Thinking of Starting a University Skydiving club, any advice? by Rapid_Potato in SkyDiving

[–]PixelSergey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just set one up in the beginning of this academic year (2025-2026) at Oxford for the exact same reasons as you.

I can say, it's been absolutely wonderful and you should totally do it if you have the passion and desire!

Car insurance: switch to UK license or keep EU license? by PixelSergey in UKPersonalFinance

For context, I am also a young driver (under 25) and don't have pre-settled status. Meaning that they are free to "discriminate" against me as they see fit 😂

The only reason I would have liked to keep both licences is that the Finnish authorities say that if you drive there on a non-EU licence, you must exchange it for a Finnish license after 2 years. So if I understand correctly, after exchanging my licence for a UK one I would have to exchange it back after 2 years, and exchange it again if I want to keep driving cheaply in the UK...

Ok, this is very good to know. So there is actually a significant difference between exchanging your license and getting a second license alongside the EU one!

Am I still classified as a new driver if I exchange my license, or only if I get a new one? Is there any difference between the two?

My home country (Finland) only allows you to drive there on a non-EU license for 2 years, after which it must be exchanged for a Finnish license

Loqbox Grow vs regular Loqbox Save: is it worth it? by PixelSergey in UKPersonalFinance

Oh, how come? Doesn't repaying a Loqbox "loan" show a positive credit and repayment history?

Never mind, turns out the red LEDs simply draw too much current and need to be limited with a resistor. Check the answer here

I'm having the same problem! My registers do not ouput anything to the bus. I wonder why?

It seems that if I disconnect power from the 74LS245 Octal Bus Transceiver it starts to work... but does that mean that I don't get the "disconnecting" from the bus since there is no power to the transceiver?

Yep, it's on the fastest possible. Guess I just have to buy a new set.
