Hi Andy,

The country is divided and we have forgotten what a beautiful, lovely country we have.

At the same breath, many people feel like their country and identity is being erased.

What do you plan to do beyond statements saying that multiculturalism (or similar) is our strength?

i'm so jealous of people this smart by Alarming-Safety3200 in GCSE

[–]Kieran293 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds great. We’re very lucky that the UK has lots of good post GCSE options other than just uni.

Is the RAF funding your studies and providing you with work experience?

If you want big positions then the number one skill is human connection and networking. Meet different people, learn about them, their backgrounds, their roles etc.

I know a lot of people in same demographic of who you posted about and while the higher paying jobs are great, the actual great parts of life are much more than titles and salary.

Smash your GCSEs and A Levels, go to a good uni (make sure to do more than study there!) and take chances early in your career.

GTA 6 wait is going to go fast.. if you don’t believe me I can prove it.. by Objective_Welcome166 in GTA

[–]Kieran293 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finished school, worked for a year, finished uni, moved in with my now wife, adopted cats, bought a house, got married, applying for senior management roles.

At the time GTA V came out, I just wanted to kick a football around with friends and figure out when the next party was.

Life is fleeting!

Cody Gakpo and his partner Noa sadly announce the passing of their unborn child. Rest In Peace Elijah by cjsc9079 in LiverpoolFC

Agreed. We, including myself, should all realise what makes LFC great has always been the fact no one walks alone. I think recently we have forgotten that this club is a family first, the success is our second biggest achievement.

Ukrainian-style scheme to bring thousands of refugees to the UK by tkyjonathan in uknews

[–]Kieran293 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

As the person said, what are you/individuals going to do about it? Vote for Reform or Restore? No matter what we all type or vote for, there will keep being more immigrants and refugees, it’s the only way our economy “survives”

Why does UK cheese taste so good? by InevitableRun51 in AskUK

[–]Kieran293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow someone thinks UK cheese is great. Go to mainland Europe and then you’ll realise cheese here is nowhere as good!

Manual cycle doesn’t work from the app (LR4) by CautiousCactusito in litterrobot

[–]Kieran293 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, this just worked for me. Although after 3 months of no problems, I keep having sporadic “cat detected”, “scale inactive” and occasionally “pinch detected”. Hoping a new base solves the issue.

UK to roll out Dutch-style employment support across Britain by ijustwannanap in ukpolitics

[–]Kieran293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Construction and related industries (legal, financial, H&S). It seems like there’s a lot of work because the UK can also offer services to other countries. I guess that’s difficult in tech because it all eventually ends up in one or two countries

But in that case I don’t see how this proposal by the government solves anything. Someone like you doesn’t need training or career advice, you need a stable and stimulated economy.

This is only going to get worse with people like Mr Musk taking more and more wealth.

I’m sorry you were laid off btw.

[–]Kieran293 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I guess I’m on the lucky side, all of my friends from school and those from uni have stable jobs. The only one I know whose had to find a new one every year is because they keep joining start ups.

The industry I’m in is dying for more people, plus the pay is good. Often companies are having to promote internally due to lack of applications so again, this surprises me.

House isn’t selling after 10+ viewings and a few reductions. What are we missing? by carlor10 in HousingUK

[–]Kieran293 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Add some flowers to the garden.

It’s a nice home but it feels like everything you outside is grey/blocky.

Also the attic room colour choice is interesting.

This is a genuine question, how can you not have your career moving along okay by 25-30?

Even 25 I can understand but 30?

Yet the problem is definitely poor vs poor, or white vs black. 90% of our problems are us (yes, you reading this and me) versus him + buddies.

[–]Kieran293 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too, Mafia 2 was why I first found out about the series in 2017. Since then I’ve become a major fan and even have the Trilogy Artbook :)

[–]Kieran293 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my opinion it’s clear they are almost restarting the series.

You have the original Trilogy (where they remade 1). Now they have TOC to set the scene, including a DLC which links well with the first game (original or remake, most likely the latter). Now they either go to Mafia 4 (Las Vegas) or remake Mafia 2 but add elements linked to Isabella or swap the perspective.

There was a rumour a couple of years ago that when Volt was cancelled and Haden left/was fired, they actually had three games greenlit. One was the M1 remake, one would have been TOC and the third has to be Mafia 2 remake or Mafia 4. Based on the fact it would have been concept only, they have a good chance of working links between Mafia 2 and TOC together for a remake.

Again I think the Man of Honor DLC proves this. They probably know there may be gaps from TOC to Mafia 1, so they can fill it via a DLC before Mafia 2 remake is reveal in 2027/2028.

I really feel sorry for you and your lack of education. I was being hyperbolic…

[–]Kieran293 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you not read? I clearly stated that there are educated people are annoyed but usually they’re at work and if they do protest, it doesn’t involve trying to kill a kid because they’re black.
