Well, I would say not looking at my instruments enough! Without realising, I would let my nose drift up when I was turning and I got extremely close to stalling. I'm extremely happy with my current flight sims and VR combo. It gives me

Same here. I had lots of experience playing flight sims, but in reality I taught myself a load of bad habits... I had two scary situations where I didn't realise I was about to stall relatively low to the ground. Also, combined with al

I used to fly gliders although I never did any long flights, but there used to be a tube that you would wear and urinate into and it would travel out the bottom of the glider.

My dad had an office PC that I secretly put a sound card and graphics card in. He would have gone mad if he knew I had done that to his work machine! I had very little idea what I was doing, but firing up Carmageddon 2 and having it run but

Absolutely. My DLSR almost never comes out which is a shame, but even on special trips I don't want to lug an extra camera around and have to worry about damaging that, so my phone has been my primary camera for 10+ years.

Near to where I live, there are the remnants of test concrete walls that were used to assess the best way to blow them up. Apparently people snuck over, took some samples of the concrete to recreate how it was made, and then constructed lot

Interestingly, I've noticed that when using my AirPods, it can change the sound of my tinnitus and make it sound like nothing I've ever heard. Its more of a fluttery sound.

Its the same for me. Its always been there. I've also done a lot of activities over my life that make it worse, like playing the drums, attending very loud electronic music parties, and motorcycling without earplugs. It's just a l

I completely agree. A bag of pretty standard food and supplies can cost £50.

Music production. There is always something new to learn or play with. It can be expensive but its so rewarding to me.

Agree with this. Also, the cost of the 24/7 cloud sub jumped up wildly. The event recording always misses the first crucial few seconds off of what ever caused the event to be recorded so they are next to useless. As soon as I have bud

I use it on Mac but I'm really excited to see how much better it is, as I think its really poor compared to its competitors.

I would have loved something like this that helped ease the boredom of commuting. I could imagine actually looking forward to getting on the train and interacting with fellow passengers in the bar rather than just seeing the same people for

Thanks for this recommendation. It sounds like something I'd be interested in and I just found the audiobook for free as part of my Audible membership.

Perfectly normal I'm afraid. My 3 year old managed to go the entire summer without a cold which was great progress. As soon as the weather changed, she got sick again.

I'm going through the audio book and it is far easier to understand than the printed version. I can only imagine how tough some of the bits are where you suddenly jump from first-person to narrator. I'm not sure if I am enjoying i

My company did this but for the purpose of working out how to make the most of our shrinking office space. Then the pandemic came along and solved the issue for the business as we work from home 4 days a week now.

It sounds female to me, but I like it. It sounds like something out of a ships computer in a sci-fi film.

I schedule in 5 mins when my alarm goes off to read reddit. For me, doing this extremely useful as my brain spins up and I feel like I do not want to go back to sleep.

I've found that my perfect balance is just 30 mins a night, 4 nights a week. Its a short enough session that I can fit it in without resenting having to do it and miss out on family stuff. I normally go into the session thinking that I

You are very lucky like my girlfriend in that respect. She cleans her teeth twice a day and does minimal care and has one minor filling which was done a couple of years ago. I have always spent a long time cleaning and flossing my teeth and

I think it used to be very common 10 years ago. A typical front end dev would do the graphics, HTML and CSS (or tables before CSS was popular).

I am in the UK and have my user profile always set to the USA. It has been this way pretty much since I joined in 2013. I have not been blocked yet. My girlfriends user profile jumped between USA and UK all the time and was blocked when the
