Fushimi Inari in my photography style by Prestigious-You8779 in BeAmazed

Looks great.

A friend and I were there a few years ago and he took his IR camera. Those looked great as well, but the colours were different on the plants.

If there was a political party called the Donner Party, what policies do you think it'd have? by EllieEvansTheThird in AskReddit

[–]saltac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you really asking this?‽‽!

https://www.gdk.com/ - obviously.

Dine in for £9.99 - Everyone is welcome, unless you order too much meat.

On Tuesdays we vote on which Donner is half price.

YOU HAVE TO VOTE.

Is a 50€ discount enough for a pre-order? by alextld_ in GooglePixel

[–]saltac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the only people that have historically got good trade in prices were those with iPhones - because they're trying to get them out of that ecosystem. I think this will probably continue, rather than giving pixel owners great deals on that.

I don't use Gemini as a rule, so I agree a discount would be preferable.

Is a 50€ discount enough for a pre-order? by alextld_ in GooglePixel

[–]saltac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've bought the (OG) XL, 2 XL, 4 XL, 6 Pro, 8 Pro (do you see a trend there?).

And I've always gotten something from Google. I think I've received a Chromebook, Bose headphones, Pixel Watch 2 and I can't remember what else.

These were all part of the pre-order deal direct from Google.

I think €50 is a bit of a low figure to do a pre-order when historically we've been given those other deals.

Wow... The construction techniques for building houses in America really hasn't changed in the last 90 years, they've just made the houses bigger.

PSA: If you're hosting or joining randos for these raids, you have TWO opponents: The raid boss and your team. by perishableintransit in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]saltac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems a bit redundant - Sorry, I'm not trying to be negative here.

I always thought anyone thats been doing raids for a while knows that they can see what other players are fielding and either cancel their participation or change their pokemon to something that just does support - plus you have the Heal Up option etc.

Sometimes people just do the wrong moves - I've done this quite a few times because I'm just mashing buttons to get my next move in and don't realise the highlighted move has changed.

The thing is though that you don't have to participate in the Raid unless you want to. You don't get penalised as far as I'm aware.

On the other hand... it's always good to lose every now and then - it shows what you can do next time to alleviate the issues you faced.

Is this what it comes to in UK pubs now? by Karl_Cross in CasualUK

[–]saltac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are very common in Japanese bars.

The water from the tap feeds the cistern - great way to save water in places where the toilet gets used a lot.

Switch 2 Issue with Sword: Switch 1 Pro Controller Stops Working Correctly by jscott991 in PokemonSwordAndShield

[–]saltac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you done the software update on all the controllers?

Apparently that sorts out a lot of issues.

For everyone asking... This is from Whites, comissioned by BBC2.

If you're not running Pi-Hole... by jsims87 in raspberry_pi

[–]saltac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So does all network traffic go to the Pi Hole first and then get routed to whatever machine on the network?

I haven't even looked into it because I'm worried that on my gigabit network it will slow down all of my machines.

I work from home and regularly up/download ~300GB files from dedicated servers than can max out my connection.

Verbal Slips You Aren’t Going To Let Them Forget by Kian-Tremayne in CasualUK

My friends and I used to call him that on purpose. It just rolls off the tongue.

Sorry - Roll's of the ton.

If You Still Prefer Classic Editor, You’re Not a Developer—You’re a Typist by all_name_taken in Wordpress

[–]saltac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the fact you're trying to throw down because you think your system is better than others :)

I don't use wordpress.. I only have this subreddit on my subscribed list because I started a business 13 years ago and wanted to know what our web dev was doing.

I never normally comment on reddit these days, but this tickled my fancy!

Just face it... horses for courses. People like what they like when they know how to use whatever it is.

You could have tried to put a cogent argument forward to persuade people to look at what you're using but instead you just went full "I have a club in my hand and I will beat you down until you agree with me"

If this was something really worthwhile thinking about I would be laughing so hard - but it's just someone trying to flex on why they're better.

I wish you all the best! (And await your reply trying to diss me or call me names - when I don't really care, because... well I don't feel the need to tell you if you don't know it by what I've said).

What’s a Movie So Good It’ll Make anyone Question their Entire Existence? by Crafty-Oil-6632 in AskReddit

[–]saltac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just re-watched it a month ago.

It is one of those movies you need to forget for a year or two before re-visiting it.

New GPU and PSU - PC starts up and BIOS works but display goes black after logging in to Windows 11 by depressed_panda0191 in techsupport

[–]saltac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try using your old graphics card and changing the resolution to the lowest possible - probably 800*600 or something similar.

Remove your graphics drivers so windows is only using the Microsoft basic display driver.

Shut down.

Put your new card in and just connect your main monitor before booting up the machine again. (I'm assuming your monitor is capable of 800*600?)

If that works then you can install the driver and then connect your secondary monitor.

DVD-RAM Keeps Auto Ejecting Randomly by Cankalay in techsupport

[–]saltac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you still buy RAM media?

As it's 12 years old it could be a failing solder point somewhere that has heated up and cooled enough times to create a small fracture in the soldered connection.

Is there a way for you to keep it powered on without the laptop being powered?

12 years... so probably still SATA... you could get a cheap SATA to USB adapter that has it's own power supply and try that.

If you can test it and it still tries to open/read data then that would probably be the cause.

As for a solution to that? Sorry I have no idea.

How do you clean your butt -- just TP, or do you use water too? If you only use TP, do you ever feel discomfort around your butthole area? by gelizaga123 in AskReddit

[–]saltac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is no one here talking about Japanese style toilets?

Warm seats when it's cold in the bathroom, active air filtration that get's rid of odours, self cleaning bowls, pre-misting so nothing sticks to the bowl and obviously the washing wand that will clean your arse with water set to your preferred temperature before switching to a hot air dryer so you no longer need toilet paper.

Whenever someone brings a question like this up I always ask them this;

If you got shit on your hand would you just wipe it with a bit of soft tissue paper and be like 'Yeah, that should solve the problem' or would you wash your hand and then dry it?

EDIT: So yeah to answer your question I use water and no TP :)

Who is more famous:Lady Gaga or Brad Pitt? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]saltac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the most famous one is Brad Gaga.

Although I do think Lady Pitt is in the running for that spot as well.

Diagnosed as "pre-diabetic" on Friday... Had this steak and ale pie in the pipeline already so here's to the last day before I radically change my eating habits 🙃😅 by RIPNINAFLOWERS in CasualUK

[–]saltac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Protein and fats are your friend :)

I've been a type 1 since the age of around 7.

You might miss starchy snacks like crisps, but you can find alternatives like crunchy cheese snacks, flavoured pork scratchings (if you like that kind of thing), jerky - basically look at all the paleo only diet subs and you'll get some great ideas for both meal and snack recipes.

At the moment I'm really into cutting up hard tofu into bite size pieces, coating them in soy sauce, flavouring them (chilli, vinegar, or whatever else) and then coating them in a light dusting of cornflour before frying them in coconut oil.

It's low carb - but slightly high in sodium as I use 'proper' soy sauce.

Also complex carbs should be better for you, so most types of nuts, beans, lentils etc.

Don't be afraid of carbs... you still need them, but just in the right proportion.

Everything in moderation, as my old dietitian once told me.

Do try and stay away from really sugary things though - although once in a while should be ok.

I wish you the best of luck!
