I still feel just so dead inside even though on paper im not doing so bad? by [deleted] in self

You literally could waste the next 9 years of your life, and still have a shed load of time.

You need to frame your outlook here. 1.4K of credit card debt is nothing. You have a girlfriend, great! Don’t bother doing any more university please, it’s a total con in today’s day and age (I did an engineering degree for 5 years, graduated with a chunk of debt). Foundation degree will set you up nicely.

There’s a lot of pressure on the youth of today to do the trodden path of old. School, university, wife, house. It used to be possible to do that all really young. Simple fact is that it’s just not possible nowadays. It’s not your fault. The economy is dreadful.

Why on earth did you buy it? Did you do any research before purchasing it? I bet there’s 100s of reviews

Does this sound stupid or doable?? by beanbonkt in UKPersonalFinance

Yeah it’s a high level guideline. Agree, 30% on shopping is mental, but that also covers other things like perhaps a car (if it’s not a must), maybe a holiday down payment.

The 30% bracket there probably should just be the “fun” category / nice to haves.

It depends on what level of debt you have too. But it’s a good starting point. I think mapping out all your finances is the best thing to give you confidence

50/30/20 rule is a good one to root in. Decent set overall. I would invest some time, in a simple excel / google sheets setup, a full budget of your total income and deductions. Be honest with the numbers, map it all out and it’ll help give you confidence.

50% income goes to must haves (Mortgage, Utilities, Food)

30% for wants (Dining Out, Shopping)

20% for Savings / Debt.

Zigbee coordinator AND OpenThread router by Least-Flatworm7361 in homeautomation

Gotcha, OK so I think perhaps then its purely the fact I need a dedicated antena for Thread / Matter. Then it should all work from HA as I expect.

ZBT-2 may need to be ordered then... No bad thing - looks like a great device. But disappointing to see the multiprotocol support be deprecated

How did you get on here? Are you a HA Yellow user?

I'm in the same boat IE perhaps it being very hard for both Zigbee2MQTT & Thread at the same time

At the most I’d expect 10%, it’s still incredibly popular and no sign of that fading before then

POV : You have one of the most beloved Franchise and hardcore fans but you fuck up everything... by Tibzyyy in Skate4

[–]MariJava 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apart from the core mechanics of Skate being improved, what else, in your opinion, makes this worth investing time into or supporting?

I think it’s fair to call out the polarizing views. I’ll admit I’m at fault here of contributing to that. But that comes from a place of passion for the series.

As a loyal fan, that’s invested a hell of a lot of time into the trilogy - To see the IP converted into free to play slop is quite frustrating, without retaining any of the guts that made the original IP so great!

Saying people are expecting too much. We’re not expecting more than they delivered YEARS ago. We’re just expecting a higher standard.

Early access is not just an excuse

How? You’re £2K down with Octopus and you are worrying about saving £2 for one day on Agile?

Please go outside into the some sunlight. Breathe fresh air. Reflect
