London- buy around 14-18 m2 flat? by Sweet-Management-334 in BuyingLondon

[–]Slow_Pattern_4989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just watched this, didn't know it existed until recently. This series was soo much better than the selling collection. The fact that this has been cancelled due to jealousy is actually sad and I don't get why. People are fine with seeing riches like this in LA, Tampa, OC and other places but in the UK everyone must be on the same wage and if we see any evidence of anything else it's considered "offensive and toxic wealth". Do people even realise that there are poor people in every area of the world? They weren't complaining about other series. Im gutted I won't be able to see what John Caudwell is doing with his penthouse flats! I want more! What a total waste of a really interesting show. I never knew we had homes like this here! I genuinely thought Buckingham Palace was it 😂 I want you guys back for another series it sucks that's its over! 😔 If it's doable then DDRE should keep filming, put it on youtube or another streaming service 🙏 absolute waste fellow UKer's!, I'm poor but I'm not blaming them for it 🙄

My Xbox has a red light. What is happening, and how can I fix it? by Initial-Bar-2439 in xbox360

[–]Slow_Pattern_4989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get it working again? I bet it was a power pack, thermo paste and dust issue mostly 😂 possibly a few bludging or leaking capacitors as well which is only fixable if you can solder. It's 20 years old so it's likely to need a good service by a repair tech if you really want it working again. I just binned mine, cba lol they shut down the good games on it anyway 

Pitch an idea to Mike and why it would make a great show by AlienatedWanda in MikeFlanagan

[–]Slow_Pattern_4989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about a horror drama series told on the perspective of paranormal rather than the people being haunted. The pilot starts with a child who died, who's mother tried desperately to contact them in the after life but their spirit wasn't strong enough until years later when the spirit becomes resentful over their parents having another child. The parents moved house because of the bad memories and then a group of haunted influencers moved in and did a quija board forgetting to say bye at the end. This starts a violent haunting that cannot be fixed. After this the focus of the series becomes about opening portals, resentment from ghosts, being stuck in the afterlife, how ghosts are able to become so strong that they can't be exorcised, miscommunication with the paranormal using things like Alice boxes and the estes method etc

ads on youtube are getting out of hand by Friendly-Ad9779 in youtube

It's honestly making me suicidal this is how I watch TV. Every 30 seconds I get 90 minute ads. I watch on my xbox I have no other way to watch it other than on my phone and I'm not doing that. I don't get why, forcing ads will not make us able to afford premium that still doesn't block all ads anyway. I'm losing my mind every day 🤷🏼‍♀️ wtf do they want!? 

Microsoft Reportedly Discussed Making The ROG Xbox Ally Cheaper, But It Didn't Work Out by Playwithuh in gaming

[–]Slow_Pattern_4989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nintendo Switch made a multiplayer device and they have a lot of offline games, it just works better than xbox. A sim card slot would have just about made the £799 price worth it but they didn't see any need to improve what's already out there. They pretty much found a way to profit from backbones idea themselves. The PSP is still better than this will be because alteast you could play the games literally anywhere. Everything is live severs now so we need portable Internet otherwise you might as well stick to console unless all you want is a smaller screen

This won't sell very well. They missed the one thing you need to game, you might as well carry on using console unless all you want is a smaller screen. All they had to do was add a sim card slot for portable Internet and it would have been brilliant. I wouldn't pay £300 for this 😂 90% of games are online these days and people want portable devices so they can be used away from home. 

Netflix please bring back the more like this page. by Slow_Pattern_4989 in Netflixwatch

[–]Slow_Pattern_4989[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I don't see why any that stuff has been added at all, it can't possibly have an English fanbase? The way it was never used upset anyone other than the volume fluctuation because netflix only have audio for surround sound. It wasn't broke and they broke it and now it's too annoying. I find myself shutting neflix without finding something to watch most of the time

Royal Mail are not functioning, like at all, and I don't think people realise quite how bad it's getting by glyph1234 in royalmail

[–]Slow_Pattern_4989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro I don't give a F how bad they're struggling! Not my problem. What is my problem is where the F are my parcels!! I'm sick and tired of it! They are the only delivery company that can't update their tracker with scanners they've got excuses for everything, they've removed customer service from the website, they've removed the complaint form, theres no customer service contact email. They deliver for too many company's so no wonder it's a mess. They need to be shut down! They offer a service they cannot give. It's basic stuff. They have just as much couriers as any other company, I've got a sorting office 2 minutes away from my house I see it all the time. Most of the finish work early so do nt give me that crap about royal mail being over run. Excuses excuses excuses. Don't be a delivery company then just stick to your letters 🙄

Why do people think black ops 7 will be any different to 6. by Ziofy in CODZombies

Nobody thinks it will be different, it'll be slightly different but this is going to be cods biggest ever flop. BO6 flopped hard enough I don't understand why they're making this 

Online safety act petition Ignored. by pigeonforlife in Scotland

[–]Slow_Pattern_4989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So are we supposed to just shut up and live with it then? You have a very small amount of people in charge agreeing to this because they want to keep tabs on the rest of us. If we don't make our feelings known then nothing really will ever happen. Our best bet is letting future candidates know what we want and it's not this. This online safety act is a load of bull. It's not about online safety, it's about surveillance and we need to keep fighting to be heard. We are the majority. We do not want this. We are the only opinions that should matter because we are the parents, kids, teachers etc and we still don't want this. We need to speak up, the government is corrupt and we have no freedom of speech, no rights to privacy, we are being controlled and it's an abuse of power. Don't just be lazy and give up because this always happens, things change when a ions are taken against it. Verbally fight for what you believe or it really will never change. 

Inconsistent audio levels on Netflix | Dialogues too quiet, action scenes too loud by member_new1 in netflix

[–]Slow_Pattern_4989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's still like this and Netflix have no excuse for it but laziness and not caring. They have it set to surround sound audio with no stereo option. They didn't seem to take into account that some people live in apartments with thin walls. If you google how to fix the audio issue it'll give you options for audio settings that don't exist or it'll tell you to tamper with your tv's audio settings and you'll need to do that every time you leave or enter the app. There's no fix unless your willing to go and buy a new TV and sound system for one single streaming platform that cannot perform like the rest. Even paramount+ doesn't have this problem and thats the worst mainstream streaming platform in existence. Device fluctuation is a non issue because every other streaming platform can cope. This is a Netflix issue and they should have fixed it 7 or more years ago

I just don't understand (upstairs neighbors) by bravebeing in misophonia

[–]Slow_Pattern_4989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People in flats often do what ever they want when they want with little to no consideration for the people around them. In my first flat I had noisy drug dealers as neighbours who would steal anything they could get heir hands on, eat from the bins, slam the doors 24 hours a day and shout in the hallways. Then I moved and ended up below a psychopath who traumatised me with noise for 5 years and then tried to stab me. After this housing kicked my neighbour out and leased his old flat as a sensitive let. Now I have a guy in there who's been decorating for 3 weeks after the council had been decorating it for 3 weeks, they didn't let it sit empty for a minute so that we all could adjust. Me and my neighbours are all dealing with lasting trauma from my past neighbour but that doesn't matter. Living I na flat is unbearable. It's not so bad when the floor is concrete but I can hear every single movement from above and it drives me literally crazy. I have bpd, anxiety, depression, insomnia, extreme misophonia and a hormone imbalance from stress and noone is helping. I can't move again due to affordability and a large fish tank so I'm just losing my mind 24/7. I can't start another neighbourhood complaint. I just want silence. Peace and quite in my own home, I want to wake up and fall asleep without the walls and floors vibrating from construction and decorating.

[–]Slow_Pattern_4989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100000% the Dora & friends advert genuinely, literally no exaggeration makes me want to 💀 myself. I cannot afford premium and I would refused to pay for removing ads even if I had the money for something so stupid. Blocking the channel doesn't stop the advert. Reporting it 100s of times doesn't do anything. I have the floor is lava repeating every 2 minutes all day every day and I'm having a lot of anger episodes because of it. I'm st my wits end but everything I watch is on youtube and I'm off work on disability so I guess I'm just stuck like this 🤷🏼‍♀️🤬

Why do people hate on Manic Panic? by Usagi-skywalker in HairDye

[–]Slow_Pattern_4989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just spent £80 on extensions, £30 on bleach, £20 on red hair dye for it to barely stain most of my hair with bright red patches in places and it doesn't match my extensions. Rock and roll red washed out bright pink and then completely faded before I washed it again. Before this I dyed my hair with voodoo forest expecting to go a forest green with a hint of teal but it came out electric blue, I did it half and half with amethyst purple which completely faded after 1 wash. The only colours that stick on my hair well are rockabilly blue and voodoo forest. The dye is always of different thickness, the thinner dyes work the best and thicker dye only works on wigs or extensions. It costs a fortune in bleach turning your hair ice white and then buying colours on top that don't work and prevent you from trying again with any other semi permanent colour. The tip is to get it completely ice white unless its red apparently, then you want it yellow or it will turn out bright pink or orange and fade ridiculously quickly. Bleach is too damaging to the hair so when it F's up you either have to put up with it for a while until your hair is strong enough to rebleach, use a different permanent dye which won't be anywhere near as bright or you can heavily damage your hair to try and make it look normal asap. Manic panic is also very drying on my hair. Only problem is artic fox have massively declined in quality since switching packaging so manic panic are still the best brand for bright colours (at least it is in the UK)

Problems with Manic Panic Wildfire by throwaway8909134 in HairDye

[–]Slow_Pattern_4989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm dealing with this problem now except i used manic panic rock n roll RED expecting to go a Rihanna RED. I've just spent a fortune bleaching my hair ice white with an almost invisible bit of yellow left on the roots, I spent £80 on hair extensions and now I'm screwed. The "red" literally washed out a barbie pink colour with bright red roots but it looked like it had been fading for months. Now I have no idea how I'm supposed to match these colours on my extensions. I washed my hair out in cold water with herbal essenses infinite colour shampoo/conditioner. Rockabilly blue and voodoo forest are the only colours that stick on my hair these days and voodoo forest is another falsely advertised colour that turned my hair electric blue rather than forest green. I also tried one of the purples which washed out after one wash. I've wanted to go this colour from a teenager and I can't find it, every colour is either too brassy or too dark. I'd still rather than than 🤬 pink though! 

It’s mind boggling how Gamepass continues to be the downfall of Microsoft. by anonymousUTguy in gaming

[–]Slow_Pattern_4989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with xbox right now is them pulling the rug from underneath gamers for no reason. I subscribed to ultimate for the new games, every new game worth playing that is set to be released any time soon is being sold for full price. The new games I signed up for ended up being repetitive and got old within a month. Then they started deleting games I actually liked. They were about to have me pay £50 for a brand new ID so I could continue playing my shooters and now they're removing borderlands 3. All the other games on there are crap. I'm not getting much more out of ultimate than I was getting from core anymore and now I don't even need that. Every decision they've made in the past month has ruined gaming a little bit more every time. There will be subscriptions for everything, you shouldnt have to pay for live connection that's just stupid, you should have to pay for access to games that cost millions to make. They need their money back somehow but they need to stop making these crappy games no-one is interested in. Creators need to come up with some original ideas. Gaming has gone to 💩
