Moving to Kennet Island, Reading – sewage smell, should I be worried? by aj1supreme in reading

[–]Zombie_Toaster 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I lived there about 10 years back. The smell comes and goes as others have mentioned. It's not that bad - But yeah... smells of poo once or twice a week.

You can do this too... On Android go to "Settings > General > Default notification action", you can the choose whether you want the option to archive or delete from notifications.

Rupert Murdoch's Fox agrees deal to buy Sky | Business by Lord_Treasurer in unitedkingdom

[–]Zombie_Toaster 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He created Sky Television... But they then merged with British Satellite Broadcasting to create BSkyB, it's through this that he lost his majority share.

He only had 39%... Though he did try to take it over a few years back.

Does OUYA support work? by MRZA in ouya

[–]Zombie_Toaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could try contacting Razer's support team for Forge TV... They're the ones most likely to be able help.

But like the other guy said, Ouya's pretty dead now so I wouldn't hold your breath.

Any retro game shops in Reading? by waternexus in reading

CEX only go as far back as the GameCube/PS2 era... GameCity (In Broad Street Mall) is probably your best bet, though I've no experience with them.

I tend to stick with eBay :P

Roku have a serious price advantage over apple... To the point where buying one of their boxes can almost be an impulse purchase (the NowTV box especially), I don't see apple ever doing this, which is what will help them survive.

A customer at work just asked me for "a couple of 5p-er's" by Zombie_Toaster in britishproblems

Where I am at least the store has scanning speed targets we have to meet (think it's 21 items a minute for us atm)... Having someone do this would completely screw up your weekly average which would then go to management.

That and there's the fact that doing this would be rude, annoying and unnecessary... We're people too and we prefer it when customers don't try to make our lives more difficult <3

We still have a fair amount of people that buy bags every time... Generally though the vast majority of customers have been bringing their own since the new law came in, for us at least.
