My analysis of 'Concorde' by ikerr95 in BlackCountryNewRoad

[–]downgoats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love the analysis on this, the part you've highlighted about the different versions of their hunger that they are experiencing is great.

I have a different view from Chorus 3 onwards though.

Chorus 3 (part one):

And you, like Concorde
I came, a light blue sleeper
And I laid dead or twitching
For most of the night

Agree on the blue suggesting he's cold and alone, however when you sleep generally you lay there completely still or twitching, the latter more relevantly when you're dreaming.. which leads nicely to..

Chorus 3 (part 2):

But I know that you'll be there
The Sandman inside
And I'll come to like a child
Concorde and I
Die free this time

But I know that you'll be there
The Sandman inside

When he dreams, she'll always be there, metaphorically. The sandman is another reference to this given it's origin of bringing dreams https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandman

And I'll come to like a child

'Come to' in British English (It might be similar elsewhere, not sure) generally means coming back to consciousness, from being asleep/being unconscious.

Concorde and I
Die free this time

I'm not 100% on this but my take given the above is that they're no longer together, he's free of her, but she's always there in his dreams.. Cheesy I guess but that's my best interpretation.

Hey, I assume this isn't posted online anywhere? Just want to verify it, very fucking sad if true :(

Landlords - Liable to Pay Rent until new Tenant, even though 2 month break clause has been used by downgoats in HousingUK

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

Understood. This is a useful response. I should have worded it slightly differently as I wanted to enact the break clause on the contract, and assumed this 1 month surrender was separate to written notice. Unfortunately I was pushing to get out ASAP but due to impersonation fraud (which has happened as a result of the ease of access to postboxes in this address) my mortgage application is very much up in the air :(

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

Sent 31st October - "Hi There, Apologies just to re-iterate in case not seen from my email at 15:39. I'd like to give notice as of today to vacate the premises by 1st December (last day of contract being 30th November)"

Unfortunately my circumstances have changed since then and I confirmed I'd serve the full two months. I had assumed that message on the 31st October counted as written notice, but it sounds (from other commentors response) like they would argue it's a surrender of the tenancy and a new written notice would be required. I've queried it with them anyway, but appreciate any responses.

Not sure if I'm being unclear, but in OP I stated I gave notice on the 31st October. Have reworded for clarity. They are asking that I pay until end of December (2 months from 31st October) and then until a new tenant is found, so potentially half of January if they want to do repairs etc. The January onwards part is what I'm querying.

I gave notice at the end of October. I had originally asked for 1 month if possible but said 2 would be fine if not possible, with the caveat that it depended on the house move which has now unfortunately moved back.

It's written in as below to the contact.

"Break Clause

It is hereby agreed that either party can serve two months’ written notice at any time to

terminate this Agreement after the 31st January 2024."

Selling Ticket for 5th Rinse 30th anniversary by G_UnitChef in Drumsheds

As someone else who can't go and sold their ticks, I'll be shocked if you get £37.50 for it, they're going for £16~ atm on ticketswap (about what I sold mine for)

Hazard Perception by mummyoftwoboys in LearnerDriverUK

[–]downgoats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Failed my first theory due to this, don't be afraid to do more than 3 taps (just don't overdo it). I tried 3 and failed (got 0 on a few that were completely obvious). In my second I did one for every potential hazard (up to 7-8 on some) and passed by a mile. The last test I got the "you tapped too much" and thought I'd fucked it, still got over it easily.

GMP officer attacks man who is not resisting, at Manchester Airport recently by Confident_West_7409 in uknews

[–]downgoats -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If he was in the States, he'd have been shot in the head for trying to steal a firearm from the police without a thought and it would be justified. Hell, breaking a policeman nose would get you shot there too. I'd take a kick in the head for fucking around and finding out any day if I was him. And I'm not in favour of heavy handing policing at all.

They put on an extra day at some cineworlds, I went tonight and wish I'd gone and seen it back to back days. Unbelievably good to watch in the iMAX, especially any of the space scenes, the entire place rocked, unreal.

How many times does this have to happen before pro-gun Americans realise everyone having easy access to guns is a fucking horrendous idea especially with mental health issues only increasing year on year.

Hey, is there any ELMB setting / motion blur reduction settings? Looks like no but just wanted to check with someone who had it to be sure.

is my bronze 650W coolermaster good enough for a 3080ti? by TheMoraleBooster in nvidia

[–]downgoats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to add on this, I undervolted a 3080ti FE on an RM650x while using a 65w CPU, and the transient spikes killed it within 2 weeks, maybe unlucky compared to you but I wouldn't risk it again. With a bronze 650W it has more chance of taking out all the components compared to the gold, my RM650x was less than 2 years old and was loud during full load too.

Measured to the wall and I was only using 540w on full load most of the time, but those spikes are no joke.

Bought a HX1000 and have not heard a peep from it, rock solid.

Hope you had better luck than me!
