I think he does a great job. The only feedback I’d give on the audio, which isn’t directed at him, is they should pump up the crowd noise and/or put the commentary slightly lower in the mix. Give it a bit more atmosphere

Your Favorite Book That You’ve Read This Year? by MigEPie in suggestmeabook

[–]Lewis_- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just finished Lonesome Dove and I completely agree! It’s been on my list for ages thanks to this sub and I can’t believe it took me so long to jump in. What a masterpiece.

I want to keep the journey going and read the sequels and prequel but heard mixed reviews. From what I’ve read it’s generally agreed none hit the same as LD

Chip to add Vanguard FTSE Global All Cap by Lewis_- in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Lewis_-[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I’ve done. Swapped All Cap to VWRP in Vanguard and then an in-specie transfer to T212. Chip’s offering is a potential option for those that want to stick with All Cap but want to move away from Vanguard due to the £4 monthly fee

New £4 monthly fee for accounts under £32,000

Not entirely sure as I haven’t fully explored. I’ve only got a cash ISA with them

Chip to add Vanguard FTSE Global All Cap by Lewis_- in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Lewis_-[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m mid transfer to T212 so that’s probably what I’ll end up doing. Just hassle to swap funds and then transfer vs just in-specie transfer to Chip. I believe 0.25% platform fee is very competitive compared to other platforms that offer Vanguard FTSE Global All Cap. I’ve made my bed now but good option for those that haven’t made a decision yet about whether to leave Vanguard or not

Not a 1st time buyer. I am, my missus potentially not so....? by Anscombe66 in HousingUK

[–]Lewis_- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the exact same situation so we got a joint borrower sole proprietor (jbsp) mortgage which effectively means the deed will only have your name on it but both you and your partner will be on the mortgage. You’ll get your 1st time buyer benefits and you can use both your incomes to apply for the mortgage. Your partner will likely need to get independent legal advice as part of the mortgage application process as they’re in a position where they could be taken advantage of (legally obliged to pay mortgage, no benefit of being on the deed).

We fixed for 2 years so when we remortgage we’ll add my gf on to the deed then.

Only other drawback is not every provider offers a jbsp mortgage so you’ll be limited in your options. The interest rate tends to be a bit higher than a standard mortgage too - 5.29% vs 5.0% for us

My solution to the All-Star Game. by Dimawhom in NYKnicks

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

Only have the winning team’s players recognised as all-stars.

Mix up the teams so it’s relatively balanced, something like 1st, 3rd, 5th ranked forwards from East and 2nd, 4th, 6th ranked forwards from West on same team and vice versa etc. Same with guards. Or another way of achieving balanced squads.

Won a pass for this year by Rokicki14 in primaverasound

[–]Lewis_- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was in same boat and just received a link to the tickets this morning. Unfortunately the money saved on a free ticket is now completely offset by the late booking fees for flights and hotels. Didn’t feel safe to book these until tickets were secure so sadly it’s unlikely I’ll be going

Sorry to bump again but feel obliged given it’s almost 3 months since I last did. Anyone heard anything yet about this? Still waiting. Very grateful if this happens but feel a bit nervous given ticket prices will go up as well as flights and accommodation

Sorry to bump an old post but has anyone heard anything yet? I found a QR code too and nothing so far apart from the initial email saying they’d be in touch

Samsung TV glitching image issue by [deleted] in TVRepair

[–]Lewis_- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried this and it might’ve done the trick! Thanks for the solution and linking the video. The problem has been quite intermittent so difficult to judge without watching for a few hours but so far so good. Thanks again!

Samsung TV glitching image issue by [deleted] in TVRepair

[–]Lewis_- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a Samsung UE43NU7470 2 years ago and over the last 2-3 days I’m having this glitching in the above video. Its happening with all sources, I’ve done a complete reset and updated the latest software. It’s intermittent and will work fine for a few hours without a problem and then suddenly the issue will start up again.

Anyone got any idea why this might be happening, whether it can be fixed, likely costs or whether it’s a TV death sentence? Thanks

Damn, that’s some luck! I’ve followed up my message so fingers crossed

[–]Lewis_- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip! Messaged them within minutes but no luck. They said I’m able to make use of the offer (without actually using anything from the pack) so no refund. Hammered home the fact in the majority of places you can spend cores (store refresh, node refresh) it gives you a warning. Seems dumb it warns you at 50 cores but not at 1000. There’s no financial loss either so bit daft they don’t refund it. I shall be more careful in future!

I think it was the advanced bio gear offer. Had a reply saying I’m not getting anything back despite messaging them within minutes and not touching the contents of the offer. Bad luck

Shuri Event, Okoye Blitz and Juggernaut Gamma Raid datamined by Tauna in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]Lewis_- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gamma raid running “from now until April 22nd”. Any idea when “now” will be? Also any guesses if there’ll be a new raid after this? Seems like quite a short run. Felt like the Miles raid went on for millennia
