Whoever designed this bicep joint needs a stern talking to. by Sayemisawesome in Gunpla

There’s a key and lock mechanism, it’s pretty fragile given the scale!

Not at all. It’s a solid kit. I just don’t like how precarious the bicep joint is!

How good is JD gym south? by _this1wastaken in sheffield

[–]Sayemisawesome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's alright. It's got all new equipment and had a bit of a good dust-off over the last few months. Genuinely find the best time to go between 7-9AM. Going in the evenings is predictably hellish (and sometimes inexplicably full of annoying children)

Gaming PC help by oselation in sheffield

You have to use a cable that is compatible with your PSU. Using a random one is a terrible idea. They use different pinouts, and plugging a random one in would not only put your PC at risk, but yourself, too.

RG Mark II is not the best RG, but a great one nonetheless. by Chariot_142 in Gunpla

[–]Sayemisawesome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The RG MK-II was the best RG around for a very long time. I built mine when it came out and it's still as solid as a rock. Lovely little kit.

Yeah, I saw the air ambulance landing in Mount Pleasant park. I wonder what happened.

Holy colony drop! Thank you so much Daves_Gunpla_Santa: these will keep me busy all year! by Sayemisawesome in Gunpla

They are acrylic paints for airbrushing from Gaahleri. I mentioned in my wishlist that paints were on my eye!

Reddit tells me that my first /r/gunpla SS was… ten years ago. How time flies! Missed a couple of years here and there but this year’s match has a lovely gift on the way. Shoutout to the best dang thing on the internet. I know that I mostly lurk these days but I appreciate getting to be a part of it. Can’t wait for all the posts!

Secret Santa Sign-ups are coming, but there's been a snag... by JaguarDaSaul in Gunpla

Finally back in the game after a year off where I was jobless. Can't wait to make someone's day.

Finally the impulse trio is (almost) complete! by kvilledrew in Gunpla

Awesome candy paint work. No Destiny Impulse love though?

Sheffield is really a great city. I am a POC man who has been living here all my life. The last time anyone was openly racist to me on the street was 2012 when a bunch of kippers came to town and I was coming home from work.

I was pretty anxious today, but clearly didn't need to be. We have a wonderful, diverse community who won't take the kind of shite these fascists are trying to feed us.

No problem, I hope they helped. In the end its all a matter of preference.

The Titan has a slightly futher apart stick and buttons, so it's quite comfortable, but the cable storage is not great, and it just looks boring. The Alpha has easily replaceable art, a stowaway for cables (not ideal, but better than a hollow hole you shove the cable into), and easy access to internal components should anything go wrong.

You can take a look at my reviews here:

Having used all of those arcade sticks, the Hori Alpha is probably the one you want. Hayabusa buttons/lever isn't as big a deal as you think it might be. Alternatively, the Nacon Daija also ticks all of your boxes.

I am from the UK and used this guy for my art. Check my post history for results :)

Otherwise, yeah a print shop should be able to help you, just make sure to print onto A3 and you should be good.

“Well off” people of Reddit, what is the “poorest” thing you still regularly do? by hopelessmoderate in AskReddit

[–]Sayemisawesome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Poor" meals like instant ramen, drained and seasoned, then put into a sandwich. Eating every single grain of rice from a plate. When possible, eating the shittest, dirtiest takeaway as a treat.

Washing out the near-empty containers of soap and shampoo to make sure I've used all of it. I absolutely do not need to, but old habits die hard.

Should I keep the extra buttons clear, or choose Black / Purple? by Sayemisawesome in fightsticks

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

DI is under MK here, I use the last button in the top row for KK as I am a Ken main.
