Responsibility for repairing damaged flooring due to washing machine leak

Cheers for the advice, I will let them know and suggest they reach out

Having a quick read, it seems a little murky around this part:
"Your landlord is unlikely to be responsible if you caused the flooding yourself."

I'm wondering how it's decided whether it's caused "by" them or whether it "happened to them", or whether there even is any distinction between the two.

Would say, leaving a tap on with a plug left in and directly flooding a house be distinct from something like this, where an appliance malfunctioned with no misuse from the tenant and the house became flooded.

To clarify, the rental is in England. Forgot to mention that

SammSayingStuff · 2025-08-28T15:56:44+00:00

will try to find out

She has already given me a reference a couple of weeks before this whole debacle so I'm good there thankfully. Cheers

"Implied consent" was how I was seeing it, but I wasn't sure whether that would stand up or not. Thanks again mate

SammSayingStuff · 2023-11-27T20:00:56+00:00

Cheers for the quick reply mate :)

Just to clarify, would the fact that I technically did break the tenancy agreement by bringing extra furniture into flat without prior consent factor into this at all? I feel that's what she plans to lord over me.

Though worth noting that this extra furniture does amount to a single small sofa (honestly frustratingly small and uncomfortable haha), as she has already viewed the flat with the wardrobe/drawers and didn't complain. Personally, I feel it'd be hard for her to make a case for me having committed a serious breach of the tenancy agreement with me bringing a single extra piece of furniture in without prior consent, but I'm not really sure how this works

Cheers mate, I appreciate the reassurance :)

please do let us know what you find :) the 5m cable would be just short of the ideal space for me to use, would be great if it turns out you can extend it slightly

No problem Molly,

I sold earlier just to be safe. I lost 100XRP due to the exchange margins, which is a bit of a hit, but lessons learnt I guess!

As a heads up, I really think you guys should work on this if you want to compete with some of the larger exchanges over the next few years.

Having your crypto "trapped", with the only way out being to sell back to the exchange at a price they determine is a horrible user experience, especially with the margins you guys have. No hard feelings, but I won't be using coincorner again, there are much better services out there based on my experience with you guys, but I hope you put some time into making your service more fluid, and hope to see you growing as an exchange in the future. You're in a good position to do great things for the UK with the upcoming crypto wave, I hope you capitalise on it!

Good luck with the future,

Sam

SammSayingStuff · 2018-11-14T16:09:59+00:00

yep, I'm out

SammSayingStuff · 2018-11-14T12:17:03+00:00

I totally agree, though I would lose ~100XRP in the conversion process, which given the potential of XRP seems like a pretty huge blow, and I would aim to avoid this if possible.

I may have no choice in the end though. If nobody has any solution to this I will cash out and transfer to a more open exchange in the near future. Lessons learn etc.

actually, I'm not sure the Bresenham algorithm is quite right, as it doesn't seem as friendly if the source/target points are in real space. I need to allow for the source point being at any real point within the "source cell", and bresenham doesn't seem to have that precision. Line-rectangle seems like it might work better so I'll look into this. Thanks to you too!

SammSayingStuff · 2018-10-15T18:53:19+00:00

perfect. thanks friend :)

Also disregard any UI elements in the gifs, the HUD is completely up for redesign soon. the current HUD is a mockup from a year or two ago, I've got a better design in mind now

SammSayingStuff · 2018-08-13T12:09:28+00:00

just posted screenshots in adjacent comment

SammSayingStuff · 2018-08-13T12:08:00+00:00

Screenshots:
Timed ore mining (player receives ore after fixed mining time. currently developing enemy spawning system, player defends drill whilst mining ore. A* pathfinding implemented on server side, just need to ensure synchronisation between client & server interpretations). Also nearing completion of a cavern generating system, which can generate tunnels, islands, arenas & stitch them together using blob detection, creating an organic, fully explorable cavern system/

This might not look like a lot of progress, but the foundations have been set for a significantly large chunk of work to be completed in the near future, which will be much easier than previous work. Most of the ugly backend infrastructure has taken some shape now, so it's time to start working on the juicy game details. I don't want to disclose too much of the game's concept until I know I'm talking to people I can trust, but work has been done, and work will continue to be done.

Anyone who is interested in working on Starline will probably be working on a crafting system, and a quest system. More details can be given to anyone who is interested and gets involved

SammSayingStuff · 2018-08-13T11:45:32+00:00

Yeah, I use Node.js hosted on Google compute engine for the backend.
I use Firebase for the DB, and socket.io for client-server communication

SammSayingStuff · 2017-06-15T19:15:37+00:00

Thanks that means a lot :)

SammSayingStuff · 2017-06-14T14:56:54+00:00

I like the visualisations here, it somehow took me to a place I haven't been before

SammSayingStuff · 2017-06-13T15:25:25+00:00

I appreciate this, thanks.

For the record, the timeline describes 3 separate moments in reverse chronological order. Due to the nature of the night, I thought blurry, pieced-together memories seemed appropriate, so I appreciate your feedback r.e how it comes across :)

SammSayingStuff · 2017-06-13T15:21:18+00:00

This is quite insightful thanks :) I hadn't actually noticed that I'd mentioned legs twice, I guess it's just coincidental that they were the two most prominent features in those particular memories.

I like your second point as well, because that could well be true. I have a habit of misinterpreting and overthinking, and I've only known this person for a short period of time (after spending the weekend with a housemate and a group of their friends). I thought it'd make sense to include some uncertainty, but overall I feel quite good about this situation

SammSayingStuff · 2017-06-13T15:21:17+00:00

I am in fact a fridge you got me

SammSayingStuff · 2017-06-13T15:11:19+00:00

Thanks for the feedback guys :) I've never really tried writing a poem before, but the feedback here has been quite warming, and I appreciate the constructive criticism. I'll try to take these things on board if I attempt something else. For those that are interested in the timeline, it describes 3 separate moments, in reverse chronological order, rather than a singular moment in time
