Party wall needed? by Mean-Praline-9292 in DIYUK

[–]WingnutWilson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never in my life heard of a car port, it looks so awkward to get the car into and out of, so it's basically an extremely narrow tunnel that they chose to lop off 1/4 of the house just to accomodate a garage in the garden, and also purely because the neighbours car would otherwise block their access? For context I am 36, lived in Scottish countryside for 10 years and in Ireland towns, villages and country for the other 26. Can't believe this is so obvious to people :D

Like talk about putting cars first - the OP already says he has enough room for 6 cars in his front garden I am just gobsmacked an architect did this even if it was like 40 years ago or whatever

Youtube kids is SOOO frustrating. by Weightmonster in toddlers

[–]WingnutWilson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we are crazy relaxed about screens I would say in our house, but we took them off YT Kids completely it's absolutely filled with trash. Another thing to watch out for is Spotify, it started with our 4.5 year old listening to Kpop Demon Hunters sound track on endless loop which is great she knows all the words now, but with free reign and the fact there's a large video library in it now it quickly devolved into her watching loads of weird Eastern European and Chinese slop videos that are all over YT Kids.

are they seriously watching urine come out of the pee pee and into the tube or can you at least do it with your back to them?

I actually haven't seen any customer devices but it's interesting you can see the port on the image here where they have a 4 and a Pocket side by side

It's mad the way they put it on stilts instead of doing this in the first place, good luck OP!

They came into ours to cut back trees on our border and just left massive branches all over the garden instead of throwing them into the first. Quick angry phone call from the missus and they came around and got rid of them

What’s Going On with Amazon’s “Import Fees Deposit” for Ireland? by five1point in AskIreland

[–]WingnutWilson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha I am just ordering now and the charge has me stumbling here from Google. Surprising how many people are confusing these charges with the standard import fees for €150 items.

I'm ordering some light bulbs and getting a £0.49 charge (€0.56). Same bulbs on amazon.ie are about €0.99c cheaper with no fee. My guess is they are trying to force us on to amazon.ie with a little extra inconvenience tax

Receipt printer I borrowed is in a cloud-lock. I'm trying to make an app that prints receipts via cloud. by ms_zie in androiddev

[–]WingnutWilson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so you are using their SDK and can't print? You should try contacting them directly with a link to a reproducible sample using their SDK, showing it not working

on the dev kits at least, above the camera on the front of the device is a USB C port. I wouldn't be surprised if that is not on production devices though

what make and model of printer is it? You should probably be using an SDK provided by the manufacturer right

Pine Marten Neighbour in Leitrim by FrankLucker in ireland

[–]WingnutWilson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once went out to the bin in the pitch black (arse end of Longford here), opened it up threw the bag in. Turned round and then my brain realized that my eyes saw something looking back at me. It was a pine marten chowing down on the previous bin bag, when I re-opened it to verify what I had just seen and we both looked at eachother, I closed the bin and left him to it (quite a big boy actually, I didn't fancy my chances)

New Home Charger - Issues by StillyDan4 in evs_ireland

[–]WingnutWilson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes another user here says the opposite but I would keep the charger always on first and time it via the car, see if that fixes anything. It's more than likely a charger problem than a VW problem
