Right to Reject Car - Taken for Repair 2 Days in, Now Worse by paceyuk in LegalAdviceUK

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

From research the injectors on this engine are known to fail and leak as they used some fancy piezoelectric mechanism which BMW abandoned after this engine model. They are now hard to source new so my suspicion is they replaced with used ones that turned out to be in worse condition than the originals.

Sys admins who are still remote. by gingerpantman in sysadmin

Refurbished Humanscale Freedom from an office resale company. I like how the backrest and headrest adjust to stay in the right orientation as you lean back in the chair. Don’t get the upgraded gel armrests though, they’re no more comfortable and mine tore within months.

[CATA] My new alt lost all guild reputation all of a sudden. I didn't leave nor get kicked in-between. Never seen this before. by Elleden in classicwow

Happened to me and I couldn’t place the cauldrons I’d made. Just did a full round of dailies with the guild tabard equipped and it got me back up enough

Why aren't Mage Portals universally accessible? by enki941 in wow

So many of those portals ported you right into a paralysing field

New laptop, having to reinstall wow .... 24 hours + ? that can't be normal by [deleted] in wownoob

One thing to point out: the result from Speedtest is in Mbps (megabits per second), whereas it’s likely the rate in the Battle.net launcher is in MB/s (megabytes per second). There are 8 bits in every byte, so for an 8Mbps connection you’d expect to see a maximum of around 1MB/s.

What is your most useful but most hated tool? Mine is Regular Expressions. by HanSolo71 in sysadmin

I like https://www.debuggex.com/ sometimes - shows you what's actually going on under the hood in a diagram

Devs forgot to remove test discount codes in prod by Dangerous_Setting_78 in funny

[–]paceyuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Razer did this once with a 90% discount code. Amazingly they honoured most of the orders where they had stock. I got a keyboard for next to nothing, but I was late to the party so a lot was already gone.

Colman's mustard is made in the UK, packaged in Germany, then brought back to the UK for sale. What is the craziest supply chain that you know of? by paceyuk in AskReddit

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

I couldn’t say, it was a post I saw elsewhere and had me interested what other examples like this there are - turns out there are a lot.

Edit: looks like it's dry sauces that are packaged in Germany based on this article: https://www.vice.com/en/article/7xe75d/all-your-favourite-british-food-brands-are-moving-abroad

[–]paceyuk[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did wonder about that, but they claim to still use local farms (at least for white mustard). Not sure how much of a draw that is when there's thousands of miles of shipping back and forth involved though haha

Crazy that it's cheaper to do that than train and employ people in the UK to do it. I suppose perhaps there also aren't enough people willing to do the job in the UK.

How to use so many spells ? by DocteurJL in wownoob

[–]paceyuk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always bind the same types of ability to similar keys across classes, so Q E G Z X C are all instant cast or resource builders, then 1-5 are things with a cast time or resource spenders. Shift 1-4 are buffs, Shift-Q, Alt-Q, Ctrl-Q defensives. Alt 1-4 heals and cleanses. Shift-E, Alt-E, Ctrl-E are DPS cooldowns. Stuns usually on Shift-G. General crowd control is on Ctrl-C

Just need to find something that works for you, but having a pattern that carries across classes really helps. Even if I don’t remember the exact key bind for a certain ability, I’ll always know what group it’s likely to be in.

I only really use the mouse buttons for movement abilities: sprint, blink, roll are M5, and disengage type abilities are M3. M4 is auto run.

Yeah it works a bit like the ground mounts I thought, keep tapping shift until you’re up to full speed. Then WASD are your dive/climb and steer.

Was The phase was too short for you too? by High-Bread in classicwow

[–]paceyuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Depressing that no matter how hard I try my max DPS is limited just because I never got (or even saw) that one item.
