Fuck off Sam

You ok buddy?

Joaquin Phoenix in Gladiator (2000). I still hate him a tiny bit to this day as he was so god damn good in that role!

Leaded solder is sooo much easier to work with. Wash your hands well after each soldering session, have a fan gently blowing over your work bench & a window cracked open & you should be (relatively) fine**. Unless you’re doing it very regularly for long periods in which case a proper extractor is worth the investment. Occasional hobby tinkering for 15-30 mins at a time over an iron is unlikely to be bad for you if you follow basic steps. **Not medical advice!

P.S. Awesome work. I can remember the first time I modded Wii 1st gen, as my first non practice soldering, I was so nervous. But the mod still works to this day, many many years later. More people should learn to solider, it’s not overly hard if you have a decent enough soldering iron, a steady enough hand, & are willing to practice. It’s so satisfying when it works!!

Unwatched on iPhone is pretty good, give it a look if you want a native app that isn’t the official one. Although I also vouch for Wipr2 as well. Stumbled on both as recommendations on here over the past 6 or so months.

Well done Spain, wear it as a badge of honour! 🇪🇸❤️

That’s such a shame to hear, thanks so much for the detailed response though. I really want to make the jump to full EV but keep getting put off by stories like this, was hoping things had improved by now!

A neighbour down the road has 2 Polestars, & I’ve seen the large on-site repair truck out a few times in a few months, plus a flat bad carrying one or the other a way at least twice now. Have been meaning to go chat to them, but worried I’ll just hear a list of complaints…

Real sad to hear about the Honda, was hoping the traditional manufacturers might have started to catch up, but it sounds like they may have a way to go if others have gone a similar route.

Cheers again for the reply, very insightful!

Slightly off topic. How’d you rate each of the 3 cars you mention owning. Very interested how the Polestar & Honda compare for day to day use, comfort, reliability, customer support etc.

27% so far…

Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead.

Good effort! Hopefully some of the local kids got to enjoy the swings after your heroics each day, & that the council/city eventually put them back after restrictions loosened again.

Kick him out!
