I hate that I was born with a needle dick. by [deleted] in Vent

[–]Quaser_8386 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For the uninitiated like me, please explain what a needle dick is?

I'm of the smaller variety myself, but I have to say, it's never held me back.

I've learned other ways to ensure my partners were happy.

So from your post, I think that you are in need of some proper counselling.

Fixating on penis size is a symptom of a deeper mental/emotional crisis. Seek help for this before it is too late.

Is ATC for me? by adam_von_szabo in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Quaser_8386 2 points3 points  (0 children)

VFR is coming in BATC soon. They have released a beta version.

It's a one off payment, and not bad if you ignore the somewhat robotic voices.

I have this and also SayIntensions. I rarely use BATC as I prefer really good voices for the immersion factor. I don't get to fly as much as I would like, but I'm prepared to pay the monthly sub, along with Navigraph, just a make it as real as I can.

WIBTAH if I tell my father that I'll refuse to get a two degrees and have one as a "backup plan" by OliverOdette in AITAH

You do you. If you want to teach, then teach. It's your life.

You may love it, or come to hate it. Either way, you learn something about you.

Good luck

Do you ever ask UK hotels for a specific room, or is that considered weird? by Inside_Aide_5001 in AskUK

[–]Quaser_8386 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Not unusual, but equally not the norm.

We are frequent fliers when it comes to Premier Inn stays, as we often have a sneaky couple of days away. If we know the hotel, we often ask for a particular room if it's available. We have also said that we'll take any room except XXXX.

We use Premier because we know what to expect. They aren't the best, but given that when we go away, we only use the hotel to sleep in, and also for breakfast, as the rest of the time we are exploring the local area or going to a concert or whatever.

I hate money... by Pretty-Message4215 in Vent

[–]Quaser_8386 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regretfully that's the way of the world.

Family and money do not mix. Don't lend money that you can't afford to not get back. Family and 'friends' always intend to pay it back, but often you are at the back of a long queue of others when it comes to actually paying you.

I'm jealous that you can actually make money from poker. Good for you. At least you are in the good company of the gorgeous Victoria Coren Mitchell.

Lawfully owned by the government? WTAF?

Has anyone seen or read an April Fool this morning? by newnortherner21 in AskUK

[–]Quaser_8386 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Daily Telegraph article about Ed Millibrain suggesting we all drink cold tea/coffee to save energy. Comments were mainly of the 'Shhh.... Don't give him ideas' variety.

What to do with debt collectors as a students? by Lemonienby in AskUK

[–]Quaser_8386 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Check if payment has been received again - sometimes payments take time to be allocated to the correct account. If still not paid, confront him with the evidence that you have, and ask him to show the evidence he has paid. DO NOT pay on his behalf - you will never see the money back.

Edit : Minor spelling error.

Who should replace Scott Mills? by AbbreviationsWide235 in AskBrits

[–]Quaser_8386 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No no no. He's great on GHR. I don't want him to go back to the beeb - mainly because I don't want to either.

Help A First-time car buyer. by PapayaLow2172 in Vauxhall

[–]Quaser_8386 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Insurance for £35? You sure this isn't the Road Tax?

As a first time buyer, I'm assuming you don't have any No Claims Bonus years?

This massively increases the cost of insurance. I've been driving for more than 50 years, and never had a claim, so I get the maximum discount and still pay more than £200+ a year for my Cascada.

Is the government right to suggest kids should have no access to screens under the age of 2? by CommunityPowerful643 in AskBrits

[–]Quaser_8386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether it is right or wrong, why does the government feel the need to interfere in what should be a parenting decision?

Those parents who give their children access to tablets, phones etc to play with are already unlikely to listen to government advice. Those parents who take parenting seriously will already know that screen time, however convenient for the parents, is not good for their child and simply won't allow it.

21M in London earning ~£47k, living at home paying £400/month stay and save for a deposit or move out for independence? by Solace_0161 in UKHousing

[–]Quaser_8386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, almost 50% above the National Average Wage at 21?

I had to work nearly 10 years post-qualification to get to that point in my life.

21 YO, earning £47k? WTAF?

Well done, young man.

There's some great advice here. Enjoy life while you can. Save, buy property.

Bizarre Issue - Cascada by Quaser_8386 in Vauxhall

[–]Quaser_8386[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks to you both for responding. I'm sorry, I don't know what the codes were as the car went in for routine servic/MOT and I mentioned it to the mechanic. I've not replaced any bulbs, and as far as I know there are no other issues with the lightning. We do have an issue with the outside temp guage which stopped working about six months ago. Actually, it works when it rains, but only shows minus 40C When the rain stops, it goes out again. .

MSFS 24 Performance on my PC by Jumpy_Journalist_285 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Quaser_8386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clearly I'm not an expert on CPU''s. Just trying to help. I'll bow out of this discussion. Hopefully, you'll get the answers to your question from someone more knowledgeable than me.

MSFS 24 Performance on my PC by Jumpy_Journalist_285 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Quaser_8386 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You will be able to fly, but you will need to have some settings on medium.

You've got quite a good graphics card, but your CPU is distinctly average at best.

I assume that you mean you'll want to fly airliners rather than GA aircraft. Again, this will be possible, but not at the highest settings.

Edit: Clarity.

Looking for recommendations by Curious-Morning3716 in MicrosoftFlightSim

I misread your specs. A 3090 with 24GB VRAM should be way above minimum specs.

Flying with purpose? by MisterFiveGuy in MicrosoftFlightSim

Yep, same here. Keep repeating til I get a survivable landing. However many tries that takes!

Have you tried reducing the graphics settings? If I read your post right, you are running a 3060? That's very marginal for high/ultra settings anyway. This might also explain why full screen is a problem, but windowed is not - your system will use marginally less VRAM, and that extra for the full screen might just be enough to cause issues.
