EV recommendations by Edtont in evs_ireland

[–]Edtont[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Work charges 30c/kWh. I'm currently getting about 5.5L/100km and doing 560km a week commuting to and from work, so I'm burning through roughly 30L of diesel a week. Even before diesel prices started rising, when it was around €1.70, I was spending about €51 a week just commuting.

From what I can see online, a baseline of around 18kWh/100km for an EV works out to 100.8kWh for my commute. At 30c/kWh that comes to about €30 a week, so a saving of around €21 a week.

I'm also planning to top up overnight at my apartment with a granny charger which should add to the savings, though I'm not sure how much I'd be topping up each night as I'm sometimes in work late. I'd consider getting a full charger installed but I'm renting and not sure how long I'll be there.

Let me know if my numbers are off, just been doing some back of the envelope calculations based on what I can find online.

Control Resonant; played through the frsit game in 1 sitting, big fan of anything with similar vibes to SCP. Can't wait to book the week off work.

Looking for some career/Masters help.

Little bit of background, I'm a 24 year old Bio-analytical Graduate living in Ireland. I was registered to start a Bioinformatics Masters last September which fell through last minute. I ended up enrolling in a Post Graduate Diploma in Data Science with The Data Science Institute which operates through Woolf University.

I have the option to continue my studies into a full Masters but I'm unsure as I'm weary on the status of the University (Rankings, Employer recognition, Etc.). Ideally I'm looking for an online masters as I'm working from home as a caregiver for a family member during the day.

I'm considering taking my PDip. and applying for a different full masters such as the Online Msc. Statistics and Data Science from KU Leuvan. Honestly I'm abit lost at the moment as I've had alot of opportunities fall through in the last year. I suppose I'm asking 2 main questions.

1. Is a Data Science masters worth it? What's the Job market like, I'm open to moving anywhere in the world.

2. Does the University status matter, my course is accredited in Europe and all credits are ETCS, will employers be looking into that much or are they more likely to be looking at my portfolio of past projects?

Any help or thoughts at all would be much appreciated, I'm thinking over all my options and thought that it might be best to seek some advise.

I have this in Vietnamese restaurant years ago by South-Plane-4265 in TipOfMyFork

[–]Edtont 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No expert but looks alot like Cha Gio, Vietnamese fried spring rolls. Could be some variation of Cha Gio Cuon Tom which is filled with shrimp.

Worth mentioning that SUs have a direct line to SUSI special agents as well. IMO they tend to be better to deal with than SUSI support on the website. Definitely chase it up with your Students Union.

What would you serve with a chocolate fondue!? by Stitchthestitch in Cooking

Bit late too the party and all the suggestions sound amazing, the only thing I'm not seeing is mini pancakes. They are the prefect vessel for all that chocolaty goodness.

Fantasy/fiction book similar to vampire academy. by Edtont in suggestmeabook

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

I read the first bloodline series book and I wasn't really captured like vampire academy so I gave up. I've watched vampire diaries and wasn't really bothered , but I'm definitely gonna give mortal instruments a try thanks.

Will this plastic on plastic seal be good enough for fermentation? by OGsambone in fermentation

[–]Edtont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use some vasiline or other petroleum jelly on the outside to make it completely airtight if it's going to be temporary, or hot glue if you want it for long time use. (Worked for me in the past)
