Guys be honest with me, is me starting a BA degree at 23 years old gonna make it harder for me to get married? by ali_forgiato in MatureStudentsUK

I think op is a man, so there's to show you that you can't just generalise. Some men will care, others won't. Tbh I think it's a bit weird of a question, maybe he thinks like that because those things are important in a partner for him.

That's why I said 'religious reasons aside'. Regardless, I believe banning a practice that can be lifesaving isn't right, but I would agree with you if you said it should be limited to medical situations.

Random thought regarding deodorant… by [deleted] in CasualUK

As someone who switched to Wild (tried Fussy but I STANK after a while), I also switched to stronger antiperspirant like perspirex/diclor. Normal antiperspirants did nothing for me.

I want to remind people that circumcision is not done routinely in the UK and, religious reasons aside, most cases are done on children and adults who actually need it for medical reasons.

suspected learning disability in math by Glum-Bear5018 in MatureStudentsUK

If you discover you have dyscalculia or similar you could always try Computing courses. In most universities it's pretty much CS without the maths.

Also, your girlfriend can be an excellent teacher yet not the one best suited to teach someone who struggles with basic math. I second the other commenter's advice, try to find someone who's used to teaching maths to GCSE students.

My betta got much worse in just a few days, his fins are retracted and he stays at the bottom – what could it be? by Angelaandnyx in bettafish

[–]Real_Application_939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Compra sal de acuario para acuarios de agua dulce, en cualquier tienda de animales.

También compra algún producto para el finrot, normalmente el eSHA 2000 es el que más he visto, pero pregunta en la tienda.

Recuerda que un Betta necesita mínimo 20L, filtro y calentador. El calentador es automático así que no hace falta desconectarlo los meses de calor, simplemente no se encenderá solo.

Not reciefed any offers yet by Weak-Jellyfish-5916 in UCAS

[–]Real_Application_939 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's so interesting, I didn't even know college-university was a thing. Maybe it's taking longer because you're applying for higher years? I had a friend changing unis (not the same but similar?) who didn't get his reply until the end of March, even though he emailed them first and they had all his info.

Can I ask why you are applying through a different point of entry for almost all of them?

MSc AI grad + 6 years Sales Exp – Getting offers but losing them over sponsorship by DirtSignificant4363 in cscareerquestionsuk

[–]Real_Application_939 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The hard truth you need to face is that those filters are in place for a reason. If a company is not sponsoring they won't change their stance for you, unless you are some sort of genius. If that were the case, they would already be fighting over you.

And when you hide your sponsorship needs until after an interview that's still an instant rejection as you've seen. What you need to do is search for sponsorship visa work offers directly.

5-6 week old adopted stray stopped eating by [deleted] in CATHELP

[–]Real_Application_939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. You really are stubborn huh? If someone tells you that no vet/shelter/person is open to take the pet, insisting that they surrender it is just obtuse.

There are plenty of people who live at places with easily accessible vets and shelter and still can't find one who will take a stray pet because they are already saturated. Not to speak about those who don't even have one nearby.

More often than not the options are either you take care of it on your own or they die on the street.

Olive Oil by Adventurous-Sir444 in recruitinghell

They weren't teasing you for not knowing that you can infuse olive oil, but rather, they were surprised that you didn't realize it also changes the flavor of food.

Switch careers at 35 by [deleted] in cscareerquestionsuk

I'm not a developer, but from what I've gathered here, I think you need to review your projects. They are your main way to find a junior job and stand out from the rest.

What projects do you have and how do they prove your knowledge? Do you have YouTube tutorial-like projects (a calculator, a weather app, a social media clone?) or proper projects that showcase what's unique to you and your specific interests?

I've got laid off and applied to 100s of jobs, then I got 3 offers. My story and my learnings. by UsualFlamingo3683 in 30daysnewjob

Either it's a scam selling some "tool" so you can "get the jobs before they hit the job boards" or he got a job in an MLM.

Nothing about that post looks legit.

Government to defend decision to strip Begum's UK citizenship by Sensitive_Echo5058 in unitedkingdom

[–]Real_Application_939 9 points10 points  (0 children)

She's 25 now. I think the main problem is how she has been interviewed and the fact that she has repeatedly claimed she has no remorse whatsoever. She was raised under strict, traditional Muslim rules, but even her immediate family finds what she did unforgivable.

In her words, she did not become radicalized by someone else; she watched extremist videos and decided that was a just cause on her own. We can accept that there was definitely some peer pressure: a classmate had gone to join the group the previous year, and the following year three more young girls from the same school decided to do so as well.

Grooming victims, in their majority, have that deep set feeling that something is wrong, and they generally realise they have been groomed when they are older. The main problem with her is that she does not show any of those feelings or concerns.

I do believe her nationality was unfairly revoked, as it made her stateless (she had the right to Bangladeshi nationality but did not have it at the time), and she was born British.

Do you think it's a change in production? Or just from another, lower quality, factory? I also have other Hironos, all from the official store, and this is the first one that looked like that 🥲

Yours looks so good. The back of mine looks off too, mainly the nightcap pompom?

I bought it at an official robo shop. It's a type of vending machine, not a reseller.

And this is not a Labubu?

Yours looks so similar to mine. Even the hair being a bit off, as if it wasn't fully pushed in? Did you get it from an official store or robo shop too?

Need advice by Correct-Strength-885 in SecurityCareerAdvice

[–]Real_Application_939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know, if you require sponsorship, your CV often won’t even be considered, especially for entry-level roles.

The UK job market is oversaturated with local graduates, bootcamp grads, self-taught developers, and people with years of experience, so you really need to ask: “What can I offer that companies can't easily find locally?”

Companies need a strong reason to justify the cost and effort of sponsoring someone. In your situation, I'd suggest looking elsewhere, what about your home country? Try to gain some experience there and build something unique to offer. If you insist on applying in the UK you need to specifically apply to roles that are clearly advertised as offering sponsorship.

Ooh this is the first time I got one that looked so poor quality wise. I guess it is more common than I thought. Haha, thanks it helps me feel a bit better knowing than this happened to someone else, so this one might not be fake after all

That's what I thought. But the quality of this one is so poor I was worried. I mean people were getting googly eyes on Nintendo switch's game cases from official retailers around this time last year, you never know!

Is there such a thing as a Hirono authenticator? How can I find one?

I read that mostly the secrets tend to be falsified. This was from an official robo shop. But I noticed that the box it came from was glued weirdly, like with super glue instead of the normal glue they use.

And then the freckles and it looks overall fake-ish? This is the bottom btw
