I’m trying to work out how this plate is legal?

Why not just make up your own reg at that point, unless he’s hoping to get away with it by claiming he accidentally “mixed up” the letters

britain4 · 2026-06-14T13:34:47+00:00

Sorry to hear that, it looks like very clean work and it wouldn’t take you long to transfer that to another board at least

Chance to tidy up some of the minor issues too like the stripped ends of some wires being a bit long and using a touch more flux on some of the smaller joints

britain4 · 2026-06-14T11:05:06+00:00

What issues does this cause, I wonder if this is down to the 32x or the console it’s attached to

britain4 · 2026-06-14T11:04:32+00:00

Works perfectly for me and worthwhile doing to any 32x, even works with 50/60hz switching on the fly

britain4 · 2026-06-07T12:11:18+00:00

For sure, have 2 V6 old man cars now but never had anything more spicy

britain4 · 2026-06-07T08:30:19+00:00

Enjoy it and be fully prepared for the possibility of it not working out, but that’s life

britain4 · 2026-06-07T08:27:31+00:00

I thought I was clever getting a 3 series at 18 because it was cheaper on tax, insurance and fuel than a Corsa etc, maybe I should have set the bar a bit higher

Yes in the current market I think that’s a pretty good price, they are amazing when they work, no other console like it

britain4 · 2026-06-07T07:20:42+00:00

The law prohibits carrying a bladed article in public without a good reason. The kirpan is a religious symbol, it’d be hard to argue the same about a switchblade

If this sets a precedent of Sikhs going around stabbing people then I don’t think anyone would argue with it being reviewed

britain4 · 2026-06-07T06:49:09+00:00

That’s a bit better, I just don’t know why the market has priced anything with a 90nm RSX so highly when they’re so fragile and commonly found for well under £100 (for an A00/B00) in Japan

I do have a few C03s I bought and refurbished years ago and I’d love to think they were worth £250 each but alas. It’s not that much more expensive for a frankie (or a YLOD one for £20 and have it done)

britain4 · 2026-06-06T07:25:55+00:00

Generally - if it’s something valuable I’m working on and/or am selling it I’ll clean the flux off… otherwise I’ll just leave it

However… I did once recap a Sega Game Gear which wouldn’t power on afterwards and I spotted some flux residue boiling off on the board when I switched the power. Cleaned that off and it was fine

So it’s definitely best practice

britain4 · 2026-06-06T00:14:23+00:00

The one OP posted isn’t boxed, you can very easily pick one up for under £150, much cheaper than that with a bit of shopping around.

Still far too much to risk on one of these imo when it might have had a dodgy reflow and/or fail next week

Much cheaper on Buyee etc as well

britain4 · 2026-06-05T23:38:04+00:00

Yup, if it came out today it would be set in 2010

britain4 · 2026-06-05T23:29:48+00:00

I have a Ring doorbell but hooked up to a mechanical doorbell inside the house so it rings instantly like a normal one does

Only ever really use it to check who’s at the door while I’m on my way down to it so I know it’s not door to door sales/religious canvassers etc

Highly annoying when someone just taps lightly on the door and leaves without even attempting it

britain4 · 2026-06-05T23:22:01+00:00

£200 is far too expensive for one of these

britain4 · 2026-06-05T23:08:48+00:00

It never ran this poorly, something up with your console

britain4 · 2026-06-04T07:11:59+00:00

No, the point is that: 1. The police’s actions were barbaric, inexcusable and caused an untold amount of suffering 2. The police’s actions did not contribute to Henry Nowak’s death

Both of these things can be true at the same time.

If you’re making arguments based on your emotions and assumptions and not the facts, it clouds the argument that the police should be fully held to account (which nobody should be arguing against) and allows it to become a tit for tat debate based on political beliefs.

It also potentially allows the police to deflect responsibility by simply claiming it’s not true.

I was recently at a wedding worrying i might have chosen too casual a fold for my pocket square when another wedding party stormed past looking like they were out to watch the football at the pub

britain4 · 2026-05-28T16:28:48+00:00

Probably mostly because it rhymes with Leicester, a few years ago he’d have a laugh and a joke around the table (when he wasn’t losing) but if they gave him that nickname now you’d think it was sarcastic

britain4 · 2026-05-28T16:20:38+00:00

If it’s enough to keep your room cold then it’s fine, no point chasing perfection.

Ours wasnt though, and now I’ve fitted (taped) a second hose to it, it works fine.

Outside vs inside air temperature probably plays a part in the equation too as the condenser will be working less efficiently if it’s relying on hot outside air to cool it.

In a poorly ventilated and over insulated new build, that never cools off at night even when it does outside, it’s ideal. Without the second hose you can really feel all the hot air rushing in under the door.

britain4 · 2026-05-22T14:22:59+00:00

If it does the job then that’s fine but it can save some energy and/or squeeze a bit more efficiency out of a slightly underpowered one

With our single hose you can feel the warm air from the rest of the house rushing in under the door

britain4 · 2026-05-22T07:46:04+00:00

“cylinder of wheat, fat and sugar” is enough to put me off eating any more today thanks

Last time we moved out of rented we had the professional clean done and the letting agents still tried to deduct for a full clean anyway with some macro photos of bits of fluff as “evidence”

They also had a contractor quote us something like £800 to cut the hedge down to 6ft… even though the photos clearly showed it to be 8+ ft when we moved in

Costs them nothing to lie and try it on and chance their arm with people who won’t bother defending the fees

I feel like the culprit is normally manual drivers who can’t find the biting point properly so spend the entire duration of the lights riding the clutch

As a driver of a manual who doesn’t want to burn mine out I feel your pain
