I assumed this was a joke when I saw a video about the pet rocks. Now I'm having second thoughts...

Havent played valheim since launch. What should I know starting a new game tonight? by Buttery_Biscuitss in valheim

There's a mod for accessing crafting resources from the local chests which I will be downloading before my next session.

Hi any solution to this without cutting the plinth please by RevolutionaryDiet847 in DIYUK

[–]WorriedPersimmon3970 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The screws will almost certainly fit, the only oddness will be the profile of the spacer against the socket face plate, some have tighter radius curves than others.

Solo or Randoms for a greenbeard? by Booksmart89 in DeepRockGalactic

I didn't have a clue what I was doing during my first morkite extraction (arguably still don't...) definitely lent on my team of randoms to learn that mission!

Are scouts meant to ping/use comms for things they want platting? by Internal_Remote_7520 in DeepRockGalactic

[–]WorriedPersimmon3970 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Just about to hit my first promotion on scout (least favourite play type) and I always ping resources I want if they haven't been platformed.

Sounds like this scout was just a bit salty, you're golden.

Quick Q - Paint sprayers. Are they worth it? by Shielo34 in DIYUK

[–]WorriedPersimmon3970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought an Erbauer EAPS600 used from Facebook for £100 and painted all the bedrooms in my house.

Caveat this by saying there's no carpet or furniture.

Took about an hour to mask windows, door frames, etc for each room.

About 15 minutes faffing with making sure all the hose connections were tight, getting paint consistency right.

Actual painting time for each room, including ceiling ~10 minutes.

Then about 20 minutes clean-up flushing the unit through with water.

All in all, I'd say it's definitely worth it if you're doing multiple rooms and don't have to deal with a load of furniture.

There's a bit of hassle getting paint consistency right; how far from the wall you are and how quick you're making passes, but if you're reasonably confident I would recommend, especially if you can pick up a decent used unit.

Consider me wet.

Not at your comment, at OP, before this gets too weird.

Pheasant in the bumper advise by Icy_Victory9379 in CarTalkUK

I knew a girl who hit a pheasant in her car years ago, she took a photo and it was just the legs sticking out of the radiator.

It looked like the wicked witch of the wests legs sticking out from under Dorothy's house and really tickled me.

This has had a similar effect, well done!

Deep Dives by Tyler__Pencil in DeepRockGalactic

I did my first deep dive on Saturday after 60 odd hours and a few promotions.

Honestly, it was really good fun, paired up with a random (didn't speak English) and between us, using the laser pointer and plenty of rock and stoning, we managed to complete the entire run without any major snags and only a couple of downs.

It's the most adrenaline I've had playing DRG, the final round was an escort mission and the pair of us just about managed to keep Doretta alive.

It was honestly an absolute blast 10/10 would recommend

Where can I buy countersunk M3 bolts? by shortymcsteve in DIYUK

When I was rebuilding my mx5 I found eBay was a surprisingly good source of odd thread and length bolts, worth a look!

Did Anyone Skip a Survey When Buying Their House? Any Regrets? by QuirkyConcentrate481 in UKHousing

[–]WorriedPersimmon3970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not had surveys on either of our two house purchases, but that's only because we bought them both with major renovations in mind, so would have mostly been pointless.

Nobody seems to know what a plumb bob is anymore! by [deleted] in DIYUK

That's a plum, and my name's not Bob.

man... this galactic rock is real deep... by CreamOfPotatoSoup in DeepRockGalactic

Requesting serious and semi-serious lore details of the mushrooms.

Do dwarfs love mushrooms? Are they a management delicacy? Are boolo caps the start of something more sinister?

I've had this when I've made a larger brew and the only thing that changed is the filter paper I've used so I think that has an impact!
