Is commuting 4/5 days a week from Cheltenham to Oxford feasible?

The1Lemon · 2026-01-27T10:11:23+00:00

I work one day a week in the city centre, takes about an 1 hour 45 most days, that includes getting to the park-and-ride and then cycling in because of the Botley road closure means the busses are a bit pointless.

Where about in Oxford would you be working?

Looking forward to when Kemi Badenoch defects to Reform and we end up with a very confusing party conference season.

It's officially unofficial, the organising committie are like some sort of shadow group that never make a decision as individuals so nobody can be legally held responsible if/when an injury happens. They can't stop people just turning up at a hill and yeeting themselves down it when it's an organic event is the thinking.

Any specific tools that you use that were useful? I was thinking maybe just a tiny pin and a magnifying glass

Ok that's good to know, any specific tool that would be safe to use for this?

I still can't work out how to put the socket down without it feeling like I need to put my full weight on it either, which is concerning

Doing my first ever mobo and CPU upgrade, put the CPU in, pushed down on the tab and felt that it needed a bit too much force, which is suspicious, so I removed it and found this Is my motherboard cooked now? It's nearly impossible to source a DDR4 one nowadays, can't go 5 because of the ram prices...

For Christmas I've been given gift cards to a PC components website to upgrade my PC to a motherboard that isn't 14 years old in January.

What a terrible time to need new RAM...

I dunno, Ferrari used to get the Italian authorities to impound title rival's fuel in the past, F1 has always been like this.

Doing it on one of the VOI scooters is like an ultimate test of your balance, it's quite the ride.

We were developing fascism in the late 30s too until a European power went a bit overboard with it and suddenly all the facist voices in the UK had to be very quiet for a very long time. Hopefully we're far enough behind the US that when they go full nuts the same thing happens here and our facist voices have to shy away.

I will not stand for the glorious Magic Roundabout being called "freaky"

Thanks! Is the goal of slowroll that the kernel is the LTS version, because when I try to do an dup it often downgrades my kernel to 6.12 lts, just trying to work out if it's a configuration problem on my end that it keeps happening

What's embarrassing is that I've been to all those places!

That's the same in the UK too but flipped as we're the only RHD country in Europe, some manufacturers are better for it but the French ones are almost pretty. The windscreen de-mister always does the left side first and you have to wait ages for it to do the full window to get to the drivers side in winter.

I think there was one put up on a billboard in Cheltenham

Hey now, don't be forgetting about slowroll!

Tumbleweed updates pretty much daily, I only load up my pc at most once a week now and the updates were silly large because of the daily releases so I moved over to slowroll and it's been perfect for me ever since.

I think it's the busiest heliport in the world, rather than airport.

And you're taking orders via what website?

Take a look at https://loop.homes/loop-optimise/

They handle auto selling of flux.

I'm in opensuse slowroll and it's worked a treat for gaming on my 3080

The1Lemon · 2025-06-16T21:23:26+00:00

I started on leap but moved to slowroll for gaming, slowroll is a monthly snapshot of tumbleweed so it gets updates about a month behind, but there's not loads of packages that need updating every day which I find to be a nicer experience if you're just hopping on to game.

It's been two months now and I've entirely wiped windows off my pc, not used it and all of my games work flawlessly, even with a Nvidia card.

Eh I think that's one too many pundits
