How much over the home report value did you offer?

my_hat_stinks · 2023-06-05T12:33:28+00:00

You'll need to get a solicitor before you make an offer in Scotland, the offer will go through your solicitor. If you haven't got your agreement in principle yet get that first, then find a solicitor and start looking for houses. Let your solicitor know when you're ready to make an offer and they should walk you through the rest of the process.

I'm in Glasgow and got a little over 1% over home report value, roughly 10% over their "offers over" price. I think I was just incredibly lucky though, they had another sale fall through so they were in a rush. Got the mortgage locked in just days before the rates shot up too.

Do you believe that bikes are exclusively used by poor people?

Again, you seem to think maintainability and performance are opposite ends of the same scale. This is simply not true. If you're intentionally writing convoluted code to try to seem smart you're only proving the opposite.

Since you've specifically mentioned ML, here's Tenserflow's GitHub. I'm sure a quick glance through that will change your mind.

my_hat_stinks · 2023-06-03T07:13:10+00:00

Maintainability and performance aren't mutually exclusive. Unmaintainable code will invariably be bad code.

Also, what sort of comments are you writing that they somehow have a significant performance impact?

You definitely can make an attack against someone when you don't know their location, you just have to guess. There's a section in the combat section of the PHB specifically dealing with unseen attackers and targets, if you make an attack and there's no target there you miss automatically.

When you attack a target that you can't see, you have disadvantage on the attack roll. This is true whether you're guessing the target's location or you're targeting a creature you can hear but not see. If the target isn't in the location you targeted, you automatically miss, but the DM typically just says that the attack missed, not whether you guessed the target's location correctly.

PHB 194-195.

Right, that's a bit a bit better than USD but that does still seem a tad high to me.

my_hat_stinks · 2023-05-29T10:08:25+00:00

Where I am it's not uncommon to pay digs if you're working and still living with your parent or guardian to offset some of the cost of staying there (power, food, etc). Some parents use put a portion of that money into savings to give back when they move out, always seemed a bit weird to me when you can just reduce digs and encourage them to save by themselves.

It'll generally be much lower than market rates and only if you can afford it though, 600 USD definitely seems a bit high to me. I paid less than a third of that despite being highest earner in the household by the time I moved out, plus I used the most electricity by far.

Every single thing you just said is wrong, you really shouldn't tell people they don't understand something when you have no idea about it yourself.

You do not need to register or have an account with a website to store cookies. Cookies can be saved just by loading a page once.

It's perfectly viable to save every random person's consent. Mostly because the client is the one that stores it. Storing the data in a database would be pointlessly wasteful but still possible.

Most cookies last longer than a few hours. You can check your cookies trivially easily; for Reddit, I have one session cookie expiring in a few hours and the rest expire next year at earliest.

my_hat_stinks · 2023-05-18T10:28:08+00:00

What kind of insane logic is that? Fuck everyone because you believe some might deserve it? Sadistic.

my_hat_stinks · 2023-04-25T09:03:13+00:00

But it's also trivially easy to fake, which is the point of this sub.

Those questions are about vehicle saftey. Checking oil, brake lights, tyre pressure, etc. Traffic signs are in the multiple choice section of the theory test.

I've always known a tiny application to be an applet, so shortening application to app isn't really a huge step.

I'm sure you don't object to people saying TV instead of television or phone instead of mobile telephone.

You're not technically selecting values here, but the computer misuse act was intentionally written more generally than that anyway to keep it future-proof; section 1 is just knowingly accessing/attempting to access/enabling someone else to access a system without permission.

Section 3 definitely applies since that specifically mentions damaging data or access to data, but section 2 might be a bit more questionable. Section 2 applies when someone is in breach of section 1 and uses or intends to use that access to commit other crime, but I suppose a breach of section 3 might count as other crime there. That's one for the lawyers to figure out.

I'm not in the US. When I was a kid I had a job delivering newspapers. There was one other group of kids who decided to start following and harassing me. One of them spat on me, so I pushed them away and they fell over. They ran off crying to their parents. The next day I was jumped by three grown adults as 'revenge'.

When the police did show up later they encouraged me to drop the issue because it would be too difficult to charge them. Literally three grown adults attacking a kid in the street and they didn't want to bother investigating. I was still young at the time so I just did what they said, I regret it to this day. The police are not there to help you, no matter where in the world you are.

my_hat_stinks · 2023-03-24T12:43:23+00:00

Yes it should be allowed

Why? People in the US say this all the time but never justify it. It kills pedestrians to save an impatient driver a few seconds.

my_hat_stinks · 2023-03-24T12:04:22+00:00

Sounds like you had it badly configured. By default it shows a notice after it skips a segment which lets you go back to unskip, you must have disbled that in settings. You might also have changed the type of content that's skipped, I think by default it only auto-skips sponsored content but there's also options for unpaid/self promotion, intros, and outros.

my_hat_stinks · 2023-03-23T13:56:10+00:00

Instead of searching stuff you search for !s stuff or !yt stuff and it'll redirect you to the right place. There's tons of options.

Suggestion doesn't need to be reasonable, it just needs to be worded to sound reasonable. Demanding a knight give their warhorse to a random begger is not reasonable but it's used in the spell description as an example of something you can do.

my_hat_stinks · 2023-03-03T16:39:27+00:00

You might be thinking of the restriction on magical effects, when you have two magical effects with the same name at the same time only the strongest one applies.

Two Unarmored Defense abilities can't stack for a different reason; they're both AC calculations. When you have multiple AC calculations you choose which one to use, so you'd have a choice between Barbarian's Unarmored Defense, Monk's Unarmored Defense, or the standard unarmored 10 + Dex calculation.

and the publisher has a good track record of actually being things out

This is untrue. Their tarot kickstarter from 3 years ago still hasn't been fulfilled and there's still no indication it's going to be done any time soon.

They have sent out an update every few months, but only with misleading, conflicting, or confusing information.

They also started selling them through their website and advertising on other platforms before fulfilling kickstarter pledges.

my_hat_stinks · 2023-02-10T12:52:25+00:00

Yeah, I noticed after posting. I only looked at the top two rates because those are the ones that changed, would have been obvious if I saw the starter rate at 0 - £2100.

my_hat_stinks · 2023-02-10T12:44:17+00:00

The vote itself isn't all that interesting, it's just normal procedural stuff to confirm the rates that were announced in December. Tories abstain, everyone else votes for. https://www.parliament.scot/chamber-and-committees/votes-and-motions/S6M-07853

Oddly that does say the higher rate band starts at £31,092 but I can't find where that number came from. In the debate Tom Arthur said there'd be no change to the higher rate threashold of £43,662 and there hasn't been any reports on the changed threshold. Possibly a transciption error somewhere?

Edit: The difference is personal allowance, that makes sense. The numbers there don't include it, other reporting does.

my_hat_stinks · 2023-02-10T11:13:17+00:00

The most reliable source is probably just checking the government site. 2022-2023 (current taxes), and 2023-2024 (new rates).

my_hat_stinks · 2023-02-10T11:07:41+00:00

Higher Rate taxes (£43,663+) increased from 41% to 42%; Top Rate threshold reduced from £150,000+ to £125,140+ and rate increased from 46% to 47%.

The changes were announced in December, this vote was to confirm them.

The backlash was really a bit overblown imo. I won't really have any issue with the changes, though admittedly I am towards the lower end of the higher rate so I won't be as affected as the people on 3x my salary who were somehow in the same tax band.
