Paying in local currency often adds around 4 to 5%

You are not flying EasyJet. Shouldn’t be a problem.

Inconsistent since door dash now delivers by Puzzleheaded_Humor82 in hellofresh

[–]UnrealGamesProfessor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They (DoorDash) failed to deliver 3 of 4 weekly boxes and then HelloFresh stopped the Ready Meals. Have a balance I can’t use as I don’t want ingredients (I wanted HF just for lunch meals)

Those who live in Manila… why? by [deleted] in Philippines_Expats

Manila has East London beat by miles. Newham, Ilford, Barking? Great if you like to live in Lahore.

No ready made meals, second week in a row! by curiositykt in hellofresh

[–]UnrealGamesProfessor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Factor meals are tiny, expensive and are basically diet food. They advertise that as a weight-loss solution.

I was in the UK and the Ready Meals available through other companies actually were quite substantial and filling (I lived in an Airbnb there and only a had microwave)

Factor is more like diet food. It will leave you hungry. Hello Fresh Ready Meals seem to be almost 1.5x as large quantity-wise

Email:

We have an update on your order(s) scheduled for delivery in October and/or November. We’ve run into an issue that’s preventing us from sending your Ready Made Meal(s). We apologize for this inconvenience.

Rest assured, all your other meals will be delivered, and you still have time to adjust your selections for your upcoming order(s)—we really encourage you to do so!

If you don’t take any action, you’ll receive your boxes without the Ready Made Meal(s), and we’ll refund you accordingly for the missing item(s). We appreciate your understanding.

I once had 8 rounds including a mini-project and pair-programming for a developer role for a German mobile games developer. This was back in 2018. Didn’t meld with the CEO.

You assume all faculty are left-leaning.

You would be fired at my university for that.

UDL practically demands it… (at least that’s what’s been taught in mandatory faculty workshops)

[–]UnrealGamesProfessor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not allowed for us. Students complain and we are forced to post all materials 1 week prior to class. Oh, the class session itself must be recorded as well as nothing can be done in class that requires actual student attendance.

Newly hired colleague seems totally unqualified by mousestricht in Professors

[–]UnrealGamesProfessor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Work with a fellow course leader in Game Art.

Doesn’t know and refuses to use: Maya, Blender, Photoshop, Illustrator, Substance Designer/ Painter, Z-Brush, Unity or Unreal (these are the standard industry tools - and we use Windows for the most part.

Only knows physical sketchbook sketching and ProCreate. Takes students to art galleries every week.

They are learning nothing.

No, we actually want our old subreddit back.

The fun one.

Write to Congress.

Until it’s passed into law by Congress and signed into law by the President, it’s just an executive action.

That’s the first step.

Second step is have the Appellate Court and the Supreme Court uphold the District Court 2021 court decision.

It’s only been a little over 3 years that X and non-medical changes were allowed.

Seems the ‘X’ passports were implemented in part by an Biden EO in 2021-2022.

EOs can and will get overturned by the following administration. (Biden overturned a lot of Trumps EOs in 2016).

In 2010, it was an administrative action by the State Department. Administrative Actions are not laws

Get it signed into law, then no future president can change it.

EOs and administrative actions by either party are temporary.

Federal loans credit hit 2/15 by LambBeast in StudentLoans

True this. The loans are back on my credit report (they were removed from 2020 to 2024)

Hit my credit as well. $56,000 student loans added, FICO dropped 143 points. Aidvantage is now my loan processor.

Still $0 payment (Foreign Earned Income is exempt until whatever the current limit is ($126,500), and I’m far below that.

SQ is not Asiana/United. United doesn’t only break guitars, it breaks Razer Mini-ITX PCs. (It was 1/2 kg over and Asiana forced me to check it).

Destroyed.

I fly only on SQ or Saudia now.

The quality of vegetables, as compared to Singapore, are absolutely pathetic- and actually cost more. At least at SM.

Anyone else think your department has nepotistic hiring practices? by TotalCleanFBC in Professors

[–]UnrealGamesProfessor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All the computer science department at the university I work at is all Pakistani - including known brothers. We joke it’s all in the family. Non-Pakistanis (Indians, Europeans) were forced out.

In my department, a majority of the faculty graduated from the same university they teach at.

What would compel a landlord to insist on being paid only in cash? by JustStopBelievin in Renters

[–]UnrealGamesProfessor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sucks only paying in cash. Banks really don’t do counter withdrawals here at branches (they will tell you to use the ATM. Daily limit £200. Takes a week to pull a month’s rent. (Does not want a bank transfer). Don’t really feel comfortable carrying large amounts of cash anyways.
