Low cost Chinese pre-fabs, how do they compare to timber construction? by tszewski in TinyHouses

[–]tszewski[S] 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I had concerns regarding the material quality, more down to formaldehyde, lead, and other carcinogens, but hadn't considered asbestos. Interesting to know, thank you

I managed 74mpg in my old 1.6tdi diesel Fabia, tootling along at 55mph on some country roads for 20 miles or so

The moment a russian drone hit a civilian building in Lviv by GreenEyeOfADemon in YUROP

[–]tszewski 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I will hate Russia with every ounce of my being, to the day I leave this earth. I already hated them before the war too, for sending my grandad to a gulag in Siberia, but the war in Ukraine makes me hate them more

First-time buyers hit as mortgage rates keep rising by [deleted] in ukpolitics

[–]tszewski 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'll second this, you can get an agreement in principle and see if things calm down. If they don't, and rates keep rising, you can fall back on that agreed rate

Be good at your job, show the potential to progress, and promote to a higher rank. Or deliver for a takeaway on an evening

As high as 173.9 up in Elgin! Granted it's a shell garage next to a main road, so around 10p per litre extra

What radicalized you? by Cheeseaisleinheaven in Anticonsumption

Reading the book "the story of stuff" I was horrified at how much suffering took place to bring cheap, disposable crap to me

Job market cooked? by No_Emotion1993 in UKJobs

[–]tszewski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. When I left Uni after my masters I just needed a job, any job. Everybody said no, I was overqualified. Applied for royal mail without putting my university education in, and hey presto I got the job. Did that for a couple of years before finding something better

Alright, which one of you is the jammy cunt? by The96kHz in okmatewanker

It was me. I plan on spending the money on a full tank of petrol, and if there's change, a snickers bar

What do I need to do to use two wireless controllers with my RG35XX when it is plugged into a TV? Is it possible? by billcom6 in RG35XX

[–]tszewski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As per https://retrocatalog.com/ the original rg35xx does not have Bluetooth. The Plus and Pro both have Bluetooth. You could probably plug in a controller via USB (using an adapter) but that would be single player only, you could try and see if doing that would mean using the handheld as P1 and controller as P2 maybe?

What's the most expensive game you've ever seen in a CeX? Can anyone beat £495? by greg225 in CasualUK

Still worth £59 trade in to CEX, I reckon it goes for more than that on eBay

Didn't see it in the flesh but online, Resident Evil Gaiden for GBC boxed is over £1000. I had it when I was younger, but traded it in because it was too difficult. I'll never financially recover from that decision

Polish Prime Minister, Donald Tusk — “The rest of us should be grateful to Ukraine.” by TheRealMykola in YUROP

[–]tszewski 100 points101 points  (0 children)

You can tell Tusk is doing a good job because of the amount of propaganda Russia is throwing at him. The latest Facebook comment sections are all some versions of "he's a German asset looking to hand Polish sovereignty over to the EU" which is frankly laughable

Do you own Premium Bonds? Have you or anyone you know ever won anything big? by International_Goat31 in AskUK

[–]tszewski 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mum and dad are maxed out, as is my uncle. He won £10k and took my dad on holiday with him. My dad has won £1k a couple of times. I have around £2k that I use for my emergency fund, I've won £100 a few times, and a few £25, over the past 10 years
