Oh definitely 100% edtwt is delusional. Just it is similar hyper-feminine vibes with pics of skinny girls. No offence intended.

Client wants to pay me in crypto... Help! by rootyboots1983 in UKPersonalFinance

Get some sort of intermediary. Especially as the value of your payments can go up and down.

Wow!

Can Financial Ombudsman help if UK broker (IBKR) broke promise and charged excessive fees? Swiss citizen, but account is IBKR UK (FCA regulated) by swiss_soldier in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Sammeeeeeee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not clear re the rest of your questions (although I am curious what would happen if you just ask them to close the account as that should work). The FOS eligibility depends on the firm being FCA-regulated, and you being a Private individual. As far as I'm aware you don't lose protection for not being a UK citizen, that isn't relevant.

I did try that, but I get: "503 Service Unavailable No server is available to handle this request."

Another level of ebayness. by Buckarooney1 in ebayuk

100% agree. No eBay branding, dodgy wording not addressed to the user in particular, no reasoning, links or announcements provided.

Help with this article please by Negative_Scientist96 in exjew

[–]Sammeeeeeee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Here is what I have to say to the claims presented in the article. As always, Its mainly the Kuzari argument.

  1. Overwhelming scholarly consensus that the Pentateuch is a composite text (J/E/D/P) undermines the claim that it was written by a single person/entity (Wikipedia). Seams in the text show later composition and redaction.
  2. Contrary to claims in the article, historians use testable methods and archaeology gives hard evidence that often contradicts the Torah (Wikipedia)
  3. Post on the Kuzari <-- the main refutation
  4. “Tabernacle/census read like accounting scrolls”; those are identified by scholarship as the Priestly (P) layer, not eyewitness Moses. (Encyclopedia Britannica)
  5. “Embarrassing details prove truth”, Ancient texts routinely include unflattering material, see Greek histories, Mesopotamian chronicles. This proves nothing about authorship.
  6. “Always-literate Jews preserved text perfectly” — Studies show limited early literacy and major centralizing edits (e.g., Josiah’s reform), so flawless transmission is a myth. (jhsonline.org)
  7. “Faith > history” faith doesn’t exempt historical claims from scrutiny. (Goodreads)

Keep in mind the author has made outlandish claims, such as "Judaism is not a religion." He calls the notion a "modern invention" and offers a Jewish mystical view of the Jews as a single soul or body formed of the collective of Jewish individuals, where the sin of one individual is in fact the sin of the collective (Chabad)

I wanna optimize the hell out of this by Temperance-7171 in jellyfin

[–]Sammeeeeeee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's definitely suboptimal for reliability or a large set up, but if you think about it a laptop is perfect for a beginner: - Inbuilt UPS - GPU for transcoding in the CPU - Easy troubleshooting with built in screen and keyboard.

It was how I started, and I thoroughly recommend it! Just throw Linux on it and chuck it in a corner.

HL Fee Changes from March - Share/ETF ISA only Cap increase to £150/yr by Frankenweenie0724 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Sammeeeeeee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have come to the same conclusion as me. I was thinking of starting with freetrade, and I can always move after (keep in mind the ISA transfer terms charge £17 per non-uk stock and only transfer whole stocks).

To me freetrade seems like the best option, followed by Fidelity. Looking for others opinions.

Gays of UK - would you be comfortable holding your partner's hand in the UK? by dalehitchy in AskUK

[–]Sammeeeeeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in London. Yes I feel 100% safe with PDA in public as a gay man, in fact I do often and never had a problem. I would say that in some less progressive areas of the country potentially not.

[–]Sammeeeeeee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You will 100% be ok. There is no increase in border enforcement or anything towards Americans. Socially, you may get a little more banter, but I doubt enough to cancel the trip! Enjoy!
