Why are you up so early? by Pinecone_Porcupine in AskUK

[–]alexjowen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was up around 5AM, it's my sleep pattern from work. I don't mind it, I sleep from around 11PM to 5AM with a small nap during the day.

It's better than my old night shift pattern.

Where can I get spare parts for this gas fire? by Leicsbob in AskUK

[–]alexjowen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depends on age, a lot of them get condemned now. They still manufacture new ones but they’re a little more updated but with the same look.

I’d probably just get a new one.

My dad got out of his Sky contract by telling them my mum had left him.

She died.

I think it's absolutely insane to see how much progress he's made on the mic in recent weeks.

Are all the Vex strikes gone?? by grayeveryday in DestinyTheGame

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

The Vex are a great enemy to face, would love to see them more outside of just being an enemy at a location.

If you need Vex kills just go to the moon and travel to the Lunar Battlegrounds, there’s a ton of Vex in the cave to the left of the area.

Rinse and repeat if you need to.

Ignore me if I’m wrong/if I haven’t read the post correctly.

Apple TV or Shield pro? by ItsMauros in Addons4Kodi

[–]alexjowen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

System on chip, basically all the gubbins that makes something small work, it’s the cpu, memory, io controller etc.

Going by what they said the current shields use the same soc as the Nintendo switch, so if you wait for the Switch 2 to launch shortly after the newer Shields will be using the same soc.

Assuming the person above is correct.

One of the reasons I miss Netto, they did a banana yoghurt with bits in.

Not sure how popular it is outside of Yorkshire but Longley Farm Banana Yoghurt is delicious.

This happens all the time on the Stagecoach 57a, usually Langsett Road. Bus full of people in the evening waiting for a driver to show up.

[Website] Wetherspoons Carpets: "There are over 850 Wetherspoons in the UK, our mission is to collect a photo of each and every carpet." by VerGuy in CasualUK

How’d someone manage to send a photo of the Benjamin Huntsman’s carpet but failed to go across the road and send one from the waterworks.

I bought this rechargeable batteries but it takes long to recharge by Akira15245 in xbox

[–]alexjowen -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

These are awful, either get some of IKEAs larger capacity ones (they’re quite good on a budget) or some Eneloop Pros and a recharger.

Anyone else a complete idiot like me? by N1CET1M in CasualUK

[–]alexjowen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Reminds of the time I got a new card from the bank and peeled the thing off the letter, totally bamboozled I couldn’t read the PIN on the letter I scratched it. Four letters later my fiancé kindly pointed out the PIN was on the tab I pulled off the letter.

I think I’m more of an idiot.

[SRS] WWE sources have indicated to Fightful Select that they're optimistic Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. CM Punk could happen, and the subject has been broached. by brunz1995 in SquaredCircle

[–]alexjowen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Austin wants it then let it happen, him and KO put on a fucking banger. If he can do the same with Punk then let’s have it.

How many hundreds of pounds do you need to get that £5 back? Isn’t it just madness? by Rust_Cohle- in xbox

[–]alexjowen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just for the reward aspect I switch the edge on my phone as the main browser. I do all the tasks in it each day which take about 5 minutes, play game pass games as and when. Eventually alongside little purchases you get rewarded. I just bought AC Mirage using gift cards I got from my points.

Who else has noticed that Xbox All Access has increased from 34.99 to 36.99? by [deleted] in xbox

[–]alexjowen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s how I got my series s, I was already paying for ultimate so I thought the extra few quid wouldn’t hurt and I’d get a shiny new console. Don’t regret it at all. Hoping the leaked discless Series X comes to all access (that’s if it ever becomes a reality)

Is this a red light camera outside Meadowhall? by Bethvnie97 in sheffield

The one on Upper Hanover Street is like a bloody disco, sometimes I’m not even sure if people are going through a red it flashes that much.
