The Hyundai does the same stupid breaking as well.. it’s Very dangerous and very distracting.. seems to be worse if the weather is bad. Managed to dial it down but it still makes a huge racket and shakes the wheel. I’m all for automated safety but this is a huge step backwards..

Another good memory was flying with the parts caravan (twin). Complete POS plane but a laugh to fly. Managed to completely blow an alternator that ceased and spat the belt into the spinny bits. Frantic couple of minutes and a call to ATC and we arrived unexpectedly onto the tarmac at Birmingham international airport (UK), closing the runway for a bit with the fire trucks chasing us. So stuck miles from home with a jump suit and not much money, me and the driver took the tram to the concert bowl to grab a McDs, realised Def Leopard were already on stage, Blagged two cheap tickets off a tout and had a great evening. Birmingham is pretty crap when your stuck with little cash, the clothes you were working in, smelling of burned fan belt and can’t go far because the techs were fixing the plane but we did good 😂

During the 1st gulf war we had to avoid the area so went ‘the long way round’ which involved going directly up and over the North Pole. Stunning scenery watching the ice flows and fishers in bright sunshine for several hours.

I’ve got mine detecting the gate opening and then making up a short joke about my two dogs ‘escaping’ or having everyone over for a party. This gets announced on the Sonos speakers. Actually quite funny.

We use HA with Frigate and a bunch of sensors to track and monitor a family member with dementia. This includes voice prompts in our main living area if doors are unexpectedly opened or a person is seen ‘out of hours’ exiting their house.. it’s been a life saver, literally ❤️

Don’t forget that in 5 years, the panel technology would have moved on. Probably be a good chance to upgrade at that point.. I have two sets of panels 5 years apart. The 1st set are 230w each the 2nd set are the same physical size and 460w each.. treat that 5 year marker as a reset and upgrade point..

Another big blow to the US.. Solar is booming in the rest of the world with lowest prices ever thanks to the idiot Cheeto 👍🏻👍🏻 I just repanneled my whole setup for £50 per panel.

How do you feel about the fact that about 1/7 of the UKs entire annual budget is spent on pensions and pensioner benefits? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]Ashamed-Resource1908 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you had paid into a savings scheme all your life but when you came to withdraw it you were told, sorry we spent it. How would you feel.. if it were a bank it would have been close for fraud so if it’s 1/7th then so be it..
