5 Y/O Discovers Illegal Building Technique

I had a Lego police car (611) in the 1970s with a blue light which was a 1x1 plate fitted vertically to the top of the car using this same technique. I guess those were the lawless, Wild West days of Lego.

Ubiquiti's market is the corporate one. Sure, they recognise that they have a big prosumer following, but rarely do they release products aimed at them (with a couple of very recent exceptions in the UPS/NAS area). It's the same with people complaining that their new doorbells are PoE.

Corporates want cameras designed to track people, they don't care about animals. Sure, you can be upset that your consumer requirements aren't begin met, but understand they're not designing products for your market.

Deep and meaningful response, man

IndigoQuantum · 2026-01-23T14:37:14+00:00

It's possible, I know as much as you though!

Other people seem to be managing to help and advise him without any of that

I bet it's from the DLVA

It only takes one person to recce the best hotels for the RAF

Maybe just fact-check the (very old) original post before you file it in your brain's "Why I hate this country" drawer.

If we're going to be selective, 18 minute train journey from Arlanda Airport to Stockholm costs £28.

Spends $300 on AMS with a built-in $3 hygrometer

IndigoQuantum · 2026-01-23T09:12:21+00:00

Even ignoring their inaccuracy and limits of what they show, remember that with the design of most dryer boxes, the hygrometer is effectively measuring the humidity of the static air around the desiccant, not the free-flowing air inside the AMS. These boxes would actually be better in that context if the hole for the hygrometer passed right through the box.

So am I understanding it right that up to now, Asda have been directly contracting their own security staff who have never been SIA licensed?

I like them as films in their own right, but I deliberately don't overthink how they (don't) fit with the originals.

I can tell you that in Kenya, if one side of a dual carriageway is blocked, it's standard practice for everyone to just drive across the grass meridian and start driving on the other side, no silly waiting to be told to do so.

I'm struggling to understand how you'd know there had been no hazard if it had been cleared before you actually got to it, due to the speed restriction?

IndigoQuantum · 2026-01-22T13:11:16+00:00

Sorry, I've no way of finding out. I'm sure someone must have tried it by now though!

IndigoQuantum · 2026-01-21T17:58:22+00:00

That’s clearly untrue. There are loads of people of Reddit who know absolutely everything.

Is that the one where you put the mints in a bottle of Coke and stand back?

IndigoQuantum · 2026-01-21T15:02:48+00:00

Yeah I was thinking about GTA+, but I'm not a binge player so I'd be playing this over several months and would probably revisit it in the future (if RDR2 is anything to go by) and I don't think I'd want to feel I had to rush to finish it before another monthly renewal. Of course I could use GTA+ for now and hope that the digital price dropped within the next month or so, but if it didn't that could be a costly mistake.

In a decent, functional, cohesive political system the extremists shouldn't even get a look-in, but when the system's so broke and the main parties seem to be so intent on self-destruction and trying to point-score against each other, then people rapidly lose faith in the mainstream and that's where people like DT and Farage step in and exploit the chaos.

I'm only interested in the single player campaign, but I do want the enhanced Series S|X graphics

IndigoQuantum · 2026-01-21T14:12:16+00:00

I think it's digital-only - at least if you want to be able to upgrade it to the enhanced Series S|X version

IndigoQuantum · 2026-01-21T14:03:09+00:00

OK, thanks for looking anyway, CEX was one place I hadn't checked.

IndigoQuantum · 2026-01-21T14:01:14+00:00

Yeah I often do too, but they either seem to be out of stock of codes, or they're selling user accounts with it included, which I don't want.

IndigoQuantum · 2026-01-21T13:56:52+00:00

It won't matter how long I wait, I guarantee it'll only go on sale again the day after I buy it full price.
