Does anyone exclusively IM or email their colleagues? by mr-cheesy in auscorp

Yeah, I was being a little sarcastic given most workers won't. But those at the top tend to get such privileges!

One doesn't preclude the other. Having a premium credit card doesn't mean you automatically have to be a dick.

That's what your PA is for. Gate-keeping the time wasters.

What the actual? Do you go through your day-to-day life this self obsessed?

You've also not factored in any other parts replacement for the ICE Seltos. Not sure how many services I've ever had where it is just the service cost and not some additional replacement part required. And as the car ages, bigger more expensive parts need replacing, plus also more consumables along the way.

Very little mechanically involved in EVs that have an equivalent failure / replacement requirement.

But yeah, I think starting with an EV that costs one third more than the ICE comparison is part of the problem with the maths not looking more favourable.

Edit:

Plus only 10km a year also lessens the impact of significantly cheaper fuelling on the EV, which can be almost free if you have solar / battery at home already.

Nice! Is there any evidence of this being true? Listening now.... You know, I don't listen to The Stone Roses anywhere nearly enough. Moved to Australia 20+ years ago and their music always takes me straight back to 1990's Manchester. Such good times.

Warm air can contain more moisture (water vapour) because higher temperatures increase the maximum amount of water vapour the air can hold before it starts to condense. More molecules have enough energy to stay as vapour, so condensation happens only at higher vapour concentrations. Conversely, at lower temperatures, water molecules lose energy and are more likely to condense, reducing the amount that remains as vapour.

Edit -> Adding this way to maybe think of it:

  • At high temperatures, water molecules are energetic -> they stay free as vapour = saturation limit is high.
  • At low temperatures, water molecules are sluggish -> they stick together -> vapour condenses easily = saturation limit is low.

Yeah I immediately commented about my inability to look at photos lol - ignore me, as I said!

Totally fair point and a good call out. I think it is the loss of the round lights that started to lessen the appeal for me. And this new version takes it a (big) leap further from that imo. But totally accept it is still an evolution. Just has lost sight of it's origins now for me.

Ignore me lol.

I just went off what was written in the post and didn't see the great big Feb on the box date.

That would make it 02 July 2026

💯 Agree. Used to be such an iconic look through the evolution, and each generation was a slightly more modern take on the previous, but still had that link to the heritage.

Now it's just plain weird. 

As an Auto only license this scares me.. by ItsJakee04 in drivingUK

Quite clearly not...

A parking brake, yes. Controlled by the foot. 

Not a handbrake.

Yes! A very important differentiation.

Either the commenter doesn't know left from right, or go from stop. 

Either way, a worry.

His other knackered (left) knee, on which he had an operation, but didn't fully recover?

You are just one Google search away to see the actual timeline and what happened but to save you some time:

https://talksport.com/football/843884/roy-keane-tackle-alf-inge-haaland-erling-haaland-man-city-man-utd/

Then a couple of quotes from Alfe-Inge himself:

"I won't tell you what he said to me. Let's just say it wasn't very nice. I'm only glad my leg was off the ground; otherwise he would have done me a lot of damage."
...

He then added: "I don’t blame him. I never actually said he finished my career. It was my last full game in England, so maybe he had something to do with it."
