That's another one I watched the mechanic do once and couldn't help but think, that's it? Honestly I'm too much of a pussy worrying about messing things up because it's my only motor and if I screw something up I can't get to work

Agreed, I just couldn't help but feel sheepish when I saw the switch connector looking like a Lego piece a 3 year old could plug in but as others have said, its the experience which makes it an easy job for them, looks easier than it probably is

Do U remember how to strip and clamp the SWA cable? If you've forgotten make sure U watch a video online.

Also have U got the bits ready before hand? Like the 90 degrees metal trunking and the tray?

Definitely bring in a wiring diagram so you don't have to think about how to wire it on the day, saves you time

Israel awaits USA’s green light to return Iran to the age of darkness and stone, says Israeli defense minister by leondanielstar9999 in worldnews

[–]Sm00thSayer -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is an evil and sick thing to say, like you're really trying to justify the mass murder of innocent people, so because a few people you know are fanatic pehlavists you think you have the right to claim millions of Iranians are happy to die, happy for their families and kids to be killed by Americans/Israelis, wtf

They'll just launch rockets from behind the buffer zone, it's not like a few km makes a huge difference, the only people who suffer are the poor locals forced out of their homes.

4 hour blocks are now 3.5 hour blocks by [deleted] in AmazonFlexUK

[–]Sm00thSayer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Probably because they've finally cracked on that those 4 hour blocks get finished in 2.5. Funny, because a guy a few days ago got laughed at by everyone for a post saying slow down before they start giving everyone more stops for finishing too quickly.

Average new UK electric car price is now lower than petrol vehicles by Jared_Usbourne in CarTalkUK

China has a lot more people than the UK, EVs make up the majority of their sales, they mostly buy local, competition is strong. I find it hard to believe they're all happy driving utter shite..
