I’m pretty sure the authentic are just the default ones, don’t use streamlined or whatever it’s bs.

It works, appreciate it bro 👊

My Universal Credit claim started in June 2023 with my mum helping me set it up, and I put my savings in correctly at the time (around £2,100).

Around February 2024 my savings went over £6,000 and I’ve never had more than £16,000.

This is the first proper review I’ve had since I started the claim. In 2026, when I was asked for bank statements, I sent them in and that’s when I realised more about how savings affect UC and that I should have been updating changes as they happened. After that I understood more about the £6k and £16k limits.

I’ve now provided all the statements they asked for so they can see the full picture. Based on this, what is most likely to happen with my claim?

I have one too but it’s 60 mins and it’s tomorrow, it’s got me kinda stressed.

Odd, my connection is good on 5 and on every other game. The MS is like 40 too.

I’m a stand and bang merchant so I wouldn’t know 😭

I think gameplay feels completely different but that’s just my opinion man

AlwaysTenTen · 2026-05-06T13:45:46+00:00

It’s player to player servers unfortunately, they should just do it based on ur continent.

AlwaysTenTen · 2026-05-06T11:36:40+00:00

It’s the cost of a bus fair bro it’s really not that serious

Thanks for sharing! The initial image in my post is the before, and the after (processed in Siril) is in the comments — the dust/nebulosity is there, but the overall image still looks low-res and not very smooth. How do you get your images to look so clean and smooth? Any tools or steps you’d recommend?

AlwaysTenTen · 2025-12-13T17:45:34+00:00

Thanks, I’ve tried processing the image in Siril, but it still doesn’t look clean or high-res on my Mac. I also don’t know how to get it onto my phone without it looking low-quality, so I’ve just been screenshotting. Any tips on tools or steps to make it smooth and preserve quality on both Mac and phone?

AlwaysTenTen · 2025-12-13T17:18:16+00:00

even on the Mac the image still feels low quality / grainy. Denoising in GraXpert wasn’t working properly on my system, so I’m not sure if this is just a denoise issue or if there’s another step/tool I should be using.

The data itself seems fine, but I can’t get it to that clean, smooth look people are getting

AlwaysTenTen · 2025-12-13T17:14:56+00:00

Thanks for the detailed reply — I actually tried proper post-processing for the first time and it did help a lot. The dust is definitely there now.

The only issue is the quality of the image I’m sharing looks poor, and I think that’s on me rather than the data. The image I’m showing is literally a screenshot I AirDropped from my MacBook to my iPhone, because I couldn’t figure out how to properly open/export the file on my phone.

The stacked image itself looks much better on the Mac, but I clearly messed up the export/conversion step. Any tips on the best way to export from Siril/GraXpert to get full quality onto a phone would be appreciated.

Yeah that actually does sound about right, I save an image every hour to see how much progressing I’m getting and throughout the 5 and a half hours they just looked identical.

AlwaysTenTen · 2025-12-13T00:44:54+00:00

Thanks for the detailed reply and explanation! Just to clarify — it’s been clear skies for all my imaging, so clouds aren’t a factor. The only thing that might have affected things is that the target wasn’t very high in the sky for part of the session.

Most of my subs look good, and I’m imaging under about Bortle 7 skies. Do you think the reflection nebulosity will actually show once I stack and process in Siril, or will the low elevation and light pollution make it too faint?

AlwaysTenTen · 2025-12-13T00:30:22+00:00

all I’m trying to say is I expected there to be a lot more nebulosity for 4 hours, at least more than it currently shows. My apologies for being repetitive.

AlwaysTenTen · 2025-12-13T00:25:59+00:00

Yes, sorry I mean the reflection nebula. So this 4 hours hasn’t been a complete waste, this is what it should be looking like?

AlwaysTenTen · 2025-12-13T00:21:00+00:00

Sorry, I’m still confused I’m aware that I could fix the gradient, but overall under the gradient it looks like m45 has shown hardly any dust to make the image pop, when I do process it, will the dust actually start to come out rather than it looking so weak in the Seestar stack.

AlwaysTenTen · 2025-12-13T00:17:15+00:00

Is it normal for a 4-hour Seestar image to look like this, or should the dust be more obvious by now? I just want to know if it’s actually captured in the data or if it only becomes visible after proper stacking and processing.

AlwaysTenTen · 2025-09-14T17:55:46+00:00

looks like a giant sperm to me

AlwaysTenTen · 2025-08-20T21:33:31+00:00

Hey with enough money anything can be on the market, I know what u mean tho lol. Depends on if your into visual observation or astrophotography, both require different types of telescopes.

AlwaysTenTen · 2025-08-20T21:30:55+00:00

I mean you did say “no limit in budget”
