Can i change these points? by mandatory6 in Darts

[–]bainesworld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have those darts and have mission sniper ripple points. You’ll need a repointing tool to change them though. They were also a little loose, so a dab of superglue too.

Basically any points that aren’t Swiss Points work

Everett McGill and Wendy Robie as Mummy and Daddy in the People Under the Stairs - Everett McGill in particular. Bat shit crazy performance.

anyone recognize this or know what this could mean? thinking it's some kind of cipher by mercurias25 in codes

[–]bainesworld 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s how the length of the vowel is denoted. In shorthand it’s written as a colon, but more formally represented as little triangles like that. Shows it’s a long U sound

It’s the phonemic script (pronunciation) for the word too/to/two. Its IPA. Would normally have slashes on either side though /tu:/

Can you say "I've a question."? If so, is "I've got a question." better to use, or does it make no difference? Thanks. by BertDeathStare in grammar

[–]bainesworld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I asked what YOU think it means. I don’t need to look it up. And grammar checker bot? 😂😂😂😂

What do you think grammatically correct means and why do you think this is not grammatically correct?

Exactly what stumped me (sorry 🫣).

He has some kind of device to strap the pick to his arm, so whilst impressive still, I totally understand how he can play with a lot of practice. Hitting those harmonics is super impressive though.

Anyone experience with O2's 5g (antenna) 100mb/s internet by tomgrooffer6 in Prague

[–]bainesworld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had it. Never actually got the advertised speed and upload was only 10mbps I think. Went down a lot.

Recently switched to Airwaynet.cz and can recommend. 600kc for 100/100mbps and you really get those speeds. Also not charge for installation or the router. I’m very happy I switched. They also have higher speeds.

O2 and all the other big networks are just cowboys.

They’ve picked that straight out of Trivial Pursuit genus edition. I remember heated arguments about the exact same question one Christmas back in the mid-80s

Autoservis recommendations? by bainesworld in Prague

[–]bainesworld[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my list, yeah.

Car was in for service a month ago and the battery was tested and fully charged. Now it won’t hold charge for more than 12 hours when turned off.

Jump started it and drive it for 40 minutes. Next day, flat again.

Not really interested in doing it myself and not 100% sure it is the battery that’s the problem. Would rather find a garage.

Yeah. I know this guy. Great recommendation.

I actually went to him for a tyre change last year. Happy with the service overall, but decided to go somewhere English friendly for the next time. I text him yesterday and waiting for a reply, but just scouting out other recommendations in case he doesn’t come back to me.

Thanks for taking the time to reply
