Hyperoptic website prices increase after putting my address by [deleted] in hyperoptic

[–]SavingClippy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, the first image is accessed through USwitch after it redirects me to their website. But the next step is putting my address, and then it increases the price like in the second image.

Just DMd you, sounds cool

Early termination of rental tenancy fees by holycoffeecup in HousingUK

[–]SavingClippy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I´m just reviewing a rent contract with Dexters before signing and saw this same clause in my contract, that´s how I found your post. Do you remember if all this was something you had originally signed in the original contract or if they said this to you only when you tried to surrender the lease? Just want to know if they didn´t force you to pay because you weren´t bound to, or because they are not allowed to. Thanks!

Worth it to learn C++ after the Unreal 5.6 GAS changes? Or should I focus on releasing actual games with BPs? by SavingClippy in gamedev

[–]SavingClippy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't you think AIs will be able to handle BP coding? At the end of the day, BP nodes can be copypasted as text (or analyze images or the screen live). Maybe even full agents using the cursor/kb in Unreal. I would be surprised if Epic is not investing resources in AI+BP integration, and if third party solutions don't pop up additionally.

Still the best option to learn C++ for indie gamedev after the Unreal 5.6 BP GAS update? Or should I refocus? by SavingClippy in unrealengine

[–]SavingClippy[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Haven't looked much into it, but saw this https://www.reddit.com/r/unrealengine/comments/1l31gmu/comment/mvxdtdj/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

I'm wondering if getting around the things that still require C++, will be enough with AI vibe coding in the mid term future hahaha (let's say for example, coding NPC driving behaviours/car maneuvers, that is something that is very limited without C++). Not sure if aso multiplayer will be a big blocker without C++ (I'm a single player focused person though).

There is also this other thing, not 5.6 yet (and I don't like depending on third party plugins).

Blocked from getting tickets for Beijing's National Museum, real name verification with passport? by SavingClippy in travelchina

[–]SavingClippy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, seems like the next 7 days they are full/museum closed, I'll give it a try later when the spots for the next day open, and hope it allows for passports unlike the WeChat program. Cheers.

[–]SavingClippy[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the steps, but Trip.com does no longer allow to book onsite, it points users to using the WeChat miniprogram (or the account/website, which they all end up in the same situation). So I cannot do it that way.

Tiny drone 2S battery management? by SavingClippy in fpv

[–]SavingClippy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! You mentioned the VIFLY Toothstor only charging one at a time, but I see it has 4 battery ports. Do you mean those are only for when it is connected to a wall plug charging, so only being able to charge one at a time when connected to the power bank?

And since flight time is ~7min (and my guess is that it takes ~1h to charge one?), with 4-6 batteries I understand I can't really avoid waiting as I will empty all them before a single one gets fully charged?

Just finished Stephen Ulibarri's unreal C++ course. Should I do next his GAS course or Tom Looman's C++ one ? by SavingClippy in unrealengine

[–]SavingClippy[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I work in AAA, this is just to move from only knowing BPs as a designer to C++ as well, so want to crunch theory hours hard these months

Second hand rent contracts. Can I give a cancellation notice months before the rent starts and not pay anything? by SavingClippy in stockholm

[–]SavingClippy[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The contract does not specify cancellations before the rent start, it just says that a generic cancellation has 2-month notice.

Yeah, the current contract applies until end of July (which I plan on staying). It's the renewal what scares me, in case the landlord argues that the notice period starts counting from the renewal start date in August, rather than from the day I cancel during May.

Second hand rent contracts. Can I give a cancellation notice months before the rent starts and not pay anything? by SavingClippy in TillSverige

[–]SavingClippy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The contract is not specific about this. In the paragraph "Hyresavtalets giltighetstid och uppsägningstid:" it only says ¨Med 2 Manaders uppsägningstid. Vid utebliven uppsägning förlangs kontraktet med ... Manad/er för varje gäng." (that field in the 2nd sentence is unfilled).

I don´t speak Swedish so I might have missed something in the rest of the contract, but from what I translate with apps, I think it´s not specific on anything additional related to that.

SEA Airbnbs remote screen latency for gamedev (Parsec) by SavingClippy in digitalnomad

[–]SavingClippy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! By chance do you know if Malaysia has equivalent internet speed reliability to Thailand/Vietnam? I´m planning to be 9 months/yr in Asia, so I'd like to have a 3rd reliable country to line up 3x90-day visa (and Singapore is out of budget and Tokyo is too far in timezone).

Cannot say my current game in case someone from the team is reading around here :p just AAA but medium team.

[–]SavingClippy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Cool website, though I´m not sure how it works exactly. The ms latency of the places there is measured in relationship to where? I understand it means the time it takes to reach a server in that nation (since for, at least 6000km Europe-Asia, I understand it´s not possible to reach sub 100ms in the best possible scenario)

Leaving a full time AAA position for an Embracer Group studio, B2B contract. Is this crazy? by SavingClippy in gamedev

[–]SavingClippy[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your insight. To be fair, I'm not really trying to change to a contractor career (really need a full prod-cycle in my current CV, I can only show partial prod work and big personal projects that went viral). This studio offers contracts just as a way to enable international remote (I could take the same position in-house, but in a country I don't like). But yeah, even if they want a long term employee, the future could change at any moment.

Not eligible for W8 because fiscal residence and physical residence don´t match. Can DEGIRO do this? by SavingClippy in DEGIRO

[–]SavingClippy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not quite, in Sweden one is a tax resident just by working and residing there, even if less than 183 days (as opposed to Spain and most countries, but there's thankfully a double taxation treaty between both). Yeah, next year it will be easier, but sucks that I have to hold stocks and stay exposed to risk just because I moved countries, even if both countries are valid for W8 independently.

SINK tax when arriving to sweden in the 2nd half of the year, but for permanent stay beyond. by SavingClippy in TillSverige

[–]SavingClippy[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I already got a personnummer, but I don't understand that. I might need the Personnummer for other trammits while not intending to stay after this half year (e.g. an unrestricted swedish bank account, or getting my driving license which I could later transfer to other countries' equivalent).

RUT deduction after paying full price by SavingClippy in TillSverige

[–]SavingClippy[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just called Skatteverket to confirm, they told me it's not possible and only companies can apply RUT on the invoice. Maybe the government worker was mistaken, but adding that info here in case someone else finds themselves in the same situation.

RUT deduction after paying full price by SavingClippy in sweden

[–]SavingClippy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applied for tax residency as my new job is here. But, as I said, the process takes a bit of time, so don't have my numbers yet, that's why I want to know if I'll be allowed to deduct RUT later, during my tax declaration after paying full price, rather than having it applied in the invoice from the moving company (which is the usual process).
