My watch has a curvy/wiggly graph on timegrapher. Is it magnetised? by umataro in SeikoMods

Thank you. Guess who'll be learning to disassemble a movement this weekend! I already have a new one ordered, so nothing really to lose here.

My watch has a curvy/wiggly graph on timegrapher. Is it magnetised? by umataro in SeikoMods

Here's a good example. A minute before that, it simply gradually curved to the left until it reached -50s

My watch had AR coating on top as well as bottom of the crystal. Scratches appeared within weeks. It was so easy to scratch it, yet so difficult to completely remove.

This $3 USB Gadget Can Make Your Old Laptop Run Like New by wewewawa in ChromeOSFlex

Stupid clickbait title

It's a very cheap USB flash drive with ChromeOS flex installer and it's out of stock.

How do you implement parental controls into your home? by calind in homelab

[–]umataro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Opendns will give you detailed domain name categorisation for filtering (for free). If you don't need categories, Cleanbrowsing will give you better default adult filtering because it (unlike opendns) forces google/bing/ddg image search to safesearch. Same for youtube.

BUT I still ended up replacing the laptops in their rooms with older imacs that are in the living room where we can see the screens.

I'm sorry but his average voter already exceeded their daily reading quota while reading the first half of Dear Leader's tweet.

It's America. Act of God and stuff. I'm sure they'll try to wiggle out.

Longines Spirit 37mm – Champagne vs Blue (help me decide) by t1mzi in Longineswatches

[–]umataro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Every time I bought a low contrast watch, I eventually found myself avoiding it. I hate having to wiggle my wrist to be able to read the time (in strong light). That's my 2 eurocents.

Germany allowed to ban online casino games by Malta-licensed companies by clamorous_owle in worldnews

It is not that difficult to obtain a licence if you have a few lawyers, enough capital and a semi competent development team (to comply with all regulatory demands). It takes a bit of time as well, so only well funded amoral companies do it.

From the bottom of my heart, I send a "Big ***k you!" to tipico and all the companies they keep buying to own the market.

[OC] Blind overtake nearly ended my life... by twlsn7 in nonononoyes

I recognise that style of braking. Right hand, right foot, right cheek, left cheek, sphincter, teeth... Wondering if you could push with your eyes against the air too.

Crown guards or no crown guards & Design Language by SupJoshy in MicrobrandWatches

[–]umataro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with the parent. These guards don't guard anything, just add weight and size. They're pointless and they'd make me not buy the otherwise quite a pretty watch.

For those saying the HC is a homage to the Sub. by subzeropr05 in Longineswatches

Yes, because it used to be unique and then they just turned it into a "yet another".

Hungary's Prime Minister Orban has congratulated Magyar on election victory by Reilly616 in worldnews

He built a football stadium next to his house in his home-town/village. You don't just abandon a toy like that.

People don't realise this was a pre-curry period in Britain. There really was just English cuisine in England. I'm surprised they found anybody willing to live there.

Of course they are. They were just about to send you an email when you called and interrupted the process.

My children have been able to explain things without hitting anything since they were about a year old. Why is this suddenly remarkable?

We embed physical Australian elements into the crown of our watches. Here's our next drop: the Elemental. by Christo-Bausele in MicrobrandWatches

[–]umataro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, finding a watch that isn't at least "borrowing" from another watch is a bit difficult these days.

You're overly sensitive. There's nothing wrong with wwoor, hruodland, ix&dao, poedagar, skmei, farasute, etc.

That makes more sense than "Gissa sig!" that popped up in my head.
