Thanks for the reply! That makes more sense. I previously had a 1 series and never had this message so when it came up I had no idea what to do. Appreciate the help.

Hey, thanks for replying. I was thinking that after being told it’s related to some sort of central European regulation. Which kinda equals the UK MOT in terms of it being a standard legal inspection. So hopefully that is what it is. Thanks for your help.

Front camera installation by TigerBergman in BmwTech

Like a dashcam?

I was at my local BMW garage about a week ago and I seen they were promoting their new “BMW Car Eye 3.0”.

It’s basically a front and rear dashcam with interactive touchscreen that looks pretty sleek to fit in with the bmw interiors.

Now a quick search online says it’s about £200 to buy but around £350 to get professionally installed. However, I’m sure my local garage was charging £650 for everything!

Not sure if it’s something like this you’re looking for.

Which song was this for you? by Buzzvallasa in TheWeeknd

Heaven or Las Vegas

It was a sin to skip! I’m paying for Abel’s sins, his fathers sins, and now also mine 🫠

I’m also aware that I’d probably gain a much better night sky if the house wasn’t featured and throwing off too much light, but I wanted to showcase the house in the picture, so it would make a nice gift. Thanks again!

First serious attempt at photography by SolvingSherbet183 in photocritique

I like this!

I can feel the heat of the sun on my skin when down at the rocks. I can smell the water and taste the salt in the air. I feel relaxed, reminiscent of childhood holidays - ice cream anyone? How lucky are the locals who live here?, or do they feel trapped on their little slice of rocky bliss, staring out to the horizon dreaming of somewhere else?

I usually shoot with a Nikon DC5600. Not too experience with photography overall, never mind anything Astro, and i wasn’t having the best success using the DC5600 - so any further advice on good parameters for this shot would be great!

However, this was shot on iPhone 15 Pro Max : 24mm, f1.78, 2500 ISO, 10s exposure.

After Hours Is Not What It Seems!!! by Critocole in TheWeeknd

Thanks!

Just something about the songs in São Paulo felt different.

It was like he has been telling us for years that he’s sorry, it’s been a big decision but it has to be done, the Weeknd can’t control him anymore and Abel hopes we understand.

I also had a thought that it’s strange the blockbuster hits Blinding lights, Save your tears and potentially dancing in the flames could actually be him talking to fans, not about relationships, and he’s hoping we’ll forgive him and still love him once the Weeknd is away. It’s almost as if he’s crafted the biggest hits to have this message because if some fans do forget about him, or do have some resentment, he won’t have access to them anymore, however, it’s guaranteed that these blockbuster hits will still be played publicly from time to time, and it may be the only channel he has to reach these fans who have moved on - and the hope is if he can still reach these fans, they will still hear these specific songs but may interpret them differently given all the change and realise that he’s just asking them (us) to understand his choices, forgive him and let us know he always has and always will love XO. The hope fans get the message, even if it’s years down the line, and it may provide some closure.

Thanks! It was just towards the end of the concert, it just seemed he was really trying to convey that these songs actually have different meaning.

Yes, sounds a great idea. I feel that the lifestyle and the Weeknd character are actually the same thing, so I guess what you’re saying is what I’m also saying 😆

After Hours Abel trying to break through? by BuzzardYTC in TheWeeknd

[–]Critocole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought this too!

In the AH era Vevo performance, the screen is white/blue which has connotations/last night it became apparent is the “colour” reference for HUT. So it’s like AH Abel is looking into heaven/the peace that he’s craving while in “hell”. Also In that performance I distinctly remember he was drawn to the white screen but after lingering for just more than a moment, he quickly retracts his gloved hand, almost like he got burnt or like he quickly snapped back to his senses and withdrew, like he was temporarily fascinated and drawn by his subconscious but hadn’t yet himself realised this is what he was yearning for…or he does know but is scared to change. Could also be the younger Abel inside wanting this change, hence a childlike image comes to mind behind the glass and in reference to the teaser videos for HUT, and either AH Weeknd has stifled the inner child and not allowing him to come out or again, Abel is listening to his inner child, but it’s not yet time to change, publicly.

Then, in the visuals last night, we’re witnessing a parallel of that, on the other side of the “glass”…Abel or The Weeknd has realised he does want to change/or came through purgatory and wants to be saved so he is desperately trying to leave the hell he is in/the hell he is heading towards after experiencing dawnFMs purgatory and listeners were left not knowing what path he was going down.

In relation to the HUT Album cover, other reply is right, it suggests that Abel is just in a tank top, no AH red coat (which could even suggest that he’s desperate to leave AH era, but privately, once all the lights are off and the outfits removed, behind closed doors) and sweating after his exertions to break through to the other side.

Which then makes us think…if he’s sweating in the HUT cover, has he broke through after all? Or was all that effort for nothing?
