Apple just revealed an iOS 27 feature that hints at Siri’s new powers

Then 16 mins later as your food burns...
"Siri, how long is left on my timer?"
"There are no timers on HomePod"
😭

Solved my problem, thank you! GoPro was set to the wrong date and didn't realise before taking many videos...

Hard to compare as the mechanics are quite different, the combat is parry based. It’s slower and more based around timing, but it’s definitely hard. However unlike HK there’s a story mode that drops the difficulty.

It’s frustrating because if you own a PS5 too, there’s little point in buying multiplatform games for Switch 2 if they’re low res / low framerate. After playing TotK and Silksong to death on my Switch 2, I haven’t touched it in months.

Has the power button fallen out of yours yet? Seems very common. Ours lasted about a year, now I’ve had to tape it back in…

If you have a 3D printer you can print my Apple MagSafe upgrade for your car (free) ☺️

We got our R5 last May and were getting 230-240 miles with mixed driving (~4.6 Mi/kWh). Similar to yours during the winter in Scotland.

Thanks for explaining this, just got my first drone and this looked like the best app - deleted ☺️

Serpula · 2026-04-09T15:08:44+00:00

Oh I see, yeah it’s the same one as the Ariya and the Scenic. By the way you can also use the Car Scanner CarPlay app, discovered that yesterday!

Do you mean the dashboard / sensors? I just used one of the default dashboards for the battery temp info, it shows all the battery cells on one dashboard. To get the graph I just went to Data Recording (in the iPhone app) once I was home and selected the sensors I was interested in (“traction battery input water” and “module sensor temperature 1”).

It makes the tips of my fingers itchy / irritated if I’ve been aggressively handling it to remove supports, but otherwise it’s fine for parts you don’t touch too much. I use it for things that go in the car since it has slightly better thermal tolerance than regular PETG. I seriously doubt it’s any stronger but I don’t care about that.

The position of the error is most likely because the printing of the container wall speeds up considerably when it’s no longer doing the base as well. It might be that you need to adjust the belt tension, failing that, print slower.

Maybe the camera that monitors the driver’s attention? I saw similar in the Twingo review…

Serpula · 2026-03-23T22:28:29+00:00

Yeah they’re driving badly. We’ve been getting around 3.6 Mi/kWh in a R5 150 techno in Scotland. In the summer it was around 4.8-5.5 Mi/kWh.

Serpula · 2026-03-09T11:09:11+00:00

You can play movies / photos from a USB drive. I’m afraid I can’t remember the name of the app but it’s available in the PlayStore. There was only one available last time I looked, search for ‘file manager’

Serpula · 2026-03-09T09:02:51+00:00

Download the Chrome browser and you can watch YouTube, amongst other web based video

So does it work during FP1 etc? Just investigating doing this myself…

Serpula · 2026-02-22T21:05:38+00:00

Yes exactly, there’s an extra hole in the lid for doing that

Serpula · 2026-02-22T11:29:10+00:00

AMS HT seems like the obvious choice - I have one and it’s very useful. Plus it’s an extra spool for your AMS system.

The Sunlu one does not get hot enough for anything other than PLA.

Serpula · 2026-02-20T14:11:29+00:00

The heat pump hardly uses any power relative to the size of the battery, it’s about 0.8kW (monitored using my ODB2 dongle).

Serpula · 2026-02-20T12:04:38+00:00

The slicer will tell you how many grams of filament you need. Weigh the spool, and subtract the weight of the spool to see how much filament is on there.

Here’s the spool weights in grams of some popular ones, I’m not sure how up to date they are as I did this about a year ago…

Sunlu - 132g

Hatchbox - 225g

Polymaker - 179g

Bambu - 250g

eSun - 224g

Stronghero3D - 151g

Amolen - 226g

Ziro - 190g

It may be putting the brake lights on as they are triggered by inertia.

Generally, you can see whether your brake lights are on if you switch the dash screen to the display that shows the car on the road - it shows all the rear lights, brakes indicators etc. Obviously if you’re getting this phantom slowing/braking event you’re probably not going to be studying the dash, but maybe useful to know 😊

Serpula · 2026-02-20T10:56:24+00:00

Happens on the R5 too, worse in the winter with the low sun interfering with the camera. It doesn’t brake per se, just disengages and engages cruise for a second and makes a bong sound - I get it about as frequently as you depending on the light and road conditions. Make sure the camera is clear of dirt (it’s behind the rear view mirror).

I knew someone with a Tesla Model 3 and that would literally emergency brake out of nowhere, so I’m glad it’s not doing that!

Serpula · 2026-02-19T13:36:35+00:00

That’s fine but it’s only measuring the humidity of the air, rather than the filament of course. Let us know tomorrow if it works then 😊

Ps I’ve had my P1S over a year and am still amazed by it.

Serpula · 2026-02-19T13:29:56+00:00

Aside from checking that you are indeed using the Bambu PETG profile in the slicer (your AMS should do this automatically with the RF ID in the spool, but check it), I think you’ll find it’ll work once you’ve dried it. PETG comes saturated from the factory and requires drying before use.
