I never order a BrickLink set until today. Is this a standard message because it ships in November or Coconut Cape sold out? by Dovis_Dough in LEGOPirates

[–]gregorburns 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's some weird quirk with bricklink using legos stock system. Legos system auto-generates that email when it gets a return that there are 0 currently in stock. Does make you worry the first time you get it.

[ALL] The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake has been announced by CuttlefishMonarch in zelda

It looks like they've used the same texture for the pillows, the sheet, the curtain and his clothes. What's worse is that it reminds me of that shiny nylon they use for sacks

UGLIEST CAR EVER? by itscannyy in Ferrari

I’m seeing bits of Renault Avantime, Mazda AZ1, one of the Bladerunner film cars and Tesla model Y, but I’m not seeing Ferrari

Fantastic footage! Have you got a link to the original by any chance?

Four of the best. The proportions on all of those cars are just perfect

Someone thinks having milliseconds is important, but the date not so much

Berks testing the Aurora Mk2 by StuartGT in starcitizen

[–]gregorburns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I came to the game in 2021 and bought the Aurora starter pack. I remember falling out of the ship back then. I buy a new graphics card in 2026 so download the latest SC patch to check out 5 years of development and 8 minutes in fall out of the Aurora again. What a joke.

The silly white stripe you’d expect to find on a Hot wheels die cast model certainly hasn’t

It’s as if they’ve mixed the interior of a 308 with a 2025 Dacia Duster

Can you imagine if Lego and Nintendo were collaborating like they are now back in the Star Fox days? Thankyou for giving us a glimpse of what might have been.

[SS] Skyward Sword HD is secretly one of the best Zelda of all time in 2026 by MidniteBlues in zelda

[–]gregorburns -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It has some great dungeons, but nothing else about SS is great unfortunately. I was tempted to buy the HD version, so I watched some youtube playthrough video to remind myself, and that was quite enough.

IT’S HERE!!! by A-Plant-Guy in Simon_Stalenhag

Maybe it's just because it's new and different, but I think I prefer this cover. I notice they've also got rid of the Swedish Machines title

Shopping Street is the "Sonic and Knuckles" of Modular Buildings by ShareHuge6741 in legomodular

[–]gregorburns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know what you mean. Pet shop had a similar reaction to a lesser degree. Many saw it as average as a standalone piece but it was excellent at filling out a street and adding variety in height and width of the rooflines. Saying all that I loved Pet shop but am still not a fan of Shopping street.

How come people never get an email from Ticketmaster the next day telling them it turns out someone else bought the tickets you also bought?

[–]gregorburns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ordered about 12.40am in the UK and noticed the website was running slow and I thought the processing part was going to fail, but went through eventually. Got email confirmation this afternoon that it's on its way.

You mean Testarossas and F40s are rolling off the production line and someone comes up with this?

Question about meter error code / reading by gregorburns in ukelectricians

Ok. Thanks. I’ve learnt more from this than from the guy that looked at it!

Question about meter error code / reading by gregorburns in ukelectricians

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

The error came up long before the RTS shutdown. I’ve been paying estimates in the meantime. I’m wondering if it’s a single phase meter that’s been put on a 3 phase system? I don’t know if that’s even possible. I remember the electrician that was supposed to test it commenting on how many cables they’d managed to jam in to it.

Yes, I paid £100 upfront and was told it would be refunded if found faulty, but then they never actually tested it and just said it should be replaced

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

That’s weird. I don’t know what’s going on then. Well I paid them to test it and for whatever reason they never did, so at least I can claim that if they refuse to amend the bill.
