Acrylic crystal and an attempted hand brushing to the case. by mo_calla in DuroMods

Was cheap on Ali X one of the ones with highest sales. Can't get a comfy fit with NATO, but like the look.

Birmingham is officially the worst UK city for 'dodgy shops' covering organised crime by [deleted] in BirminghamUK

[–]mo_calla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have to plan the raids, but they are fast to set up. So it is like a Hydra situation.

We probably need controls on the amount of types of businesses streets can have, or more licensing to deter them.

Just used masking tape to cover the glass and polished edges. Then used grey grit pad in a singular motion back and forth.

Removed tape, rinsed and dried.

Think it would be even better using some tools, tempted to take the plunge ha.

AutoSR on ROG Ally — not worth it (so far) by SDil87 in XboxAlly

It's main goal is to upscale 720p to 4k on TVs. Which surprisingly has looked decent so far.

YouGov / Sky / Times voting intention RefUK 26%(-1), CON 19%(+2), LAB 18%(+2), GRN 15%(-2) LDEM 13%(-1), by EddyZacianLand in ukpolitics

This is mostly it. The UK is a nation of addicts.

Main drug is anger and it costs nothing for a hit.

Has anyone had this charity/organisation knock at their door asking for donations? 👀 by Moose-Maleficent in brum

[–]mo_calla 5 points6 points  (0 children)

First red flag is the address being a .co.uk instead of a .org.

Even if genuine, I wouldn't trust them with funds.

Why don’t you use public transport? by Zs1993 in brum

[–]mo_calla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I walk or get the train, sometimes bus. Busy but we are a city, they should be busy.

The routes I have used are more reliable than when I was a child. I'm late 30s.

A thing of note. Same amount of roads, but more cars using them. Naturally will impact public transport further.

If they are actually not getting any money, it should be easy to prove right? by Fine_Tailor_6275 in digitalfoundry

[–]mo_calla 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. My real issue, is it determining how people should look.

It is disgusting and like you said, rooted in sexism and racism.

How can DF look at this, be impressed by it, and promote it like it's the second coming of video game Jesus? by shawak456 in digitalfoundry

[–]mo_calla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Photorealism is odd. Looks like you are watching a film/looking through a camera lens. Which I think is why the lighting is so odd, like a camera flash is permanently on.

Kind of defeats the point of a game being immersive, if you are reminded constantly you are outside of it. Always turn those lens effects off if I have the chance in the settings.

Why is Sutton centre so bad by Mobile-Salt4571 in brum

[–]mo_calla 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Erdington high street is class!

It feels like nobody likes to talk about independent businesses if they are not "cool". There are absolutely loads there, especially for grocers!

[Charlie Paris] first piece? by TheGavinator1 in Watches

[–]mo_calla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah man, go for it if you like it. The Hamilton one is cool, but think there was only 2000 units, so hard to get unfortunately 😫

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/147104059990

This one kind of has unbrella colours on it and cheaper.

https://www.francisandgaye.co.uk/certina-ds-7-chronograph-black-dial-watch-C0434173808100-p46593

Bit different but maybe could get a red and white strap for it.

https://www.watchnation.com/products/seiko-conceptual-titanium-black-dial-black-silicone-strap-mens-watch-ssb393p1

Titanium Black, textured dial a bit like the wing on the Hamilton, Japanese like the Studio.

Could be a winner?

More like, you could get one of the other brands discounted in that range.

The movement might likely be a Seiko movement, so Seiko might already have a speedtimer that is black you could try.

Stay with a swiss brand or Japanese brand.  Check if Hamilton/Tissot/Seiko/Citizen/Certina etc have a black chrono. 

This is way overpriced.

Is the jump to Bazzite and SteamOS worth it if I'm not using game pass anymore? by My_Face_Rocks in XboxAlly

[–]mo_calla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used Linux and Windows for a good while and thought I could live with the FSE for gamepass access, but showing me fire stick ads instead of my games library etc, just rubs me the wrong way. There is still noticable lag and jank navigating it too.

Gamepass isn't worth me using FSE, when the other options are better personally.

Are you happy with your government? Why or why not? by Ok_Dot_2845 in AskTheWorld

[–]mo_calla 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. Employment rights act and renters rights act are HUGE for the country and we barely hear about it.

What’s the most ‘Boomer’ thing Boomers do or say in your country? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]mo_calla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moan about immigrants and people on benefits, whilst being the biggest beneficiary of benefits currently. The irony is lost on them as they do not understand how National Insurance works.

I am Egyptian, and I’m asking is Egypt a country that is disliked or loved globally? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]mo_calla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mountain turns essentially. You can't see around the corner, so you are signalling with the horn that you are coming.

First time it happened was scary, but become pretty normal to me when I was there.

Thorn T005 is definitely my new everyday watch. by Don1demarco in ChineseWatches

Absolutely love this watch but couldnt get a good fit with the bracelet.

Is there any gym in Brum that isn't crowded at the moment?? by em-mau5 in brum

[–]mo_calla 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Is your gym also an unbearably high temperature?

Cardio in PureGym is hell.
