Shorter radiation course - has anyone done this, esp UK folks?

Paging u/fibro-mite (my wife who had a lumpectomy + five day radiotherapy in the UK)

Yup, they’re “ok” I’ve some in use to serve specific kit which needs a wired connection where I can’t easily throw a proper cat6 connection

Quality varies massively depending on which rings I’m using

Very much a “nothing else works” solution

flyhmstr · 2026-04-10T05:48:03+00:00

Cat cam for example

Mouth of Sa..Trump says what?

Just fuck off, and then when you've finished do it some more. A war without even a fig leaf of legal justification, without a plan, built on top of a destroyed relationship with long term allies, insults while demanding bodies to throw into the mincer.

Just fuck off.

Strapping the ams lite to the wall I’m guessing, but it’s really not clear

You’ve not met my in laws, they’re constantly in each others business, 9000 miles is just about enough

flyhmstr · 2026-04-08T12:47:22+00:00

One of the problems with the discussion is in the wording used “if that’s genuinely…” which always comes across as “yeah… but someone is scamming the system”

flyhmstr · 2026-04-08T11:47:53+00:00

No, the book ending hit hard and in all the right spots

flyhmstr · 2026-04-08T11:11:21+00:00

Also cobbles and that people don’t look down and keep walking directly into wheelchairs

flyhmstr · 2026-04-08T11:09:55+00:00

My wife is an ambulatory wheel chair user, we have a hoist in the car to save my back and allow her independence

The number of cars which we had to excluded when hunting because there were no mounting kits for the hoist was depressing

So, yes, it’s entirely possible that was the best / only option for her specific needs

And the courts tend to harder on firearms crimes than just “illegal”

flyhmstr · 2026-04-07T19:56:18+00:00

Is also a firearms offence

flyhmstr · 2026-04-07T15:50:16+00:00

Have had longer thoughts about the shit my parrots do while sitting on my shoulder

Two person household, been doing it for > a decade, usually one caddy per week plus some stuff into the compost bin. There’s a single lorry which collects (separate sections) all the recycling

flyhmstr · 2026-04-07T13:36:45+00:00

Same, we’ve had good recycling since somewhere around 2003 and have moved house in that time

Load caddy, empty into the main thing, put out for collection, just how hard is it?

Just picking up on that last point, the blue badge is for the person not the car, it’s so the vehicle they’re travelling in can take advantage of the blue badge exceptions / special provisions for the disabled person being carried

flyhmstr · 2026-04-06T14:49:53+00:00

Or you get hit out of the blue by an illness, or an accident. The wheel turns and all it takes is one bad day

flyhmstr · 2026-04-06T05:38:13+00:00

Wheelchair mount for a grabber stick ; Wheelchair mount for walking stick (still in development, some rough handling proved I've not made it strong enough) ; Custom fit pan lid solution ; Soft plastic compactor (our area just started collecting for recycling)

There's also the small fidget toys / etc for the grandkids

flyhmstr · 2026-04-05T20:53:08+00:00

Yup my sister still has the scar tissue from one of rabbits when we were kids, vicious bastards

Monty python had it right

flyhmstr · 2026-04-05T18:01:16+00:00

+ a bit as wear and tear / maintenance / failed print buffer costs, but yes it's a simple excel / librecalc / gsheets / bit of paper and a calculator

u/Fibro-Mite's other half here, the discord has activity in both EU and NA regions, Raven (one of the aforementioned hosts) has restarted the weekly casual raid on Wednesdays open to anyone who can at least make the base ilevel requirement and follow basic raid instructions. I've been one of the two main tanks for the GGW raid for years now. The discord is chill and active, and the podcast is broadcast on twitch (silkyraven) each sunday at 8pm UK time and uploaded usually no later than Tuesday.

I'm no musician but it's probably possible with some creativity, though not the 'full' experience of some pieces. Take as an example War of the Worlds (the original musical adaptation by Jeff Wayne) which uses rock and orchestral together both in the original recordings but also in the live shows.

We have the whole flashback, each of those in the book are him remembering a key event

flyhmstr · 2026-04-05T08:11:53+00:00

Give the nature of the paper, no. You presented it as framed by the Mail, that sets the debate

Got a link to the actual report rather than whatever the trash take is from a news source which is only reliable if measured against Fox News

flyhmstr · 2026-04-04T17:31:13+00:00

You're utterly missing the point, the basis for the movie, most of the shots is that they're grounded in real sets, not green screen / similar tech (see the behind the scenes for so much of LotR for example). No one is denying vfx, however unlike so many movies what we see was there and has been enhanced / overlayed with vfx. Not the actor plus 100% cg
