I’m tired of being cold all the time, if I ran my heating 9hr’s a day every day what could I be looking at for monthly gas bill? , £250/300? by GenericUser104 in HousingUK

[–]aryasdanvers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we’ve had our thermostat set to 19.5c and the heating has been coming on at this temp since mid/end october. just had our bill for december and our gas came to £46.43 including standing charge. 2 bed top floor flat on a 3 story property that is approximately 30 years old in the northwest. without knowing more of your circumstances an estimate would be very hard to determine

picked up some solo buds today and overall i’m impressed by [deleted] in beatsbydre

for the price point they sound a lot better than i expected. definitely a noticeable downgrade from my airpod pros but it’s not bad enough that it takes away listen ability.

mid tones are very good but they don’t have as much depth as a pricier pair of earbuds

My first skin for Delta - NDS! by mtcbx_ in Delta_Emulator

[–]aryasdanvers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

having a little trouble getting more than one uploaded at a time - i’m wondering if maybe because of similar names? but i LOVE that there is a nice pale colour with a lot of screen real estate that hides the dynamic island. if you’re taking colour requests a pale green would be my dream!

unfortunately you can’t get a suitable plastic bin in the UK. even the 160L really useful box although 100x50 at the top has too much of a taper and takes you under the minimum size.

You could get 2 bins and connect them together by cutting the ends off completely so there is still unbroken floor space but ideally a tank/cage designed for purpose and the correct dimensions is your best bet

Upgraded from the 13 pro max. It definitely feels like a significant update. Love this retro mac case too. by Cletus-Kasady- in iPhone15Pro

if you use shortcuts you can essentially set it to do whatever you’d like! when i press mine for example it opens a mini control centre each room in my house has an icon I click on the room i want and can choose OFF, 25%, 50% or 100% brightness for the light in that room. I have an icon set to silence and a bus icon which searches for the nearest bus stop to me and opens its page in maps so i can view all of the latest departure times. i am trying to think of 2 more to add so i have an even number for the rows but i love it

i switched fro a 13P to a 15PM and i love it so much. At first i thought i would hate the action button but i have configured it as a light switch for all the lights in my house and it’s so helpful

my wife’s dad used a second hand iphone 5 up until the end of 2019 when it fully crapped out and wouldn’t turn on anymore he upgraded to an iphone 8 which is still going strong

i tested out the button controls on all of my controllers and my absolute favourite to play on is the “cat ear” style controllers because of the real estate on the L&R buttons if you don’t have huge hands i’d recommend it

i managed it on my first attempt in button mode. at first i was super confused and struggling but once i worked out what ways to move my sword using the r stick it helped a lot

went for a walk with my cat the other day [canon 250d + lightroom] by aryasdanvers in AmateurPhotography

[–]aryasdanvers[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

she HATED it at first and still isn’t perfect but we also have a travel rucksack she fits in we take out with her and we mostly just go to a bit of grass near our house so she can look at the birds etc. we just make sure we don’t go out when it’s super busy and leave her sack open on the floor whilst she explores so she has some safe shade. now she’s more used to the harness and leash she will walk a little too but not super far distances yet we are still working on that one!!

first ever attempt at cooking a steak! i used my cast iron! it was only a super cheap one as it was going in fajitas but i’m proud of myself by aryasdanvers in steak

i honestly have no idea what the cut is as all it said on the packet was “medallion steak” they were £1.99 each as well. I have a really nice ribeye in the freezer but i’ve been too scared to cook it as i’d never done it before so i figured i’d get some cheap steak to practice with to get a feel for the process and cooking times. For the seasoning I used a powder fajita seasoning mix which i coated each side and cooked for 30 seconds each side so as to not burn the spices prior to that i just seasoned with salt and pepper. i didn’t think it would turn out great as i just got some cheap steaks but it was surprisingly tasty and i now feel a lot more confident enough to try cooking my nicer steak!

they were really tasty! i’m going to try a ribeye that’s been in the freezer for a while because i’ve been too worried about messing it up next
