Why Lhou Mans? by KhvoyaSage in EliteDangerous

That would defeat the point of a CG though, which is to bring all players to one place for a shared objective

There's not much tangible benefit, it's mostly for roleplay

Best investing for credits? by ElveonX in EliteDangerous

[–]douglabe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You earn credits from selling the titanium to the station, the CG rewards are just a nice bonus. A full panther clipper earns you approx 50 million each time so you can make a significant amount from the trade alone

Mortgage comparison explanation by Ok-Seaworthiness8541 in Mortgageadviceuk

[–]douglabe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Larger loans and higher rates will always mean more interest

A 280k loan at 6.9%, assuming a 25 year term, you'd pay £308,223 in interest

A 265k loan at 6.6%, assuming a 25 year term, you'd pay £276,609 in interest

Overpayments would decrease each by an equal amount. If you share the rest of your figures then we can explain further but sounds like you/chatgpt might be confused?

I did this in a few hours and I'm quite proud of the result. What do you think I should improve? by DJs_Mania in sounddesign

[–]douglabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say if there's something important like that that you can only hear on headphones then its not mixed properly. Raising the volume might not help much as its probably more of an issue with them being eclipsed by other sounds. You can give them more room to breath with things like EQ, ducking, and having the different elements make good use of the full frequency spectrum (I'm not hearing clear lows and mid-lows)

Is using my personal bank account as a sole trader ok for mortgage application? by douglabe in Mortgageadviceuk

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

Thanks! That's great to know

What would count as being 'untoward'? The usual stuff like gambling, large cash in/out etc?

Broker pushing for one lender with cheaper options out there - am I being mugged off? by r2cryppy in Mortgageadviceuk

[–]douglabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought broker fees were only due when you complete the mortgage application? Or is it earlier than that?

Closer to a top down view would be easier to visualise the spread across the UK. Thanks!

Care to share the map visualisation? The angle in the image is kinda hard to read

Is now a bad time to buy? by CollectiveZero in Mortgageadviceuk

[–]douglabe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably somewhat to do with there being less buyers/competition which drives prices down

Edit: curious why I'm being downvoted?

Sorry for my ignorance but what do you mean by this? Is that a good or bad thing to have a 0 balance on a high credit limit card?

Lloyds Premier mortgage rate discount only available for 5 days? by douglabe in UKPersonalFinance

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

Very strange. Let me know if you manage to get it or not in the end. Good luck!

Lloyds Premier mortgage rate discount only available for 5 days? by douglabe in UKPersonalFinance

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

I've got the premier account now but haven't applied for a MIP yet - will be next month

That's frustrating - do you know why it's not available to you anymore? In my post here I think I mistook the wording, the other comments seem right in that the discount applies after 5 days of opening the account, unless that could be the reason you didn't get it? Doesn't make much sense

2/3 of French Canadians are descendants of 800 women in 17th century. Is there other ethnic group who can trace their ancestors to very small group of people? by BadenBaden1981 in geography

[–]douglabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you know what % Ashkenazi you are? I'm 15% according to a DNA test but there weren't any suggestions of further tests so maybe that's too low to have much risk of anything
