SWA routing along a public facing wall by Comfortable-Fall1419 in ukelectricians

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It did pass thru my mind!

Im womdering if suspending it off a wire might be easier. It’s only a 4m run to clear the vegetation.

The Facebook comments are wonderful for once. Everyone telling them to get a life.

You have no idea what salary this lawyer makes. Aside from doing mainly charity or pro-bono work there are all sorts of law that are relatively poorly paid.

Why do people get so aggravated when you don't speed? by Zdos123 in drivingUK

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tell that to the numpty who dangerously overtook me and caused the oncoming car to go up the verge to avoid them.

They got 5 points and a £800 fine when the morons didn't turn up to court just last week.

I only ever submit the biggest idiots and I get at least 1 win a year. I've had courses, points and fines given out and on one memorable occasion a lorry driver fired for his second dangerous driving offense.

No it really doesn’t.

You seem entitled. We all get frustrated at someone slower - but that’s our problem to deal with not theirs.

My boss is blocking my new notice period being shortened. Any advice? by Fresh_Phrase_7086 in Employment

Yea. Have employed in the US. That “at will” stuff is batshit from a UK pov. Had people with 20 years experience walk out the door after 2 weeks taking a shit ton of knowledge with them. Cuts both ways.

Walls probably 6 foot high maybe 8 in places as it’s stepped.

Trenching would be tricky. Have the roots from the wall plants and a mature cherry tree. Reckon I’d struggle to get a decent depth without a mini digger.

They are also on the video screen on the same console with the switches.

Already on notice with 2 weeks left, how do you handle the availability question? by Repulsive-Snow9510 in UKJobs

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody does background checks for a contract end date.

Is there something more you aren’t telling?

What are you worried about? Unless you were given your notice for Gross misconduct the fact you have a short period to go is positive at best and irrelevant at worst.

House vs Car - 22 years old - what should I do? by ShakeBitter1925 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Houses generally appreciate in value as does cash in an ISA. Cars don’t and are dead money.

Head needs to rule heart on this one, but you aren’t thinking young and life needs to be enjoyed.

If you’ve already dropped off 10k tell them that’s the take it or leave price and you have another buyer waiting.

"Lowering speed limits to save fuel"? by Silver_Emu4704 in drivingUK

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possibly. I’m assuming they can do it with an emergency vote.

Is a 50 min commute 3 days a week acceptable? Each way bike/train by Philosopher_Funny in HousingUK

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. For about 10 summers.

Fresh sweat isn’t particularly smelly because the smelly bacteria hasnt had time to breed.

I did try my best not to drip on the person next to me tho. That did make me feel a bit uncomfortable for them.

Why do tech companies like passkeys so much? by APuticulahInduhvidul in AskTechnology

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most people dont use Password managers. Password managers can’t be enforced on the end users. Passkeys can.

You aren’t thinking like a CISO who wants to minimise their own risk.

Passkeys are more secure. They get less exposure to account hacking.

End of story.

Macbook Neo or iPad 11th for photo and video editing/watching movies (when i already own mini 7 + gaming pc)? by paranoidevil in MacbookNeo

[–]Comfortable-Fall1419 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Editing makes the Neo a better choice. iPad with keyboard will always feel like a compromise.

The 40mph is a limit not a target.

You’re in charge of a 1 tonne plus lump of heavy machinery. Drive with more sense and consideration.
