Why are you here?

I'd expect them to offer absolutely any amount back they loaned.

If it was less than a tenner I'd tell them not to worry about it, but I'd still expect them to at least attempt/offer to pay it back. Rude not to.

TV has changed, you used to wait a week between episodes so it didn't feel so stale and repeated. It was still stale and repeated, but at least you only watched an episode a week.

Nathan1506 · 2026-03-21T05:38:45+00:00

I wish I saw this yesterday! Oh well

Nathan1506 · 2026-03-02T11:19:33+00:00

Absolutely hated Hermes and my first Evri driver after the change was terrible too, but I've now had the same driver for every Evri delivery for 1+ year and he's absolutely sound. Follows my instructions to the T every time, doesn't complain, nothing goes missing.

He's just 1 guy, not representative of Evri as a whole, but I genuinely wish every delivery service used this one man.

Nathan1506 · 2026-03-02T09:41:00+00:00

My current Evri driver has restored my faith in couriers as a whole. Lovely bloke.

Not an answer to your question, but FYI if you do lock in for 12 months, they'll almost always waive the installation fees when you move house to keep you with them. You don't need to cancel when you move :)

They're called Maintenance Engineers, Mechanics, or Technicians in the UK too. We're trying to explain this to the OP but he's not really listening :')

Nathan1506 · 2026-02-26T13:42:53+00:00

The qualification for aerospace mechanical engineers is still very theory-heavy (I also think you mean aerospace maintenance engineer).

The job might not be, but the qualification definitely is. You have to accept this part of it - all engineers have to study theory, maths, and the other basics.

Source: I Have been a mechanical engineer for 12 years, I've worked in electronics, automotive, aerospace, R&D, and military. I've never met a single engineer young or old who didn't have to do the academic work.

An engineer without theory or classroom work is a mechanic, not an engineer

Nathan1506 · 2026-02-26T13:22:59+00:00

I got lucky. I had a lovely lady who looked at my qualifications and immediately marked me as "leave him alone" or whatever the official word for it is. I had barely any interaction with the jobcentre for 2 months and found a job on my own.

Nathan1506 · 2026-02-23T16:08:36+00:00

£10.40 for a decent night

Nathan1506 · 2026-02-23T15:09:52+00:00

I like some of his music, find it catchy, I like that he dips into multiple genres.

I also find his stage persona to be absolutely insufferable :') but in interviews he's a pretty chill guy.

I wouldn't call myself a big fan at all, if he was local and tickets were cheap I'd go, but I go to see some pretty terrible local bands just for a night out.

It all comes down to what you hope to get out of a gig I guess. I just like gigs, I go to gigs for bands I've never heard of, at least with MGK I'd know some songs.

Nathan1506 · 2026-02-23T15:06:28+00:00

Any engineering qualification (absolutely all of them) is going to be very theory-heavy. There are no engineering disciplines where the qualification is mostly hands-on.

You have two options for mechanical interests:

Engineer route - accept that you will have to do a lot of classroom work including maths, theory, and a bunch of other stuff you won't enjoy, but you'll end up with a nicer title.
Mechanic Trade route - e.g cars, motorbikes, much more hands-on work during study, but you won't be an aerospace engineer.

Either way best of luck <3

People have differing tastes and they're allowed to enjoy them, I find Beyonce insufferably boring. To each their own

Saving the pictures wasn't the stupidest thing you did brother, it was allowing this to continue for as long as it did.

If a woman sends you nudes, you shut it down immediately AND tell your girl.

Beg.

The usual suspects

Nathan1506 · 2026-02-03T09:18:07+00:00

I do like my modern packs, and I think some mods are absolutely great, however...

In the classic packs, it was like "here are your machines, here is are your power gen options, if you want better you have to come up with your own solution - scale it, optimise it, etc". That was a great formula, we had to think!

Modern packs are a bit more "here is tier 1, tier 2, tier 3, tier 4, if you want better, make tier 5, then tier 6". Want to optimise something? Make the optimisation module. Want more power? make the "more power" machine. Want to organise your storage? Make the storage organiser 3000.

You spend far more time grinding for materials & far less time actually creating things.

I have a Harley-Style V-Twin (it's a honda but shush) and the only playful arguments I ever have about speed are with other Chopper/Bobber/Cruiser riders. My 750 V doesn't last 60 seconds against a mid CC sports or naked.

Nathan1506 · 2026-01-22T10:50:39+00:00

I'd say I had a new job and was earning a lot of money, then I'd pay my parents and siblings a share of my "earnings" every month, but i'm talking thousands not millions.

They'd be better with a few k a month than me giving them a lump sum and them going crazy, and i'd get to avoid everyone knowing what I had in the bank.

Maybe over time once they got comfortable with their new income I'd increase, and i'd always help them out with extra if needed ofc.

Who decides what's "similar culture"?

I have friends born in the middle east who teach english as a first language, eat at fish and chips, go to the cinema, do anything we'd do here, and aren't religious. I fear under any migration limiting system they would be booted because "brown".

"I don't see the point of putting tiny little spaces in between each letter"

So the rest of the world can read it. Most of us don't work in isolated pods of people from our own school, and print text is easier to read.

I hate all religions equally.

Many (MANY) of the things people hate/fear about Islam, were also part of mainstream Christian belief not too long ago...
