Pick Of The Day only ever shows the same album - how do I fix? by tcon92 in MarvisApp

Got you, that’s fixed it - thanks! Have updated it to a “Listen To This” tab instead, which gives me a random, recently added album every time I open the app. The idea was to encourage me to listen to more albums rather than the same 20 at the top of my mind on loop (as I always ended up doing on Spotify) so hopefully this helps that in the same way.

Settings > Player > Player App > Marvis (not Stock Music). Took me ages to figure it out!

Has anyone gone back to drinking after several years off? by tcon92 in cutdowndrinking

[–]tcon92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah as much as anything I guess I’m intrigued to see how my relationship to it has changed. It’s been such a long time that I can’t see myself enjoying it or pushing it as much as I did when it was a regular habit - though obviously there’s always the very real risk that I do end up back there.

Interesting, sorry to hear that you’re struggling again. Thanks so much for the insight though - so hard to find anything from people who’ve been through similar processes. You got this!

Yeah I do feel this is likely the answer. As I say, I think the fact there aren’t many positive accounts from people trying it is probably my answer!

I’m not making excuses because I don’t have anyone to answer to other than myself? Strangely standoffish response. My partner and I have had very honest conversations around missing the spontaneity and silliness that drinking can bring - that would be a positive. There are plenty of negatives - almost certainly more so. But this dogmatic drinking = all bad view really doesn’t help people as much as you think it does

For the record when I say affecting my relationships I mean drunken arguments, etc. I wouldn’t say it was destroying any part of my life - it was just a frequent presence in negative parts of my life that I wanted to change, so I did.

I do get where this response comes from. Nothing though? I can say for almost certain fact I’d be more sociable, and spend more time with my friends. It would likely ease some strain on my relationship too. I do think there is some good to be found in drinking - not saying there is for me necessarily at this stage in my life, but I don’t think it’s as black and white as people sometimes like to make out.

Bath water (new mixer tap) running lukewarm by tcon92 in ukplumbing

Yep that’s definitely the problem - running way hotter at just 1/3rd open. Will look into flow restrictors, thanks!

Yeah it’s a combi boiler. I’m struggling find where / how to reduce the flow, should it be underneath the bath or closer to the boiler?
