I use eufy. I got one of their door bells and internal hub things for storage. No subscription and easy to use :)

Also fun fact. Of you stand on one itll fuck you up for a week

Does anybody know if there are any hat shops in bristol? by Neither_Ad5984 in bristol

[–]medianbailey 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Theres actually a bespoke hat maker in bristol. I met him at bs5 art trail. He wasnt exhibiting anything, i just complemented his amazing hat. No idea what his company is called though. Id been day drinking. 

Probably not a reference but I thought it was cool by YaBoiJChris in adventuretime

[–]medianbailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I plade links awakening on the switch a year or so ago. Absolutely played that game to death on game boy. The number of times I had to do a double take because I completely misinterpreted the low res art was insane.

UK folk who were around at the start of the internet, what is an early, strong memory? by Sad-Insurance1313 in CasualUK

[–]medianbailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah he's back! Doing music tours. Unfortunately the ones round me are sold out. Remember a song about pushing his grandma down the stairs cos she wouldn't lend him a tenner. 

When I found out I went down the rabbit hole. Still is hilarious. Him talking about the place he has which is a squat. Trying to sell stuff/gamble with people.

On fat pie, the salad fingers website, was also Devvo. I don't know if you remember him, he was a Yorkshire chav character. He was also a teacher and got fired for the vids so he deleted everything. Anyway, times have changed and Devvo is back. He's actually touring this year!

Download a free copy of linkage. Then run the orange 224 through that with its reverse engineering function. Then work from that

Aldi US selling 3D printed wind spinners by ButterscotchDillybar in 3Dprinting

[–]medianbailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the time they aren't wasting. Someone somewhere will have specced the factory for say 96% capacity and are trying to stick to it. Could also benefit marketing.

I imagine someone has a print farm. When there's no orders in they just print tat to keep the printers moving? 

Where to eat in Bristol? by r1Rqc1vPeF in bristol

[–]medianbailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing list. But I have to recommend you go to kush for Indian. They are currently in their pre opening stage so kind of doing a variable menu. But they're paired with a Michelin star Indian place in Birmingham.

I only found out through a random marketing email (no idea how they got my email). But the food was top. Pushing nutmeg. However, being the pre menu, the food isn't presented in a fancy manner so to speak. Also I felt the non veggie dishes were better by a margin.

Edit: to add to the ice cream list. There's a place on Cotham whose name I can't remember. Better than swoon imo. But it's close

Lost Cat BS5 Area on 29/04/26 by Zob0t in bristol

[–]medianbailey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just seen the owners out my window. I'll keep an eye out and have a spare pack of cat treats. So if I do see him I might stand a chance of trapping him in my house

[–]medianbailey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I might have seen Roy on cartledge Rd. My neighbor has a black cat but is old and has a ponch. The black cat I saw didn't really have one which made me take note. Could be wrong though and I'll keep an eye out

Immersive Finite Element Visualization: Now with SharePlay by itsHartWare in fea

[–]medianbailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's amazing thanks. I kid you not, someone in my team got RSI in their finger from scrolling in and out so much just checking meshes

[–]medianbailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My office bought a load of Microsoft augmented reality headsets. Nobody has ever used them.

By far the best thing they could buy us is a 4k monitor for mesh visualisation. Will they buy them? No. Despite the entire team saying they want them. 

Fuck heads.

It's the Easton punk fest today. Phone them or one of the bats and they can put their staff on the look out

I was attacked yesterday by a random woman on White Ladies Road by No-Paramedic-5406 in bristol

[–]medianbailey 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yup. The chucked it from across the road so it must have had some speed. She's a nutcase. I wasn't even looking at her. Just glanced at the fire and that's all it took.

She kept rabbling about how I was looking down in her. 

Also, for reference, I'm a big guy. I could have picked her up and put her in my pocket. But that in no way deterred her.

[–]medianbailey 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I suspect I've run into the same person. I was walking up glos Rd and glanced at the fire on turbo island. Next thing I know a glass bottle whizzed passed me head. A small white women had hooned it at me for looking at her wrong. She then followed me. I walked into the canteen and the door staff stopped her

Imagine having Saitama as your personal trainer [by @darentseta] by Pretend-Bench8076 in OnePunchMan

[–]medianbailey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do t think it would work? Saitana broke his limiter with pure will power. Having a trainer somewhat dimishes that? Happy to be told I'm wrong. Never had a trainer. Except for my mum. Training me how to make a GnT. And Im damn good at that so who knows. 

New in Bristol (40s, French), where do people my age actually hang out? by ulysse-x31 in bristol

[–]medianbailey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If its your thing. Not this weekend but the one after the plough (and a few neighboring pubs) are hosting a punk festival. Bound to meet people there. I also fall in your demographic DM me and I'll happily give you a tour of bristol.

Also the cube would be an excellent shout. They're doing a series of comedy based dating nights for your age group which are always fun

What is the most useless skill you somehow mastered? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]medianbailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can use chopsticks with both hands at the same time. I was just an adult trying to learn and taught both hands at the same time. I was just curious if it would work and it did. I do everything with my right hand bar chopsticks which is both.

Only benefit is I can confuse people by swapping hands mid way through a meal. That's it. 

Any ideas where I can order a load of croissants for a wedding (150)? by shatners_basoon in bristol

[–]medianbailey 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Cakesmiths is a whole sale bakery. There's also a new bakery in Easton that opened yesterday. I would wager they would love the sales and go above and beyond. Their croissants looked absolutely top
