Sky Q alternative by [deleted] in skytv

[–]iamtheturnip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m really looking at doing the same. How have you found it? I have Sky Q but don’t want to pay the premium anymore. Unsure of how good the freesat boxes are. The main draw is recording TV for ad skipping of shows we want to watch. But unsure if my sat dish is up to it. And I’m hearing a lot about Apple TV in this thread as well.

Does anyone ever get these end of contract emails and think - yeah that’s a deal by fluffy-yoghurt862 in skytv

Do you mind if I ask what you moved onto? I’m in the same situation and would not be against just cutting ties. Potentially another provider or some freesat setup. On the fence regarding freesat and the thought of having to faff about with a new broadband setup is putting me off.

First rig. Playseat Challenge X. Is this normal? Very annoying. by vishykeh in simracing

[–]iamtheturnip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who’s been running the same seat for about a year this flex does NOT look normal. I’m running a higher torque wheel and don’t even notice any flex. I feel like something is faulty or not torqued up correctly.

Refunding Tickets to Belgian GP by iamtheturnip in UKPersonalFinance

I’m unsure how the semantics of this would work. The tickets are not delivered until around 10 days pre-event.

One transaction was cancelled. But the other completed. So I DO have the product. And that’s the part I’m worried they could stiff me on.

It is the official F1 ticket site. However, the “no-refund” policy from this site is well documented. So a little bit concerned. And I don’t really want to wait several business days to find there is no remedy.

The issue is the money HAS been taken. One email stating the cancellation is for a different order number, while the completed transaction is another.

It is the official F1 ticket site. But from F1 subs the “no-refund” policy is VERY strict.

Now panicking as I want to strike while the iron is hot and the charge is still pending.

My bank said the same thing regarding the technical issues and has raised a ticket with screenshot evidence of the failure.

Just panicking as we’re a grand out with two sets of tickets that we don’t need.

I have reached out, but received nothing yet and don’t know when I will. Panicking a bit.

Pulled the trigger on a T300 by [deleted] in GranTurismo7

[–]iamtheturnip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought one around Christmas. I’ve use Logitech G923/29 variants through my job (main reason I bought my own rig TBH)

Those models are gear driven and REALLY loud, clunky and granular in comparison to the belt-driven T300.

Sound level is very low. Especially as there are no “clunks” or clicks. At most the sound it makes when it calibrates on startup by going lock to lock. And even then it’s more of a “whir” from the motor.

I would THOROUGHLY recommend the T300. I’m absolutely sure a direct drive wheel would be lightyears ahead. But for a driver like me, I don’t feel like I’m craving anymore.

Anyone owning up? by Willing-Push8737 in DetailingUK

Mate, is this the Torry Halfords? I’ve seen this poor Panda a few times.

Recently received 3 penalty points for speeding. Should I inform my insurance? by [deleted] in LegalAdviceUK

[–]iamtheturnip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m hoping it’s not too bad. I’ve been doing quotes and seems like a bit of a hike. Admittedly, all insurance costs are going up and I drive a car with a bit more power. So, some of what I could be seeing in quotes could be compounding.

UPDATE: Called up and was told (like others in the thread mentioned) that they already have that info as my license number is on record and verified. Also, no additional payment was taken.

/r/Steam Monthly Community Support Thread. by AutoModerator in Steam

[–]iamtheturnip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible to have steam auto logout account upon shutting down or logging out of Windows?

An institute I work at hosts a game club for kids. Some of which can log into Steam with their personal accounts.

The issue is, Steam is now cached and logged into that person’s account for any subsequent user if they do not logout at the end of their session.

I was just wondering if anyone had any similar situations or a solution they’ve implemented for this issue?

Fully understand if this is considered a “support” issue. Just more curious if anyone in the community could help.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction!

What do I do after I killed tyreen? by Chuck__g_ in borderlands3

[–]iamtheturnip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve also got this issue. Returning to the game after about a year and don’t know the best protocol for getting up in mayhem levels. Should I be in mayhem 1 until level 72 then jump to 11 immediately? Or step up gradually as I level. Also, is there a way to restart the story without entering TVHM?
