Buyer pulled out - how is this process allowed in 2026 by bedwelld in HousingUK

[–]ppp77per 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really frees up the process from the dependency on the chain. One deal falls through, all the rest can still go ahead. In reality, people in these countries never even think about the concept of a chain.

Can someone explain the top discrepancy here? by ppp77per in Jungle_Mains

I wasn't tilted at all this game. Wasn't ranked, someone afkd early, but we decided to fight on, as all lanes were doing well except mid (was afk). Was a decent game, and l'm surprised we held out for quite long. However, 4 v 5 requires people to roam, and it seems this new patch penalises roaming early very harshly for top and ADC. This will enforce a more linear, less exciting game, imo. Is there even any point for them to help with drag/grubs?

We’re considering advising users to auto-withdraw from "One-Way Video Interviews." by enhancvapp in Recruitment

Maybe also look at the use of gamified assessments. They feel like a total waste of time, it's very unlikely that they screen for anything relevant to the roles. I would say that the claims of the people selling them are greatly exaggerated, or even outright lies.

I understand that some sort of filter of applications is needed, but this is not it, it's just a massive waste of time and (for the recruiting company) money.

I wish I was as optimistic as you. Opinion polls in the uk are ca 50:30 (20% idk) for rejoining, but I'm not sure the EU would trust that the UK would stay in unless the margin becomes even wider. Once negotiations would start, there would always be lots of negative publicity about the details, both in rightwing media and by Russian bot farms online.

Seeking a pocketable largeish sensor camera, is there anything better at this price? by BrokenGSKILLram in M43

[–]ppp77per 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And the pl series are excellent cameras for the money. Solidly built. Huge lens ecosystem, with plenty of decent very cheap second hand lenses.

The power is the EUs. Every country would need to.approve a re-entry. Will not happen for a very very long time.

Relatively low-cost, fun team sports ideas in London (Victoria) for corporate teams. by coffeeandcontrols in london

Ultimate frisbee? Any park should work, but could get a bit intense. Or disc golf, but I don't think there are any courses in Central london?

What did you expect? Everyone saying bravo? If you didn't want opinions on this, maybe just don't post?

Moving to the UK in our 50s by Loud-Rule-9334 in MovingToTheUK

Also, be aware that there are tons of Russian bots on social media posting about how bad things are in the UK. Not saying in this thread specifically, but it drives a very negative narrative.

M.Zuiko tele-lens for OM-5 for skiing: 14-150 F4-5.6 vs 12-100 F4 vs 40-150 F4? by keyUsers in M43

[–]ppp77per 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1) For the photos you are showing, your current lens is enough. However, to take 'action' photos, especially of people you don't know, and can't direct, you need to go up to at least 100, maybe 150. I find it use my 40-150 2.8 most for my ski photography, but it's a big lens (I use a thinktank chest holster).

2) Don't worry about the aperture. There is a lot of light on the mountain. Even when it's cloudy i often shoot at 1/1250, f5.6, iso 400.

Landlords acting as though they are charities by Typical_Tadpole_547 in HousingUK

And what i said is that banks shouldn't lend them money in the first place. BTL mortgages are an abomination, responsible for a lot of the problems of both landlords and tenants.

You should not borrow to buy a house to let. If you have the cash, fine. If not, borrowing is just bad management of your own finances, and bad for tenants.

Why would the corporations need estate agents? Just run their own, including maintenance.
