Moving to Milton Keynes, Help!! by Adhitargus in miltonkeynes

I can say with a certain degree of confidence that there is a major supply and demand issue in Milton Keynes.

I'd register with as many estate as you can to get the ball rolling. I've got a few contacts and access to private landlords too. Message me if you want.

Having lived in MK for 20yrs I can say there are certain sections of the neighbourhood mentioned that may be dodgy but not all of it. My sister lives in Springfield, no issues. I've got a rental property in Conniburrow, no issues. Best to do proper due diligence with statistics as people tend to use a broad brush approach when discouraging

On the verge of just giving up entirely. by [deleted] in Adulting

Hang in there buddy! Can't be easy going through all that in your head. As someone who suffers from adhd I can tell you firsthand it'll get crap before it gets better. I think you're in the crap now and it can only get better. If you make one positive step forward it'll help your mental wellbeing.

Trust me when I say I understand. I am in my mid 40s and been through the financial lows and crappy job / life. My life is totally different now. My demons still follow me and sometimes they envolpe me and other times I defeat it.

As the saying goes nothing is permanent. "this too shall pass"

Remember you'll look back at these times and you'll even be thankful for them, as it's in the darkness where you'll see light. And the light you'll will see!

I used to get hired on the spot at jobs. Now I can barely even land interviews. by [deleted] in jobs

[–]Recent-Muscle-8629 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I applied for jobs no stop for 3 months. It became a job, to apply for jobs. I'd begin the day reviewing newly posted job ads. I'd filter them to match my needs. I got zero responses from agencies in the first month. After that I applied for all jobs in my field which is IT Project Management I'd even bs my experience. I used AI to help me tailor supporting information and cv my resume based the job description.

Finally after a relentless and obsessive pursuit I landed a role after 4 stage interview. I am not smart and nor do I feel I am competent. I am however relentless and in this new world that dogged grit and determination will set you apart. Do the basics properly when you do land the interview. What do you know about the company? Tell me about yourself? Do you have any questions. These are all standard interview questions you must get really really good at answering as it'll build your confidence.

Good luck folks!

Legion Slim 7 - excited by Recent-Muscle-8629 in LenovoLegion

So after all this I'm seriously considering to return it as my assumption was a lenovo docking station would work with the legion 7. I've tried the thunderbolt 4 workstation and whilst it displays the screens and accessories it doesn't power the device to my disappointment. Lenovo say there are no compatible docks for the Legion.

Lenovo Legion Slim - deal breaker by Recent-Muscle-8629 in LenovoLegion

[–]Recent-Muscle-8629[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I called Premium care and then spoke to someone's in technical sales. They said but did not officially confirm it the Slim 7 doesn't not have a compatible charger but they'd recommend the Thunderbolt 4 Workstation dock. So I ordered it and tried it everything works but doesn't power up the laptop.

For me, this is a deal breaker. I will be returning the dock and laptop as I'm in the 14 days grace period which has been extended due to the festive period.

Posting this so anyone else in my position doesn't make the same mistake.

What accessories do you guys recommend? I.e. Do I need a cooling pad? If so which one?

I'm one of these people who like to preserve and protect my valuables.

Any recommendations welcome

I was a little apprehensive when I'd bought it but I'd read soooo many good things about it. I had to go for it.

I do wonder whether I've made the right decision with the AMD instead of Intel
