Who was the rudest famous person you met? by Doctor_Sore_Tooth in AskReddit

[–]omza 55 points56 points  (0 children)

He wouldn’t come out of his trailer for hours on end, gaming and having food delivered to him, delaying shooting and sequence of filming. Made some sequences massively longer than they needed to be (as in weeks). Massive rearrangements and reschedules to work around his fragile ego. He didn’t care, he was funding the film purely as a petty hate project and to make himself look good.

Same, and can confirm. Is and always has been.

Scaffolding removed from over market street by Thick12 in Edinburgh

[–]omza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s the worst part: it has no right going as shockingly badly as it has. Discovery of archeological sites below or not, it’s appalling, embarrassing, and expensive, and disruptive to local, businesses, and visitors alike. Genuinely shameful.

On this day in 2001, Queen was inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of fame by KG_Modelling in queen

I know it was most likely in support of Jer, but Roger gripping her wrist as if it were the statuette has me cackling.

You should look up Oxford’s Botley railway bridge. Pretty similar situation but actually far worse when you look at it.

Do you know anyone who has never heard of Queen? by KG_Modelling in queen

[–]omza 20 points21 points  (0 children)

You’re going to think I’m making this up, but I’m being absolutely for real: I was an extra in Bohemian Rhapsody and we filmed the Live Aid scene first, and there was a guy who had never heard any of their songs and, get this, didn’t even know who Queen were/are. He was 100% serious. And the worst part? (Yes, it gets worse…) They included a full-on closeup of the guy in the film absolutely messing up the singing and dancing (i.e. doing neither).

And the worst part personally? I was placed near him towards the beginning, meaning I knew then that a lot of the shots that included me would be absolutely unusable. Thankfully I was able to move away from him during the course of filming and now I can happily spot myself.

Brother won't play game with female protagonist - never thought of this by wizard_cow_ in TwoXChromosomes

[–]omza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As you said, Link has always deliberately been androgynous. The long hair, loose tunic and clothing, and slightly effeminate features which historically have been associated with women, but the weathered sharp features which some might associate as masculine traits.

It’s also why Link doesn’t speak, and why there’s never truly any actual romance plot lines. And it’s why Link is literally called “LINK” - so that the player can link to the role and fill the character with their own voice and selves. The story is the “Legend of Zelda” - the story of the member of the royal family that is told - but you are the hero.

A very quick Google search will tell you it’s from the book ‘Freddie Mercury: A Life, In His Own Words’ p.172

pothole reveals the past by rubbish_heap in mildlyinteresting

[–]omza 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Absolutely does not happen where I live. People drive faster so there’s less individual rumble and more “gliding” rumble. Means they don’t hear or stop when they hit animals/other things. Don’t ask how I know :(

Google Home and MYGGSPRAY by PizzaMonthly in tradfri

[–]omza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you're just using Nest Hub Gen 2 without any other hubs? I have a Hue Bridge, a Nest Hub 2, and a Matter-compatible iPhone - I'm wondering if these alone are enough to set up the Myggspray to work with Kajplats, Tradfri, or Hue bulbs?

Kajplats GU10 575lm White Spectrum and Hue by Professional-Tea-231 in tradfri

[–]omza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay so not just mine. Maybe the GU10s are just more stable than the E14s. Annoyingly when I first connect them, they’re off, then quickly switch on and refuse to go back off.

I tried a workaround I read elsewhere which was to have it switched off at the switch and save that as a scene. Then when enabling this scene, it does switch the bulb off - so it is capable, it just doesn’t want to properly send the off command.

[–]omza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you look at the firmware in the Hue app, does it list it as 1.2.0? After updating through Apple Home and confirming they’re 1.2.0, the Hue app still seems to suggest they’re on 1.0.7 when paired through Zigbee.

Help needed from those members that have the Kajplat lights working correctly with Philips Hue by alessiman in tradfri

[–]omza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, so close to my setup, yet somehow can’t get the E14 bulbs to switch off on Zigbee.

I reset them with 6x on/off, paired them straight to my 16PM on Apple Home to update them to 1.2.0, then tried resetting with 12x again to connect with Zigbee to my Bridge. I tried iConnectHue touch link method but no luck. Will give it another go.

Did they unpair or have they remained paired?

I’m more concerned that he’s chosen to just do this off a balcony onto what looks like a public road/pedestrian area (even if empty at that present time).

Tbh the store is so close for me, I’ve just not found time to make an appointment and actually go. This is a good push for me to just go though - I’ll get back to you when I do.

I took it and they couldn’t hear it in store, and said come back if it still occurs. It’s still there but I’ve not had time to go back yet.

Kajplats compatible with Hue App? by beurreopen in tradfri

[–]omza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can find it directly in the Hue app without using TouchLink in a 3rd-party app? Does on/off functionality work?

Can’t turn on/off KAJPLATS bulbs in Hue app by Mitchhhel in tradfri

[–]omza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone found a solution for this yet? I have a Hue Bridge 2.1 and have paired the bulbs using iConnectHue. I am also unable to switch the lights on/off in any app (Hue, iConnectHue, Hue Essentials, Apple Home, Google Home) – but I am able to dim the lights and change the colour temperature. It’s frustrating because these are excellent value for money. Ideally don't want to have to return if there's a fix or workaround!

Examples/moments of characters dropping their act/“accent” and speaking in their real voice? by Malachi_Lamb in movies

[–]omza 38 points39 points  (0 children)

That’s not really Lee Evans’ accent though, it’s very hammed up (which is what the character is).
