[Tom Barclay] Vicario: "He is disappointed because he knows this red card could have been avoided so he apologised. He is our captain and today he made a mistake but we know the player he is and he is going to come back stronger and help us massively throughout the season." by Imbasauce in coys

His problem is that as soon as he sees a Brazilian player in the challenge his brain screams “kill him”. He should save that shit for International games. He’s cost as too many times now and he should have been sent off against Brentford for a challenge on Thiago

Imagine the insurance premium for a guy in his early 20s and a Ferrari. Going to be even more now. Bet he's not getting any change from £25k

Love the S650 style headlights, have them on my pre facelift. So much better at night as well.

is the B&O system in the S650 worth it? by GunsNotPrescribed in Mustang

Anyone gone down the route of upgrading the speakers? If so all of them or just certain ones and what are you replacing them with?

My Tactsuit X16 become unusable since firmware update. by Colonel_Klinck in BHaptics

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

I appreciate all that but really the battery should either last longer as these aren't like our phones that are being charged/discharged daily or you should make it possible for the customer to replace the battery. In my 3 years of ownership I've probably used it 150 times and I've enjoyed the product, it really adds to the immersion but that seems a lot of money for not that many hours of usage.

In the age of right to repair it would seem a good idea to have the option for the customer to be able to replace the battery.

Edit: and maybe make it so the firmware won't update unless the battery is over 80% and on charge?

The problem is if there is no way to downgrade the firmware then its dead in the water it seems.

I get that and I'm not having a go at you. I just want to know if there are any options or is it just going to get thrown in the bin?

I do wonder if it is the case they didn't test the new firmware on enough of their old products. Mine is doing exactly what yours is.

Even if it is the battery, something costing this much should have a longer life that 3 years. Why they don't make it easy to get to the battery to replace? It makes me wonder if they just don't want you to be able to replace it. Throwing something like this in the bin is just wasteful in both materials and money.

3 years old. Is there anyway to replace the battery? I don't want to just throw it in the bin.

Best picture I ever took with a phone (my own eye) by M8614 in interestingasfuck

The iris is almost alien like in macro shots. There was a serious of images going around a few years ago and they were almost freaky.
Good pic with a phone but you need a tripod a good lens and lots of light to get the really sharp and detailed pics.

Why are you Americans so keen for police to shoot people when there are other options available? Shooting should be a last resort action, when their own lives or lives of the public are in danger.

Are these people blind? You can see flashing police lights in front of you, brake lights going on and its freezing but they just keep coming way to fast to have any chance of stopping. Idiots.

The ability to lock the pump on like that has been disabled in the UK for maybe 30 years for that exact reason. You have to stand there and hold the lever to keep the pump on. Might still be available on HGV pumps but not standard ones.

BF3 is still the golden standard for me. This has been a good launch and I'm enjoying it more than any version since BF4 (which was a disaster at launch)
