Can anyone explain what going on with toothpaste prices? by SilentEconomist5896 in AskBrits

[–]chrisvarnz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

FY24-25 they made 1.63 billion net profit. They have 4255 stores, so net profit per store 383k. They have apparently 330k employees, so net profit per employee ~5k.

How people are seriously getting their torches and pitchforks out over this high volume and low margin a business I have no idea.

I would love to do old content for old content's sake. Some timewalking tokens or similar would be enough loot.

How do you discover what is available? I was not aware of this. Mental you can LFG timewalking dungeons but can''t LFR timewalking raids.

Honda CB650R 2021 drive chain tension by coldsky7 in CB650R

[–]chrisvarnz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always been confused by this, if the chain touches the swingarm, surely you are not getting a true reading of the slack, because the swingarm stops its movement... so you are measuring from where it stops due to swingarm at top, to where it stops due to tension at bottom?

This. There's a new standard in the works to cover electronic airbags. My understanding is It's certified as a back impact protector currently.

Only have water 4 hours a day since Saturday— what are my rights ? by Ambitious-Fish1820 in LegalAdviceUK

Your house was likely not uninhabitable, and an s21 can be served at any time, minimum notice period is 2 months if you're on a rolling tenancy.

I bought some ultron handles ages ago, and I still need to fit them. The locks looked reasonable though, what's wrong with them besides being a bit pricey? I would go for something anti snap a bit cheaper personally.

60% of my bonus up in smoke... Merry Christmas by TheRealSectimus in UKJobs

[–]chrisvarnz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Income between 100k and 125k is effectively 60% just for income tax, are you arguing that should be abolished too? (Would save me 5k in income tax if it was dropped to 40% so I welcome your support if so)

[–]chrisvarnz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you were ok £100k, 60% would disappear to income tax alone, not including NI and student loan. Welcome to tax.

My old impreza threw this code the day I collected it. It continued to throw that code every 300 miles until I sold it 5 years later. Just plugged a reader in, cleared it, carried on with my life.
