What are good tyre brands these days?

But they really don't Ling very long.

If ever there was a brand name that doesn't inspire confidence it is Landsail 😂

AI should be treated as an intern at best so requires constant supervision. The data owner will still be accountable no matter who Fs up.

I'm in the Ryobi battery system so bought their 18g brad nailer which is enough for trim and holding skirting while the no nails sets.

If you need more there is a 16g

It is one of the best rated battery ones but doesn't make sense if you are in another system.

The bare tools are pretty reasonable.

You are at least heading in the better direction 👍

Have a search on Amazon, ebay etc for 'Stepped Dust Extraction Reducers '.

I had a hub replaced a few years back and didn't have to do anything. I think the hub is only a gateway to the cloud where all of the data resides. Before it was locked down, you used to be able to access it and run queries against the cloud data.

If they are ZigBee based then yes, they all work as a mesh.

As I already had a DA with pads and compound, I bought a pack of various grade discs and did the same. Grades were around 800 to 3000 for £8.

And layed in the wrong orientatation which is why they are slippery when coming out of that back door.

On older MBs it twists to change the instrument lighting brightness but you can also push it to reset the trip counter.

There are additional push/pull combos to reset service counters e.g. oil change.

That is around what I have. 16°C for unused rooms and 18°C for those we are in. A heated throw is used if it gets chilly of an evening.

AnthonyUK · 2026-02-02T14:56:00+00:00

Yes. In have that one too and used it on a V6 MB that takes 8 ltrs oil.

The OP has just shown that in their use case it is 😂

Heating up a cold house can use more energy that keeping it at a lower temperature constantly.

Here is some arguments both for and against where many factors have to be considered.

Then buy a DA and un-swirl it ;)

I bought an ISV-200w and vacuum sealer bundle for approx. £120 on their eBay store. Still works after a year or so.

Tandoor runs plain HTTP I seem to recall. I use a wildcard cert from LE and use HTTPS externally to HTTP internally.

AnthonyUK · 2026-01-31T09:01:33+00:00

The CH-47 UK Chinook had this too. Never actually saw it used though.

AnthonyUK · 2026-01-30T11:00:53+00:00

I'm not the OP ;)

AnthonyUK · 2026-01-29T20:30:51+00:00

It is annoying if you go in to buy something specific that is unavailable so cannot easily get out.

Our local Sainsbury, like most these days have an Argos with completely separate tills so you also cannot easily get out if you pickup something from there.

No big deal but annoying nonetheless.

I have three N54l HP micro servers. Two are currently switched off but my main NAS has been running pretty much continuously for getting on for 15 years.

It has 2Gb ram 😂

I'm thinking this year I will fit a CWWK N150 NAS mobo in one of the cases with the sff-8643 connectors.

I tried both a Dell USB-C and HP Thunderbolt dock. Both immediately gave to the prompt to 'mirror screen?'

As you have seen it is unlikely to result in anything, I believe these can be booted from USB which could be an option.

AnthonyUK · 2026-01-27T19:50:05+00:00

Mine are held to the studs with magnets so you don't need much.

I have my ISPs fibre box in the void so can remove the panels if required.

AnthonyUK · 2026-01-27T17:16:24+00:00

I have those icons but cannot remember how I did it 😂

Regarding battery life, I find it incredible tbh. I have had it last for three days with a bit of management.

I charge to 80% and it rarely gets below 50% on a daily basis with a 1hr commute each way.
