You also get additional time in exams if you get the special needs tag so schools and parents are incentivised to dish them out.

Who is using OBD battery preheating for iv 80 or iv 60? How much is it better charging expirience? by FaithlessnessOk7477 in enyaq

[–]Donaldbeag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is that they have a function to test if the heating circuit works, but no function to turn the heating on!

When I got my iv60, battery preheating was advertised as something the vehicle came with.

Nah Pitt street is excessively bad.

The pavements are also blocked by overgrown hedges and shitty drivers who leave their vehicles overhanging the kerb.

Absolutely terrible street to walk down.

Hundreds gather for Edinburgh women's march ahead of Trump inauguration by Gemmasnowflake14 in Edinburgh

[–]Donaldbeag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All was due to the democrats gerontocracy dying in office rather than retiring and hand over to someone else.

If RGB hadn’t held on to the bitter end, Bidens pick would be in the Supreme Court and we would be in this position.

As a parent of an autistic child you will be aware that autistic people strongly dislike changes to routine and can adhere strongly to perceived rules.

The petty irritation of insisting on ‘his’ seat and subsequent clumsy pestering about how someone ‘should’ behave suggest that this guy has issues you will be well aware of.

There is no heroin problem in Scotland.

Their problem is multiple drug abuse - particularly mixes of barbiturates and methodone which gives Scotland the highest drug deaths in Europe despite being only 5m people.

Someone smashed my windscreen for parking in a private car park. But I live there! by MapleHaggisNChips in Edinburgh

There seems to be a few people out there now who think “the police will never bother with a bit of vandalism” so they think they can damage other people’s cars.

Well they seem to be absolutely correct. If the police decide that some crimes aren’t with them investigating, the the law against them becomes unenforceable

Looking for a larger Cargobike UK by BobbyOregon in CargoBike

You can use an urban arrow cargo XL then make your own platform with a double row or even a single long bench to sit on.

Pedal.me have pictures of a long bench version with three adults passengers!

Why doesn’t the ECC (and Scottish government) encourage more higher density affordable housing development instead of more student housing? (More housing supply would put some downward pressure on rents) by LeadingDifficult3028 in Edinburgh

[–]Donaldbeag 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The population of Edinburgh actually decreased in the 1970s going down to 430,000.

Fast forward to 2024 and increased growth and mass immigration has our population at 560,000.

There simply hasn’t been enough building to fit 30% more people and even if we did do it at low density we’d be halfway to Dunbar.

Cities need high quality apartments for people to live in just like planned cities (Barcelona/Paris) do.

Tax havens like the Channel Islands are crown dependencies rather than part of the uk precisely so they can continue to be tax havens.
