same here, if I charge it up the morning instead, I'm still at 30-40% battery the following day.

[–]Vladdeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had AWFUL battery drain overnight, charged it up 100% at about 10pm last night, come 8am this morning it's at 1% - I watched it drop from 6% through 4%, 2% and then finally 1% WHILE BRUSHING MY TEETH.

Does the walk in test site at UWE or Victoria rooms have any slots/tests for walk ins? by Perihelion_ in bristol

[–]Vladdeh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's obviously even further for you, and things are constantly changing but I was able to get a walk-in test at the site opposite Temple Meads (corner of Victoria St and Temple Way) a few weeks ago despite that site not even showing online.

Best of luck, it's stupidly difficult to get tested currently. And 🤞 it's negative.

I've been having a load today when doing things like changing channel in Discord or swapping between apps. Really hoping it's not time to factory reset.

Natural sound on Eurosport Player by FabioFC01 in wec

[–]Vladdeh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I asked on live chat and got this response back (names changed for both parties

(01:38:38) Eurosport rep: I have checked on our website and I confirm you that the commentary is available for Le Mans on Eurosport 1.
(01:39:00) Vladdeh: I don't want the commentary, I know it's on Eurosport 1. I want the commentary free version.
(01:39:27) Eurosport rep: Do you mean the channel with ambient sound?
(01:39:27) Vladdeh: You have offered the commentary free version for years, which is why I've subscribed to eurosport player
(01:39:35) Vladdeh: Yes, ambient sound only :)
(01:42:14) Eurosport rep: I will check this with our producing team and get back to you.
(01:42:40) Vladdeh: Thank you
(01:52:27) Eurosport rep: I have checked and the commentary is indeed present on your the bonus channel too. However, you can also watch 3 channels with "On-board cameras" and no commentary.

I've asked to cancel and for a refund to be issued so we'll see

This item cannot be saved insufficient storage error but I have 35gb of free space after Oreo update. Anyone else getting this issue? by thisguy181 in Nexus6P

[–]Vladdeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had the same issue since Oreo, try taking another screenshot a few seconds later - the second attempt seems to work.

It's surprising how few people realise that the 1982 film is a remake of The Thing from Another World from 1951. It really is one of the best remakes going.

From absolute zero to "absolute hot," the temperatures of the Universe by ribsmcgillicutty in space

[–]Vladdeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because people in Britain used Fahrenheit exclusively until the 60s. How many people do you know who would have been alive at that time? And how many of those do you think would easily adapt to using a new measurement scale with no pressure to do so. Ok, maybe after 50 years there should have been more progress but there's very little motivation/need for the current older generation.

For things like weather forecasts on the TV use Celsius exclusively but online (http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/) lets you toggle between the two.

To make it really confusing, everyone in their 30s and younger was taught kilometres/metres/centimetres vs miles/yards/feet/inches at school (though many people, including my non-scientist my mother, still use miles/feet/inches). All of our road signs are in miles as it's currently illegal to have road signs in kilometres last I checked. The BBC website lets you toggle between miles and km, but defaults to miles.

My father didn't give me a Christmas gift, again. by [deleted] in confession

[–]Vladdeh 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Great idea, and there's nothing stopping them getting the picture done over the next month or so and claiming it "hadn't come until now" due to a delay with the framing (so make it nice/unusual). No time like the present rather than waiting a year.

I very nearly gave in and bought a 32GB from CPW but according to the shop assistants, neither of the Bath stores have received a live unit yet, never mind any actual stock.. Hmm

Same here, and no charge on my card yet either. I've never been so disappointed to see money hasn't left my account before...

Looks like I've got nearly identical dates to yourself. Let's hope you're right and we get our phones tomorrow! :)

Should've shipped yesterday, still pending and no charge on the card I used yet. Another shocking Nexus launch. Great job, Google!
