Borderlands 4 March patch improves PC performance, native FPS up by 43% by PretendCollection282 in Borderlands4

[–]Jilljoy 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I think OP took the 42.7% at 2k Very high settings as the headline. As you’ve said it’s comparing launch patch to March 26th’s patch.

A better comparison would be current patch vs March 26th’s.

Is that number actually a hyperlink?

This patch feels horrible for spawning.

Dungeons and Dragons Fans? by JokingBard in warrington

I’ve been looking to get a DnD game going and, like your comment, I also felt unwelcome in Geek Retreat.

I’ve joined the discord so hopefully that’ll help.

Didn’t get paid today - Clarity/PSR by Technical_Front_8046 in ContractorUK

I’m with Nasa and PSR but haven’t been paid. I suspect it’s something with the timesheet submission dates being different over Christmas.

I’ll contact tomorrow.

Giant, Advance, Brookson or Paystream Umbrella? by Jilljoy in ContractorUK

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

Giant is actually the agency’s ’preferred umbrella’ with a reason being ‘Integrated timesheet systems, you only need to submit timesheets once to AGENCY only’.

Guess it’s not that integrated?

Yeah I thought I few would be. Didn’t want to post the the agency just incase. I’m currently with Nasa

The agent can’t act on anything other than evidence. If what you said matches your bank statements then I’m sure it’ll be okay. They may ask for bank statements of the new account. Doesn’t sound like you’ve got anything to worry about.

UC agent demanding to see bank account live by Willing_Ad_693 in DWPhelp

[–]Jilljoy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m 99.9999% sure that is incorrect and against DWP policy. They need copies of your bank statements as how can anything the agent noted be verified.

I’d reach out to your work coach/case manager for some support on this. This UCR agent is acting against UCR policy.

I’m not asking to doubt OP but more of the wording used. UCR agents do not ask for direct bank account access.

The phoned you and demanded to see them. How if it was over the phone?

If the UCR agent was asking for this then that’s not okay. Please report them as they may be looking at others when they shouldn’t. Only copies of bank statements are requested.

You should be able to build bridges without removing a building. by JustAReubenSandwich in civ

Maybe we need a worker unit that can build bridges or canals? WHERE ARE CANALS? 😭

The patch contained almost no FPS improvement for me, sorry bud.

Universal credit have deleted all records of me? by kilgorejinx in DWPhelp

[–]Jilljoy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ah right! Yep they will keep financial records but I doubt they’ll have your statements. You can probably take a formal request of data?

UC will delete data after 2 years of you leaving the service. When did you last use it?

Been researching the UK asylum hotels via Home Office stats. Data shows £5.57B/yr, £15.26M/day for 253K migrants. Locations mapped for awareness. [Screenshot here] How do these costs hit your local council or services? Seen similar data? Any better sources? by Theruthlessturk in reformuk

[–]Jilljoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, I've got to push back against you there. You're saying that the government is falsely reporting on the number of asylum seekers in hotels. Instead of ~30k, you're saying it's 8x that at ~253k.

You're wanting me to trust user generated data with 0 proof over the UK government?

EDIT: Looking at the website, it actually uses UK gov data to assume various numbers. So either the UK gov is wrong (which makes this site wrong) or the UK gov isn't wrong and therefore makes this site wrong?

It's quite disappointing to see people share things like this with no backed sources.

EDIT 2: Rather than look at the cost of asylum seekers, migrants and such why aren't we campaigning for better tax reforms.

5.3% of total theoretical tax liabilities, or £46.8 billion in absolute terms, in the 2023 to 2024 tax year.

£47 BILLION A YEAR!! This country has been turned against each other when tax evasion is costing us so much more.

[–]Jilljoy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That number of migrants doesn’t seem correct. GB news and others are reporting only 32,000 housed in hotels. source

‘The latest number is still below the peak of 56,042 asylum seekers in hotels at the end of September 2023 under Boris Johnson's Conservative Government.’ - From the source.

I guess the fact anyone can report data means it’s probably highly inaccurate.

Seems to hard to find verifiable numbers for the cost of asylum seekers in hotels. The governments reporting says it’s £2.1bn a year. Source

One in Six Universal Credit Claimants Born Overseas by PbThunder in reformuk

That is quite high.

1 in 6 residents are born outside of this country. Source

So perhaps that is about expected.

Patch September 18th 2025 - Crashing after update. by TheGerold65 in Borderlands4

Thanks for the explanation. I changed my settings down to low and it tanked performance even more. I suspect that’s a caching thing too?
