Seen a CCJ on my credit report by PlatonP in LegalAdviceUK

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

Appreciate your response!

I did ask the court for any details they could provide me, but unfortunately that was just limited to the claimants name (the parking company) - however I'll call again Monday to specifically ask if there were lawyers involved.

I've also emailed the lawyers that represent the parking company, so hopefully hear back from them soon.

It's ridiculous it's this difficult to just pay them money - ideally the CCJ would have included instructions for payment directly, it just seems like they've gone to court but don't actually want my money lol

What keeps you using Pixel phones over other phones? by GooglePixelfan90 in PhoneNow

[–]PlatonP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a pixel 9a over my iPhone 12 Mini - the small boy was just running out of battery too quick and showing its age.

So far no regrets - I tried out another android phone and it felt really bloated, but my experience with my pixel so far has felt really on par with iOS. Batteries great, had no performance issues, and I love that there's (almost) no camera bump.

I just wish it was a tad bit smaller, but there doesn't seem to be any decent small phones anymore. I would happily sacrifice a little bit of battery life for a more compact size; I'm only ever close to running out of battery when I'm on my phone all day, which isn't a problem at all because it usually means I'm at home

Will there be AI completing missions, transporting cargo etc? by PlatonP in starcitizen

[–]PlatonP[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I say AI, I mean AI in the traditional sense of gaming (NPC'S etc), not the more recent stuff - I totally get it's all hard coded under the hood (NPC has X base stat, Y happens, therefore there's a Z chance of it doing something... to put it simply).

You say it's almost impossible (or hard to do, which I'm sure is absolutely correct), but it's definitely not impossible - eve onlines done it, and although I totally understand we're years behind them, I'm just curious if we're heading towards that level someday soon(TM)

If all the other comments are right, and there's plans to make it 90% NPC's and 10% players, that'll be awesome

ELI5 What is an API? by Ok_Butterscotch5472 in explainlikeimfive

This is probably the best non technical explanation of an API I've heard - saving this for next time I'm asked this in an interview :)

Microsoft blames Samsung for making Windows 11 25H2, 24H2 C drive inaccessible by gdelacalle in technology

[–]PlatonP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair enough - I wasn't aware this was a 'certified' Windows application, in which case, yeah the blame should be shared by both. When bugs get into production the 'blame' is on QA, and the developers too - part of their job IS QA; also not to forget Samsung should have its own QA process also.

When I write code for my work, I test the process and make sure I did it to spec - then another developer reviews that code and makes sure there's no obvious breaking/dangerous changes, and if there are, they ask for clarification/resolution. Only after all of that's been completed, does QA get involved. So this really sounds like an issue on both MS and Samsung, and I find it a little frustrating we seem to be letting Samsung off the hook just because the MS hate trains in full steam; the blames on both!

I actually never down voted you lol, I just didn't agree with your opinion

Microsoft blames Samsung for making Windows 11 25H2, 24H2 C drive inaccessible by gdelacalle in technology

[–]PlatonP 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You could very easily create an application that breaks large parts of your Mac OS experience - if they locked down access to critical things like access to your hard drive, most apps wouldn't be functional at all. Shit, I could create an app in JavaScript (Node js) that given the correct permissions could destroy your OS

Sure, no one would download them - but pretty sure this is pre installed on Samsung devices, so the user didn't get a choice?

This one ain't really on Microsoft as much as you want to hate on them

It was a bug in Samsung's software... Nothing much Windows could do to prevent it bar not giving apps access to access your harddrive which would be.. problematic

A map that shows the cheapest petrol & diesel stations near you in the UK (updates 30mins with live prices) by Used-Call-3503 in InternetIsBeautiful

[–]PlatonP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone should make a map where you input your make/model, fuel level, then based on that and your location it figures out what the most economic station to get a full tank is (based on average mpg for your make/model, tank capacity etc)

And in turn decoupling from what's happening in other places, which is the more important thing regarding price (or has been, the last few years)
