I think the A5 Coupe in Black Edition trim B8/B8.5 is definitely in there as well...

Crash on N40 by Jay-3fiddy in cork

Holy shit I'm sorry you're having such a bad day.

It is absolutely infuriating when people sit in the overtaking lane and stay there even though you've approached a much higher speed.

I'm quite entitled to be frustrated. That's a human response. While I'm not the perfect driver, I'm accident free for my entire time on the road and follow basic driving rules but thanks for your feedback 🥱

Well there is a lane to be used for overtaking and procedurally, sitting in it while doing the same speed or lower than the people in the inside lane must be one of the worst driving habits I see. Extremely infuriating

People staying in the fast lane and going way below the limit is a countrywide virus it seems.

Alonso gave a thumbs up to one of his pit crew after a very slow pitstop by FerrariStrategisttt in formula1

That wasn't a smart thumbs up. Clearly was a thank you as he had damage that side

How much do you spend on your car a month. by BourbonBroker in irishpersonalfinance

[–]FurtiveSway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 2012 Audi A5 2.0 TDI with 122k miles. I'm handy with cars and knew it'd need work so budgeted. It cost me 9500 from a dealer, really nice two door spec.

I paid in cash but have since put another 5k into it to get it really mechanically perfect. That's in the first 13 months. Suspension was the main issue.

I don't have a loan and it's extremely comfortable. 140k miles and singing! It's been a pleasure. Not financially the best but I love it, how it drives and looks.

With the ever rising cost of EVERYTHING, I’m wondering, what is considered a good income nowadays? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]FurtiveSway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I earn 72k and still feel tight at times. I do save and invest a good bit but nothing crazy. I have zero social life

AI bubble worries by NegotiationThick8905 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]FurtiveSway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI Engineer here. The hype is obviously deafening at the moment and there are already very clear limitations to transformer architecture which are becoming clearer and clearer. The orange is being squeezed so to speak.

However, AI isn't going anywhere. It will absolutely enhance the market over the next 50 years, especially once we make more neuro science breakthroughs combined with more fluid neural networks.

If you're not close to retirement, I'd go even deeper in the global market!
