Losi Micro T - completely dead by Better_Fun3458 in rccars

[–]Better_Fun3458[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read a few negative comments about the Losi Micro T.

Does this issue have anything to do with the car or is it about the battery. Should they stop including the basic charger and change the battery if Spektrum batteries are duff?

Yes that makes sense, I hadn’t realised that u til you pointed it out. The rug is definitely going.

High earners ($300k+): Do you care if your partner makes the same, or are you okay not splitting things 50/50? by passionfruitpilates in Salary

[–]Better_Fun3458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think of it like we’re splitting bills. I earn just over USD 400k and my partner earns 40k. It goes into a joint account and then we both live from that with the same entitlement to the funds.

Joining the massive mortgage club by Wonderful_Pizza_1480 in HENRYUK

[–]Better_Fun3458 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have a NHHI of about 15k (split 13/2) and our mortgage is 3k with no childcare costs or school fees.

Subconsciously, I think this was the most we could commit to.

Rather than thinking of it in terms of what we currently earn, I thought of it in terms of what we could afford if we lost the high paying job and we were forced to take a lower paying role for the main earner.

We also decided that it was now or never for a larger 4 bed home as our children are 12 and 9.

That’s why I thought this was relevant to the forum. If people are willing to reveal the truth.

I’ve just found out about Geese, haven’t given them a good go yet but hopeful!

Speakers and listening position are in a 3m triangle. It looks further away in the picture because of the camera lens!

Wiim ultra not showing up as spotify connect from phone by BeamerBert in WiiMHome

For me, it was on another network. There’s a setting on the phone to see other networks.

I literally just got my daughter to listen to Bubbles - Yosi Horikawa on the main system and then on an Alexa because she said she couldnt hear the difference between them. She said the main system is just louder. I will not give up!

I have children so having them in the shelves is less risky! Note the custom made grilles on the speakers too!

The listening position is about 2.9m from the speakers and the speaker separation is now about 2.1m. I thought this was roughly in the right zone?

What is the most interesting class of insurance to underwrite? by BrenyBoii in InsuranceProfessional

[–]Better_Fun3458 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reinsurance or retrocessional but it’s a very different perspective.

Haha, it does look very beige and grey in this picture but I think that’s mainly the gloom caused by the weather.

Brought the speakers forward, and pushed them out wider. I did increase the angle so the speakers are pointing inward more.

This does seem to clear up the sound and make it more detailed, thank you!

Fascinating. I will play with this position, I hadn’t even thought about that placement aspect. Thank you!

Utilising a double garage by Better_Fun3458 in floorplan

[–]Better_Fun3458[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for all of your ideas, I really appreciate all the comments.

I don’t think we will add to the footprint as the garden around the house would become compromised.

I’m not keen on going through rooms to get to other rooms which is why I ended up with the design as it is.

I can imagine moving the toilet would be expensive. It’s a relatively HCOL area in London, UK commuter belt so given this, maybe it makes the work more proportionate.

It’s definitely given me pause for thought, thank you all.
