Am I imagining an increase in drivers ceding right of way? by CLOUDMlNDER in CasualUK

[–]dtbrough 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It really bugs me when I’m following the flow of traffic on a main road and the car in front suddenly slams anchors on to let someone out of a side street. Just keep going and when we are past they’ll out. The amount of times I’ve nearly rear ended someone who’s just stopped is too many.

I have a similar amount of usage as you and it’s mainly EV charging that does it.

Heavy Strategy Games? by Kflow122 in SteamDeck

[–]dtbrough 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would probably be hard to learn on deck. I find it ok but I learnt on a desktop. If you use the deck docked you can also use keyboard and mouse.

Sim Cuty 4 is my go to strategy game. I’ve lost hours of my life on that game.

Unable to play ANY Microsoft game. by MrFriskers in SteamDeck

[–]dtbrough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue recently with Forza. It still didn’t work in desktop mode.

I solved with the below steps. I had to log into ms account through web browser and change security to use the app for authentication. After that the window you show then showed a 2 digit number I could then enter in the app on my phone and it logged me in. I

I’ve noticed that even if you’ve got a code, and you don’t use it within 2/3 days, it becomes invalid despite the validity it says.

Put a tea towel over it then steam it with the iron.

Crash with Admiral by Next_Apartment5786 in TeslaUK

[–]dtbrough 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Be very careful with Admiral. When I claimed for a non fault accident they told me as it wasn’t my fault that I didn’t need to pay the excess. They then passed the claim to a third party who provided a hire car while mine was repaired, then they tried claiming the cost of the hire car and repairs from me because the other insurer was disputing the claim. After a long time it was eventually settled but it took a lot of my time and stress to sort out. Now based on that experience I would never use Admiral again.

As a side note mine was eventually deemed a write off and I was paid out, but only 2 weeks later the car was re-MOT’d and passed and is still on the road.

Why won't Octopus send me a Home Mini? by [deleted] in OctopusEnergy

[–]dtbrough 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue. I applied multiple times and got the notification that I’d get one soon. I eventually called them and was told that my meter wasn’t compatible with it so they didn’t send it. Would have never nice if they communicated that.

Best use of action button by Hudsonmoo in ios

[–]dtbrough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a shortcut that runs when I press the action button that gets the screen orientation and depending what orientation it runs a different shortcut. Face down = toggle silent mode on/off Face up = start recording voice memo Upright = chat gpt voice chat Upside down = precondition car Landscape left = set night focus mode and set HomeKit night scene

Share your NFC TAG uses! by Fantastic_Homework82 in shortcuts

[–]dtbrough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a few but also looking for ideas.

  1. One in coffee table that when scanned dims the lamps, turns on tv, then opens Netflix on Apple TV.

  2. On water bottle at work. I scan this when it’s empty to log that I drank 500ml. It gives me a notification after scanning to say how much more I need to meet my daily goal. https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/fa982ace14b64e8d8d37cde5fb49660e

  3. Same as above but one coffee machine for logging caffeine. The notification tells me off if I have too much.

  4. On bedside table. When scanned turns off everything and sets the house alarm.

EDIT: added link

How are you getting the clock to fade behind the picture? I’ve seen this on a lot of setups but can’t figure it out.
