Victory at last. Went poking around a little village today and wandered into an old bookshop, not expecting much I asked about science and engineering and, as expected, did not get much. Then nestled among woodworking books was a copy of machinery's handbook

Everything else in there was hideously overpriced so I was dreading this. Nope no engineering any more strikes again and leads to the thing being £8, I just checked completed listings and it some lucky bastards got lower but most do not. 1946 is a bit early really and I will continue looking too but it is not like geometry or short hand maths changes and that is what I mainly wanted it for.

Also another choice book for people hunting such things

£5 it was.

Thanks as I have heard of them before. Now another place for my non existent money to go
God I know the feeling. If I didn't sell a N3DS on here, I'd have 30p to my name right now (well, 30p left in my overdraft... I guess it's actually -£749.70...)

You sold an old plasma TV for $200 in 2016? And I thought I knew some people that can turn mud into gold. I am not sure I would pay $30 for one these days, much less an old one.

Samsung 60" UHD 4K Smart TV; love this TV. Got it 2 days ago, no complaints as of now! Sold old one for $200 (almost 10 year old plasma TV, was such a good TV)

Ordered and ate pizza. But the special thing this time was, that the guys at dominoes played it cunning.
I ordered a customized margarita (toppings) and a red pasta. What I got was a plain margarita and a "calzone", and I still payed for the stuff I ordered. And so as I called them back and shit, I got to keep the stuff and get a pizza free, but no red pasta, they said they'd refund the difference from the red pasta and the calzone, but that's like $0.2, so I gave that as a tip to the driver for his second coming. ;O;

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
