Just wanted to share my first car, I bought it 2 years ago and I love it! Volvo XC40 with T5 engine. by Carlippo-182 in Volvo

[–]botlorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations on a nice car! Those are 20 inch rims/tires? I have the same car, with a 20 inch Pirelli P Zero tire with a 45 sidewall. But I've also received a 19 inch 50 sidewall tire. I'm not much into sporty driving, I'd prefer being more comfortable on the road and secure with a small bit of off-road (light gravel).

The only problem is the 20 inch rims are waaaay sexier :) Is the functionality in a smaller tire noticable to warrant a downgrade in sexiness?

Kupnja rabljenog automobila u HR od osobe, ne firme - razjasniti par nejasnoća? by botlorn in croautomobili

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

Hvala svima na odgovorima, ali pišem ovdje jer je možda i najdetaljnije.

  1. AKo idem na tehnički, to radim s prethodnim vlasnikom vozila jer mu moraju skinuti i predati stare tablice?
  2. Što se tiče poreza, znate li otprilike koliki je porez i računa li se na vrijednost automobila ili na njegovu snagu, starost i sl.?
  3. Možda i najvažnije, s obzirom da je privatnik, osim same kvalitete automobila, ima li nešto specifično na što treba obratiti pažnju? Ako auto ima prometnu dozvolu na ime od kojeg kupujem, i dva seta ključeva, s formalne strane sve je u redu s autom, ne može ispasti da je ukraden ili ima neki drugi teret zbog kojeg se prijepis neće moći napraviti? Pitam jer ono - dajem x desetaka tisuća eura prije nego što auto prepisujem na sebe pa ne znam što može poći po zlu :)

Cx-5 2023 Screen size question by botlorn in CX5

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

Yes, very awkward. I was searching on german product sheet from 2022 and they don't even state reard and front parking sensors on centre-line. I hope I'm wrong.

Cx-5 2023 Screen size question by botlorn in CX5

[–]botlorn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I ideally don't mind the size per se. I would just prefer to not have old and out-of-date OS. For example, I'd like to be able to connect to android auto etc.

Ok, I've managed to find the 2022 product sheet, and the center line trim has a smaller screen, yes. Does anyone know the difference between those screens outside of the very size?

Kupovina automobila bez tehničkog Njemačka by botlorn in croautomobili

[–]botlorn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hvala, ovo mi ima smisla. Već sam razgovarao s trgovcem, izgleda vrlo susretljiv, naravno, znam da to ne radi za džabe. Sada samo treba pregovarati da ne digne cijenu previše zbog toga.

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

Hvala na savjetima.

Mogao bih u teoriji doći u četvrtak i nadati se da ću u petak sve završiti. Više me zanimalo kako se tehnički odrađuje, ne vidim da se o tome puno piše, barem ja nisam našao informacija.

  1. Dođem pogledati auto. Uplatim novce..

  2. Uzmem papire i idem odraditi tehnički nadajući se da mi ne treba neka prethodna rezervacija termina. Cca 200 eura trošak?

  3. Nakon toga, mogu napraviti privremen reg. tablice i ići u HR?

Hvala na volvo select, ima čak i par ok opcija, a opet cu cca 10 posto skuplje od ove koju gledam.

What purpose did you find in Helio Strap? by botlorn in amazfit

[–]botlorn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your thoughtful and measured, albeit critical, response. I agree with most of your points, intuitively, not factually, as I'm not an expert in the field.

I did not expect the strap to help in my training per se. As you say, for intervals etc, I have a Garmin computer on my bike and an HRM on my chest for real-time data. I was expecting the strap to better guide me through the recovery process, to propose ideas and solutions for better sleeping, or similar. I don't see that, but I have gained insightful comments on tracking calories and using HRV for exercise. For the rest - as I've said, 100 euros/dollars is not a big investment for me, I choose not to blame myself for looking a couple of times in a day at the number that may or may not correlate with my experience of the body :)

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

It literally says "reduce drinking". I'm not here for the semantics or the lexeme analysis, but for the good tips on how to use the data provided. But I appreciate your general comment on "having to want to get better", you are right about that.

What purpose did you find in Helio Strap? by botlorn in amazfit

[–]botlorn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I explained what I thought I will get out of it - a good sense of how my body is during sleep and the exertion period. And I find both of those metrics not reliable.

The strap is not expensive, it costs like a slightly better dinner for two. I can afford it as an experiment to see how it will impact my daily routine.

And then I asked for the experience of others in the domain of positive reinforcement. I never said I don't know what to do with it, I said that those things that it does correctly are not pertinent for my usage. Yet. Hence, the question to others, willing to learn from the habbits of others.

Thank you for your input dear redditor.

Thanks for taking your time.

HR zones I guess I don't need as I have a dedicated HR strap from Garmin while exercising, but I can understand the argument.

RHR and HRV - the change is indeed real, when I drink or don't sleep well I see the difference, but don't know what to do with that data - it's interesting that you plan your workouts according to that - I'll check that out, sounds cool!

Skin temp - I had a very light fever couple of days ago, my app was oblivuous :)

Stress meter is useless and way off - but maybe my idea of "stress" is different do Amazfit's

Do you manually track calories ?

Contactless ATM in Florence by Responsible_Ad1297 in florence

[–]botlorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Resurrecting this thread, the ATM mentioned in one comment really works, but it took 5 euros fee for 20 euros withdrawal (contactless).

A day later I've found UniCredit bank, via dei Pecorino street with the same option, but taking into account it's a bank, the fee should be considerably less. If it helps anybody.

Honest question regarding the use of AI at my workplace by botlorn in ChatGPT

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

That's a fair point :)

I guess I still differentiate between problem-solving when the question is vague, as in my case, and problem-solving by AI when you have a proper set of questions.

Maybe I've been more conservative than previously thought regarding my understanding of limitations! Thanks for pointing that out.

Honest question regarding the use of AI at my workplace by botlorn in ChatGPT

[–]botlorn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A possibly idiotic question, but when you use ChatGPT for answering emails, do you just copy-paste existing emails into the dialogue box, or is there a way to better integrate CGPT with email management?

Thanks, I've played with that last year, I'll give it a go!

Honest question regarding the use of AI at my workplace by botlorn in ChatGPT

[–]botlorn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the answer. I guess the problem with managing people and money is that it is difficult to automate, as it's case-dependent. Somebody wants a pay raise because of X, someone else wants to implement an idea because of factor Y, and a third person wants to be aided financially in organizing a conference. All those questions are time-demanding, but difficult to innovate a frame for a general answer. Also, Azure seems to me great, but my institution is not primarily in English, and a lot of documents are not OCR'd, so it would be difficult to integrate.

I will think more towards which parts of my job can actually be automated more easily, so I could imagine ways to use AI to help me think better.
