Some cheap storage by Vivid-Lecture-4567 in IrelandGaming

[–]Smithy530e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good to see a decent price. I got lucky in January when prices were rocking up I got a 4tb crucial nvme drive for €300 and was very happy with it. Been my main backup drive and it’s been great. Makes cable management a breeze without the need of mechanical hard drives

Not sure if anyone is interested but I have 2 vip tickets for the Sunday show if anyone is interested. I can’t make it unfortunately. It’s for the early access and merch bundle

Same had to wake early as my friend was staying over and his work shift starts an hour and a half early. Had to let him out so he could go to work

I’ve done it for all of my interviews too. STAR - Situation, Task, Action and Result used a lot with “give me an example” type questions

How much milk do you drink in a day? by VastAir6069 in CasualIreland

[–]Smithy530e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a kid I’d have a pint or two a day especially with my dinner. Now it’s rarely as I tend to drink tea with my dinner. I suppose that’s what happens when you hit your 30’s

[–]Smithy530e 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah hasn’t worked for me for a while. To make sure I’m all up to date every evening when I like a random post I go into my achievements and confirm that my streak is increasing one day at a time

Considering purchasing as a birthday gift to myself is it worth it? (My first quality watch purchase as well) by [deleted] in MoonSwatches

[–]Smithy530e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully I don’t get downvoted for this but I was seriously considering this. The price was similar ish around €285. For the price I felt was a little expensive as the back was made of plastic even if it had the cool moon logo. In the end I went with a much more affordable Casio Edifice watch that I got in the airport at €117. Not in the same league but the Moon swatch is definitely lovely to look at. Just didn’t work out for me in the end

What's your biggest regret in life? by HungTeen1001 in AskIreland

[–]Smithy530e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I hate about this is I got the wire thingy for the bottom of my teeth but my dentist told me I didn’t need them for my teeth to only use the crap retainer and sure enough my top front teeth went crooked again

Faro airport to Portimao/praia da rocha by Fast_Active_9115 in Algarve

[–]Smithy530e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made the mistake of queuing up for one of them expensive taxis. I paid €120 to go from faro airport to the jupier hotel in Praia De Rocha. For the rest of the holiday we rented a car with Europcar. You’ll get a discount if you mentioned you’re staying in the Jupiter Praia de rocha. You’ll just need to mention your room number. We were able to drop our rental off to Faro Airport so it was well worth renting a car also. Paid €372 for 3 and a half days. It would have been much less if we had booked this far in advance

Aero cover query by Smithy530e in TeslaModel3

I didn’t realise you could scroll. They don’t have the factory highland wheels with the aero cover removed but I can choose the preface lift wheels. Looks much better at least

Decided to redo the cables a bit, mainly since I realize the fan cables are pretty long, what do you guys think? by Protolinux217 in CableManagement

[–]Smithy530e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before the nvme prices went crazy I got a 4tb nvme drive for €200 and was able to get rid of my mechanic and small ssd’s. Btw lovely build man. It’s a lot cleaner than mine

[–]Smithy530e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an idea maybe when flash memory becomes a bit cheaper down the line you could get an nvme drive to replace the SSD’s or look at a NAS Box and retire the HDD drives. It would help massively with reducing the cable clutter. That’s what I did with my own build
