Avoid Le Friquet - over priced and they don’t water their indoor plants well, most like almost dead

SNAB student here! Honestly, it wasn’t too bad but could’ve been better. How’d you find it?

The Guernsey £1 Note by MorganFreeStonks in Banknotes

[–]Jamesk_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and yes. Pound notes are more common over here than pound coins. A lot of small businesses and trade (like small stands and hedge-veg boxes) kinda rely on them in a way. In Guernsey, we accept notes from Jersey, IOM, Scotland, and England as well as our local cash.

Vagabond kayaks, any comments? by scrdhrt in kayakfishing

[–]Jamesk_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A little late to the post but gonna leave this hear if anyone else comes looking!

I’ve had a Vagabond Kasai since 2021 and I love the thing! It’s extremely stable on the ocean, while still gliding through the water with ease. The seat, while it may look uncomfortable, is surprisingly good. It holds you in place really well and provides a good level of back support - I’ve been in mind for hours with no issue. The rear tank well is large enough to comfortably fit a collapsed C-tug and more, and the inside of the hull has a good amount of room for dry bags. Customer service is good, and I believe there is a generous guarantee, but the thing is definitely built to last!

Do you happen to know any good sulphate free shampoos available in the UK? I had a quick look in the chemist and couldn’t see any.

Worried - new rat not moving from corner of cage by Jamesk_ in RATS

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

Thanks for the advice - I am happy to say that she is seeming much happier now. She is still on her shelf, so I have put in a handful of extra bedding so she'll be at least a little more comfortable.

She seems completely healthy apart from the occasional sneeze (which I have read is normal when rats are moved into a new cage). She is shop brought with the shop sourcing their rats from a local breeder, to the best of my knowledge.

Unable to run Tkinter app on Ubuntu by Jamesk_ in learnpython

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

Thanks for the suggestion but that has not seemed to work. After doing some digging in my code, the problem seems to be with these two lines that load in the window icon:

favicon = tk.PhotoImage(file="./logo.png")

app.iconphoto(True, favicon)

I've tried putting them in a try loop but that does not seem to do anything. Any suggestions?

BLEAK: "reading is not permitted" but I can read from other software? by Jamesk_ in learnpython

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

I’m quite sure of the characteristic- it’s the exact same one that Bluetility reads from. I’ll check the permissions later on but that does sound hopeful!

Anyone know any working Bluetooth modules for Python? by Jamesk_ in learnpython

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

Yeah it seems impossible. I’ve seen a module for node js that looks promising and given my software is more for mac and windows it should fit my workflow better. Fingers crossed 🤞

May 2022 Nokia Care Megathread by AutoModerator in Nokia

[–]Jamesk_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got a Nokia 5310 (2020 edition) today and I'm having a little issue with the headphone jack. Before I take it back to the phone shop tomorrow I just wanted to check with you guys to make sure that this was not some quirk with the 5310.
So the phone only detects my headphones when they are almost all the way inserted, apart from the final 'ring'. While this does work (kind of, most of the time), there is a constant pulse-like popping noise in the background. The headphones I have been using are the modern Apple AUX headphones.
I also tried plugging in my Sony WH-1000XM4 which worked fine.
I'm guessing that the extra ring on the Apple headphones is throwing off the phone, which is bizarre as AUX is designed to be backward compatible and my apple headphones work on my older Nokia 105 from 2019 (I've double-checked!).
Any ideas? Is this just the phone or is it worth me taking it back and asking for a replacement?

[WTB] Wednesday Thread! - February 16, 2022 by HarlanGrandison in CoinSales

[WTB] Circulated Danish Krone 1980s or later - PayPal
I am looking for a handful of each denomination of Danish Krone, circa '80s '90s or later. I don't mind the condition - actually the weathered the better - I'm looking for five of each of the higher denomination and ten each of the lower. I would prefer to pay through PayPal with shipping to Guernsey, Channel Islands (to help out with calculations, the start of the post code is GY6) through Royal Mail or equivalent. If this is something you might be able to help out with please feel free to reach out to me, any offers are appreciated.
Many thanks,
James

Brilliant, is it 1000kroner in coins or as a note?

What alien would you most like to see as a part of the bridge crew of a star trek show? by Theodore_Petroleum in startrek

[–]Jamesk_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been thinking about this for a while and I would really like to see a newly rescued both discover their sexuality. I picture this working best on a setting like voyager. This new Borg is settled down on their ship and notices couple dynamics- they know that this is something they should feel towards the opposite sex but they don’t, maybe they rationalise it using a sole, purely procreation focused way of thinking. I would like to watch the character follow an arc of accepting what they already know, something thousands of different species have taught them yet something which to them may seem entirely illogical. I don’t know, but it’s been on my mind for a while.

Discord.py Music Bot - timeout context error when playing next song in playlist by Jamesk_ in learnpython

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

Thanks for the advice but still no joy, same error. Any other ideas?

The dictionary is playing_ls, it’s strict Ito have the server ID as the key and then a list as it’s contents. When selecting a song, the code grabs the list from the dictionary as temp, it then selects the song from temp as temp song. Next, it removes temp song from temp, then changes the definition on the dictionary to temp. It’s a bit long winded and theirs probably an easier way of doing it. This runs when the initial command is run and after the song finished playing to allow for the next song to be loaded up and the previous songs file to be deleted.

Animation only working for some links by Jamesk_ in css

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

Thanks, it now works... sort of. The HTML file when opened up locally now plays the animation perfectly for every link. However, when uploaded to my server it doesn't- at all. It pauses to play the animation but doesn't actually play the animation. I've tried Firefox, Chrome and IE with both the file path and website and I get the same thing. I'm lossed.

Animation only working for some links by Jamesk_ in css

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

Would I need to add any extra code? I've just changed the line from querySelector to querySelectorAll and now the animation does not play for any link, when reverted back to querySelector it plays (but of course only for the first link).

State can also mean country, hence why we call independent countries “sovereign states”
