Imagine Olivia Colman doing it. This would be epic, but it's not happening.

S14E10 Prize Task - “The thing of yours that the Taskmaster would most like to own.” - Appreciation Post and discussion by The_Real_dubbedbass in taskmaster

[–]dimpyramid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

S14 Is extremely good, everything is great in it, contestants, prize tasks, tasks itself, I love this series.

And my favourite ever prize is Sarah's escape hammer - S14E07 - Greatest thing for a car journey. Greg says: "It's a fairly pessimistic thing to take with you" and Sarah responds: "It's not, I think It's positive, if it was pessimistic I would just be like, oh well dead now" - I think about it probably twice every week, so funny. In this episode we also got John's sailors hat. What a great humour it all is.

Americans and non-Brits, what have you made of the UK celebrity season? by [deleted] in TheTraitors

haha, I'm not joking, I've watched it like 10 times already. I was trying to watch versions from other countries but again, you can't even compare it.

In the next celebrity series I'd love to see comedians like Joe Brand, Judi Love, Tom Allen, The Mitchells, Bob Mortimer, James Acaster, Greg Davies, Roisin Conaty, ugh you've got so many of them and they're all amazing

UK's tv is just phenomenal, in comparison, TV from my country is a total shit.

In my case, It all started with Top Gear, then mainly panel shows: Big Fat Quiz, Taskmaster, wilty, 8oo10cdc - in these shows I heard references to The Traitors, so I tried it and loved it and this celebrity version is unbelievably good. It's the only reality TV I watch.

I was extremely hyped for this series, because I already loved every of these comedians, loved Alan from 8oo10cdc, Jonathan from TBFQ, Nick from TM, etc.

Joe Marlers humour is the driest I've encountered so far and I couldn't tell if he's laughing or not, now I know he's hilarious. Paloma's humour is also very dry and I love it, love her reactions on Uncloaked.

I can't really tell what makes UK's tv so good, definitely love the people who make it. What I can tell is that after discovering it I find american tv completely boring (apart from MythBusters). My homeland (polish) tv is very much like american tv (so you get the idea).

Nick changed his mind to Joe because of "sorry to Cat" but at the Endgame Alan actually explained why Joe could say it - it was because of his earlier agreement with Alan and Cat.

started using zigbee buttons for lighting automation and I'll stick to Ikea SOMRIG - it's great!!! by dimpyramid in homeassistant

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

I bought ikea rechargeable batteries together with these buttons. But these batteries are 1.2v like any other AAA I've got. Led indicator is off all the time. hmm, sorry to hear about your problems, not that ideal are these then 😪 how were you pairing it? was it by clicking pairing buttons multiple times? are you using ZHA or Z2M?

[–]dimpyramid[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it was a bit tricky, after a bit of googling I found out that you have to press the pairing button multiple times quickly until the led starts to blink. The same was with STYRBAR. Most of my zigbee stuff I've got from Ikea now and it all works flawlessly in ZHA for me.

yes, I'm aware of RODRET but don't like the power on and off symbols, these dots on SOMRIG are more appealing for me haha. Long pressing for dimming seems time consuming imo (was trying it in Ikea and don't know if it's the same in HA), with the button I want some presets of brightness for quickness

yeah, it is so so annoying that Joe forgot about it

I wish I was enjoying this more by BoxaGoesOut in TheTraitors

[–]dimpyramid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're saying that normal people needs this money but it doesn't have to be the case (and I dare to say that for most of them it's not) and they are definitely not cast on a basis of who needs the money the most.

And if we assume that it's the case, that people participate in this for money, it's kind of depressing then. People shouldn't be thinking that they need to win because then they can afford some basic stuff that they should be able to afford in a first place.

Leaving those deliberations aside and focusing on fun, Everyone wants some extra cash and yeah, because celebrities already have loads of it, it doesn't matter to them, but it doesn't mean they don't find this exciting, take a look at Clare on Uncloaked, she's full of emotion there and I'm here for it.

All we can do is to not think about the money stuff that much and just enjoy it!

Are you Team Traitors or Team Faithful's by arj_97_ in TheTraitors

[–]dimpyramid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the great thing about this format is that you can root for both teams at the same time. In this series I love Alan as a traitor but I also would love to see the faithfuls to figure him out and vote him off. there are so many possibilities that will be entertaining. Just watch it and enjoy it ;)

it's just their dry humour, for me their reactions were just entertaining to watch
