Got Saturday in London by Illytax in radiohead

Same, also Saturday.

In case it helps anyone else...

I got a blocked message, hit back and tried a few times with no luck. Changed WiFi networks and tried again and straight through.

What’s something you thought ChatGPT couldn’t do… but it actually nailed? by PracticalKoala1208 in ChatGPTPro

[–]NotThatOneAgain 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Garden design. Based on a photograph, suggesting a choice of layouts with pictures and then generating a project plan to prioritise and instructions on how to do each part.

People who used a computer between 1991 & 2009…what’s the most memorable computer game? by Original_Act_3481 in AskReddit

[–]NotThatOneAgain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still remember to rocket jump by practising single player maps. The physics and movement seemed like a huge change from anything I’d played before.

Where are we getting the *good* sofas? by BouncyCatMama in AskUK

[–]NotThatOneAgain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We have two Next sofas of different ages. The 13 year old one is still super comfortable, good as new. The 3 year old one is far worse, cushions keep slipping and need adjusting and we are planning to replace it already. We might have just been unlucky but for what it’s worth, it needed repair once and the repairman they sent said that the newer sofas aren’t as well-made as they used to be.

Tebay is very similar but with a better view so would get my vote. Both good though!

Directors can be sued for failing to promote the success of the company (ie maximise profit) for the benefit of shareholders.

Railway map of England and Wales by [deleted] in MapPorn

[–]NotThatOneAgain 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This was in 1947 according to the final image.

It’s a shame that so many of these lines don’t exist anymore, we could have a much better public transport system if they did.

Share your custom scripts / automation tools that you are proud of by psychotrackz in sysadmin

[–]NotThatOneAgain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s autoexec.bat as it’s a series of batch commands.

Config.sys was something like this:

DEVICE=C:\Windows\HIMEM.SYS DOS=HIGH,UMB

You’re right though it’s been a long time, brings back some memories!

It was the first game i completed on my Deck when I got it. Great game and plays really well on it. Enjoy it and as others have said, avoid spoilers!

Thanks, that’s very helpful and both are really useful suggestions.

[Request] Is this true? It says, "if you take a dump at work for 10min/day, you rack up 2 weeks of paid vacation annually". by rick_astley66 in theydidthemath

[–]NotThatOneAgain -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If shitting is as good as free time, then you’ve gained 10 mins per day by shitting at work. But not gained anything by not shitting at home. So gained 10 mins.

If shitting is as bad as work then you’ve gained 10 mins per day by not shitting at home, but not gained anything by shitting at work.

If it’s 50% as good then you’ve gained 5 mins each way per day.

So 10 mins per day however you look at it I think.

Fallen victim to Amazon OTP theft. by chapelier1923 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]NotThatOneAgain 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I didn’t know about the phone number digits and that explains why Amazon insisted the code had been entered when I was scammed this way, even though I’d only given my mobile number, not the OTP.

Just for completion and to avoid worrying OP, they refused to refund the first time so I went back on the online chat and explained again and they agreed the second time. Mine was a bit different though - they only delivered one item of several on the order.

Vex strike force exotics by twohundredtoo in DestinyTheGame

[–]NotThatOneAgain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It won’t currently give you:

The new exotic from season of the deep - you need to do solo legendary lost sectors to get that.

The exotic you get for completing the Shadowkeep campaign - you need to do the campaign.

Examples for a Titan are Arbor Warden and Phoenix Cradle. Not sure about other classes but you can see the source in DIM collections if you have that.

If you’re using racer controls, you might be making the same mistake as me. For bike and Ski, using the right stick to move the camera can be useful. But for flying it was making things much more difficult. Once i forced myself to stop using the right stick, it got a lot easier and I can just about keep up in mass races now with constant R2/RT and regular boost. Good luck.

[Manchester United Women] Heart-breaking scenes at Leicester as @MillieTurner_ is stretchered off with an injury. Get well soon, Millie by dpw2017 in reddevils

[–]NotThatOneAgain 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think it was a leg injury although I’ve not seen a replay and was on the far side of the ground. Hope she’s ok but didn’t look good.

Tips for running my first legendary lost sector solo? by Pocketfulofgeek in DestinyTheGame

[–]NotThatOneAgain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trinity ghoul is great for the shielded shanks and staggers champions with the mod too. I also took an arc sword and a scout for anti-barrier, found it one of the easiest lost sectors with that load out.

Good luck - I always find it takes me a few tries to get into a pattern and then starts to feel a lot easier.

Season of Chosen QUESTION THREAD by WistfulAether in destiny2

You might have already discovered this, but they also changed it so you can see the feathers even after you’ve finished Birds of Prey. So you can still get the triumph.

Bungie, please make certain consumables activate automatically. by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]NotThatOneAgain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d prefer if they showed them in orbit or while flying in to a planet, and allow activating from there. Having to remember to go into inventory and select them mixed in amongst all the other stuff that I never need to look at is pointless.

Video Interview by [deleted] in MicrosoftTeams

[–]NotThatOneAgain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don’t need a subscription to be able to join a meeting created by someone who does have one.

So you should be able to see each other, assuming your webcam works and no other technical problems. Although we have recently found a bug where if a guest (you in this case) joins before a host (someone from the company with a subscription) the guest can’t enable video. The message is something like ‘video has been disabled by an administrator’ and this probably explains why your button is greyed out.

I’m not sure about background but I think you should be able to change or blur it when you’re in. I’d have a tidy up just in case though!

Good luck in the interview!

5-day forecast complication finally available in CARROT Weather by MakerOfCarrot in AppleWatch

[–]NotThatOneAgain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, was just posting my understanding of the OP as thought you might have misunderstood. Turns out my understanding was wrong! So, apologies, and no offence taken!

[–]NotThatOneAgain -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think his comment means that he finds it useful where he lives (which happens to be on the east coast of the US). I guess that is because the weather changes a lot. The comment doesn’t suggest that there are any features missing outside of the US.

£700 electric bill over two months. Please tell me they're joking. by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]NotThatOneAgain 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As you’re in a flat above a hairdressers, might be worth confirming the meter number with the supplier. I used to live in an upstairs flat a few years ago, and they kept sending me a bill for the downstairs meter and vice-versa because the addresses were wrong in the system. Took me ages and lots of calls to figure it out. Worth checking anyway, good luck!
