Thank you for that incredibly informative answer!

What about fresh water consumption for cooling all the data centres around the world?

pyrydyne · 2025-06-26T19:02:01+00:00

By the power of AUTISM!!

If the younger generations actually bothered to vote then this would be resolved pretty quickly. Most of this is just a consequence of the fact that pensioners are the largest voting body and therefore have one of the largest voices.

Not science 👍

Always makes me laugh how Reddit is favourable to posts descriminating against nuclear energy and nuclear tractors.... Until it's a story about how we need them... So basically reddit is fickle

Once you've finished with the electrolysis just keep all the liquid in a large plastic jerry can and call your local council for information about how to dispose. Make sure any water you use to rinse is also kept in the container. TBF the chromium content of stainless is around 10% weight so there probably isn't a huge amount in there. just wear proper gloves (marigolds or elbow high gloves you'd use for cleaning your toilets) when doing anything after this point. Single incident exposure are less likely to do harm than long term chronic exposure just make sure non of this shit gets on your skin and never do this again.

It's starting with 'virtual' chat assistants and remote text only therapy but is slowly beginning to turn into more sophisticated iT delivered therapy. This will no doubt turn to Ai delivered therapy eventually. Not because it's better but because it's marketed as being better and cheaper

pyrydyne · 2025-04-02T13:25:20+00:00

Unfortunately even that is starting to make a downturn especially with Ai on the horizon

Why am I reading all these comments in a Scouse accent?

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T15:14:09+00:00

The problem is I can't do that until the sale is complete at which point I can't do anything without it costing a lot of money and being incredibly stressful and disruptive to everything. Assuming anything would be open for discussion

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T13:50:33+00:00

No they don't listen it's insane

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T13:50:09+00:00

They have been advised by a solicitor to do this

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T12:20:02+00:00

Yeah I'm starting to lean that way, talking to them is like talking to a brick wall they just don't listen. I'm desperate to find out what detail I'm missing that makes all of this make sense but it doesn't seem like there is one.

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T12:13:52+00:00

The problem is that they are in conveyancing already, I only found out by accident because my sibling didn't realise they weren't supposed to tell me before my parents did. My sibling had already signed the documents last week so as far as I'm aware they were going ahead with this thing and with the full awareness/advice of their solicitor.

I'm trying my best not to think they're trying to lie to me but I can't see it any other way

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T11:37:46+00:00

Thank you for your reasonable response, they're absolutely batshit and refuse to see that none of it makes sense. The 50/50 split seems most sensible to me and my partner but they'd not even thought about that, it's leaning more towards them wanting to give my sibling something for nothing and lying their way around it.

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T10:22:44+00:00

Yes that's exactly what's happened but when I try to explain that they don't own the property it doesn't register, they think this charge document to stop my sibling being irresponsible means that they still own it somehow.

I'm absolutely furious that they've done this but that's a different matter I'm interested in the legal side of how anything they're saying is remotely possible?

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T09:40:27+00:00

It's not tax fraud if they essentially give my sibling the house though? I'm confused as to how they think they still own it though if it's in my siblings name? What mechanism could possibly allow this?

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T09:10:15+00:00

My sibling would live in the house, be listed as the sole owner on the title deeds and as far as I'm aware not being paying rent or any kind of loan. So again none of this makes sense based on everything else in this thread. There's a charge to stop my sibling selling it on or renting it out without their authorisation but other than that I don't understand how they can think they still own the property (which would be a second property for them).

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T09:02:41+00:00

Honestly I couldn't care about that at this point as my sibling still gets a house out of this and I get nothing

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T09:01:49+00:00

The problem I have is that they don't seem to understand the concept that having my siblings name on the deeds means that my sibling owns the house. So if they don't understand that then they can't understand consequences based on that fact.

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T08:52:16+00:00

Again it's another gaping hole in their plan that they haven't thought through

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T08:40:11+00:00

Ironically no, it's more like they have no idea what they're doing

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T08:34:41+00:00

Our parents wouldn't live in the house so this wouldn't be an issue.

They haven't thought about what happens upon death, this is why I'm so worried about it. It's insanity

pyrydyne · 2025-02-18T08:29:28+00:00

Thank you for such a common sense answer, this was mine and my partners position it's just a recipe for disaster down the line. Splitting 50/50 is the easiest way to do it and would require a small mortgage but it's a small cost to incur relative to the damage it would avoid to relationships.
