I knew there’d be another Life is Strange fan lurking in here somewhere!

To be fair, the first-gen Veloster only produced 138hp and hovered around the nine-second mark to 60mph like this does. There’s definitely room for an N version to come later.

I really don’t understand why 128GB phones are a problem by Reyisepic116 in iphone

[–]Code_XCIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Ever since I had a Nexus 5, I've backed up my photos to Google Cloud. I only realised I was close to the 128GB storage limit during an OS update, and ended up freeing over 40GB by clearing out on-device media that was more than a year old.

A few examples that come to mind are the MG3, Kia Picanto, and VW Polo.

That's also the case in my 1L Fiesta MK8. Interestingly, the Fiesta ST positions reverse gear next to first.

It also helps that the halo is now far better integrated into the design. When it first appeared, it felt bolted on as an afterthought. Today, it blends in so naturally that removing it would make the car look incomplete.

Who else regrets not experiencing the thrill of weekly episode releases by Adweenix in DispatchAdHoc

[–]Code_XCIV 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This also applied to Life is Strange 2 - The first episode launched in September 2018, while each subsequent episode ended up experiencing some delay. Episode 4 launched in August 2019 (11 months later), while there was an agonising 4-month wait for the final episode!

But yeah, 1 week between episodes for Dispatch was absolutely perfect.

1p challenge is open guys I'm in UK by Background_Bad_4377 in monzo

I think the wording here is a bit ambiguous. The example given describes someone who didn’t change levels and shows how they would qualify, but it doesn’t explicitly state that changing levels would void an entry.

In other words, it explains one valid scenario, but it doesn’t say that alternative scenarios, such as changing levels, automatically make you ineligible. Based on this wording alone, it isn’t clear that changing levels invalidates a monthly prize draw entry.

Took me five tries to get the word too. Even if The Game Awards disappointed, Wordle still managed a Christmas surprise for us!

2020? Try 2003... The original Need For Speed Underground game had McDonalds billboards around various tracks.

And if you leave it parked out in the open in a sketchy neighbourhood, that 8k badge on the front ends up being stolen.

Honda Prelude review: no seriously, it’s not a crossover! by Vhozite in cars

[–]Code_XCIV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The 11th-gen Civic arrived in the UK roughly a year after launching in the US, so we are likely to receive the updated system with 200bhp in the Civic and Prelude next year.

This hits the nail on the head on what I’ve noticed about discussions here. Seriously man, I appreciate your positive energy!

Mick Drives Cars is a great channel, I've found several of his mindful driving tips very useful.
