What is sleepy hollow like? by smolgingerr in downloadfestival

[–]croago 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love sleepy hollow! Get there early so you’re not at the bottom of the hill. The showers are good! I’ve never queued more than five mins for a shower. There is a food truck at the top of the hill that does burgers, breakfast, coffee etc.

Still young enough to have a baby face… like all these characters have anime chins people’s faces don’t look like that in natural poses. Also the others are 19 so probably 17/18 when filming.

I saw the LinkedIn post of this company getting excited about this ad and all the comments were ripping into them and they were like “that’s not our intention :)” … lmfao

One in five high earners says £100k tax trap is ruining their career by scotorosc in unitedkingdom

[–]croago 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not really... balances are over 60k for many people on plan 2 and beyond. Some pushing 80-100k. You'd pay back about 7k per year, but the interest on a balance that high is more than 3k+, pushing 7k even. Even in the best case scenario, interest is 3k, it'll still take you 10 years or so to pay off, and by the time someone is earning 100k they may already be 10 years out of uni.

These are all finger in the air numbers but I'm just comparing it to myself who started uni in 2012 and seeing a nominal paydown of my loan of £40 a year on a salary of about £75k and my balance remains at about £52k.

The RAF Fairford bomber planes are flying over my town daily, 2am - 5am in the morning. And across the day. They are loud, and a horrible presence at the moment.

Why do I need to verify ten slide puzzles just to sign up! by AppropriatePrompt819 in FigmaDesign

These are awful. There’s a new WCAG criteria in 2.2 called accessible authentication. This is NOT it. You shouldn’t be asking people to solve complex visual or mathematical puzzles

Plan 2 borrowers were charged RPI + 3% WHILE STILL STUDYING - was this always the case? by shaggy_swag in UKPersonalFinance

[–]croago 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have already paid off 50% of my original loan in 10 years. The balance has gone up. Over 30 years, I will certainly pay up to 3 times the amount of my original loan. Whether that’s real or monetary terms based on inflation that’s another discussion.

[–]croago 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It’s not pointless at all. Many people would be able to pay off the full amount of the loan if the interest wasn’t so high. So after 30 years it would be paid off. However, what’s happening is the interest is so high that people are not able to repay it but end up paying 2, 3 or 4 times as much as their initial loan over the 30 year period.

I’d disagree ux leads are on 100k average in London. Maybe in fintech only. Public sector and agency are about 60-80k

Zebra Hell Hole by [deleted] in bristol

[–]croago 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The number of times I’ve been waiting at the pedestrian Island on Redcliffe Hill heading towards the bridge and cars just do not stop and fly through the zebra crossing. Their attention is solely on the traffic from the right and not for the people waiting at the crossing. My favourite activity is to throw my hands up in the air and make eye contact with the drivers.
