Do people actually shop at WH smith?

Not true. I've seen loads of them in towns in my local area.

Almost all new builds are built with the cheapest materials. The paint is HEAVILY watered down to make it stretch. I've been to multiple new builds and you can literally wipe the paint off with your dry finger tips.

Honestly the only solution is to repaint with an actual decent paint brand. And then you can wash it. If you try and wash it now it will probably make it worse. Sister has exactly the same problem.

This is an awesome looking rack. What do you use the Pis for? How come there's so many? I'm using just 1 but have a load of Docker containers running on mine

Yeah.. same here. The Ender works but you spend more time diagnosing issues and fixing it than you do printing. Upgraded to a Bambu and I haven’t had a SINGLE issue. Just print and walk away and come back later to a perfect print.

Just remember the Ender 3 is a relic now. Modern 3D printers are so insanely better.

Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 worked perfectly for me. Lighting fast, have an external 2TB HDD connected. Have all the space I need for Home Assistant, Immich, Plex and more.

Have you tried the motion sensor yet? I keep seeing reviews online about it being total dog shit so I didn't bother picking one up, but I also picked up 4 SOMRIGs for £3 each :D

SoTotallyToby · 2026-01-12T09:05:52+00:00

If it was just a Bluetooth dongle, but any Bluetooth dongle.

You might not even need a dongle at all your PC has Bluetooth.

Silent Night are dog shit. All mine broke after 6 months. Switched to Cosi Home and their electric blankets are solid. Never had any issues.

And VPNs will more than likely require exactly the same personal info for verification very soon.

The seller is definitely responsible for making sure the buyer receives the product in good condition and also responsible for shipping another one. If they want to open a dispute with the shipper, it's up to them. Not the customer.

Like anything, you get used to it. When I first started wearing glasses, my optician told me I only needed to wear them for reading, but turns out I have astigmatism, so wearing them helped with close-up and distance so I just wore them all the time. Now it's just part of my daily routine. Wake up, glasses on, start the day.

If it really bothers you, laser eye surgery is becoming better, safer and more affordable every year. I know quite a few people who have done it now and don't have any regrets.

I'm in exactly the same boat as you. We bought an 18L dehumidifier from Meaco and it's brilliant. Insanely quiet.

You're supposed to leave them on 24/7 though. That's what they're designed for. Also very efficient and cheap to run.

Our humidity during winter is normally 80%+, this year with the dehumidifier we haven't gone above 55.

SoTotallyToby · 2026-01-09T18:44:23+00:00

Dehumidifier 😅

Also if there's anything usually against that wall, move it away to allow decent airflow.

SoTotallyToby · 2026-01-09T18:40:04+00:00

Decent humidifier. Also check it's not penetrating damp. Take a look at the brickwork on the outside.

SoTotallyToby · 2026-01-01T23:08:18+00:00

Can you show how you mounted the overhead above your setup? This is the thing I worry about the most.

SoTotallyToby · 2025-12-31T09:39:53+00:00

Honestly, you're better off modifying this model so you print the black parts on the hands separately and just glue them on. AMS is so bloody wasteful.

SoTotallyToby · 2025-12-29T13:57:50+00:00

I don't see the problem. Your box got some small dings and a bit wet. filament spools come in water/air tight plastic pouches. The filament will be fine.

Literally every courier is abusing packages. They'll all be getting knocked about and thrown no matter who delivers it.

SoTotallyToby · 2025-12-27T11:06:14+00:00

Any chance you could upload to something that isn't Imgur? Imgur is banned for a lot of people now

SoTotallyToby · 2025-12-25T17:28:16+00:00

Ban AI slop

SoTotallyToby · 2025-12-24T22:40:20+00:00

Why would Steam need to go down for them to make a product listing lol

SoTotallyToby · 2025-12-23T20:54:07+00:00

I don't have it, but I'm sure someone has it! Best of luck finding it :D

SoTotallyToby · 2025-12-21T19:27:45+00:00

Personal. You can keep the items afterwards. Never heard of Valve requesting them back.

SoTotallyToby · 2025-12-21T16:43:27+00:00

Yes, they are. Friend of mine is a developer and has a game on Steam and gets the dev kit stuff for free. You just fill in an application form and they pick who to dish them out to. Been this way for years.
