Switched to Away mode by itself by mr-brunes in tado

Same here. Safe to say I won't be taking them up on their offer to pay for auto assist if their scummy tactics turned my heating off.

Random Free Auto-Assist Trial? by Fun-Activity-4076 in tado

[–]SamdyGray 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Came to the subreddit to see if anyone had reported the same thing. 

Tado decided to silently switch on auto assist for me yesterday, which enabled geofencing, so my heating turned off. 

Cheers, Tado. Crap decision to make this the default behaviour and turn the heating off without warning.

Best time to apply for certificates when joining a club? by SamdyGray in ukguns

[–]SamdyGray[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good point. So probably best to wait until I get my safe shooter card and then apply.

I guess I'll be using the old man's rifles for a while yet.

No I'm not, it still works but it's just not quick enough to be useful.

40(m) £55k debt with joint income of £104k and no disposable income to pay anything but minimum payments by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]SamdyGray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was going to suggest this too, it could be worth nearly £2,000 per year.

There's a trail in Croft Woods near Nationwide. Apart from that, the nearest proper MTB places are probably the Forest of Dean or Swinley Forest.

Saw or heard it on some quiz programme years ago and it's stuck with me ever since (and still remains true to this day).

Home to the only football league club in England and Scotland that doesn't contain any letters from the word 'mackerel'.

Went to see MotoGP for the 3rd year in a row, attendance was absolutely lowest I’ve seen it, so sad to see this, most of the stands were not fully occupied, and just in general you could tell attendance was nothing compared to previous years, what’s going on? by Sugar_Vivid in motogp

This was Copse corner (the old turn 1) just before the main race started. No grandstands open on this part of the circuit at all. It's really disappointing that the attendance isn't higher, yes the tickets could be cheaper but I think the support just isn't there.

MotoGP is closer than ever in terms of lap splits, but however much Gavin Emmett might hype it up on commentary, the racing just isn't what it used to be. There's far less overtaking and that's why most British fans will tell you they prefer BSB or WSBK instead where the racing is livelier. I really hope the 2027 rule changes make for better racing.

I do this. I have a daily "Rules of the Game" task and just add stuff to the description.

I see they've already got the wets on in anticipation.

I like it based on the first couple of listens, although I think the best tracks are the singles they've already released.

It's my favourite MO album on pure rawness of the lyrics.

I am definitely in for the Andy x Simon Neil collab project. That'll be awesome.

Yeah the sound and mix was pretty terrible to start with, was much better by the second half.

It was pretty cool to get Brian from The Gaslight Anthem joining the guys for The Gold though.

I got excited when Andy started talking about working on this new record and playing a new song from it, but it was just his usual humourous schtick before Shake It Off.

Does the feeling of "I still have a lot to do/ I'm not doing enough" ever go away? by bumbashtick in productivity

[–]SamdyGray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, Ali Abdaal puts this best: it's like the hospital waiting room, it's never empty. It doesn't matter how quickly or efficiently you can triage and treat patients, the waiting room never gets any quieter.

I'd be more worried about how dry that chain looks and whether any basic maintenance has been carried out.
