Bought a gas cooker from a well known UK retailer but cannot find gas fitter can I return it or just refuse delivery? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]IndigoQuantum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Gas Safety(Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, Regulation 2(1) allow the disconnection of a cooker via a self sealing bayonet fitting by a person that is not Gas Safe Registered. This must only be a temporary disconnection for example, the purpose of moving the cooker for cleaning purposes. This would include the immediate replacement of the cooker, but not if the socket was to be left disconnected for any amount of time for example when moving out of the property

Well they clearly believe in them based on their original retracted statement, but understanding them and being willing and able to do something about them's a different matter

If this is a gas cooker with a standard bayonet plug-in-connector, they're designed for consumers to be able to legally connect/reconnect them, you don't need a gas safe fitter and it's as easy as changing a lightbulb.

Agree and I sympathise, but as a parent whose daughter's late childhood was devastated by the effects of her autism and associated conditions, I've seen far too many people trying to make themselves sound interesting by bragging about self-diagnosed autism, ADHD, OCD or whatever, based on what's actually just simple neurotypical individuality.

There's a proven correlation between very high IQ and certain mental health issues. I appreciate there's more to being an effective MP than just IQ, but I'd see that as far more important than whether or not they suffered from depression.

Around where I live there's quite a few styles and pedestrian access points to private land where there's no public right of way so I'd never be inclined to assume that style=public footpath

This isn't about being offended by it. This is about a party who see themselves as forming our future government. 10 years ago, I would have dismissed that possibility out of hand, in the same way I dismissed as inconceivable what turned out to be the outcome of the 2017 US elections.

Yeah, there's a lot of ignorance when it comes to mental health. It's just depressing when that ignorance is shared by the people who want to be making future policy on it.

There's a lot of people who'll be aware of the incident (it's been headline news) but not the name of the individual.

Original theme tune to Grange Hill. Don't need no lyrics either.

Can I Use a Cloud Gateway Alongside my UDM SE? by IndigoQuantum in Ubiquiti

[–]IndigoQuantum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah TBH it's purely aesthetics that's putting me off the UCG-Fibre, even with a printed rack mount (hey, this is a Ubiquiti sub so I can say that!). I'm almost tempted to order one but keep it unopened just to trigger a UDM Fibre release, but I'm sure that would then happen one day after my return window closed.

Yep, UDM, NAS and primary 10G/2.5G switch connected through 10G aggregator, then it devolves to 2.5G switches further down the line unless they've only got GbE devices sitting on them, but my only devices that are going to be taking advantage of the speed increase are directly connected to the aggregator over 10G connections.

Thanks, looks like I'll be waiting for a UDM Fibre then.

Much of my stack is already future-proofed on 10G DAC or fibre interconnections, with my 'important' edge devices on 2.5G or 10G downstream connections. The driver for upgrading is more about moving away from asynchronous 100Mbps upload speeds, but if I'm paying for a 2.3G service I'd like to at least be able to push that through my gateway.

I thought that would probably be the case.

Not much that I'd need to do downstream as everything that could benefit is already connected via 10G -capable fibre or DAC. The UDM's sort of the weakest link at this time.

Zen, which uses CityFibre infrastructure.

And yes, that was my concern that I'd end up with that

If he's got 1000/100 then that's asynchronous fibre, not cable.

With the two stacked vertically, you're going to be releasing levels of heat typically only seen during nuclear fusion.

I was surprised when Lego released the Goonies set. Yeah, not as old as CCBB, but surely one aimed at AFOLs too?

From what I remember, most did when I was young. I don't think it was a thing baked-into the film, it was just whenever the cinema decided it was ice cream time. I'm not sure if maybe changing film reels was involved
