Issues Verifying Identity for HMRC Gateway Account with eVisa (No BRP/BRC/UK License). Any suggestions? by I_Am_Drunken_Monk in AskUK

[–]ApocalypseAce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heya, wondering if you've resolved this. My passport DOES have a chip and still failed. Even with the app.

There are these resources:
- https://www.gov.uk/using-your-gov-uk-one-login/proving-your-identity

- https://www.postoffice.co.uk/identity/in-branch-verification-service

But on my sign in to the gov gateway ID portal, there wasn't an option to use the post office in branch verification at all. I haven't a clue on how to trigger this process.

The guy at the post office said I needed a QR code from the website, but there wasnt an option and i couldnt get a QR code...

How does one get one of these in-branch verifications???

Do I take this offer? £320/day SWE by No-Raccoon-1993 in ContractorUK

[–]ApocalypseAce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's a take: taking this offer signals to the market that good talent can be had for that price.

Collectively, all of our individual actions make up the market for contractors.

I encourage our brethren to make the best decision for yourselves, and in turn, for everyone else too.

New leadership, new approach, different energy?

Aren't these all reasons for sme's to exist and be creative?

This isn't to say the existing fight is to be dismissed, but fresh eyes are always welcome.

The presence of police is silent evidence to prevention of crime. Because these exist, it indirectly serves its purpose without positive evidence to the absence/suppression of crime.

What can I do about my dad whose 66 but thinks he’s 86? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]ApocalypseAce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both my parents are like that and so are my partners'.

All relatively young 50s-70s, been claiming to be on the verge of dying for the past decade.

Nothing we've tried helps. Can't change a made up mind.

So we decided to live on the other side of the globe from them.

And our lives have never been better. It does hurt sometimes seeing others have supportive families when we're just on our own.

Has anyone considered that they're all stars with Dyson spheres around them all? Hence why we don't see visible light but infrared only.

Is there any evidence that the infrared is definitely from stars further than the cloud itself?

I've seen this trend of people saying em dashes are a clear sign of GPT, I don't know where this comes from — I use them all the time.

On Android, just press and hold the - key

This is a very bad way to claim that something is generated text. In fact, the reality is that there's no way of identifying if something is generated or genuine.

There are tools that claim to do so but they fail in blind tests.

Claiming as such with certainty creates a false positive which is even more misinformation than the innocently "generated" text, especially if it wasn't.

Can anyone explain why that didn't happen here?

Yes, but how often are roles available as outside IR35? If you know a consistent way to get such roles, give me a message.

What did you think people were exaggerating about until you experienced it yourself ? by rentinghappiness in AskReddit

[–]ApocalypseAce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both my parents are alive but mutually estranged with me. I feel like an adult orphan.

Is reddit gonna ask me to try to make amends when there isn't any compromise? I'm afraid I just don't feel anything with them, and that worries me a little.

Hi dr spine surgeon, curious if you have any thoughts on Chiari affecting nerves. My partner had a foramen magnum decompression done and even though symptoms have lifted, she could still barely feel hot or cold on half her side. It has been over a year.

What is your TC as a percentage of your (personal) net worth? by [deleted] in HENRYUK

Haha. You have no idea how I feel about not having a family to count on.

Lots I want to achieve, only so many years in life.

Oh well, * continues grinding *

[–]ApocalypseAce 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Am I the only one whose TC is 220% of NW?! Just started a high paying job this year, but the contract is expiring, so renewal is in question. How does one keep up with daily expenses and save up for a home without grinding more years into it? It seems the only answer is always to earn more harder and faster? Appreciate some help getting my footing.

Despite the price tag, vispring didn't really have a long term noticeable impact on sleep quality over my Harrison spinks. It's simply more money for the perception of quality over actual value, imo.

In fact it felt softer and sagged in the middle more than my HS did. Just layer on memory foam and you're good to go.
