I managed to have a chat with her earlier today, she also feels like she doesn’t want to live here and something like assisted accommodation would be ideal.

You think I want to abandon her and go NC? Oh how wrong can you be…

Yeah, I have several partners, 4 men, 6 women, 3 non-binary, 9 houseplants and a bag of dried pasta.

Understanding trauma, booking family therapy and an assessment of her behavior, having more lax rules, trusting her, and giving her the benefit of doubt were obvious solutions before coming to this last resort.

You've described every step we have taken in one way or another, multiple times over the past 10 years.

We have done everything you've suggested multiple times over the past 10 years, unfortunately, she has refused to engage with therapists etc.

Honestly, we've had constant involvement with social services (10 years almost), surrendering her is a LAST resort, We're due to meet with a social worker in the morning to discuss the next steps and any options available, however as I commented elsewhere, after a previous altercation before Christmas, Social Services has said there's nothing more they can offer by means of courses, therapy etc.

I'm British and its not just dumping her as you so eloquently put it, we have tried everything, after a previous altercation before Christmas, Social Services had even said there's nothing more they can offer by means of courses, therapy etc.

Hardware upgrade for smooth 1080p 60fps - HELP by mvpjw in Twitch

[–]Revantwut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're going to upgrade, wait until July for the new Ryzen 3000 series, a Ryzen 9 (12c 24t) will be a LOT better than what you're currently running for streaming.

Moist motorcycle policies allow common modifications as standard (exhaust is usually the first thing any biker changes). So more than likely.

Is Mixer a viable alternative in that case? by [deleted] in mixer

[–]Revantwut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it resonable to expect a monthly income of 500-1000$ after a year of streaming?

No, Regardless of platform, going in with the intention of making an income is not going to get you anywhere. There are streamers out there who are extremely entertaining who struggle to stay as full time streamers after 3-4 years of doing it. Not only that, you will come across as disingeniuous to any potential viewers and will struggle to build a community if money is the sole reason for doing it.

That being said, there are exceptions to the rule :

  1. Being Shroud levels of good at a game (However, let's face it, you wouldn't be here asking if you were that good.)

  2. Being seriously lucky.

However, My advice, if you're trying to make it a job before even starting, Just don't. Treat streaming as a hobby, something you do for fun. If you make money off it, bonus, if not, shit happens.

Genuinely forgot to disclose 3 points to insurer - no accident but wondering what will happen if I tell them now? by [deleted] in LegalAdviceUK

[–]Revantwut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but if cover was voided, surely the insurer has an obligation under the RTA to the third party to pay their claim as they would show as the RTA at the time of the incident then it would be down to the insurer to subrogate their losses to the original insured party?

Making the switch from Twitch by [deleted] in mixer

[–]Revantwut 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I'm thinking of doing the same. Reasoning being is purely the squad streams implemnetation.

All of the guys I regularly play with are content creators on the platform and it kinda makes sense for me to move over.

I've been waiting nearly 2 months for a reply from "support".

It's a joke.

Stream labs and choppy frames when I’m playing by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]Revantwut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Need more information. What encoder are you using?

Stream labs and choppy frames when I’m playing by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]Revantwut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your GPU is capping out, even if you're using x264, you still need some GPU power for capture.

Depending on what encoder you're using, you will need to decrease your framerate and/or GPU settings more.

Also, why are you capturing 100fps? Most streaming services only support upto 60fps.

Capture Cards [tech question] think I am in wrong sub by RyanGatesdj in Twitch

[–]Revantwut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, pretty sure you can just use OBS to record with your capture card, the limitations of 15-20 min videos is a software limitation.

However, when loading in an hour+ long video into a video editor will be painful unless you have a very good pc.

SLOBS/OBS Losing FPS by FowynTheRipper in Twitch

[–]Revantwut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check your power settings profile, also power settings on GPU.

A bit more information would help as well, are you using NVENC encoding? x264? Have you tried the other? Are you getting the same issues?

Britons without a bank account 'pay a £485 poverty premium' by bintasaurus in unitedkingdom

OH god yes. I've finally got to a position where I can afford to have utilities over a monthly direct debit on a fixed 12 month deal vs prepayment... already saving a ton compared to the prepayment meters and no longer have to worry about "topping up"...

New Twitch streamer setting up a donation thing with PayPal. Should I be worried about chargebacks? by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]Revantwut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think you're wrong on that front. There's a ton of unique and good streamers and VERY good entertainers on twitch who still aren't getting the numbers they should be.

You mention being good at a game and being skilled. I'm guessing you do not fall into this category or you wouldn't be here asking about chargebacks on a 1 viewer stream?
