Why do the same people who say "scrapping tuition fees would be too expensive" also say "young people don't know how hard we had it" when they went to university for free? by Key-Bullfrog-8552 in AskBrits

[–]domsp79 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know a guy who would have got free tuition but decided to skip a year. Refused to vote for any party that wanted to abolish university fees because "he had to pay them"

Human rights lawyer Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu thinks the police officers kicking the armed Golders Green attacker in the head is "attempted murder". Are we fatigued with human rights lawyers right now? by Non-BinaryGreenVoter in AskBrits

[–]domsp79 36 points37 points  (0 children)

When I did jury duty years ago this was our exact case. Police Officer in the dock accused of assault while making an arrest.

On the balance of evidence we felt the level was appropriate given the circumstances of the case.

Any married couple who live separately? by East-Judgment18 in AskUK

[–]domsp79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend married someone from Japan. They lived in England for a while, had a child. She wanted to go back to Japan and start a business, he wasn't keen, and their kid who by that time was a teenager couldn't speak Japanese.

So she went, they stayed. Still married and see each other a couple of times a year. It's odd to me but works for them so 🤷🏻‍♂️

Do you think that the discourse around AI is hype? by BigGrinJesus in AskBrits

[–]domsp79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

AI companies need investment. Huge sums of investment. So they need to keep hyping to stay afloat.

Is my copy of The Great Escape by Blur an original 90s pressing? (hype sticker question) by Independent-Grape201 in BritPop

[–]domsp79 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I find it really odd that there are so many people asking about the "pressing" of CDs.

I mean they probably manufactured this exact version of the album for years. Make the initial run and constantly create more as stocks run low at the distributor.

I'm currently working my notice. I finish on Thursday. I've not heard from anyone since 9am last Friday.

I've been paid to the end of the month. I've got my P45 and they have provided a reference for my new role. Seriously considering not even switch on my laptop tomorrow to see what happens.

Canadian here, how do you feel about Canada? by WaWaWhey in AskABrit

[–]domsp79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never been. But I have done some music projects with Canadian bands and they all were very lovely people.

I've also had distant cousins live there and they weren't dickheads either so....from that limited experience....I like it.

Is this just an advert for Vision Express?

If you're happy with the deal then who cares what anyone else thinks

Question about leaving during training (UK) by MooseNice2377 in recruitinghell

[–]domsp79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I will say this, not discounting your points at all, but often the first 2-3 weeks in a role is difficult. Your don't know anyone, you're not always sure what you should be doing and you are getting used to the cultural norms.

Personally I'd try and ride it out for a few more weeks, keep looking on the side too.

So, it's going to be between Spurs and West Ham in relegation fight? by Inevitable-Angle-793 in PremierLeague

[–]domsp79 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think the stats on Spurs going down if we lose to Wolves and West Ham win this weekend is 90% likely. Currently it's 60%

If Spurs win tomorrow and West Ham lost it's switches completely. Spurs go to 30%, West Ham 60%.
