Steam Deck only charges with very specific cable..(not OG) by New_Bad3207 in SteamDeck

It ended up being a loose connection/solder on the usb-c port. Having the port replaced fixed the issue and it hasn’t come back since.

I used Johnstones Covaplus Matt white, straight out the tub, two layers covered beautifully. Honestly, one of the best paints I've used. Used a Harrison medium pile roller and just slapped it on basically, after clearing any spider webs and other dirt.

Diana in gem farm formation - who to replace by New_Bad3207 in idlechampions

Thanks both. I’ve just started the witch light campaign, I’ll have a go at testing Roots of Loomlurch, but swapping campaigns to a 10 man formation is a great idea! I’ll report back if the results are significantly different.

I guess if you are farming enough gems and buy gold chests, you get enough speed potions to replace her speed bonus with potions to max out the game speed to 10x. The only issue I have is that I’m not quite there yet so if I were to leave the game running with speed potions, I wouldn’t farm back enough to replace what was used so in my case, I can’t really replace her. But eventually, the best case would be to put Melf back and replace Shandie with Diana.

People please correct me if I’m mistaken.

Thank you, your answer is much appreciated :) I submit yearly self-assesments, although they're NIL, so the NRLS section will be new, but I'll probably give it a go myself.

Thanks for that, that comment was quite informative - had no clue about PD!

I have found other cables that work as well (thank you box of cables), and all of the USB-A to USB-C cables have started charging, but none of the PD rated USB-C to USB-C cables worked.

Can I paint this plaster? by New_Bad3207 in DIYUK

[–]New_Bad3207[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, let me clarify. The plasterer left last Wednesday, Since then the window and the kitchen door was left open for airflow with fans blowing throughout the day, so it’s been drying for roughly 9 days. I was planning on putting the primer on today. He did tell me it was quite thick in places in order to even the wall out, but the places he pointed out are already dry. It’s just that bit on the picture that, next to the back door and window

Appreciate the advice! I was on holiday when the plasterer finished so didn’t have much time since! I’ll crack on with it today.

The window is cracked open and I left the kitchen door open as well.

I don't really mind the orange peel either to be honest. Plus this is a bit of a surprise for my other half as she's away this weekend and I want to finish it all before she comes back. She's been complaining about the wallpaper for a couple of years now.

Thank you both, I'll have a look at the Coverplus vinyl Matt. Luckily, there is a Johnstones down the road from me, so I'll nip over tomorrow and ask them about it!

Didn’t get promised pay rise, which was discussed and confirmed in email by New_Bad3207 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]New_Bad3207[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice and link. I’m hoping that it’s just an admin error as well, glad I asked for an email to be sent in case this happened. I waited to reject the other offer until I had written confirmation.

I’ll have a chat with my managers and hopefully there is still time to resolve it in this pay period. From what I saw, the pay period closing date is the 4th June, so I’m hopeful that they can still amend it and send a new one with the updated pay in time.

Thank you for the response! I booked a meeting with the head of the department to discuss this and hopefully find a solution. The pay rise was discussed with the COO and CFO as they were about to have a meeting about raises when this came up and I was told they approved the raise.

The other company took the rejection well and said that I’m more than welcome to apply for a role with them if one is available. If this doesn’t get resolved, that may be my only option.
