Teapot replacement lid appreciation by RamdomSlaphead in c/casualuk@feddit.uk
[-] RamdomSlaphead@feddit.uk 7 points 8 months ago

I broke the lid from my wedding gift teapot (20+ years old). Denby didn't do the exact model any more, but gave me a good enough replacement, free!

Won't help your predicament, but just wanted to shout out denby for awesome customer service!

PSA: The Docker Snap package on Ubuntu sucks. by RamdomSlaphead in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[-] RamdomSlaphead@feddit.uk 18 points 9 months ago

This year I finally snapped (pun intended!), and moved to debian 12 on the desktop (after starting on Ubuntu 6.06). It's so familiar, but somehow more straight forward. Things "just work", as opposed to the constant niggles I had with Ubuntu.

There's a couple of vocal people trying to get quackhouse.uk as it's replacement, but it's down at the moment. And a crap name, imo.

Sunak does not rule out general election if Lords block Rwanda plan by RamdomSlaphead in c/uk_politics@feddit.uk

“We’re determined to get this through as quickly as possible. So the real question is: is the Labour Party going to stand in the way and stop this from happening, or are they going to work with us and support this Bill so we can get it through as quickly as possible?"

Is this some sort of weird 3d chess thing that I'm too dumb to understand? " labour won't back our batshit plan, so we'll teach them a lesson, and call an election. Which they'll win. And then they won't enact our batshit plan. "

Nope, I don't get it at all.

What is Shizuku, and what can you do with it on your Android device? by RamdomSlaphead in c/android@lemmy.world
[-] RamdomSlaphead@feddit.uk 56 points 1 year ago

Saved you a click: "In a nutshell, if an app needs special permissions that can only be granted through ADB (or with root), you can just use Shizuku to grant them right from your Android device."

Steve Borthwick queries World Rugby high-hits approach (www.bbc.co.uk)

"I also note there was a tremendous amount of comment from World Rugby about Owen Farrell over a couple of weeks during our preparation for this tournament, a situation that went on and on, and there were lots of comments from World Rugby."

This is the 2nd or 3rd time he's whinged about the time taken over Farrell's card. Without seemingly realising that if he / they had shut up and accepted the decision at the time, it would have blown over quickly.

After the furore over Bairstow's run out in the Ashes, is this one "great awareness" as the BBC says (in the body, the headline seems to have been changed!), or poor sportsmanship?

A bit of a long read, and nothing to really surpise anyone here, but it's good to give some history to the current shitshow

Owen Farrel Banned for Four games by RamdomSlaphead in c/rugby@sh.itjust.works

Seems sensible. Now please can Borthwick, and everyone else in the England camp just accept it, and move on. Or will we have another week of "anyone who knows him, knows he's not a dirty player" and other empty nonsense?

Got to give Bristol credit here - yes, it's likely to be 2nd teams that run out for this, but they're making a good event of Rugby in Bristol - getting games against the Springboks, Barbars, and now the Crusaders. A great way to get the "casual" fans in, as opposed to another match against Sale in a noddy cup (for example, no disrespect to Sale, it's just that Bris seem to play them 10 times a season!).

Can't say I've ever struggled with normal Cattle grids on my bike - I suppose in the rain they can be a bit sketchy, but go faster, and it's more stable!
