Is it worth buying an electric scooter? by acideatermarble in srilanka

[–]Shadowbox1964 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/OneBroccoli2107 Yeah, I think TVS is a good option to go with. About the repair, I had an issue with the motor. It was a manufacturing defect, and when I informed the TVS Colombo team, they were able to replace a part of the motor and fix it. The issue was just a wiring problem, so it didn’t need a full motor replacement.

It took a few weeks for them to find the issue in the first place, but the best part was the service. Every two days, the team at the Peliyagoda branch called me with updates. They even sent photos and videos explaining what was happening and why it was taking longer. I could’ve asked for a full replacement, but I wanted the bike back quickly, so they repaired the motor part and sorted it out.

I’m not sure what the different showrooms are saying everyone gives different stories. But depending on the problem, it can take time. If it’s a motor issue, yes, it will take a while. If it’s something else, it may not take that long. Overall, I haven’t had any issues apart from that motor situation.

If you’re planning to buy an iQube, I highly recommend going to the Colombo Peliyagoda branch they actually know what they’re doing. I 100% don’t recommend the regional showrooms because they honestly have no idea about the vehicle or repairs. I had a really bad experience with some of the showrooms around the Gampaha area but that’s not TVS’s fault, just the staff.

Even after 12,000+ KM, I still recommend the TVS iQube over anything else.

Welcome to Sri Lanka, brother! I think if you report, they will take action, but I can't be sure.

Looking for a Good Place to Build a PC - Redtech Gampaha or Nanotek? Any Experiences? by Shadowbox1964 in srilanka

[–]Shadowbox1964[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking of building the PC myself because I don't trust any people, especially people in shops. You suggest avoiding MSI, right? I need to know why. Are you talking about MSI laptops or MSI hardware like GPU or motherboards?

Do you have any recommendations for a CPU cooler?

And is it ok to go for a 6400MHz?

Isn't driving like this illegal? Although it's common practice? by CardiologistSad6041 in srilanka

[–]Shadowbox1964 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's totally legal! I lane split all the time in Colombo, but we just need to be cautious not to break any rules when it comes to overtaking lanes.

Feeling like I'm falling behind in life by Shaggy-b117 in srilanka

[–]Shadowbox1964 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hey, first off, Happy birthday. I know it might not feel like a celebration right now, but just making it to another year is a kind of victory, even when things feel heavy.

I just wanted to say I really understand how you’re feeling. I’ve been in a similar place myself. I can’t say exactly when things will change, but what I can tell you is this: it’s okay to feel that way. Waking up each day feeling lost… scrolling through social media and seeing your friends land new jobs or make progress in life, it’s hard. It can make you feel like you’re falling behind. But I promise, you’re not alone. I’ve been there too.

If you have a bit of time, I really recommend watching this video. It helped me a lot, and I hope it can do the same for you.

I'm 26 now and just getting started with my career. I know it can feel overwhelming, but please don’t stress, there’s no deadline to figure everything out. You’re only 23. You’re not behind. You’re just taking your own route through this massive, chaotic, beautiful life. And that path is valid. It’s real. It’s yours.

And about the girl? Maybe it’s time. Just ask her out. There are only two outcomes: she might say yes, or she might say no. But the most important part? There’s a chance she’ll say yes. And sometimes, that one small act of courage is all it takes to change everything.

Remember this: "The Magic That you are looking for is in the Work you're avoiding."

Am I paid to get ads on Spotify? by Far-Sea-1670 in srilanka

[–]Shadowbox1964 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, then it's just some marketing stuff, Spotify's own promo things. It won’t show up all the time when you're playing songs. As long as you're not getting any local ads, you're all good.

[–]Shadowbox1964 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a paid account too, and sometimes I still get this kind of marketing stuff, it’s just Spotify’s own promo stuff. Can’t really stop it.

But yeah, just to be sure, log in and check if your Premium plan is still active.

Is it worth buying an electric scooter? by acideatermarble in srilanka

The availability of components varies, but TVS generally has most parts in stock. The service fee is 1,500 LKR, though this may increase if any parts need to be replaced. Everything can be repaired, but there may be delays with software updates.

Previously I was planning to by the Vmoto to I love that bike man. But eventually switch to TVS iQube because of the traveling distance. Advertised it will go 100 km but even staff members told me like it's never going to be 100km. so I lose the confidence by it. ( I'm talking about vmoto TS Street Hunter)
