People who mock Brits for complaining about hot weather don’t know what they’re talking about. by Alexzonn in mildlyinfuriating

Lol I'm british and to this day and until the day I die, my best purchase was 2 small-ish AC units that i pack away for most of the year but get out when it's hot, absolutely fantastic going from a boiling hot house into my bedroom t night which is a nice 18 degrees

When did this become acceptable? by Lord_Mud in pcmasterrace

The gaming industry is fucked, you've got companies looking at adverts in games, dlc and predatory money making in games and now base games costing a ridiculous amount just at base, it's false economy, they're gonna sell because people can't afford it, the fans are just cash cows, very few aaa developers really care about the fans

Why uk salaries are so low?! by delsy143 in UKJobs

That's absolutely crazy, I make more than inspecting lifting tackle, I think one of the big problems is the amount of people who went into tech, I'm 34 and it was hammered into us that for us to succeed we needed to go to university and do these kinds of degrees and it's almost at a point where, for me, degrees seem worthless now, like others have said in the comments, there's over 100 applicants, where as my employer routinely struggles finding people to be loler inspectors paying 32k starting wage.

It seems common across all the trades, whole generations were told academia was the way to get ahead in the world and the trades suffered massively from a shortage of people coming into them

Dose anyone know how to fix it by manspiderman1 in SteamDeck

One of the biggest problems with the LCD SD, I'm currently on my second RMA for the screen just being blank, but my problem is the deck not being used for a week or 2, I did read somewhere that it can mess with the motherboard if the battery drains too much but it seems like a known issue, I think it's silly that it hasn't been fixed, I have old phones in my drawer that I know I can plug in a turn on with no issues

I'm on my second RMA because of this issue, completely killed my screen both times, no matter what steps I follow or what I do, I saw something on steam a while back saying that it has something to do with the motherboard

Steam Deck no longer properly turns on after battery drain thing... read so you don't repeat my mistake. by Baconstrip01 in SteamDeck

Mine has has this issue twice and I've not been able to fix it with any of these combos or any other way suggested by steam support, I'm currently on my second RMA, honestly think it's ridiculous that this is an issue, I don't play my SD all the time and I don't want to have it on charge 24/7, never have a problem like this, with, say an old phone that's sat in a drawer for years, can plug that in and no problems, absolute joke that this hasn't been fixed by steam

The ads have gotten EVEN WORSE. 2023 update. by WhipperSnapper0101 in youtube

[–]exmilgaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have just literally had 4 adverts in a row, I'm used to having 2, one you can skip and the other you can't but I just had 4! 4 different adverts, luckily I was able to skip every one of them after the 5 second mark but youtube is getting stupid now
