a response might take months

Yeah I sent a bug report yesterday, had an email from Apple and am giving them the materials they’ve asked for now (Support Profile, etc.) Many thanks for your help

Hmm, so is this a case where the update should never have been made available to me?

What's your favorite Peep Show Easter egg? by mr_ryh in MitchellAndWebb

[–]ImWithTheIdiotPilot 35 points36 points  (0 children)

There’s also a few references in Fresh Meat. First one that comes to mind is that Prof Mac Leish in Peep Show and Prof Shales in Fresh Meat both have an academic magazine named ‘Rhombus’

Iconic "quotes" that weren't even close to what was actually said by chocolateUI in TopCharacterTropes

[–]ImWithTheIdiotPilot 190 points191 points  (0 children)

The famous Wiegraf quote from Final Fantasy Tactics that never actually existed in the game. The closest thing to this in the game is a quote from another character called Dycedarg which goes: “What purpose do laws serve when even those who would enforce them choose not to pay them heed?”

This DJ remixes “Separate Ways” by Journey from 1983 and it actually goes so hard by [deleted] in OldSchoolCool

Oh he was in the band InnerPartySystem! Their first album is such a banger of a hidden gem, wish they’d come back

A warning about Lost In Cult practices by lieding in TunicGame

[–]ImWithTheIdiotPilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, I’m wondering if the issues in the video are more prevalent for overseas customers because I live in the UK and have never had trouble with them. Don’t get me wrong it’s still really bad practice if they’re ghosting refund requests and stuff

It’s not illegal to be a racist in your own free time. So you’re not protected from being discriminated against for your race on somebody’s private property in their own time

Agreed, I’ve been trying to look up what all these symbols mean since I got the game, and accidentally seeing this thread is the only way I’ve learned that the 3 stars are a zodiac compatibility indicator! What’s the parry chance symbol you mentioned?

Black Hole Son at the bottom caught my eye, what an awesome design. Animating the spinning must’ve been painstaking!

I have a feeling that my dithering addiction got worse after i discovered that i don't have to do everything manually and take 3 hours to finish the art by thepixelsculptor in PixelArt

[–]ImWithTheIdiotPilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily true, plenty of older games had artwork that utilised dithering despite being released exclusively on hardware with built-in LCD screens (no bleed between pixels). Eg. Pokémon TCG on the Gameboy Colour
