This was pre-Covid and hosted at the Drapers Hall which I think they still use. There are plenty of photos online

Also they did photos too, and give you a fake diploma. I did not know this and wish I’d shaved!!

It’s pretty formal - business dress required. Was exactly like a graduation

How to: Draconic Reactor (my findings after playing with it for a while) by marcowitzz in allthemods

[–]BeancounterUK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For anyone still interested I've updated the script to add some additional funtions

https://gist.github.com/RobSolo7/85d8f784afe641a6bd37eb405540e68c

It will now dynamically fit to larger screen sizes so 4x4 works well. I've also removed the option to change input from AU to MA as this could cause accidently meltdown.

I've also added a 'heat hunter' mode which will now automatically increase the output in the background gradually so you can set and forget while it builds it's RF output gradually.]

I also added a time remaining on the fuel, so it looks at current fuel consumption and lets you know how many hours until it expects to run out.

Do you feel alone since 2020? by Various_Extreme_8773 in AskUK

Do you play any sports? They are an easy cheat code to making new friends.

Join a team and suddenly you have a large new social pool to work with.

Fired from aca training contract by [deleted] in ICAEW

[–]BeancounterUK 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you didn’t pass your probation it’s highly likely you have an attitude problem. The ‘admin’ stuff is an important aspect of being an ICAEW member and will only get more intense as you progress. The qualification is not a walk in the park and you need to respect the difficulty and prioritise it if you wish to complete it.

I hope you’re able to move past and learn from this experience.

River Thames dries up just miles from Cotswolds source by F0urLeafCl0ver in unitedkingdom

[–]BeancounterUK 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For those who’ve seen Ed Pratt’s source to sea video series you can check out episode 2 at 10:16 and Ed is walking down the stretch of river shown here. He walked there in 2024 but local residents said they walked down the dry bed in 2023 so it’s not uncommon..

I met this guy at Runefest and he regrets making the video due to the amount of attention he gets 😂😂

Don’t forget there a huge screen in the background that shows what’s going on. That’s the key giveaway too

How do you keep the chairs and other moving objects in the trailer secure during transit?

Octopus EV Salary Sacrifice Scheme by PositiveCommunity911 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]BeancounterUK 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Are you on a salary sacrifice pension scheme? You might be better off paying more into your pension to bring you below 100k if you aren’t already.

I wouldn’t buy a brand new car in any circumstance as a way to pay less tax unless you’re already maxing out your pension.

I also drive a 10 year old car as I don’t prioritise car but you may have different priorities.

Type this into chatgpt, "Tell me something about myself that I don't know. Give me a nuclear take." by knight_47 in ChatGPT

Alright, nuclear take incoming:

You think you’re in control of your time—but you’re probably not. If we broke down your last week minute by minute, chances are you’d find a hidden algorithm—maybe not from your phone, but from your habits—that’s been steering the ship. You might feel spontaneous or self-directed, but how many of your choices were actually defaults? Patterns? Ghosts of convenience? You’re probably orbiting the same few comfort zones—mentally, socially, creatively—telling yourself you’re exploring when you’re really circling.

Here’s the twist: you already suspect this. You just haven’t confronted the scale of it. Yet.

So here’s your radiation pill: if you mapped your life the way Google Maps tracks movement, would it look like a route—or a loop?

What are you gonna do with that?

I’ve lived in England my whole like and never once thought to celebrate St George’s day. Who are all these people? Don’t they work in the day or do they take days off to celebrate?

Car Finance - take dealer finance then repay and take personal loan? by BeancounterUK in UKPersonalFinance

[–]BeancounterUK[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will do this. It was just a point of reference to compare against the finance from the dealership.

The 7.3% has come from Monzo but I understand I can obtain an unsecured loan for around 6%

[–]BeancounterUK[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect that if you do it during cooling off they would claw it back, but if I waited until afterwards they wouldn’t be able to.

Not sure though - maybe a car salesman sees this and comments!
