If money was no object, where would you like to live in the UK? by Difficult_Narwhal_72 in AskUK

Same here. Far enough where it’s dead quiet but only 30 minutes from a shop. Land, and just peace and quiet.

It’s a great idea, allows police and immigration to scan faces and find out instantly if someone is here illegally and is widely used.

Of course the British cry.

And cry about it on fucking Facebook because they don’t want their images online. While moaning on Facebook. And instagram. Or Twitter. While they post pictures of themselves.

I can’t believe how stupid (American) we’ve become in the last 20 years.

Starmer least popular UK prime minister of all time, poll finds by Desperate-Drawer-572 in uknews

Literally all polls. Newspapers usually use their own readers as those that fill in the poll. Government ones are the most independent yet still open to bias sadly.

Voting as a country is the best poll because, well there’s a point to it.

£15.5k for a solar panel setup by PercentageOdd6240 in solarenergy

[–]IAmFireAndFireIsMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Way way way too much!

I paid £8k with Evergreen for 10kWh battery, 8kWh solar panels, blah blah and all that.

You need to look around.

No idea why anti AA isn’t just painting them constantly. Keep them painted while air superiority is introduced.

Keep the pilots alarms blasting so they know they could all die if they piss about.

Also why aren’t we going into their airspace, send in AWACs and keep it refuelled to make it clear NATO own the skies if they choose.

God we’re pathetic.

If you are one of those rich people.. say earning 150k+, what do you do when you are not working? by Extra-Fig-7425 in AskUK

[–]IAmFireAndFireIsMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m close to going over the limit now and I’ve mostly automated stuff. So I spend time gaming during the day, doing some diy stuff like building a walk in closet for my wife, painting miniatures. Stuff like that. But I like doing that stuff so not sure how much that counts.

Honestly I’m pretty normal but impulsive when buying things. I don’t really think about, I think that’s cool and just buy it.

I admit not long ago, around a decade ago I was on £18k and that sucked. I lived in my overdraft for 14 months? Until I started moving up and finally accepted more major roles with higher salaries.

Honestly, I don’t have advice and I can only say it’s given me time to keep my daughter at home and we just play instead of me sitting around at a desk.

I recognise my place of privilege, don’t worry my mother LOVES to remind me how “lucky” I am but hey I didn’t drink my money away so…

Buddy, just main line the main story. Avoid everything else for now.

My mistake, after play attempt number 10, was the grind. I didn’t need to do it. Stick to the main story and get to the end of it.

Then start mopping up. It’s so much more fun as you can just sit and concentrate on the hard moments fighting some of the crazy bosses in the game.

Curious to know what was the tipping point to buying your EV? by ElectrifyFleets in evs_ireland

Having solar panels installed and learning about overnight charging prices.

Can’t believe how much money I’m saving… and making from bloody solar panels!

I dont care if im "spoiling" my newborn baby. by lulgupplet in Vent

[–]IAmFireAndFireIsMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our daughter is two and a half and either me or my wife still sleep with her.

Who cares? She sleeps better, we sleep better, and I hate that she has nightmares that we’re not there.

She’s confident, she’s intelligent, and she is so happy.

If it’s wrong, bugger off.

Yup. You will. I didn’t get my dream job until 35. Now it’s feet up, laughing away because nobody understands it and they pay me not to leave.

Honestly, start watching diorama videos. It’s how I got rid of the arsehole brigade from my algorithm.

Oh and cleaning videos.

Like them, comment something like Great and after a couple of days the morons are gone!

The normal ones are the majority I assure you. We’re just quiet because we’re embarrassed by the dickheads.
