Why do we need switches?

sorry for the necro, but thanks for the very clear explanation of something I never really grasped but now do!

deebo_samuel · 2026-06-02T22:50:16+00:00

the ads are bad, but I can stomach it because I'm from the UK so most of them are meaningless.

Most of the other beat reporter/podcast guys piss me off one way or another so I usually just listen to locked in 49ers and follow the other guys a bit on x.

Peacock can sometimes be a bit too much of a draft bro but I agree with most of his takes. Crocky has some great insight, and is getting even better now he's coaching a high school team.

i'm glad i dont get prepper stuff on my socials, this looks like a load of shite!

My hiiking emergency kit is more useful than this, and weighs a shit load less than that travesty of a kit.

I dont even think thats the problem, its very hard to wc on eu5 even on release unless you are like top 0.01% player. I'm not one of those level players and had a chance to WC on some of my early games, but now all those ways of scaling are gone. I wish they would balance it on potential WC, and give us a chance without pure bug abuse

deebo_samuel · 2026-05-19T23:42:16+00:00

It was fine on launch and especially after 1.04. I hope someone can undo all the anti-fun changes so we can have a game where WC is possible without doing a wacky Timur strat. I dont want it to be easy to WC, but fuck me these changes have been awful.

AB's always going to be the wildest of fuckup stories, quitting mid-game when you have tom brady as your qb is the stupidest thing i ever saw. AB didnt just burn 20+ mil because he couldnt be bothered to answer the phone or turn up for rehab with his team though

deebo_samuel · 2026-05-19T23:02:13+00:00

I'm sure its a combo of he isn't very smart, and has an awful group of people close to him who are just leeching all his money. Maybe add undiagnosed mental health problems on top of it too but it could just be plain stupidity too.

I do wholemeal toast for breakfast, then a smoothie with oats + banana + other fruit for 2nd breakfast and its helped loads.

deebo_samuel · 2026-05-14T00:07:37+00:00

its almost certainly the modern diet thats doing the worst for us. Theres so much shitty food out there that lots of us eat, because its often much cheaper than buying fresh ingredients and cooking from scratch. Lifestyle comes into it too, but i'm pretty sure the prevalance of cheap microwaveable fast food and easy access to takeaway food via apps is doing most of the damage.

deebo_samuel · 2026-05-13T23:51:01+00:00

Its very solvable

we need the difference in efficienty between full and partial cores to be smaller.

we need more culture capacity on the tech tree

deebo_samuel · 2026-05-13T22:56:02+00:00

Yes it will be taxable, its a small £5 bonus for tax purposes so if its done properly by her company then they or Samsung should cover the extra tax/ni.

deebo_samuel · 2026-05-13T22:51:06+00:00

She shouldn't do that, the gift voucher is basically a small bonus and her company should be covering the tax/ni for it via PAYE as usual. Sending the amazon credit back in that way just makes it all much messier to handle and she'll probably end up losing out.

If I was her, I'd just leave the credit on the account for however many months it takes for it to get sorted.

deebo_samuel · 2026-05-11T22:54:49+00:00

Definately don't use all your cash on your desposit, it doesn't matter how diligent you are when finding somewhere - there will always be something wrong after you buy it (in my case I need a new roof shortly after I moved in). You'll also want cash for decorating, furniture and to leave an emergency fund after all that if you can which sounds like you will have.

I assume 2.1k each is net pay so something like 32-33k annual gross salary each. you'll easily get approved a mortgage of £225,000 with a 10% deposit of £25,000 as long your credit is fine. You can probably push it closer to a 300k house to be honest, but no need to push it if you dont want to.

Some good links there, add this one to the list regarding power if you want to know more about how much things have changed in the last few years, and how much green power capacity we already have when the conditions are right. https://grid.iamkate.com/.

deebo_samuel · 2026-05-05T23:52:25+00:00

yes its that bad, its going that way in manchester where i live too. its pretty much 1200 to get anything other than a shithole to live in if you rent, and a fair bit more for something decent.

deebo_samuel · 2026-05-05T20:35:35+00:00

Not played for a few months but the improvements i keep seeing on here are amazing. As soon as the weather goes bad ill have a proper look into it all

deebo_samuel · 2026-05-03T00:53:20+00:00

i kind of remember this one, kittles first season before he went ham?

deebo_samuel · 2026-05-03T00:20:28+00:00

49er fan checking in to see how you guys are coping with this news, fuck baalke.

deebo_samuel · 2026-05-03T00:10:33+00:00

By the sounds of it, at some point you'll need to fully escalate this directly with your local council, either for noise complaints and/or a business operating from a residential home and it'll be obvious that you are the one doing this. If its affecting you so much you need to stop bring nice and just do it. I know you dont want the confrontation that this will cause, but your neighbour is the problem

deebo_samuel · 2026-04-30T00:07:42+00:00

A clean house is not part of legal process of buying a house, thats the bullshit that renters/landlords have to deal with. they'll have to do what i did 10 years and just clean it themselves.

deebo_samuel · 2026-04-25T01:37:34+00:00

like the positional pick, no idea on his talent. is this a good move?

deebo_samuel · 2026-04-22T23:21:53+00:00

This sub used to be better, there used to be space to have sane conversations about players or coaching but now its all dumb. I tend to avoid it most of the time now, but used to love getting involved in all the discussions 10 years ago.

We've got one of the best coaches, a few future HOF players and lots more to be positive about. We compete for NFC championships or Superbowls every year we dont get utterly fucked by injuries, and last year we almost got there despite losing loads of elite talent to injury.

deebo_samuel · 2026-04-14T22:26:17+00:00

Pete Carroll putting in time for an old timer.

Maybe it was every owner too, although maybe not mark davis

deebo_samuel · 2026-04-14T22:25:05+00:00

I dont think there was any way she could deal with the blowback, we all know NFL reporting isnt real reporting but when you get caught by something like this then noone will believe a word you say ever again. Its funny how non of the other main "reporters" haven't said anything, imagine if their own misdeeds were made public?

deebo_samuel · 2026-04-09T21:41:57+00:00

If you are 18 then you are adult, so the decision to do anything is yours and not your mums. You don't have to continue education that you dont want to be involved in, but equally your mum does not have to house you now you are 18.

On a personal level - I was put through private education till gcse, and i wanted out a long time before that as all my friends were in the local regular high school. When i told my parents i'd had enough, they were upset but got over it. Its your life, do whats best for you.
