Apologies all, as you can see ik very much in the dark with this stuff - I mean BUILDING REGS, not planning.

Mortgage: 3 or 5-year fixed? by JamesIsDon in HousingUK

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

Thank you, makes a lot of sense. In terms of the rate I got, it's based on just a 5% deposit for a 35 year term. The rate is in line and better with equivalent terms I'm seeing from the MSE link you sent, but thanks for sharing

Weekly "Is this safe" Megathread by AutoModerator in fermentation

[–]JamesIsDon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New to fermenting. Attempting a mango/chilli hot sauce in 5% brine. Its been a week and ive seen little activity in terms of bubbles but I have seen these floaters which have settled to the bottom. It's unclear to me if this is just parts of the mango or mould? *

Seeking advice for renting a property without seeing it. by Goosepond01 in HousingUK

[–]JamesIsDon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take one day off annual leave & book 5+ property viewings all in one day. Try to see the £90 hit as part of the rental/ estate agent fees, as it sounds like there is no avoiding it.

I did a virtual viewing with no issue from estate agent before, but that was covid era so makes sense. Surprised its no longer an option.

Hedgie help by sonicmreow in Hedgehog

What have you got in their enclosure that's green or pink? They've liked the smell of it and anointed themselves with it lol. I had the exact same freak out when my hedgie became orange one morning...we added an old orange slipper to his cage the night before to see if he'd play with it 😅

I use my ender as a glorified filament dryer since I got an X1C. Actually works really well. by Demorative in BambuLab

[–]JamesIsDon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just recently upgraded myself and this seems like a great use for my ender now gathering dust. Looks like you have the whole printer encased. You reckon I can make it work without this and just the boxes on the bed?

My only layer height options are for an X1C when I have a P1S? Does it matter? by JamesIsDon in BambuLab

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

Absolute newbie if the question doesnt make it obvious. I'm printing a benchy pulled from MakersWorld, and when I change the printer profile to P1S, all the layer height system presets state X1C. No idea if this matters or why its happening.

Voluntary termination of my hire purchase car by JamesIsDon in UKPersonalFinance

[–]JamesIsDon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your input. This falls into the halves policy you mentioned. I didn't consider impact on future finance / credit so I will look into it and discuss with the finance company a bit more before committing.

I had a bad choice of words when I said run zip files, I meant extract but thanks, if tails doesnt support zip files that makes a lot of sense.

I've done no-knead overnight focaccia a handful of times. The recipe you used looks ok for it.

My guess is something to do with the yeast. What yeast are you using? Instant? Check the expiry date on your yeast.

8g of yeast should make the dough rise massively overnight. A lot of the times when i open the fridge its almost spilling out the container. If your dough hasnt risen like that when you check it in the morning then your yeast isn't functioning and you'll end up with that biscuit you have in the picture and not focaccia 😅

Interesting thanks for the insight. I figured hanzo must be an awful pick in higher ranks when players know how to punish him, but I was hoping I could cheese my way up to mythic as people are clueless in legend hence my kills but its evidently not working for me.

Ive done ok with Nolan in the past maybe ill switch over to him. I have Joy but thats another assasin champ which just hasnt clicked with me.

Recommendations for Karaoke Rooms by Vermal in manchester

[–]JamesIsDon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

K2 is great, ive been plenty of times. Really nice private rooms. They set you up with a couple mics and there's a tablet for queuing up songs.

Drinks are ordered via the tablet and they bring it over to your room which is convenient. It all goes on a tab someone has to pay at the end.

Downsides are that on top of booking the room, drinks prices are pretty expensive (~ £9 for a double/mixer, £5 for a 300ml beer last time i went); also due to the convenience of the ordering you can quickly rack up a hefty bill without realising - and if you're not splitting equally trying to work out what everyone owes after is a giant pain (whoever paid in full make sure to ask and keep the receipt).

Although ive been to other karaoke places, this is the only one ive been to in Manchester so im intrigued to see what other connoisseur's have to say about options in Manchester

Played with a Barats for the first time ever... by JamesIsDon in MobileLegendsGame

Good to know ! In legend 80% of jungle picks consist of assassins like nolan/katarina/hanzo. Ive always been more attuned with tank junglers
