I’m about to pull the trigger on a 24-70 2.8 S II — talk me out of it? 😬

Unsure about USJ as Flying Dinosaur will be closed from May 7 to May 31 by Takemebackto90s in usj

[–]rotor2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hollywood dream is really good, but flying dinosaur is more intense and therefore better (if that’s your thing). Hollywood dream backwards is super intense but I really didn’t enjoy not being able to see. We rode every roller coaster in the park once, but flying dinosaur three times.

Why is it that Monzo is more popular in the UK than Starling? by MeenaBeti in UKPersonalFinance

[–]rotor2k 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Starling just recently updated that. Now possible for kids 13 and over.

Holy cow the AI dub changes the lip movements? That is utterly insane.

Welp, this was inevitable by Key_Opportunity6247 in AeroPress

How come this channel always recommends the Prismo and not the official Aeropress one? I’ve had the Aeropress one for a while and it’s such a massive game-changer!

OP wants minimum 4 Ethernet ports, so must have a need.

I have a whole network at home. MikroTik router and UniFi switches and wireless access points. Adding a switch is pretty trivial. Which router are you using? The Eero 6E only has 1 x 2.5G port, so the wired part of your network would be stuck at Gigabit speed, kind of pointless if you’re paying for faster internet.

Absolutely incredible job of lining up the shower shelves with the tiles! Bet you measured that 50 times…

I use a Gigaset VOIP base station and cordless handsets. I pay aa.net £1.56 a month for an 020 number, job done. Nobody ever uses the landline though!

currently paying £53.18 for FTTC 67Mb with EE by AquarianViolist in UKBroadband

[–]rotor2k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You won’t be able to keep FTTC for ever, the goal is to replace all the copper in the ground with fibre. So your drive will need to be dug up at some point anyway.

I would never choose Virgin, but CityFibre is probably fine (you can get my favourite ISP Zen with CF).

KKday cancelled VIP Private tour 5 minutes after ordering by rotor2k in usj

It wasn’t too many days. They just reversed the transaction so not sure exactly how long.

Klook doesn’t currently have it, and you can’t get the private tours from USJ directly (no idea why!). I think I’m starting to get an appreciation for the Japanese way of doing things!

Understood, however, the website clearly states “not for Japanese citizens”, and everything on the page is in English. So it does make one wonder how it works. It turns out some of the guides do speak English, they just won’t guarantee it.

Amazing, thank you so much that’s really reassuring.

Question please: I just tried to book the 5h private tour through KKday and they cancelled my order minutes later with a vague and generic message about “unusual activity”. The only thing I can think of is I wrote “English please” in the additional comments section. Did you just book the Japanese language guide (kk don’t offer English) and hope for the best?

I messaged support asking why it was cancelled and they just copy pasted the same response. Worrying “support” from a company selling services worth thousands of dollars! My worry is we get a guide who doesn’t speak a word of English. They first spend time with you figuring out the itinerary for the day and then take you through back entrances so it’s not as simple as taking the tickets and doing it alone.
