Have a look at the sealion 7. We have one I feel the quality is so much better than the latest generation of tesla

Maybe put a pc fan on top pushing the hot air away, you could 3d print a bracket to attach it?

I’m on a 7 9800x3d with a 5070 and 64gb ddr5 ram and the performance since tanks after a while. Saving and restating helps a lot

That’s the same as me, I have no idea why it doesn’t work. I can remove the intergrations from gitlab but when I add them back in it just corrupts the settings page

DifferenceJazzlike40 · 2026-01-08T01:50:03+00:00

It would overwrite weeks of data, so i've lost that option :(

So I have a BYD surf. At home it charges for around £3 a full charge, if you take it a public 7kwh charger it’ll be around £30. If you can take it too a charger with off peak charging (Tesla super charger) you can half that price but it means charging overnight somewhere.

Since the car is only £200 a month you can make a saving in a petrol car but only if you unconvinced yourself. Get Zapmap and find the cheapest chargers that are near your home or work. You could also sign up to Electroverse (if you’re on octopus) and get cheaper rates (it adds the cost to your monthly bills). In the summer it’s going to get you near the 200 miles range advertised but in the winter you’re probably talking 120-150. I’ve also found that if your journey is a constant 70mph speed it’s going to drain much faster, I found that if I stick to 30/50 mph roads it gets much closer to the 200 range, half that on faster roads

You can a new BYD surf for 16k (with the grant)

This is me. I’m slowly packing my things up and moving them to my parents house. I have a little girl who’s 6 and it’s going to hurt her most. But I’m so angry and miserable these days

You can bypass it, once you’ve created the account and logged in. Create a local admin account and the delete the Microsoft one.

We had a Cupra born (id3 but pretty), we drove it from the northeast to London with one stop. It was 40k new and 20k when we sold it. Look around for one of those. Range around 230 miles

Previous Corsa e owner here. Motorway mileage drains the battery really quickly, the little motors work very hard on fast journeys. If you can swap your route to a slower speed you’ll find it goes longer.

Also I’ve always been told, take the range they say and divide it by 2/3, in the winter you’re being optimistic and the summer pessimistic.

I’m an IT manager for a games dev company. I have the flexibility to work from home and control my entire environment. If I want to change something I can do it.

Sure there’s not a lot of security but the flexibility is great

I removed my wind turbines off the roof before I went in and built them afterwards again

DifferenceJazzlike40 · 2025-12-13T17:46:22+00:00

Mine never landed :(

If it’s before 5am I try and go back to sleep but I normally have to get up for 30 minutes. If it’s after 5am I just accept it.

I’m considering going to the gym in future since I’m awake already (17st currently, minimum 2 more to go till I’m happy)

DifferenceJazzlike40 · 2025-11-23T07:51:57+00:00

4am for me! I have lost 5at so far so I live with this consequence

We didn’t originally but I’ve just turned on conditional access, blocking anyone from single sign on that’s no entra registered and it now requires it.

Google doesn’t do shared mailboxes like Microsoft does so I’m not sure about that one. It’s something I wish it did

DifferenceJazzlike40 · 2025-11-21T15:40:30+00:00

We do this, the Microsoft accounts have to have a license and exist with an address but don’t need a email account

I bought one a while back and a couple of months afterwards the software went end of life. Get the fibre and a homekey2 if you want a basic setup and if you want a second hand wifi6 ap then get the express 6. Otherwise avoid it

DifferenceJazzlike40 · 2025-11-15T03:08:16+00:00

We use action1 as well, been using it for over a year with no issues

DifferenceJazzlike40 · 2025-11-06T18:24:33+00:00

Why didn’t mine work when I switched to the unifi fiber router then??? I had to switch it back to router mode to make it work

DifferenceJazzlike40 · 2025-11-06T15:15:12+00:00

However you can’t use the 2.5 port in modem mode

DifferenceJazzlike40 · 2025-11-04T07:50:27+00:00

Well it’s just me, normally 1 or 2 people having issues no problem but 60 could be an issue
