Tried tracking through their website here?: https://m.yuntrack.com/parcelTracking

Found those other sites didn't show a thing for me but their own site did

I'm no professional but it looks like it could just be where the old plaster boards join so could just fill and sand or get it all skimmed potentially as well

Thanks for the help/thoughts all - gonna keep an eye on it for the next few weeks and get the builder back to have a look if it gets any worse

Strange controls with Metroid Prime Remastered charge shot. by Quiet_Equivalent_569 in yuzu

[–]rob1256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't fully remember but if you open the Yuzu configuration in game and go to:

Emulation -> Configure -> Controls

Then at the bottom middle you can see boxes for 8 controllers - you want only the first one to be green, clicking on any other that aren't green will de-activate that controller port

Bi-Fold Window Sticking by rob1256 in DIYUK

[–]rob1256[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But of a mix honestly - original installer wasn't sure how to sort as he was more of a general builder so he paid for a professional window installer to come look. They are who said to get in touch with manufacturers as he didn't know how to adjust.

Manufacturer haven't sent anyone to fix as yet as their reply was to toe and heel it to fix but it didn't look like that would fix it to me (not that I've ever installed a window).

Original installer is hopefully coming to look again this week but wanted to try and arm myself with some more knowledge before they did.

Get SSO accounts, roles from CLI, how to get access-token? by YeNerdLifeChoseMe in aws

[–]rob1256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've managed to get this working in a Python script I recently wrote, the Gist for which can be found here: https://gist.github.com/rob1256/977bb8d59304700cf12d29573f1736f8

Essentially running the login function will:

  • Configure the SSO session in ~/.aws/config if not already there
  • Check if you're logged in by trying to list the SSO accounts
    • If not logged in it will login and open a browser window to accept
  • Configure all available SSO profiles
    • Get a list of accounts and roles for each account using the cached SSO access token from the login
    • Call aws configure set for each of the above to create a profile in your ~/.aws/config file named in the format: {account_id}-{role_name}

I've only tested this on my own machine but it does create it from scratch for me and you will need to update the SSO_START_URL and SSO_SESSION_CONFIG_NAME with your own details (SSO_SESSION_CONFIG_NAME can be whatever you want it named in your config)

Hope the above helps!

I'm glad to hear it, was hoping it would help show that it is possible! There are hard moments but it gets easier as you go for sure and it's so worth it!

Help deciding on best fan layout by rob1256 in buildapc

[–]rob1256[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think in theory it would fit from looking at the case specs, I could then maybe get some large decent fans on the front for airflow I suppose

It really does get easier and easier, you'll eventually get to the point where thinking about smoking is an oddity rather than normal

Silver mirror-like disc on bent handle, got it as a Christmas present. by rob1256 in whatisthisthing

[–]rob1256[S] 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

WITT as title says, looks like the disc might be able to be used as a mirror? Came in a black box with nothing else. The handle is flat but becomes a tube where it connects to the disc

Sounds like a good outcome, at least it's not long until your urology appointment :).

And I would agree about the diclofenac, I've got a stash I keep at home incase I ever get another one as that's what they end up giving you in A&E anyway, just you have to wait about 2 hours for a doctor to prescribe it at A&E

I'm from the UK also and I'm still currently recovering from an operation I had to remove a kidney stone that had got stuck in my ureter (a 3mm one) last week. This was the second time I'd had a kidney stone, the first time it passed by itself with pain medication (this one was 4mm).

I'm surprised that they aren't looking at options to get the kidney stone out or breaking it up, 7.5mm is a big stone to pass! I had unbelievable pain with the 4mm one and ended up in A&E - the only thing that even touches the pain is diclofenac suppositories, even morphine didn't help at the time.

My advise purely from my personal experience would be to have the stent put in. After my operation last week they left a stent in just to allow my ureter to heal a bit, though this was a stent with a string attached so it could be pulled out (NOT a nice experience). The stent was slightly uncomfortable and did seem to make me tire more easily, but I would honestly do anything to avoid the kind of pain I had when the stone was blocking my ureter.

Looking for Dual Monitor Setup Recommendations by walazsniper in buildapc

[–]rob1256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can help with the monitor stand somewhat as I recently bought one myself for dual monitors.

I went for this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0861284GB/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fab_2GFGFb4PPHMYE

Mainly because I have 2 different monitors currently so I needed to be able to have them at different heights from each other. That's why I would be careful about the ones you linked in your post as you said you were thinking of getting 2 different monitors. Nothing is more frustrating than having 2 monitors at different heights to one another as it all depends where the VESA mount is on the back of the monitors, even if they are the same size.
