well the simple fact is government schemes or no, unless you own your own house and happen to have £10-15k lying around you ain't going to be getting solar panels fitted

meh i don't bother with excuses
if "no" doesn't immediatly end the conversation i hang up
Actually it wasn't an excuse as she was just about to put the leash on the dog when they called which was hillarious in it's timing. :P
Sadly, going ex-directory has not in any way stopped cold-calling, because any time you give out your phone number online, someone's going to sell it to these bastards.
I have been up since 4:30am so I need to think a bit. Your logic seems sound but I think you may be underestimating market liquidity a bit. The CDS spread should be arb'ed. I'm not sure that it matters if the spread between its actual risk and TBTF premium takes into account the beans-and-water investor (we already have those! It's called going long gold).
In other words, despite the name, I'm not convinced that buying a CDS on a bank is hedging the end of the world.
it's world of tanks in space basically
the controls feel pretty good
various game modes, from capturing control points with respawns, capturing control points with limited respawns, blowing up control points, deathmatch with unlimited respawns until the "Captain" is killed
all spaceships have a special ability. I'm going for the Federation now, which have the ships up there.
Three classes of ship - fighter, interceptor, frigate. The federation fighter has a cloak, their interceptor has a close range damaging thing, and the frigate has combat drones that protect you from missiles and pew pew on their own.
other abilities are TV missiles, sniping cannons, a sorta mini hyperdrive, etc.
also it is free
Ahh, I'll have to install it then as I'm on Windows 7 on my home pc. Thought it would have already been there but I'm reading up and I guess it wasn't included this time around.
boo
Intriguing. Sounds like it might satisfy some of the urges attention span prevents me from using EVE for.
Like if I hold it so the volume buttons are on top, will it be the right way up and landscape, or sideways and portrait?
I ponder about, often sorta defensively, never go on point. The drones have 1500 metre range so I close in to that, and just bshhhhhht them with the lasers.
on my fighter and interceptor both I've got plasma cannons now, which are the shorter ranged of the three weapons. (railguns being the third)
just get all up in their face either by being really fast or by having the ability to cloak
which is never not fun
I want him to tell me stories of Ed Greenwood
Weird issues after the first cutscene. First I was just hanging there, not actually controlling myself... and reloading just gave me a black screen. Woo.
No, not in the :winky: sense.
what is this?
Star Conflict! It's free and on steam now.
World of Tanks Spaceships, in essence.
Star Conflict? F2P MMO type thing.
edit: it takes place in "sector 1337"
I see what you did there
and I am not amused.
well, maybe a little.
try claiming your gold ETF when the "grass is growing in the streets" :rotate:
it's buying CDS on a TBTF bank, specfically.
Man some people love their calculations.
so TB is now saying. Interesting
lasers are the longest ranged ones, right?
Ahh...carry on then. :P
probably won't play it
but it seems worth looking into
Fair enough.
Look at it this way: if you're assuming that a given bear investment is priced such that it assumes "grass will be growing in the streets" they're all undervalued.
We're not talking about a market dip event, we're talking about a market end event. If that is the in-the-money state (market end) everything is undervalued. And it doesn't matter because in that event there is no market to collect on.
Phone posting is difficult btw
yeah.
