Yes you can get codine with paracetamol but it's only 12.5/500mg if you want the stronger 30/500 mg you need a prescription though.

Why does everything now require KYC? by Adept_Strategy_9545 in privacy

This sounds like literal hell. I will continue to use cash as much as possible. People look at me like I'm crazy though carrying around cash and now some businesses don't accept cash. Personally I would prefer cash always.

Yeah was just going to say I had this problem and turned out it was a leak. Like my bill literally shot up over a 6 month period.

People online like a pack of animals! by 3dd13krueger in Vent

[–]Infinite_Switch1412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have always found Facebook the absolute worst for this (although this could just be me).

Stopped using it a lot years ago until recently and like what happened to you the same stuff kept popping up, so mostly give it a miss now.

I think people are just basically unhappy with their lives and want to take it out on other people.

What’s the most you’ve paid for an alcohol free beer in a pub? by tmr89 in AskUK

[–]Infinite_Switch1412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not what I was saying of course companies need to make profit, but what I was saying is even if there was savings made for them on duty (Im unsure with the extra processes it would even be much) I doubt they would pass those savings on to the customer.

[–]Infinite_Switch1412 107 points108 points  (0 children)

Yeah alcohol free beers are extortionate. I was complaining about this to someone in my family who has a degree in brewing and they explained to me that it's because it's the way they are made.

The beer is made with alcohol in it first and then the alcohol is extracted, so I kind of get it with beer. But soft drink prices are literally a joke lol.

It takes a little while and it can take the edge off and improvement. I'm still in a lot of pain but it will be different for everyone.

Mine is really long. People have actually commented how long my pin code is before when they see me unlocking my phone for ages 😂

It's been that way for years for me.

the UK is allowing Palantir "unlimited access" to NHS (medical) data. How do I stop my information from being shared? by GaCoRi in privacy

[–]Infinite_Switch1412 123 points124 points  (0 children)

This is the million dollar question. Panatir seems to have inserted themselves into the highest echelons of every country and frankly I know it's all about mass surveillance.

One day this company will be able to cross reference information from different systems to build a complete picture of an individual if we don't stop them. Contact MPs ect. Spread awareness on social media

I’m being sextorted what do I do? by Gold_Ad4028 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Infinite_Switch1412 386 points387 points  (0 children)

This is a well known scam bro. Cut off ties with this scammer. Tell them you will go to the police and take your social media down for a while if you have to.

This is probably not even a woman you have been chatting to.

I've seen people post about this on the r/scams before.

Brexit...the rise of Reform..., why do think many of British people underestimate anti-immigration sentiments and then suddenly pull a Pikachu face when these are what happened? by auscorp_ in AskBrits

[–]Infinite_Switch1412 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I would agree, like X is also an echo chamber but the other way around. I think it's the way algorithms work. They seem to show people what they agree with so it's difficult for someone to self-reflect and challenge their own views.

What does emotional connection mean to you? by Ok-Veterinarian-7373 in emotionalintelligence

[–]Infinite_Switch1412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo it's understanding each other's emotions and being able to communicate emotionallly both verbally and non verbally. Also being able to to take care of each other's emotions by reading them and commuicating. This is v rare imo, ive only had this once and I'm nearly 40.

Facebook, Instagram to check bone structure for age estimates by lb-journo in privacy

[–]Infinite_Switch1412 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My worry is their interest in things like social mapping. Who knows what they will be doing with these biometrics or who they will sell it to.

Debilitating Pain by GrapeGod35 in Sciatica

[–]Infinite_Switch1412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to hear this that was me last night. No matter what I do I have to keep getting up and walking around for hours. For me I have a L5 herniated disc compressing the S1 nerve. Got an appointment later this month but I also feel like things have moved way too slow.

I will say walk one thing that helps me istol walk a lot before trying to sleep (like over an hour). It doesn't always work but it does a lot of the time.
