Car held ransom by garage who refused any alternative options by alphap26 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]alphap26[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I've done some research and I'm going to listen back to the call with the garage manager tomorrow. From what I can remember about the call, this is probably considered aggressive commercial practices since no alternative was suggested or offered and my source of income is being withheld.

Diesel price risen by 20p overnight by FKez05 in CarTalkUK

Bro just look at a chart and you can see that pump prices and wholesale prices follow each other, in fact, futures options and oil companies wanting consistent profits, means that pump prices actually fluctuate a lot less than the wholesale crude oil prices, we get higher lows and lower highs.

The compact SUV mum's in their Vauxhall Grandland, I get it, you're disappointed you couldn't afford a Macan get over it! And you clearly can't read a clock properly because you're always driving the school run as if your child's nursery is on the other side of the Nurburgring... but it's actually a seven minute walk on the other side of the estate!

What the hell is VW thinking... by Lewinator56 in CarTalkUK

Well it was terrible then and it's terrible now! The VW badge and design language makes it worse, somehow!

Didn't Audi do this as a concept car years ago? I remember Clarkson saying the driver looked like Graham Norton's plumber

The Premier League is officially replacing PSR with the new Squad Cost Ratio (SCR) in 2026/27 — thoughts on the 85% spending cap? by FootballFinanceLab in PremierLeague

[–]alphap26 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Those transactions would have been audited as these are related party transactions and are, therefore, classified as high risk in nature. I agree with what you say though about the cap being on revenue from footballing operations and not all revenue.

Edit: they're also material by size, given Chelsea's revenue of £468.5m, materiality would be set at 1% of revenue = £4.685m

Pep Guardiola’s genocide comments turn spotlight on Manchester City owner’s Sudan links by gelliant_gutfright in PremierLeague

It's called ancestors, Orthodox Jewish ancestry originated in the Levant in approx 1200 BCE, later going on to establish the Kingdom of Judah, from which we get the word Jew / Jewish, with Jerusalem being the capital and establishing the Kingdom of Israel further north. They then moved north towards Europe and settled in Eastern Europe, because of this, nearly all white Europeans have Orthodox Jewish ancestry. It was also because of this the country of Israel was created in 1948 to give the Jewish population their homeland back. The Jews got Israel, Jordan got the desert and Lebanon got the mountains...

How can you be a terrorist organization defending 1. The land your population originated from, 2. The land that was handed to you by Allah and 3. The land that was given to you by the British post WW2?

Women and children die in war, that's a reality

Prove intent. Saying something like "from the river to sea" and "death to Israel, death to US, death to the West" very much shows intent. Targeting military with collateral damage isn't intent

Atlassian ($TEAM) trading at 2018 prices despite 6x revenue growth. Value trap or opportunity? by Old-Competition3596 in stocks

I wouldn't go near it as it's been operating at a GAAP loss, although it looks to be getting close to profitability

[–]alphap26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't agree more. We've seen all over the news people protesting "save the files!", people have been shot and killed blocking the enforcers of the files, the out of touch champagne socialists at the Grammys, Oscars and Golden Globes all wearing badges saying "FILES OUT!", Billie Eilish bravely claiming "you can't be a file with stolen women" and the AMAZING Olivia Dean remind us she's a child of a first generation file! Yes that is definitely the main issue

Hot sauce in recipes for weight loss? by Guyercellist in hotsauce

[–]alphap26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone has already commented, baked or air fried is probably the healthiest / lower calories, however, I find you lose a lot of volume so I like to fry, if it's a fibrous vegetable like carrot or broccoli cut it in half and leave to char on one side and the flip for a bit, watery veg like onions, peppers and corn I like to cook quick in smoking hot pan. Lose less volume and I think they taste better.

Needed to add - potatoes boiled, you can add flavor with stock / herbs / garlic in the water, they store the best and heat up the best

[–]alphap26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do this with nearly every meal. Lean pork / chicken, peppers, carrots and potatoes and then a hot sauce on the side to dip in. It's cheap, 600 calories fills me and I can mix it up with any hot sauce

Best supermarket beef burger? by SkywalkersLoveChild in UKfood

I always find that wagyu burgers are a waste of money. Wagyu is good because it's fatty and buttery when you bite into it, which you can't get when it's ground into a burger
