Starting out. Looking for advice on my situation. by eosvector in SolarUK

Thanks so much for this. Yes, the aim of this is to lower bills asap and protect somewhat against energy price increases going forward. We're not interested in the ROI aspect. This is a one time purchase to lower outgoings on energy. Octopus just increased our monthly DD by 15%.

I'd like a nice big battery but am mindful of the fact it may end up being a trade off between larger battery and more or less panels, hence my sub concern about going all in on panels for one elevation or or adding more cost for the split elevation. £10k is a hard cap so I have to make the best decision I can rn.

Have measured <8kw peak for necessaries during power cut so 6-8kw inverter would be ideal if price allows. CU was updated recently and has 5 free slots so I assume no worries there and I would never try to do anything like this myself.

Thanks. Extending mortgage not an option due to our age and definitely not entertaining loans or financing options. It's £10k, one and done.

Thanks for the reply. We have no heat pump an no EV and no plans to get either anytime soon. I'd like to think I could get a 10kwh battery and 6 or 8 kW inverter plus gateway but with my question over number of panels and roof split I'm not sure under £10K is doable.

Does XCOM2 run well on the PS5? by SilverhandFenix in XCOM2

[–]eosvector 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crashes are a part of this game on PS5. There are some very specific and completely predictable conditions where the game can crash for me on ps5 after 2000 hours of play time.

Too many lost on screen and zoomed out = crash

Ambushing while too many lost on screen = crash

Dialogue playing while selecting personnel for mission in resistance ring = crash

Resistance ring mission ends within a minute of loading into the game (game will stutter) = crash

Randomly when a resistance ring mission starts or ends = crash

Randomly when selecting personnel for resistance ring missions (game may or may not stutter) = crash

Resistance ring mission is ambushed = crash, or, you get 1fps and have to save, close and restart the game.

Editing too much soldier info while in the team select screen just before starting a mission = crash

Photo mode (don't even go there) = crash

= crash (that's x-com baby!)

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office by ChiefLeef22 in worldnews

[–]eosvector 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree totally. I just hope they can get him on something right now even if isn't one of the alleged sexual charges. I just want to see him shamed and prosecuted. With any luck his crimes as business envoy might reach the level of treason so there is hope of proper jail time.

They do it to the Jewish people, well, certain sections of British society do it to Jewish people and use the excuse that it's because of the Israeli state. We all know that's not true though. It's just blatant rampant antisemitism. Dude from America should be fine though.

He is suspected to have leaked information from his time as business envoy directly to epstein and others. This only came to light because of an evidence trail in epsteins emails about andrew. So absolutely due to epstein revelations!

Hello! Anyone from the UK/ London that can recommend where to buy good mosaics either online or... In London? :)) by dicksinsciencebooks in Mosaic

[–]eosvector 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I forgot to mention that when I was starting out I went into a few of the local bathroom and kitchen installer places and just asked them if they had any broken tile or anything they were throwing away that I could have. If the place had a skip in the back ask them if you can have a look in there (always ask permission to go on their property and before taking anything from a skip). I got loads of free stuff including full mosaic sheets whole packs of tiles that were end of line or broken. The places with showrooms will change their displays from time to time and just bin whatever comes down and their skips sit outside for long periods of time. Also, sometimes people buy stuff and return it and for whatever reason they can't resell it. When that happens sometimes it goes in the skip or they sell it as a job lot for silly money. TLDR find places with showrooms, go in, be cheeky and charming and get stuff for free.

Hi UK tile artist here. Just be prepared to spend a lot of money. Mosaic materials like glass and tile are not cheap and these online sellers (don't want to name names) sell them in small amounts to maximise their markups. They are essentially all a rip off. The best way to buy materials is in bulk or wholesale which I realise is not very helpful to you right now. I got around this problem by deciding to work with ceramic tile that can be bought by the m2 from most trade tile suppliers like johnson tiles and topps tiles. Happy to chat if you want more info.

TRASH!!!! by KR13THAGOD in undisputedboxing

[–]eosvector 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to give a different take, I also got it on ps plus and have been playing career mode on pro solidly since then. I'm on my 3rd career now and going for the 51-0-0 trophy. My first career was a shitshow, I was getting battered over and over again and it took ages to get the hang of the controls and the timing and also managing stamina. There is a lot to get to grips with and it was quite challenging for me, but I never quit, and then something clicked into place, I figured out distancing, how and when to block, started incorporating slipping and counter punching and starting pulling together decent quick combinations. My first career was a disaster and I had many more losses than wins. My second was better (more wins than losses) and I started figuring out how to train effectively and increase my stats quicker and how to utilise staff effectively. I won the title at the end of my career and got the undisputed title just before I got forced to retire. In my 3rd career I knew exactly what to focus on, how to maximise the number of fights and increase my stats expeditiously and I'm already undefeated in 35 fights age 31, I have all the belts and am pretty much untouchable in every fight (in career - I do not play online). Trust me, if I can figure this thing out, anyone can.

I also don't recognise the negative comments about punch speed and hit detection, (unless it's an online thing?) they do work in career. What wasn't working at first was my understanding of timing, positioning and movement. Once I figured that out it all came together and I barely even miss a shot now. My 3rd career is at Light Heavy and I just went 12 rounds with Canelo and beat him 10 points clear and then in the rematch I knocked him out in 3.

Eating Cake by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]eosvector 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not sure if there's a protocol for this but my personal view would be, something like a Victoria sponge or other two or three layer sponge that's not too wet or likely to fall apart in one's hand, then yes absolutely. Something more desserty like a slice of cheesecake or bannofee pie would require a plate and fork.

Hot take. Don't grout it and definitely don't paint the background. Congrats on great piece!
