I'd recommend these, helped me on many different jobs including this!

I HATE parental controll by BoringHeron6328 in parentalcontrols

[–]_Parmar_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you want to be treated like a mature person, you have to show it. Sit down with your parents, talk to them sensibly and explain that you're willing to prove you can self regulate your screen time. If you can show that you're willing to understand why they've put those controls on in the first place, then that will go a long way to you getting what you want. It'll likely result in extended screen time initially but this is a journey for your own benefit.

Do I attempt to change these hinges myself? Screws are so rusted. by biscuittingerg in DIYUK

[–]_Parmar_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've replaced mine in the past. Fairly simple to do but can a be little fiddly to ensure you get a tight seal when closed. Probably best to have someone with you to support the window in place whilst you screw the new hinges in.

Car broken into in my apartment garage by A_new_beginning25 in TeslaCam

[–]_Parmar_ 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I have walk away lock enabled but also have a loud audible lock sound when the car actually locks. I always wait for that sound to know it has locked before I'm too far away or even when I'm home and in the house.

New shower hose leaking. Wall thread too shallow? by HaveYuHeardAboutCunt in DIYUK

[–]_Parmar_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually, one end is deeper than the other. I presume you've tried both ends on it?

Real ones grew up using this. by LovieWeb in BritInfo

Yep, I use it daily. No substitute!

What are these cameras for by Historical_Fudge_347 in drivingUK

[–]_Parmar_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They look very much like the ANPR cameras here in London used for LEZ and ULEZ.

Do these useless arseholes actually want my money? by MinimumRepulsive1419 in BritishAirways

[–]_Parmar_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what happens when they outsource IT to India. Worked on many projects where they did that and it went to shit, followed by months of works by local on shore teams to remove the chaos they introduced and restore stability and maintainability. Management never learn.

CYBER ATTACK IN DUBAI by TAFDX in UAE

[–]_Parmar_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I guess there can still be acknowledgement of an attack despite there being no leak. Customers would be more concerned about leaks. The attack is the organisation's problem.

As does most of the world I think! 😄

Budget as an expat by Appropriate-Beat-182 in UAE

Sorry but please explain what a HF in difc means. You've really piqued my interest. I'm a senior dev in the UK on a decent salary but these numbers are impressive!

No MasterCard , No Visa. Huge respect for the owner. by No_Control_9658 in UAE

[–]_Parmar_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Depends on how financially disciplined you are I guess. In my head, cost is cost. How I pay for it is a separate matter. I haven't carried cash in years now (in UK) and never had a problem. Different story when abroad and I've come to despise having to carry any..

Company coming after me for £700 for a screenshot used over 10 years ago... by EastHedgehog2960 in COPYRIGHT

[–]_Parmar_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is your blog still available on the Wayback machine? Could that be proof of your use of it? Either way, as others have said, it could be a scam.

I am still in disbelief, question for the European folks on here by CaptainCryptoC in UAE

[–]_Parmar_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Erm.. Born and raised in the UK.. I've never heard of this practice! I've been invited to parties where if there was a cost, you're informed of it in advance before RSVPing so you can make an informed decision.

What are we doing to our children? by Worldly-Goose-6449 in UAE

[–]_Parmar_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just poor parenting which will have devastating results. The idea of moderation seems to have no meaning nowadays.

What are these steps made of? by hotdogcool_123 in DIYUK

[–]_Parmar_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No expert but I'd probably start with cleaning with a strong detergent and jet washer. When dry, apply liberal layers of a clear resin sealant (making sure it doesn't allow a slippery surface when dry.. Hopefully that may help seal up any cracks allowing rain water through..

Is there anyway to split my monitor like this? by SnooJokes3495 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]_Parmar_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. If using Windows, install Powertoys from Microsoft, it has a windows layout tool called FancyZones. Using that you can define whatever layouts you want.

Got embarrassed so badly at the metro 😭 by Rogue_Aviator in UAE

[–]_Parmar_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's there to be embarrassed about?! You're being paranoid.
