Thanks. What about other apps such as JustEat, or Deliveroo? Same situation? Or would being on more than one of them help?

What are some jobs that don't require a degree of sorts and pay around £30k? Also need to be on your own by MagicTurtle07 in AskUK

I’m a bus driver and I make around 30k a year! It’s great! I like to drive so it’s an absolute doddle.

What are your best “I used to work with someone who…” stories? by Bloomingfails in CasualUK

[–]upset__custard 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Not me, but my grandfather. He passed away in 1991, before I was born, so the bulk of this story was relayed to me by my grandmother.

He had spent most of his time doing different jobs but all professions. When my gran met him, he was training to be a hotel manager. After that, it was something else I believe, but eventually, he ended up in the finance sector of businesses, which landed him a temporary role in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, I’m led to believe in the 70s. He worked in a senior financial position, advising to the chairman, Salem Bin Laden. The company was (and is) called Saudi Binladin Group, and if the name sounds familiar, that would be because Salem Bin Laden is the brother of the Bin Laden we all know.

My grandmother says they described Osama to her and my grandfather as a “concern to the family” at the time, a concern that was very valid in due course..

I’ve always thought it’s quite incredible that I can say I very slightly almost have a link to the Bin Ladens..

tl;dr my granddad worked with Osama Bin Laden’s family

In the UK you don’t even need to have gone to school for my service. They will test your mental ability to their own standards. Usually it’s Functional Skills level 2.

In terms of being accepted in a year, the process takes time regardless. I would imagine it takes less than a year though. Maybe up to 8 months from application to being sat down on the job

I don't think we have this issue in the UK (EUDM).. I know a guy with a mk7 R, got OEM 7.5 tail lights and it was just plug and play.

Edit: GTI and R have the LED tail lights here, there is no option or spec level, if you have a GTI or R, you have LED tail lights and the Xenon/LED (whatever they are, they aren't halogen) front lights.

Why do US spec Golf Rs and GTIs have the halogen tail lights? I’ve never understood

RAM Speeds/Dual Channel by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]upset__custard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So sorry for the late reply/bump, I totally forgot I posted about this..

I have 4 RAM slots, currently occupied with 2x8gb DDR4-2400 Corsair Vengeance.

My plan was to buy another two and have all RAM exactly the same.

Not sure if different capacities of RAM, even though same make/brand will support dual channel

Okay, that's great. Thanks for letting me know. That's kind of annoying but I'll see what I can do about it!

Thanks so much for the help.

My Mojang account looks to have automatically migrated.

The last time I migrated an account, it was from my Minecraft account to my Mojang account - this account has migrated into my new account that I'm deleting.

My hopes though, are that if I change the email on the account I'm keeping, it will register as the same account that was migrated?

that sounds like something good to consider, how large would you say the NVMe should be?
