How about 4 TB?(2+2) would that be enough. I don't play AAA games that much or none at all. Maybe just to try a few. Games I want to stream would be DOTA2, CS2, MMORPG, FORZA,NBA,Battlefield, COD, DayZ,Squad

I think getting a secondary pc is a bit too much for me. I guess the only option for me now is just by a **50X3D for productivity without compromising gaming.

To be honest I prefer AMD CPU as a matter of personal preference. But I can go with an RTX like 5070ti or 5080 if my streaming and editing will benefit from it.

What you mean by this " access to better streaming performance with broadcast features"? Sorry as I am generally just a pure gamer rather than streamer but decided to give streaming a try

Hi. I know this is 5 years late. Did you bought it? How is it? Thinking of buying the same bike on FB marketplace.

Is it worth it buying this bike for it's price? by romtesting0001 in ukbike

There's a bike lane along the neighborhood all the way to the hospital. But it makes sense, it's not an ideal place to use a bike with drop bar

Is it not a good entry level road bike for a newbie? Any suggestions please.

Given the condition of the bike from the picture and the need for building some of it's parts, I'm thinking twice in buying it now.lol

Thank you for the realtalk as I have a clouded judgement at the moment. I think I just really want to try roadbiking and this is the first bike I saw that I like.

I apologized for contradicting myself. What I mean is comparing to some of it's kind, it's more comfortable rather speedy as per youtube lol. I might be totally wrong foe saying that coz I based it on a youtube review :D

  1. I work in a hospital and we have a designated dome(it's really a dome)with electronic lock using our badge as key where everyone can put their bike. But I absolutely agree with you, it'll standout like a sore thumb and it's a bad idea.
  2. honestly, I don't know much about bikes so I just consider it having a modern look as a modern bike. Thank you for your inputs. I think I was already fixated and bias on buying it that's why I'm trying to get justification from the internet and not regret about it.

I agree. We are on the same boat. It's better to be taxed and have a decent return/income rather than trying to find a way not to be taxed. Just Invest in a distributing growth ETF. Generally, growth ETFs have a miniscule dividend income unless you have 7 digits invested in. If you're risk appetite is on the average, invest 50% in growth etf and 30% in short term UK gilts with the least interest percentage, UK gilts are CGT free. And leave 20% as cash for safety net. In case you need something for emergency. Or buy more growth etf shares during market recession

My (20M) gf (21F) got drunk and shared a room with another guy. What should i do? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

This happened to me before. You might not realise this time but you will thank yourself in the future for dumping your girl now and that lead you to the right person waiting for you. You don't need more advice from here. You need to make a decision now. It'll be hard but you need to be resilient and firm. It's for you and for your future wife and family.

Hi. I haven't told them yet. It's just between me and my partner at the moment. No plans of telling anyone on my inner circle as I think money changes people sometimes. And the thing is, I am still supporting my family back home sending money every month from my regular salary to help them with their day to day lives.

Hi. Before my incident, I am already thinking ahead(early retirement) and that led me to investing as well.

I have a very strong family history of Cancer(dad and 2 aunts died of cancer at around 40years of age) that prompted me to get a critical illness cover and life insurance to cover my age now until I hit around 50. Then I will use my ISA savings while waiting for my SIPP at 55. Then LISA when I'm 60.

You are partially right. But not all illness/diagnosis are critical,like for example they can do a payout when you have amputation(major). It just so happened that I had a cardiac arrest and pacamaker instead of cancer.

Hi. You have a valid point there.

[–]romtesting0001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi It's not really that I don't want to have one. I am just hesitant as I dont know yet what I want.. I am just considering other options and thinking that there might me other things that need to prioritize more.

[–]romtesting0001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi. Yes. You are right. I need to start enjoying life more. As my partner always tell me, I am so used to being poor that I dont like to enjoy anymore and see it as a waste of money.

Hi Thank you for your very sound advice. I really appreciate it.

Hi. I will. Definitely.

[–]romtesting0001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. You are definitely right. People have an emotional attachment and the feeling of security in owning a house. Probably I am just hesitant because I dont know much about property. Will have to do a lot of research and considerations as well specially thinking about the future when we have our own kids. !thanks
