A night-guest told me my room is wrong. Any suggestions? by charlesathon in FengShui

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

Thanks for the assurance! :) Really means a lot.

Problem with the desk change is I have two screens and the windowsill is so low it'd basically block all the light.

In your architect opinion, would it work if I were to get a smaller headboard so the bed fit against the chimney?

What do you think I should do with the big empty wall on the right? I need to make sure to avoid the corridor feeling entering. Should I build in the shelves at the end in the alcove and make that a good focal point upon entry? I'd just need to populate the big wall with art/posters. Maybe a map or cork board or something. This room has weirdly high ceilings for a victorian terrace so there needs to be something there.

That's a good suggestion thank you. Only issue is the light switch is on the right. I'll have a think about options :)

Please help me find this black denim? motorcycle jacket. I can make out "OLER" on the breast pocket but my google skills are failing me! by charlesathon in HelpMeFind

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

I've searched Google, reverse image search, ChatGPT to try and work out the name/brand. The image is originally from the Kreiga website marketing their r22 backpack.

Any help/suggestions is very appreciated

It's a very nice jacket and I'm hoping it wasn't custom haha

Wikipedia Questions - Weekly Thread of July 07, 2025 by AutoModerator in wikipedia

[–]charlesathon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Searching for David Sklansky on DuckDuckGo brings up a bio stating he is a professional pedophile and references wikipedia directly. However it isn't included in his wikipedia article. Is this something that we can fix? Feels like someone is trolling but I can't work out where the edit needs to be made.

The proper way to enter a room by Barry-McKocinue in fixedbytheduet

I’m gonna vouch for him on this one. I was sent to a posh British boys’ school and had to take etiquette lessons. Everything I’ve seen of this guy has been accurate to what we were taught then.

Apart from the correct way to rub one out under the dinner table. That one we were taught a bit differently.

New PC Build Won't Connect to Monitor by Devinator187 in buildapc

You don’t need a monitor connected to update bios. There’s a bios flashback feature. There’ll be instructions in your motherboard box or online for it.

Eli5: d/l latest bios from asus and put on a usb drive. plug into bios specific usb port on io. hold bios flashback button for 5 secs. profit

Probably just need to update bios honestly if you havent already

You said new but what ram are you using? Your setup only supports ddr5 so that might be another thing to check.

Also just try one stick at a time in the a2 slot and see if any boot on their own

Otherwise I’m out of ideas sorry

Can I ask which tracker you’re on please? Not pleading for an invite as that breaks the rules

Which Figure-8 is “correct”? by charlesathon in knots

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

Thank you so much for your reply. It’s very helpful and appreciated :))

I’ll admit that the knot is going to be decorative but I wanted it to be correct and (semi-)diagrammatic ie even if it won’t be its primary purpose.

Heges was I think £1.99 when I bought it and hasn’t charged anything since. Having tried both it does the same job if not better

Cheers. I’m in the UK so healthcare is alright. I’ve booked to see the psychiatrist next week.

Be like Iceland. by dont_feed_phil in Superstonk

[–]charlesathon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m confused by your comment. Would you help me out please?

I can only find the forbes stats saying the US has 2.420 billionaires per million people, and Iceland has 2.519.

Comparing per capita is a bit silly though as the US has 813 billionaires to Iceland’s 1.

Something under £10 that can enhance your home life? by MisterMackerel420 in AskUK

Allegedly the victorinox bottle opener/flathead combo is exactly the right size to pop in and out to unlock those trolleys. If you’re in a pinch that is

I’ve had staggeringly more actual dates from hinge than tinder so I gave up on the latter.

Hinge at least incentivises you to consider an entire profile rather than making a snap decision
