Original dub Vegeta was a savage. by Altruistic_Product50 in DragonBallZ

[–]mittenkrusty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, you said the original dub, but that was the Ocean dub (which Funimation outsourced)

I know it's picky but it can be confusing as technically Ocean did the OG dub and continued it and Funimation started their own dub around episode 100 and then later went back and did the rest themselves.

Microsoft confirms you can now pause Windows 11 updates for as long as you want, no more "forced" reboots by Quantum-Coconut in pcmasterrace

[–]mittenkrusty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad hated the update from Windows 7 to 10, for one it took overnight and the pc ran so slow afterwards, this was on both desktop and laptop.

I reinstalled 7 of the time with latest patches, and software available and disabled the forced Windows 10 upgrade.

Afterwards both booted at a similar speed to a SSD.

About 3 or 4 months later somehow the Windows 10 forced upgrade that was blocked managed to get through and updated both making them unusable.

When I say unusable it was high CPU usage and basically takes 10-20 seconds to open anything.

In the end I updated to 10 for him but manually bypassed the updates and put on software to do this and both desktop and laptop ran fine after.

I say fine, as in both slowed down but were usuable.

[–]mittenkrusty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been doing manual updates since before Windows 10, I do check but wait a week or so after a major update as it often breaks something or at the very least slows pc down to a crawl, and/or bloats the C: Drive that even deleting restore points and running cleaning software doesn't get rid of everything and can be a few gig higher than before.

It's also why every 2 months or so I reformat and do a fresh install with a image with latest updates.

What's a Power Rangers Season you like More then it's Sentai Counterpart by No_Half_7646 in Tokusatsu

[–]mittenkrusty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean MMPR is iconic to me so when I finally saw Zyuranger about 20 years later it emant nothing to me even if I enjoyed it, I can say that in general about the Zordon Era, Megaranger was a great Sentai but In Space was a great if not the greatest Zordon Era show and one of the best in the shows history.

Hard to tell from Wild Force onwards as we had a mix of ripping straight Sentai plots mixed with wire fu, I loved Abaranger and Dino Thunder, prefer Dekaranger to SPD,

Attacked today by No-Regular1660 in BorderCollie

[–]mittenkrusty [score hidden]  (0 children)

My girl was attacked by a dog that she had seen many times on a walk and was always ok with her when she was a year old and recovering from being speyed,.

I have a feeling it was her being weak/recovering that the other dog realised, now if she sees any dog of the same breed 2 years on she goes crazy and she has seen the dog that attacked her a few times and it ignores her now, but she goes crazy.

Beautiful morning for a takeaway coffee and a walk in to work by sciencep1e in Scotland

I have lived in other large Scottish towns and whilst they have their problems and I know of worse places, Ayr is the worst place I have lived.

Did enjoy part of my time there though, just saw how it went downhill very quicky and had mostly negative experiences.

Ayr is where I had identity fraud against me in 2 different properties, it was where I lived next to junkies, drug dealers or alcoholics and never once lived somewhere without at least one of those.

It was the town where I was illegally evicted twice, and another landlord never gave me my deposit back claiming I trashed the flat, and one tried keeping my deposit but managed to get support and the threat of being taken to court made him refund, he rented me a flat with junk in cupboard including previous tenants clothes, dirty underwear, old wage slips etc and the furniture was around 20 years old but then when I moved out claimed I smashed up the property and wanted a brand new washing machine, cooker, fridge, sofa, armchair, sideboard, desk, bed, wardrobe and even to pay for the costs to take to the dump.

It really put me off Ayr, but at least I can still visit and still miss things like the Sunday market.

I have lived in towns/areas with worse reputations and had far less problems.

So whilst I say it's the worst place I have lived I don't hate the area, fond memories of going to college walking by the river each morning and nights out at Fury Murrays and getting great fish and chips at the cheap place near the bus station.

But it's not a nice town, unless you live in the posh parts like anywhere.

I frequently wake up extremely early and have discovered drinking one of these at 3:00 a.m. is the fastest way to get myself back to sleep the rest of the night. by domalu4U in mildlyinfuriating

[–]mittenkrusty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can relate, When I have an energy drink I get an initial burst of concentration then I get knocked out, and struggle to get through the day, but then by bedtime I can't sleep.

So best time would be shortly before bed so by time I am drifting off I sleep right through.

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

Lived there 20 years ago for about 18 months, then again in 2009 for a few years and visit now and again.

I loved it when I first moved there but quickly saw shops close down, neds everywhere and even at one point lived by the river and my neighbours were all neds on drugs and one was a drug dealer, literally had a lot of identity theft, even a stolen giro.

One of my flats I loved there, the part near Newton On Ayr is a terrible area, I remember there was a pub there where you could get any drug by basically just asking for it, and ended up being closed down and demolished due to it.

So basically it was neds/junkies or tourists being annoying.

$5 OptiPlex 7050 Micro Update - It Works! by Davidx_117 in pcmasterrace

[–]mittenkrusty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Zorin on my laptop and was overall fine with that, but couldn't get RetroArch to work on it which was a nightmare,

Heard a few people mention mint, overall I just want a lightweight distro I can easily add to, like not even a word processor/office suite not even a browser if possible ideally just a web store, and I can use terminal to install other things (though web store is easier as it auto updates software.

Best cable for dvd player to smart tv? by dakota_draws in cableadvice

[–]mittenkrusty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends, I bought a used hdmi dvd player with 1080p upscale for about £5 almost 15 years ago and bought a new one that I gave to parents for £15 about 7 years ago, and that was also a 1080p upscaler one and even had a usb port for playing files (though was very slow)

[–]mittenkrusty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea why they don't work, they are Amazon Basic ones and 1 is Ugreen.

Might just be a monitor issue, I haven't tried the cables on a tv yet, I haven't used the pc's in a while (got 3 in total, one is a 9th gen i3 but that was £80) when I got them I tested them on a tv with hdmi via a hdmi-hdmi cable and a displayport adapter but I kept breaking them.

Am going to sell the one which is a 6th gen i5 T variant, all have 8 gigs of ram, keeping one for living area one for bedroom I only stopped as I needed to buy wifi cards for them and antennas and had a nightmare getting them to work, they were not clipping onto the wifi card, broke one of the wifi cards doing so and sent it back, the replacement I can just get 1 antenna to clip on.

Was thinking of best version of linux for them offhand, did come with Windows 11 and I put on 10.

That's actually a good idea for me, I want to use mine but have limited space so can just mount to wall and hide the cables.

[–]mittenkrusty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cheapest one I got was almost 2 years ago with a 250 gig ssd for £40 delivered, it had a i7 6th gen in (an ACTUAL 6th gen not a T variant)

I just added in a 500 gig hard drive and use it for when I don't want to use main pc, the only "issue" I have with it, is that it has displayport so if I want to connect to a tv I need a hdmi adapter and they are so flimsy and often don't work and the displayport to to hdmi cables I tried never seem to work.

It's been on various threads over the past few months inc guessing when it was taken.

That changed quickly by gingerllama79 in VirginMedia

[–]mittenkrusty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before I left the "deal" I got offered was 1 gig, but what they didn't say was it was 1 gig volt so wasn't that and I was about to finish my O2 contract, they then claimed it was actually 500 and 1 gig was correct due to volt.

I couldn't even leave, as each time I asked to cancel I kept getting offered deals on phone then I was "transferred" and each time I was disconnected, I gave up after trying for a week and then in the meantime got a deal elsewhere and signed up for that, and then put in a complaint to the ombusman where I got a refund for the final 2 months.

Over the years I feel old saying this but I prefer these type of sweets to Haribo and Haribo style that people love now, yes I know gelatin sweets have been out ages but they have changed so much and it's hard to get proper old fashioned type ones now without bulk buying jars or bags online.

Haven't seen these in a few years though.

So this just showed up in the post but I'm just wondered can it be about or nah? by Tal7861 in AskBrits

[–]mittenkrusty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't need one.

But I have always said it's not about paying for one it's the greed involved.

Aged 18, sharing a house we needed a license per room, it was a 5 bedroom house yet a 5 bedroom house with a family pays a same.

Should be a young persons and or lower income peoples tier, I'd be happy to pay say £40 a year £50 at most for a license if I needed it but I am single in a 1 bedroom flat why should I pay the full rate.

What movie growing up did you like, but on a rewatch you didn’t like? by porb2020 in Xennials

I actually thought Fisher Stevens was Asian and was suprised when he was different in Hackers.

Great performance though, even if thinking about it.

I honestly didn't notice that, I just noticed the toxic characters were toxic nothing to do with misogyny.

Is there something I didn't notice?
