    Change to MM access after 1st January 2024

    So you've just confirmed what I said, OCuK doesn't care about readers as much as posters. This is fine with me. Edit: You seem encouraging that people shouldn't register; there's benefits to both readers and OCuK if folks do register regardless of what they do, but, you know lets be welcoming...

    Change to MM access after 1st January 2024

    I do disagree, but, it is what it is. Communities are all about balance. Some post, some like to read. Its fine if posting is deemed more important but it also does set a tone of "this person is more important than the other". Just my opinion.

    Change to MM access after 1st January 2024

    It's a shame really, as I am a long term lurker here and I don't post very much but I have used MM to buy and sometimes sell over the years. It is a benefit, but, the way I see it is that by using that its helping the community. I'd rather buy and sell with folks here than on other sites. No...

    Nothing as of yet @Feek. Awaiting car repairs. Front drivers side panel needs replacing.

    The day finally came and I've had a bump

    Theres a few comments about road markings. I didn’t see any, the traffic was heavy. Not saying they’re not there, not justifying anything I did but sharing a google street view doesn’t compare we my experience. There was no indication that I couldn’t continue in the left lane to the next exit...

    Thanks for the replies, I assume “admiral” being a major car insurer. Will see what happens.

    Honestly not sure, can’t hear indicating in the video so I assume not.

    15+ years, without any incidents. https://youtu.be/mLq-4P-K6O4 Who's at fault?

    Discord Volume - Razer Headset

    Thanks, have checked that. Discord via chrome is fine. Discord using a different headset is fine. It's like my razer headset (Kraken pro) is purposefully reducing Discord. I've reinstalled windows and its the same. Completely at a loss.

    Discord Volume - Razer Headset

    Something recently has been playing havoc with the audio level of Discord. The volume of conversations is terribly low. I have disabled all sound "improvements" within synapse. I have reset audio in discord. I have reset audio balances within windows sound mixer. I have disabled the windows...

    *** Car Wash / Valet / Detailing Thread ***

    I used to be very much into "amatuer" detailing. These days I just use autoglym polar blast, wash and then seal. It provides get results for very litte effort with the pressure washer, chemicals doing all the hardwork.

    "Sys Admins" - Deployed ad-blocking on your networks?

    Someone had the great idea of deploying Adblock in my company; saying it's for "security". We run a very tight browsing experience with a cloud proxy solution that includes blocking malicous domains and sinarios such as domain fronting. Now adblocking is getting it the way its breaking our...

    The Last of Us (HBO, from Creator of Chernobyl) - No game spoilers please

    The wife and I both thought episode 3 was the best so far. Not played the game, been largely unimpressed with the show. Thought episode 3 was some of the best TV I’ve seen in a while.

    Is Internet speed now oversold?

    I have SSDs that provide GB/sec of bandwidth, god knows how many IOPs I could drive in the house, I have more CPU cores that I know what to do with. Why would I want to wait for a download? Also, buying the upper packages often means you get a higher low end speed should you face congestion -...

    pfSense in company environment

    Whilst I'll add it really depends upon your own needs but I've personally found VyOS to be a lot more friendly with hardware not just from compatibility but also to performance. FreeBSD driver support can mean you need to choose hardware wisely - its not quite as plug and play as some folks tend...

    Today is the 20th anniversary of the Big Nuke - OcUK are giving away a Ducky One 3 keyboard

    11-04-2012 I’m not feeling too lucky ———- I’ve been around for yonks, only what feels like recently used this alias. I was on here before with another, but, something far more inappropriate.

    Location of FTTP ONT

    I had mine installed in the garage; they had to dig a new trench so I got it to go exactly where I wanted. From what I've been told they'll run fibre to an outside junction box, then up to 20m run from there to the ONT.
