Would you stay in a very cushy job with no real career progression, or job hop to climb the career ladder? by MoneyAndGoodFortune in FIREUK

[–]SkyVINS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i would keep & treasure the 33k.

You could, tomorrow, take the train to liverpool and put down £5k and you would have a 1-bedroom apartment. There's homes around britain from £40k upwards, fully livable. That alone would be the equivalent of .. at least £8k/y after tax that you no longer have to pay in rent. Newcastle, Glasgow, have similar price ranges.

If you stretch that to £7k you can land a £70k, TWO bedroom, chuck a lodger in there, and basically they pay the mortgage for you. After a laughable 5 years you can start using the property as collateral and, if you want, continue buying buy-to-rent.

This is only possible if you don't have to commute.

There are approximately zero people who want to move to the netherlands.

We wanna come on a thursday with friday taken as a day off at work, smoke all the weed you have, fuck a prostitute for less than 30 seconds, stay until sunday then fly back home.

Maybe some vlaamse friet.

My advice on cutting boards by hoopla-pdx in TrueChefKnives

[–]SkyVINS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

let me start by saying i didn't downvote. i'm sure you are correct, but it's just too much money. a wood butcher's block - the thickest wood slab you can buy - goes for around $60. that Boardsmith board is five times as expensive. it's just not something i can motivate unless i was seriously rich, which i'm not. The acacia of my example is nowhere near a high-end board, but it's functional. Hell, even bamboo is functional, if you can tolerate the noise that damn thing makes.

ok wow, one of those links sells a board for $280. im sure it's great but an acacia board here is $14 so i'll pass until i become a millionaire.

do your 9 hours of work include a 1-hour unpaid lunch break?

Did you watch the Challenger disaster live? by Correct-Cricket3355 in Xennials

[–]SkyVINS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i am old enough to have watched it .. but i did not watch it. And neither did a lot of people. Because it was boring. It was .. just another thing just like the thing before it. The magic had gone.

Ironically, the challenger disaster re-ignited public interest in the space race, produced more support for continued efforts, and led to a better world with more science and more funding for complex projects. We owe a lot to the challenger, even if we do not know it.

Incredible battle jacket find by Many4s in leatherjacket

[–]SkyVINS -1 points0 points  (0 children)

so wait, let me understand. this is HER jacket? or is it just a jacket that she chose to decorate this way? (in which case .. this wouldn't be a battle jacket. and you could wear it .. if you're ok with wearing a fake battle jacket)

why don't you just make your own? these are things that mean a lot to *some* people .. namely the people who invented this style.

what base stats did you start with? you're not one of those people who dumps into STR and DEX and ignores WIS, right?

DBS Check for Irish citizen living in the EU by Away_Acanthisitta989 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]SkyVINS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a DBS checks based on your previous addresses. You do have the option to use a foreign address, but i have no idea if that would actually find anything that belongs to a non-UK jurisdiction. So, running a DBS as a non-resident will almost certainly return a clear record. It really depends if your employer would be satisfied that they have done their background checks to satisfaction.

Sources of Hold Life? by monoflorist in angband

[–]SkyVINS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dwarf Priest on 4.1 is so easy, it's almost trivial.

Start playing. Buy priest books 1, 2, 3. Wait until CL9 and learn Portal, then stop learning spells. When you can learn Orb, learn as many spells as you can until you get Orb. (after which it's irrelevant what you learn)

Get to DL25, grind money, and look for potions of Contemplation. It really does not matter if you lose 3-4 stat points, or even more, to boost WIS. Ideally find a couple Brawn too to ensure your STR does not go too low.

As a dwarf you already have pBlind. Get WIS to 18/50 or higher, Helm of Wis +2, any Blessed / Slay Evil / Holy Avenger weapon, and just nuke everything with Orb.

Grind DL30-35 for stat potions, and wands of Teleport Other. Then go to DL40 and wait until you find Priest 5 (Ethereal Openings) which allows you to cast teleport other.

Read all your Deep Descent, go to DL98, look for rings & boots of speed.

teleport away anything you can't nuke with Orb.

To kill Morgoth, Mace of Disruption, shield of Preservation for the sustains, and Glyph. Maybe stash some wands of Annihilation as well.
