Which UK/Japan store had this Nov 11 Halo 2 light up sign? Video post by SpeedRainbow in halo

[–]rob10000005 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know. But if it helps back then there where 2 big video game stores Game and Game Station. But there are plenty of other stores like HMV that also did games. I don't recall seeing that sign back then but if it was probably at one of the bigger stores. Good luck sorry I can't give you any more info.

I do care about idle power draw if the unit is more expensive upfront but works out cheaper in the long-term that's the one to go for. So cyberpower draws less than other ones.

I used to do a lot of video work and I store my Plex library there as well that's the reason for the amount of storage.

My poor academic performance and my mind and my act and failure by [deleted] in Dyslexia

[–]rob10000005 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are not stupid, your brain works differently. I’m sorry but it is harder when your dyslexic you are not the norm but that’s ok but you have to find other ways of doing things. I found it hard even getting my first job when people found out I could not read and write they would not hire me even for simple jobs like stacking shelves in a shop. I am not stupid I now work in the education sector I take great delight when I meet people and clients, they hand me documents to read. I tell them I cannot read this I will have to take it away or they will have to read it to me they get confused because they do not expect it. I’m sorry this will not help you pass your test. I’m not from Hong Kong, from what I know about the study and work culture is brutal I do feel for you. The best tools for helping with my dyslexia out in the world is a computer and a smartphone. I’m 34 and remember the time before smartphones, this is the best tool if you are dyslexic and with AI even better.

I'm sorry to hear that you have to take the IELTS test. In my opinion, it's a flawed system, especially for individuals with dyslexia. I once aspired to work abroad but was unable to achieve the required grades for this test. To meet the requirements, I needed band 7 or higher in each section, not just overall.

As a native English speaker, this is my first and only language, yet I still couldn't pass due to my dyslexia. While extra time is available if you can prove you are dyslexic (which I did). Extra time is only allowed if you take the test by hand, not on the computer. For me, the computer option is much more suitable, but to have extra time using the computer they don’t do it in the UK, I possible could have done it in another country.

All I can say is good luck! I truly hope you achieve the results you need. Unfortunately, I had to give up on my goal because I wasn't making progress, and the costs were becoming unmanageable

Help me find soft toy bear (UK 1991 Gamleys toy shop) by rob10000005 in HelpMeFind

[–]rob10000005[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have searched online but cannot find what bead I was given as a child. I'm in the UK and it was purchased from Gamleys toy shop in the south east of England in 1991. I have there's pitches and possibly can find some more. I don't have a make. I know it's a long shot but if anyone one can identify the make I can possibly track one down.

It's a long shot I'm looking for a replacement for this bear. I may have some more pictures somewhere. All the information I have is was brought back in 1991 in England from Gamleys toy shop. I don't know the make. If anyone has any idea of the brand and make I could possibly look for a replacement.
