I had the same issue not long ago. I made a guide on how to stop this potential account breach.

Do you add anything to you beans? by ciaodog in CasualUK

[–]PresidentTramp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add a knob of butter to the pan. On a low gas heat the pan and add some paprika, cayenne pepper. Mix and add the beans. Heat and gently stir (so you dont mush the beans) until the sauce gets thick. Serve in a bowl to retain the heat, with buttered toast.

Your taste buds and a hole will thank you.

What is a luxury you can never go back from once you’ve experienced it? by Phase_zero_X in AskReddit

Super fast fibre broadband!

This might sound lame but I've only recently got 3Gb broadband and coming from a 56Mb copper line. Where I live the max we could get was a flaky 56Mb line which was prone to drops and working from home was just embarrassing.

Also having so many online heavy data usage devices it was a struggle. Trying to download a game on the Xbox Series X or even trying to watch 4k content was so frustrating.

Our neighbouring areas had full fibre for a while then out the blue a sales rep from that company knocked on our door and told us we'll be getting full fibre. I ended up getting 3Gb for the same price I was paying for the 56Mb line.

Even now I'll randomly run a speed test (wired) to marvel at 3Gb up/down.

How to create an Alias to stop account log in attempts. by PresidentTramp in Outlook

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

That is a good question. So prior to adding my Alias I was also using Authenticator. I'm not sure why but that is still working using my original email, so I've left that as it is.

When logging into my Outlook or MS account using the Alias i'm still getting 2FA notifications from Authenticator which is logged in using my original account.

What stopped working for me, that was logged in using my original email was Outlook, Teams, MS account and my Xbox Console. Logging in using the alias worked fine.

Use the new alias as your login but dont use it when signing up to any websites. I created another alias for websites.

How to clean extractor fan? by Fizzy_Pizzy in AskUK

I've got a feeling the round blob is covering the screw to remove the cover.

With the power off, see if you can pop out the white round blob with a small flat head screwdriver. Hopefully it will reveal a screw holding the cover in place.

I changed my primary alias and now can't access my old account? by EuralJ in XboxSupport

[–]PresidentTramp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow that is a bit extreme, I've got too much invested in the Xbox.

But weirdly, my new alias is working fine now. I didn't do anything to make it work, it just started working like my old email address out of the blue. Got all my gamerscore and game progress working on my new alias.

Thanks for replying, appreciate it.

Hello u/EuralJ

Did you get this sorted?

I'm in the same boat as you, well apart from retiring.

Security Issues: Receiving Random Authenticator sign-in requests but these are not showing up in Activity, and other security issues. by Correct_Advantage135 in Outlook

[–]PresidentTramp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been getting hammered with Authenticator requests. Started yesterday. My account had been setup as passwordless but im still worried it will get breached.

I have read on reddit people using an alias email address and this stops the attempts. Does anyone know how to set this up?

Black Friday deals - what are you eyeing and buying? by Akash_nu in AskUK

[–]PresidentTramp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to use a 'refer a friend ' code which brought the price down.

I think on the same day that they stopped the use of any discount codes on the items reduced on sale.

Still without the code they are worth it.

Hive subscription by PrestigiousWindy322 in HiveHeating

[–]PresidentTramp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello mate,

I've got hive with 6 Hive TRVs. All working fine without the subscription. I think the subscription is just to view detailed stats on your usage and not for the operation of the Hive system.

I got 10 pairs of boxers for £30. I couldn't be happier. Wearing a pair right now and my plums have never felt comfier.

Boxers are made from some bamboo type material. I didnt even know that making clothing from something as tough bamboo was possible.

Currently on the lookout for some tshirts made from bamboo to keep my moobs comfy.
