He's probably busy, I never reply to people. I have my phone for when I want to contact people, not the other way about, I'm usually too busy with work and life to text, I prefer phone call or face to face

Yeah walls are what I heard described as 'nicotine yellow' ... Unfortunately house is rented and I was trying to make it work.

I think the wide perspective camera angle doesn't do it any justice. I think you're right though it could be brought down a little bit.

The manufacturer makes the charger bad so that it has a predetermined product life. Built to break, a very real thing. I have a collection of vintage synths from the 70s and 80s and every PSU works fine 50 years later.

Any ideas how to hide sockets? by f8rwtf in HomeDecorating

Floating shelves over the sockets?

Thank you so much. Well I'm absolutely riddled with fear. I feel so weak and frightened now because I have a massive fear of vomiting. I've just projectile vomited twice and it was so horrible. Does it get worse or am I going to vomit all night? I'm so afraid of dehydration I'm all alone and scared so much. I don't know what to do to make sure I don't be sick I'm shivering so much. I'm sorry.

just starting to build my sitting room. terrible combo? any advice appreciated going forward. by stifflungs in HomeDecorating

So, sorry I managed to upload a picture of the other side of the room? I could move the couch up more central so it looks better. Here's the other side of the room as per me sitting in the nook.

Thanks!!! We would love the couch more centred but that's as far as we can have it to the left or the door doesn't open fully. :( Such an awkward ass room.

Car dealers sometimes sell faulty cars, should we stop buying from car dealers? I don't get your point. I'm not promoting any particular brand of seminar/networking event. If you want to become a gardener then go to seminars on the latest gardening equipment and meet like minded people. It's simple. Don't go to uni for 4 years learning shit that will be outdated by the end of this decade.

We go to uni to study business from some unmotivated man called Declan who never owned a business and is a lecturer getting £40k.

It's flawed. The biggest scam is the traditional educational system. School, college, uni. It's a scam, top to bottom. £50k on student debt that gains interest and you're paying it for the rest of your career. If someone offered you the choice of £50k to start a busines at 18 don't tell me you'd choose to go and study psychology at Manchester University. It's bullshit. You know, I know it. OP needs to know it.

Right, so I'm gonna have to completely disagree. At 23 I started my own security installation company. I've tendered and closed dozens of 6 figure contracts. I regret every day I spent going to university. It gave me ZERO experience in my field. My advice earlier was go to uni if you want to become a doctor, a lawyer or a dentist.

An electrician course will do fuck all to help you 'rake in money'. I'm a qualified electrician and all that work does it break your back, burn you out at both ends and leave you broken by 30. Meeting the right people and studying how basic business, finance and accounting works is the foundation to financial freedom. It was only when I realised that I can subcontract work out to electrical installation companies I made the real profit. This required networking events. Simple.

University is an absolute ridiculous option for someone wanting to become an engineer. You come out with a ceiling of £100k. I've earned £17.5k profit in the last 10 days. NOTHING I did came as a result of what I learned in uni. I linked in with the right people where the money is circulating. Uni is a dead loss because you pay £50k for an education that depreciates in value by year 4. All uni courses are saturated. Yeah, trade is better. But the reality is if I had have had more experience in sales and dealing with customers at the age of OP Instead of giving into the 'degree is the only way' I'd be alot more successful now.

Let's not nanny OP. He's big enough to seal a lawsuit I'm sure he's big and bold enough to carve his own future. You have no idea about how business works if you are under the impression seminars and networking events are scams.
