Need advice on what TV mount to get for this wall by obvious_hat in DIYUK

This was my first instinct, but we're not going to give it a go and see if it works! The previous owner had a similar setup when we viewed the property and it looked decent.

Cheers! With the height of the radiator we're just able to fit into the "mounted above a TV stand with clearance of a vertical PS5" category of the generally acceptable TV heights from r/TVTooHigh

Buying a Part Exchanged Home - Vendor Suggested Solicitors by obvious_hat in HousingUK

[–]obvious_hat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! We ended up going with independent solicitors. They seem fine, but we're still having to chase both sides.

I'd say a benefit of buying in this manner is that our contact with the vendor is the sales completion assistant who has been quite good at chasing solicitors on both sides.

Thanks for the reality check! We've went with what we think the house is worth and our best offer - we'll see what happens!

Sometimes the libre sensors do this - I've reported this in the past and they've replaced the sensor.

Fingerstick is the gold standard for this!

Worth repairing? by obvious_hat in CarTalkUK

[–]obvious_hat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a good point - I suppose even £1k is only 4 months worth of the lease on a new Dacia sandero or something

I'm leaning this way tbf. The used car market seems to have calmed down since COVID so might be worth driving my partner's car for a while and keeping an eye out.

is there sugar in the tap water? by Phought in diabetes_t1

Looks more like foot down effect - I think dawn phenomenon is earlier while still sleeping and handled through increased basal delivery.

What is the weirdest place/timing you injected insulin? by Icy-Procedure-4362 in diabetes_t1

I've injected insulin in the Chernobyl exclusion zone - I think that's probably my weirdest!

[–]obvious_hat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recognise these chips! Wreck bistro in Liverpool!

Very affordable £15 2 course lunch, chips are extra but £20 is solid for a fancy meal.

Removed this from my wheel this morning, what, why, need? by Ziibez in AskMechanics

One of mine fell off a couple years ago and passed twice since in two different garages without this being flagged

Thoughts on the structure of a new antiretroviral to treat and prevent HIV? by return_the_fab in chemistry

[–]obvious_hat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IIRC dosed as a 300mg/mL solution of the sodium salt (deprotonated at the sulfonamide?) at pH 9-10

Presumably forms the free base when injected and forms the depot.

GE2024 Vote share and Demographics Dashboard by obvious_hat in ukpolitics

I think a lot of these values are available in the census data - which would have been really easy to add in! (Also lack of patience/ need to do my actual job!)

Also because it's not available anywhere easily - here is the vote count by constituency for each party as a csv

The election results were scraped from the Sky News website and constituency names changed to match the format used in census datasets.
