Olympic Mathlete posted:In the UK it's been shown that the general public believe that 'lazy shiftless sad sacks' are leaching ten hundred billion quid from the pot. Fact is the real number is absolutely gently caress all in the grand scheme of things. Ironically those that are loving the country over are the huge multi million pound + companies. Its alright for some you bastard . I have to do taxes and they loving suck working as a 1-man business since I have to follow the same rules and procedures as those huge companies. I have just had to do a VAT return. The 'simple' scheme I am on changed in April and I have now had to follow these incredibly badly written instructions to work out my new VAT rate. quote:These businesses will now be classed as “limited cost traders” if they spend: also quote:Goods do not include: surely all business goods are resold?

cakesmith handyman posted:That is dumb and I wonder how many people don't realise what they signed. My main insurance policy went up by £100 this year The agreed/declared value bit of many classic policies is also worth poo poo, and be careful what you are signing up for regarding any rights you have to get your vehicle back after a claim. Back when I was involved with the landrover club a guy locally got hit by a drunk driver and it hosed his truck up (if you drive head on into a forward control landrover the car will go underneath the chassis and rip your springs and axles off...) His 'classic' insurance company re-valued his vehicle much lower than it should have been and then didn't want to let him have/buy the salvage vehicle back to fix it.

Olympic Mathlete posted:Music chat: Anybody who is a metal fan should start listening to this album from the beginning https://youtu.be/UBakgOHKI-g Olympic Mathlete posted:Eastern European folk music, metal blast beats, opera singers, funk bass, breakcore and loving chiptune. It's crazy. And that's just that one song. ADHD in song form. My earlier genre classification of baroque-death metal-opera-breakcore summed the live experience up pretty well. He also has a massive Gigeresque tentacle mic and dresses a bit like a crazy caveman which makes it more fun.

InitialDave posted:I'm the chunky one with the bald spot immediately in front of the Landie's spare wheel. I really wanted to go but I've overdone it for the past couple of months and have just spent the last 4 days feeling like total poo poo and trying to stay warm and shake the man-flu I've been fighting for the last 2.5 weeks. I should probably have tried harder and got my poo poo together and come down. Being overworked and stressed and then feeling lovely on top has just destroyed my motivation I don't trust the 101 to drive me anywhere at the moment either.

slidebite posted:x3 By "tap poo poo" do you mean contactless? We have that on debit cards too back in the UK. Its great, but unfortunately most bars/pubs here have a minimum charge of £10 before you can use contactless so you are stuck with still using cash unless you have more than the 2 drinking friends I usually seem to end up out with, or are happy paying more for drinks than I am or don't like to go out... I've gone the opposite way to all of you and stopped using my credit card and now use debit only as they wouldn't let me set up a standing order to pay the whole CC balance off each month. I can only do a set amount or the minimum payment automatically, so as a consequence I kept getting charged interest if I forgot to pay it manually in time. The level of protection against fraudulent transactions seems just as high on debit as it is on credit, if not better as they seem more responsive. I've had my debit blocked quite a few times for 'suspicious' transactions and they have generally rung me within a couple of minutes to ask me about them.

Food chat: I tried to make my own bread rolls tonight. I didn't get something quite right as they ended up super dense and really doughy in the middle. Not sure what I did wrong. I want to make pizza dough. The bread rolls were supposed to be a test. I wonder if I'm doing this the wrong way round?

KozmoNaut posted:And this is why all of my passwords are unique and randomly generated. Goddamn. I've been trying to achieve this for ages but its just so hard! I'm using lastpass, and have been working hard to get my password security score up, but because I have the password saved for so many different corporate systems which are all directory integrated I think it constantly scores me down for having them all the same (even though they will all get changed every 3 months).

The amazon delivery software must be fairly poo poo. Yesterday I got 3 prime deliveries off the same guy approx 15 minutes apart. Why didn't it tell him to do them all at once?

CAT INTERCEPTOR posted:Neither this time. Broke up late last week and I think I seriously said something completely wrong and hurtful to someone else that I will deeply regret. Hasn't everybody done this at least once?. Just apologise and give it time and try to get on with everything else and try not to do the same thing again...
