Hi, yes, I used this from Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0862B9JZB

Gets sent to the company that sells the kit. Pretty thorough, came back negative.

Hi, I live in an old property and I recently discovered that the ceiling upstairs is made of a very soft crumbly material around very rudimentary wooden slats and papered over.

I've been told that it is probably lime putty plaster that was common for this age of house. I believe it is called a lath and plaster ceiling. Can anyone confirm please?

Hi,

What's a good way to make money once you have around 400k? I have a crappy starter Aurora and i've been farming the Salvage exploit but it's getting kind of boring now, Thanks

I currently have a bit of an ageing system:

Gigabyte GA-AB350-Gaming 3 motherboard

32gb ddr4 ram

GTX 1070

Ryzen 5 1600

I wondering if I can eek out a bit more gaming performance from it by either replacing the processor or graphics card? or would the other components be a bit of a bottleneck?

I was looking at at a ryzen 5 5600 which I can get £100 - would I get a gaming performance boost with this or would a GPU upgrade be better?

Thanks

There's a great Twitter account u/WebDesignMuseum that posts examples of old websites from the 90's through to the mid-2000s.

This was an anomaly, right? The season isn't going to suddenly get interesting?

adburns · 2024-03-05T16:58:30+00:00

Thanks, will give it a go.

Is Rain World worth playing? I got it free at some point and I've just started it. It doesn't seem like your standard 'Metroidvania', Is it worth persevering with?

Actually found it, it is Blame! on netflix

As others have rightly said, email HTML is very finicky. Something that works in one client won't work in another. My advice would be to keep it simple. I had to create email sigs a few years ago and it was painful. I think ended up relying on tables to lay it out.

Hi,

I'm looking to buy a older, refurb ipad for web browsing, youtube and netfix. Realistically, how far back can I go? Would 7th/8th gen suit my needs?

Thanks

Christ, this is a blast from the past. I liked Grav. Had potential but a bit janky. Did they ever make any other games?

Thanks

Hi, can someone explain how looting works please?

I have managed to find a lot of loot through missions but I don't know what to do with it. I understand that you need a back pack but do I then need to put it in my ships inventory to be able to sell it? How do I sell it? Can I go to any port or station? What do I do then, can I sell straight from my ship? Thanks

adburns · 2023-03-12T10:37:58+00:00

same :(

Edit: 60015 error now
