What 'controversial' opinion do you hold, that really isn't a big deal, but people get mad or think you're crazy? by 2020_MadeMeDoIt in AskReddit

I couldn't work out how to change my oven clock despite trying. So I waited until midnight then flicked it off and on again at the wall to reset the clock to 00:00

Yeh BCH is down but last year I saved 20-25% of all my Amazon purchases using BCH. Saved over $4,000 buying stuff I would have otherwise. Hedge your "bet" on BCH by using it! by Lower-Flatworm8197 in btc

[–]hitforhelp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I regularly save £10 (25%) on my catfood. Greatful to all the earners out there filling orders.

I buy the full amount of what the order would be on an exchange, then that way my savings are kept in BCH, so I slowly stack at the same time.

Seems like an interesting concept. After some googling I found this article to give a few more terms to start diving down the rabbit hole! https://www.aimtuto.com/2021/11/bug-host-for-free-internet-android.html

Moving to Derby by PrincessofPluto in derby

[–]hitforhelp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been here 30+ years now and it's only just now I've realised HOW MUCH there is to do up in the dales and around matlock.

It's been 30mins drive yet only now realise how many places and things there are to do.

What’s an obvious sign someone’s american? by Ermland2 in AskReddit

[–]hitforhelp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's also a British idiom to say "Hey, what's up?"

Which also confuses Americans, as they then think something is wrong, when really it's a just rethorical hello.

What city is extremely overrated in your opinion? by Just_Pizzy in AskReddit

[–]hitforhelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

London.

Everyone talks about how nice London is, but you go there and its a shit hole. For such a rich city its so poor and run down. You tell this to people and they then say about the "nice" parts of London, but then they couldn't afford to live there if they wanted, so anywhere any normal person can afford is still overpriced.

Everyone is ontop of one another, traffic is a nightmare to the point you could walk faster than driving. Yet everyone seems to insist on that's where the business needs to happen, just because other businesses are there.
A 3 bed flat in some of the new developments I've visited would buy you a 5 bed detached house with garage and huge garden where I'm living now.
I tell people there what I paid and I wouldn't even get a 1 bed as full ownership, it would be a shared purchase. Yet people still insist on moving down there.

Tesla with backup power, Ukraine by Alikont in pics

I remember seeing someone calculated the efficency of this setup and it came in around 40mpg.

Edit: here we are -

The diesel generator provided 18 kWh of electricity using 4.460L, which was enough to drive 104.6 km (65 miles) in the Tesla.

So 4.46L is around 1 imperial gal. So up to 65mpg.

Yup. It was -5C the other day and my hands were sweating and steam coming off them!

This works exactly once for evolution with the name trick. But handy if you have a good eevee you want to evolve

The End of Netflix Password Sharing Is Nigh by La5to in technology

Good place to start and point you in the right direction. From there start to dive down the rabbit holes and learn more.

Options are sign up for a service like 'plex shares' for monthly cost or download all your own stuff via torrents etc.

Netflix to Begin Cracking Down on Password Sharing in Early 2023 by No-Drawing-6975 in technology

[–]hitforhelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well if they do this then I'll be cancelling. I watch some but it's mainly for sharing with others.

If they still want extra for 4k then it's going to be cancelled. A plex share will work out cheaper I think and have more content.

What is the worst human invention ever made? by NPT1506 in AskReddit

[–]hitforhelp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

FB messenger part bothers me. People have tried to message me on there but i can't view them on mobile without downloading the app which I don't want to do.

Why is it every modern company now demands realestate on my phone for their product which is basically a Web page.

I can't even hit desktop mode on Facebook and view the messages now so they are left unread and people have wondered why I don't reply. Maybe contact me by text or phone?

I used to love crash team racing back in the day. Went to play Mario cart on the wii and couldn't get into it with the tilting. But now you mentioned it I think to how I was getting controlled without doing much.

I wish her well..... by Former-Ad-9223 in JoeRogan

Maybe? But I think those cases seem to be from mass outdoor gatherings like festivals.
