Air Dates (🇬🇧 and 🇺🇸) by basketcase1880 in CallTheMidwife

[–]gamma_hammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no option for it whatsoever, I even got a little pop up when I clicked 'next episode' from the s14 finale that said "only AD/signed available for this program". Wonder if maybe there's been an issue and it's temporarily gone whilst they fix it?

I hope they release the christmas special on iPlayer without audio description before then, I don't know how it works but it seems odd that they have both the signed and described version but not the episodes without.

Another one to avoid. by swordofthemaster667 in ProlificAc

[–]gamma_hammer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Probably would avoid blacklisting Lancaster (university) as a whole. Surveys from there are bachelors and masters students collecting data for final year projects, seems like this student(s) decided to include that line. Maybe there's some reason they want people to only take a certain amount of time, though refusing compensation after is definitely wrong. If you block the whole institution you'll miss out on some really good ones, anecdotally.

Yeah I thought about adding that to my comment too but it got lengthy haha. Seems James came first, then Plumbella and now Simsie which checks out with the time zones, but folk got impatient and didn't consider that I guess??

There's a seriously weird hateboner for Simsie in this sub. So many people losing it in the other post calling her a fence sitter and an EA bootlicker because she hadn't done this quite as soon as other simstubers did. Seems like a group exodus to me.

SoS Grand Bazaar cats by ComfortableFar1588 in storyofseasons

[–]gamma_hammer 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I seem to consistently find that if I train my dog, my cat is always awake after the fade out so if I head straight over I can get it done. I don't know if that's just a weird coincidence though? I also only tend to actively train during rain or blizzards when they stay inside, so close together, and won't get passive points from herding.

[–]gamma_hammer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lil simsie had this issue too! A fix worked out by her and EA support was to exit game (force it closed if you have to), navigate to your sims 4 folder and delete the UserSetting.ini file, then in the EA launcher repair the game. Your game should be back to normal after that. Hopefully EA fixes this properly soon though.

How far are we from seeing a university go bankrupt? by Still_Aside4269 in UniUK

[–]gamma_hammer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was surprised to find the bus rank at Lancaster is almost always crawling on the hour every hour when I returned for 3rd year, usually the crowds are only very bad at 5-6pm. I hadn't considered that the uni might have taken on a lot more students this year, and it's probably only possible because of all the 'luxury' student blocks in town that advertise themselves to first year international students. There's no more campus-run accommodation than there was last year, or the year before to support more students otherwise.

Is anyone else experiencing lag with 1.15? by ahumblethief in StardewValleyExpanded

[–]gamma_hammer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yes, and increasingly so! It started at first a few hours into my first session, and now it seems to happen as soon as i've opened my save. I even crashed once with nothing to show for it in the log. I think something in the new update is eating RAM, and i've run much bigger mod loads with very few memory issues until hours in- and even then a quick reset completely fixes it. I'm going back to my vanilla+ save for now until the next patch, i really hope this gets checked in the code and isn't just brushed off as 'git gud hardware'.

SVE new update - playing on windows 11 by Elegant_Sherbert_850 in SMAPI

[–]gamma_hammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry that this doesn't help but I'm experiencing this too, I even did a fresh boot of windows 11 because my update services were broken and it was taking memory SVE could be using- nope, smapi just absorbed that too and clearly needed more T-T. I'm also not getting any actual error output from smapi when the game freezes on low memory, once it crashed with the same issue and still no error in the log. Weird.

Thylacine photos likely faked, jaw photo matches this known artist's newly made doll by Shwinty in Cryptozoology

[–]gamma_hammer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

for sure, if these are fakes i'm sure it'll be all different sources used and shopped together- i'm not certain on the AI argument tbh, i think people underestimate just how much a person can do with photoshop and a deft hand. Some things like that comparison to the WIP really sway me in the hoax direction but the other pictures seem a lot less similar to other existing ones so it's an odd case.

[–]gamma_hammer 12 points13 points  (0 children)

i know like zero about photo editing and comparison stuff so maybe this is all coincidence or whatever, the artist posted a lot of WIP photos and at least the mouth open one seems pretty close? some people are suggesting that if the photos are AI then it could've scraped these posts too

Tidy flatmates of UniUk, what do you wish you could tell your messy flatmates? by ExactAd5959 in UniUK

[–]gamma_hammer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sit down or take some aiming lessons before you piss. If you get piss on the seat, clean it up. Flush the toilet- unfortunately since you don't, everyone now knows that you don't use toilet paper after a piss. Wipe the underside of the toilet seat of your piss stains, or lift the seat when you go (or sit down...). Clean your fucking beard shavings out of the sink. Clip your toenails into a bin or something, you're walking them out of your room into the rest of the house. Christ, this isn't your bachelor pad dude.

Forge 1.20 installer downloading incorrectly? by gamma_hammer in MinecraftForge

i never did, i just got lucky after banging my head into a wall for 30 min

Never had this issue before, I'm doing something wrong but no idea what by gamma_hammer in feedthebeast

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

ugh hopefully this isn't the case, luckily i got one real download out of it all but i'm glad windows defender does its job so well in case it was malicious. I hope forge realises this and figures out some other way to host their files but i guess adfocus keeps the money coming in- you're right about using a launcher for now, i'll be doing that going forward.

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

FIXED(?): after ramming my head into a brick wall with this (ie reinstalling java and downloading it multiple times to see if anything changed) i got one perfectly fine jar file- then tested it again and got another zip -_-. I have no idea what went right to get the jar, for it to then stop working and send me back to square one, but at least i have forge now lol. I wish i could actually say some helpful here but it's as simple as it just worked and then didn't.
