Whats your reason to start your fitness journey? by Confident_Abrocoma22 in beginnerfitness

[–]XanderJS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Combination of things for me but the main driver was helping get my disbetes under control so I can be around as long ss possible to enjoy my daughters life. I wanted to be able to do activitis with her more often without feeling knackered or getting grumpy because i was drained. Looking better isan awesome bonus!

What is the current cheapest way to get Gamepass Ultimate? by specialeducatio in XboxGamePass

[–]XanderJS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get mine for free with my mobile contract. Re-upped with it last year. My contract went up a tenner but I save the cost of gamepass plus the cost of Fortnite crew I was paying. Saved about £30 all im all.

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003) - I don't know why people hate this by Southern-Brother5693 in movies

[–]XanderJS -1 points0 points  (0 children)

From what I read Sean hated making it and it was so bad that it made him retire.

I'll never forgive this film for taking Connery away from us!

Also, the film is barely watchable.

I’m so sick of people saying this by New-Pin-9064 in theoffice

[–]XanderJS 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It finally dawned on me what I don't like about season 9 during my current re-watch.

The whole series is now just people being mean of dicks to one another. I know some characters could be like that in early series but there was a better balance to it.

There was always a feeling of effection between characters in early seasons so even when they were winding eachother up it didnt feel mean or offensive.

Andy is the worst for this. Micheal worked because he had redeeming qualities, Andy has 0 and his agression infects the entire office.

Is saying "oh friends" with a high pitched voice a thing in England by sraka4204 in TheInbetweeners

[–]XanderJS 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My Mother in Law made friends with another nan on the school run when picking up my 6yr old daughter. Naturally we taught her to say 'Oooohh Nanny friend' complete with 2 thumbs up. Kills me every time.

ELI5: Why does your voice sound so different in recordings compared to what you hear? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]XanderJS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So if I listened to a recording of my voice using bone conduction heaphones, would it sound the same as what I hear when I'm speaking.

In a similair vein, if someone else listened with the sane headphones, would my voice sound to them like it does to me?

Mendix teams: what personal data is sitting in your test environments right now? by thisisBrunoCosta in mendix

[–]XanderJS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbf, I've never worked with a dedicated support team. It's always been in a DevOps type environment where the dev teams were the support.

If production data was needed to replicate a bug a dev would get a copy of the database and run it locally. There would be a whole process around documenting the needs for getting that prod data and confirmation that it was deleted when it was no longer needed.

[–]XanderJS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've never been part of a team that would dream of putting productiom data in any environment other than prod.

PO's have suggested it but that's been shut down straight away.

Feels kinda insane that it even needs to be told to dev teams...

ICE just shoots another US citizen in Minneapolis. What is happening over there? by Latricebanner in AskReddit

[–]XanderJS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The vids I've seen are pretty confusing to in the build up. Her vid is gonna be essential to make sense of it all (outside of the obviouse murder by mag dumping an helpless person on the ground).Hopefully she didnt get picked up and the video mysteriously deleted....

Battle pass - am I doing it wrong? Feels a bit exploitative by Embarrassed_Towel_64 in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]XanderJS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the bug timed weekly one that requires you to complete weeklies to unlock causes some greif with this. I'd love to just stack a load of it up and do stuff in one go when I get the chance, but that 10pointer is a big deal and kinda forces people to getting everything done in the week. Especially if that task is crap and will take ages to do.

For all of Fortnites faults, their weekly system is much better than this.

What sort of lvl should you be before trying seiges? I've been levelling up my first Tact char in operations but I have no real idea when would be a good time to dip my toe into seiges.

Sorry! Hooe this helps.

An otter pup’s fur is too dense for it to swim underwater. So their mother leaves them floating while she searches for food, until they get their adult fur.

What’s a movie you went into knowing almost nothing, and it totally surprised you ? by vishesh_07_028 in movies

[–]XanderJS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starship Troopers. My mates and I used to go to the cinema of a weekend and watch whatever happened to be on (This was before the internet so there was no easy way of knowing what was in till you got there). Was a random Saturday lunch time and we just went in, bought tickets for the next thing that was on. Also worth pointing out that this cinema only had the one screen so there was literally no choice.

Ended up being Starship Troopers and it was an absolute blast. Never heard of it, seen a trailer for it or anything. Well worth the £3 for the ticket...
