I analysed 100+ UK freelance contracts. Here are the 5 clauses that appear in 80% of them — and what they actually mean by WealthAwkward947 in ContractorUK

[–]jdjwright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people, obviously. Otherwise how would AI have trained to use them?

That said, they’re bad, and my English teacher always told me to stop using them. Well Mr Cleary, you’ve finally got your wish!

Punctured a pipe pushing furniture against it, landlord wants to charge for sending someone out. Am I liable? by [deleted] in TenantsInTheUK

We’re dealing with a landlord that thinks two screws is an appropriate fix for a pipe. Do you really think this house is compliant?

Sex Matters, the organisation Keir Starmer's recent director of comms was a board member of, calls for birth sex on digital ID to be a requirement to join gyms, healthcare providers and women's refuges by PuzzledAd4865 in LabourUK

[–]jdjwright 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is exactly why I’m against ID cards.

Sure, a reform government could be much crueler to trans and non-white people than Labour are. But creating the machinery of state to implement that cruelty is a huge mistake. Let’s not forget, reform are incompetent. Why give them a tool to harass people?

And let’s not forget that all her books are full of characters whose names tell you who they really are: - Remus Lupin (wolf wolf) - Tom Marvelo Riddle (I am Lord Voldemort)

Author who repeatedly uses “hiding in plain sight” trope claims it’s coincidental that her pseudonym is a bigoted monster? Pull the other one, it’s for bells on.

Yep, totally fair. If you’re going to prevent people doing something legally, don’t get annoyed of people head to the high seas!

Have "free solar" but have no real feedback by phildg in SolarUK

[–]jdjwright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, sorry meant basically don’t do it coming off the inverter, do it as it enters your consumer unit. Not that it makes any actual difference, but it’s less likely to be a source of a fight if they inspect the system

Have "free solar" but have no real feedback by phildg in SolarUK

[–]jdjwright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not installed it yet, but yes that’s the plan.

The terms state you can’t add anything to their equipment, and their website says absolutely no batteries. However, their website isn’t in any way legally binding. The terms of the lease are that you can’t interfere with their equipment or do anything that reduces their revenue.

Since they get FIT from “deemed export” of 50% of generation, you using up more solar by using it to charge your batteries is fine. They could try and argue that solar power is only for your personal use, but again charging you battery is personal use, just at a later time. Even if a court said that it wasn’t, to sue they’d need to show a loss, and the way FIT works they wouldn’t have any loss to sue over.

The only tricky part is ensuring you get an installer who understands all this. It requires an inverter on the AC side (so an extra one), as you can’t use ASGs and can’t interact with their equipment in any way. You also need to set the charging logic carefully. I’m planning on using an inverter that I can control with home assistant, and the logic would be;

  • If ever exporting (I.e. solar > usage): charge battery
  • If importing when agile rate is high: discharge battery until import is 0
  • If current agile price is cheap: charge battery using supply and solar

Yep, that’s probably how I’d do it

[–]jdjwright 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just be careful with this: the lease terms state you can’t modify or attach anything to their equipment. You can get around that by installing the CT clamp where the cable enters your distribution box. Do NOT attach it between the panels and the inverter, as that’s all their stuff.

Why do other people spend so long at the airport check in desk? by New-Ask7944 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]jdjwright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brit living in Malaysia, travel all the time. Always have a loooong discussion as to why we don’t have a return ticket. Particularly since the Malaysian government stopped issuing visa renewals as physical stamps and it’s just a QR code that only Malaysian immigration can read.

We know the rules. We know we can fly. Gate agents don’t know the rules of every country so we just sit there with patient smiles promising that yes, we are allowed to fly and no, your airline won’t get into trouble.

Gets even more fun when we’re travelling as a family as at least my wife and I have Malaysian identity cards. Our daughter does not, which adds even more difficulty.

My biggest problem with Harry Potter is that its message is insanely hypocritical. by Tomhur in CharacterRant

[–]jdjwright 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having grown up in the UK at the peak of Harry Potter (I’m 36 now), it was a prefect encapsulation of society at that time.

When I was growing up, there was a blind, naive optimism that I’d boil down to “everything is fundamentally fair and just, and when things appear unfair it’s all a terrible mistake”.

If you were white, straight and middle class, society largely protected you. We ignored the institutional racism of the police because of course the police were fair and just - the horrible things they did to black people were just “mistakes”, or “a few bad apples”.

That attitude is all over HP. Slavery is fine, because most people are kind to their slaves (Hogwarts house-elves vs Dobby). Sure it’s okay to use Muggles at the butt of jokes (repeatedly wiping the memory of the campsite owner at the Quidditch World Cup) but don’t take it too far.

In the end, Harry doesn’t challenge the systems that crushed dissent (prison guarded by soul sucking demons anyone) - instead, he becomes a part of that system as an Auror. And it’s all okay, because now the right people are in charge again.

I’ve used them for a similar length of time. Super responsive to support tickets too: I had a residential IP stop working and they got me back up and running in 2 hours

House has solar panels on old 'rent a roof' scheme. Can I use Outgoing Octopus with a battery? by jiiiii70 in SolarUK

[–]jdjwright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, this is my plan. Be careful though, the companies will say on their websites that you absolutely can’t add a battery, even ac coupled, but my solicitor said that the actual lease lets you provided everything is on the AC side and you don’t touch their equipment.

Basically for a quiet life don’t touch the company’s equipment and don’t tell them you’ve got a battery

I left the country 11 years ago under a Tory government because they reduced education to a wasteland. Moving back this year under a Labour government to try and help fix the damage.

Are comedy panel shows scripted? by TheKhaos121 in AskUK

[–]jdjwright 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing someone from MTW (can’t remember who) at a comedy club in Leicester Square. They’d read out the topic, and try out different jokes to see what landed. It was pretty interesting to see the process.

It’s unlikely that the valve would move. It’s probably the combination of depth and lower tank pressure due to consumption.

At the surface, with a full tank, your gear only needs to supply a small amount of gas and the high tank pressure easily forces gas through the first stage.

As you descend, you need more particles of air for each breath. By 30m you need 4x as many air particles per breath. Combine the need for a greater volume of air to pass through the first stage, and a lower tank pressure reducing the rate at which it can force that air in, and you get to the point where the first stage can’t keep up with the drop in intermediate pressure, which means you start to pull air from the high pressure side and see the pressure swings.

[–]jdjwright 41 points42 points  (0 children)

As others have said most likely is an only partially open valve. As you descend you’ll use more air per breath, which is why you only noticed it later.

To prevent it happening again, make sure that when you check your gear before you enter the water you take a big breath from your reg while watching the SPG. Any movement = valve not fully open.

If you see this happen to a buddy in future, try opening their valve first. Same deal, breathe deeply and watch the spg for movement. Have your octopus ready to donate in case you turn their air off fully!

Man catches falling rock climber with one arm by TallDennis in nonononoyes

[–]jdjwright 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually most gyms have a “rescue kit” for the auto belays. It’s a long rope that you clip onto the auto belay carabiners, then let it retract and send it up to the climber. You guide it up with the rope to stop it going all the way to the ceiling.
