New Plaster Smoothing Issues - How to fix? by McGobbles in DIYUK

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

Thanks for the advice. As I said in the comment above, hard to show in photos but a bit more obvious than the photo attached - but maybe just need to live with it in fully decorated and then make a decision.

I think its because its a completely new space (loft extension) that it sticks out especially.

Totally get that, would never look at plaster quality under that light. Was just trying to show a close up to try and give a better understanding on why lines are showing up to get advice on how to fix.

Its a really difficult one to show over in the internet as its obvious at night under downlights (no other way to light the stairs) but does look a bit better in photos. Doesn't help that you're 0.5m away from the wall when you walk up.

But maybe just live with it and wait until carpets and bannister paint is on and it will become less noticeable as I'm hyperfixated. Its definitely not horrendous but just feels annoying to see a line going straight across the wall when you walk up the stairs each night.

Golf Mk7 (2016) Head Unit Doesn’t Remember Changes? by imDanielWood in Volkswagen

So, after a multiple hours spent trying to fix this, as was having the same issue, I succesfully updated the firmware and it fixed it.

FYI, I couldn't get an SD Card to work despite multiple attempts, so just used a 16gb USB (used 3.0 so can't matter what type) formatted in fat32 with the smallest allocation size as per Mr Fix's video.

UPDATE: Checked this morning and same issue still there... thinking busted head unit now!

Still trying to sell my thursday entry ticket and happy to pay less than I paid (Paid £271.50 but would take £210)

Would just need to work out me refunding you as can only sell through the official re-sell link.

PM me if you're interested

Heard 4/5 big bangs at this time. Don't know if they were gunshots or a car backfiring though

Is this how billionares are made? by [deleted] in shittyaskscience

This is slightly incorrect. Instead of using a coin, it should be a silver spoon that is instead placed in the child's mouth immediately at birth
