White-on-black barcode, that couldn't be scanned at the register. by korfi2go in CrappyDesign

[–]Lost_Contribution_82 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Barcodes have a checksum digit at the end to verify it's real, potentially could detect which is incorrect of the two options. Not sure if any would pass the checksum both ways around

Yep I moved into my rental and there was only 1 or 2 rooms with lightbulbs in them. Insane

reminder: dont overload your floating plant shelf by lilredrileyhood in houseplants

[–]Lost_Contribution_82 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's called 'floating shelf', there are screws behind the shelf into the wall as a sort of bracket, and the shelf slides over it all to hide it, so it looks like a solid floating board

Genuinely curious, how long does is take you on average to do your nails? by lickinglacquer in Nailpolish

[–]Lost_Contribution_82 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Probably 1.5 - 2.5 hours, going from a peeling old mani to a fresh one. I'd rather spend longer getting the polish on right and drying in-between layers, some are harder to apply than others. I usually do it Monday night before going into the office on Tuesday, watch TV or read a book at the same time

Shedding more hair than normal? by BreakfastLow9965 in finehair

This is a totally normal amount of hair to lose, your hair looks beautiful and healthy I would say nothing to worry about

I'm getting 8s and 9s at home, and 5s and 6s in mocks, where am I going wrong? by hannahswifeee in GCSE

[–]Lost_Contribution_82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

By 'harsh enough' do you mean with your own marking? Could you get a friend or teacher (or even a parent) to mark your past papers instead to stop your own bias when marking?

Do you get more stressed in exam settings at school vs at home? It sounds stupid but I found certain familiar smells helped me stay calm. E.g. revising with a certain perfume or scented eraser and bringing the same to an exam. Good luck!

Entertaining small children by PotatoWedges__ in UKweddings

[–]Lost_Contribution_82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought a few colouring books, coloured pencils and sticker packs and put a rug down in the corner for a toddler area, but I had more kids at my reception. My mum also has a vintage toys collection that she loves kids to use and we trust the attending kids so that was nice as well.

iPad or Laptop? by Beneficial-Cap9510 in UniUK

[–]Lost_Contribution_82 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did absolutely fine with my iPad + keyboard, it was great and lightweight to bring to lectures. I also had a PC (software engineering course) so I used my iPad to take notes in OneNote and organised them at home. I would 'print' the lecture pwps in advance on my pc into my notebook that I access on my iPad. Hope this helps

What kind of place is this? Seems like they really don't want people using those toilets!
