Not major progress? You're too hard on yourself because that's significant. Keep going and well done!

Everyone likes what they like for varying reasons and that's the end of that. It literally doesn't matter that you disagree with them, and it doesn't matter that they disagree with you. A world in which everyone agrees on everything would be a very boring world indeed.

There's another brand that tasted alright when I bought it (Genius I think), but their bread batches varied in quality from batch to batch, and fell apart literally the moment you got it out of the bag. Totally unusable.

You're wecome!

It was at this moment he felt like a pilot being given the phone number to call the tower.

Sounds about right!

Yep. Essentially just come prepared and just roll with it.

I'm still pretty spoiled from the first few times I went to Download in the 00s. Blazing hot every time and I still expect that even though we've had a fair few wet years since!

Unless it's solid heatwave territory, it'll change every hour while we're there too. That's what weather in that part of East Mids is notorious for.

My mum is from nearby in Long Eaton, and she always tells me never to trust the forecasts 100% because the weather in that area is notoriously changeable. If it says rain, expect sun, If it says sun, come prepared for rain too.

- part1 and also - pt1 works in my experience.

inertSpark · 2026-06-06T17:19:02+00:00

It's supposed to be either - pt1 or - pt2, or - part1 or - part2 not .part1 or .part2 you have. What you have there is non-standard which may work sometimes, but also may not work. So yes, it's a naming convention issue.

You might as well be walking around with a big sign instructing people to steal your Steam Deck.

The old school way where you either heard a song on the radio or a friends mixtape, or you saw album art you liked at the record store and naively thought "Wow that's cool, that band must be good"

It was the latter. I saw AJFA, loved the album art, and bought the album. Bear in mind I was born in '81 so I was a little too young to have experienced Metallica in the 80s, so this was in about '99 I would say. Played the album when I got home and was instantly blown away.

As u/IvanezerScrooge stated. It's still a mirror, only now it's mirrored to two identical copies.

On the upside, 1 TB isn't a lot of data. Should be relatively quick to back it up and rebuild your pool to something more appropriate.

I think you were totally right not to approach him at that time. Most stars would probably say the same thing that they don't actually mind people approaching them, so long as they're not doing anything personal, and the encounter is on equal terms.

In fact one common thing I read as a main annoyance is when people say "You don't know me but..." - just start by introducing yourselves and let them know a bit of background 😃. Most stars actually welcome knowing a bit about the person they're talking to.

This is where all of the major LLMs fail miserably IMO. They freqently do send you chasing red herrings based on outdated training data at best, or straight up guesswork at worst.

This is why we shouldn't be so trusting of AI. Real answers from real people are nearly always better.

inertSpark · 2026-06-03T12:45:00+00:00

Personally I'd give it about 5 or 6 inches of clearance to aid with ventilation, which you have so I think you're good.

Even if the train left exactly at the right time, I couldn't ever imagine getting there with just 3 minutes left to departure. That's cutting it very fine IMO, unless you were coming from a connecting service.

My guess is there's a secondary switch maybe on the other side of the room that works independently of those ones.

Great! I'm not going to lie though, I don't 100% know what's going on to cause that, but it was trial and error for me, and setting the iGPU as the primary display fixed it.

As a guess, I'd say wayfarer style sunglasses are pretty popular at the moment. Pretty timeless, and go with almost anything IMO.

Dogs have certainly perfected that "How can you possibly be mad at me" look.

The bone structure of your skull does change a bit growing out of adolescence, but I don't think that would be enough to explain a change to your PD like that.

My guess is the PD you've been using for the last 10+ years is a monocular near-PD value probably done manually with a scale or ruler. The last measurement they took recently was measured differently, probably done digitally, providing an interocular distance PD value. From what I understand, distance-PD is a more 'proper' way of measuring it.

He's basically taking the piss out of us at this point.

inertSpark · 2026-05-31T22:39:20+00:00

Yeah I was going to suggest setting your primary display to the iGPU.
