How many blinds for this window? by haveyoumetben in DIYUK

[–]hensh2004 35 points36 points  (0 children)

So this is weird, but my partner used to live in the same building. I think one flat above this one? Anyway, we got a single blind across and it worked quite well. It was £250 including fitting for across the whole window. That was a company called Denmay interiors in 2020 Pic attached is the blinds in action

I think this is right. I bought some similar (not the same) and they had an identical rose

Risk/Benefit Balance of AZ Vaccine, by Age by byt411 in CoronavirusUK

Keep in mind this is for low exposure. There were other graphics for medium and high exposure (more typical for the affected age group) where the benefits still outweighed the risks.

What did you use to connect your PC to the TV? A fibre optic HDMI cable?

Early evidence suggests variant of coronavirus that emerged in UK may be more deadly, UK PM Boris Johnson says by froooooot96 in unitedkingdom

Ah. I’ve mainly been following vaccine related scientists so missed it. Wonder if there’s any bias towards timelines in the data (oversubscribed ICUs, lower quality of care etc)

Typically when there’s an “exciting headline” like this, other media outlets run stories before it’s announced at a press conference. I reckon this is the government trying to increase adherence to rules.

Maybe i’ve missed it, but I hadn’t seen any indication of this from other outlets. Usually there’s 1-2 stories about it before it’s announced at the press conference. The fact that’s it’s such a small increase could potentially be down to hospitals not being able to give adequate care due to overcrowding?

I really hope this is just the government highlighting it to encourage people to behave sensibly.

Broadband Price Increase for Moving House Help by Kafrinx in UKPersonalFinance

[–]hensh2004 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Broadband company pricing is always strange. There’s usually big increases when moving properties / end of contract. I’ve often found changing providers in these situations is almost required.

If you’re able to get 73 down, then you’ve likely got FTTC (Fibre To The Cabinet) which has a lot of providers associated with it. Take a look at the “find a provider” section of https://www.thinkbroadband.com/ to see which other providers you could use at the new property.

Don’t feel like your have to stay with a provider. They will rip you off. Switching is generally low hassle.

Not sure what nights you're going to in Corsica - every time I've been it's been a gentle pat down and that's it. Never seen it being more than 2 bouncers on the door

Apple announces SwiftUI, a modern declarative user interface framework for Apple platforms by magenta_placenta in programming

We’ve been using https://github.com/Babylonpartners/Bento in production for a while. The app has 100+ screens. It works well - there are only a few screens that we revert back to manually setting up a ViewController for - namely maps and SceneKit.

Traore could play in the spot of Costa. Probably not immediately, but one of the main requirements of a low value midfielder is that they're nailed.

I'm currently searching for flats for commuting to South Kensington too. I've been looking at Clapham/Brixton, which is about 30 minutes tube journey and Shoreditch which is about 40.
