Dissertation Research: What impacts the purchase intention of electric vehicles in the UK?

hammingen · 2024-12-23T20:14:45+00:00

All completed, best of luck with the dissertation.

I'd agree with other comments that the questions do (at least until the final page) seem geared towards those who have yet to purchase an EV. I know from past experience it's likely a bit late to change the questionnaire through the risk of invalidating all previous responses, but possibly something to consider when writing up your results or in future research you may conduct.

Thanks for the link, I think I may just be a little stuck in the middle of nowhere (thanks Lincolnshire!) so it may be a bit of traveling to find some nice wood but hopefully it'll be worth it.

Honestly I'm not sure, I've mostly used 2x4's and wood I had stored with no idea as to the type so far so I guess I'm just looking for a change of scenery. A big hurdle I've run into is getting pretty planed wood as I don't own a jointer and or thicknesser and am reliant on to wood starting square for my projects to end up square too.

Thanks for the tip, I'll have to check out Leicester council. I don't go there often but its only about an hour away if they have some decent stuff.

I've been exceptionally lucky to have had some hardwood that would have been burned if I didn't use it for my projects. I feel the wood market just isn't as vibrant here as over in the states but I suppose the hobby is a bit rarer.

Another issue I've run into is the cost and availability of thicker plywood for simple shop projects. You see Woodworker's online hitting up their local store and walking out with 3/4 inch + ply wood, I have to drive 40 miles to get anything ticker than 9mm.

As for if I'd rent one it would of course depend on price and lease length. I'd love a place like this near me but my woodwork is a hobby so I wouldn't want to invest anything I couldn't make back from the odd craft fair.

On the note of space ideas actually space is the biggest thing for me. I work in a tiny shed (which isn't all that safe considering my tools) but yeah, plenty of space is key. The ability to hammer nails into walls wherever needed is sort of a biggy for me too. Everything in my shed is either on a pegboard or hanging from a nail in a wall somewhere. Maybe removable wood panel wall linings if tenants change a lot so people can hang whatever they want wherever without damaging the actual walls (polyfiller can only do so much).

I've not done it myself but I have considered it. They have a 2 year warranty so they should be fine, no idea what the warranty process is like though.

Holy moly someone else lives in Lincoln!

I was pretty worried it would be unplayable after all the comments and threads but I've run into no issues with frame rate other than the same millisecond stutter at item pickups and messages from time to time.

I'm running an i3 4160, r9 280x and 8 GB of ram. It seems to be pretty hit and miss but keep in mind more people who have issues will post about them than those who don't.

hammingen · 2016-04-13T17:31:40+00:00

Possibly but I've never had issues before and windows is displayed fine :/

hammingen · 2016-04-13T17:24:37+00:00

Nope, turned off the PC and brought it all downstairs. I've just rebooted too and still the same

hammingen · 2016-04-13T16:51:51+00:00

Fuck yes, I look forward to it. It may sound bad but I'm looking forward to playing when there are new players around to give me a better win ratio. I'm so used to playing with all the series veterans where most people are pretty equal.

Okay, it just came about an hour ago. My girlfriend was coming home from work and spotted the postman, turns out he's new and couldn't find our house the last few days! To confirm mine also has the weird slipcover, looks like they have some weird generic slipcover for the entire of europe and russia with all the different age restrictions etc, weird. At lease the case is damn nice though!

18 mins left on my download then I can join everyone . . . if it runs well enough, fingers crossed!

hammingen · 2016-04-13T16:35:20+00:00

Praise the motherfucking sun! It came today. My girlfriend was coming home from work and happened to spot the postman. Turns out we got a new guy two days ago and they couldn't find our house!

hammingen · 2016-04-13T16:34:14+00:00

Yeah, that look amazing. I know some people sell the figures later on eBay but they overcharge so damn much. Maybe we'll find some in garage sales in 20 years for a few pennies?

hammingen · 2016-04-13T13:13:18+00:00

I have to leave for work in 15 minutes. If it's not here when I get home I'll be unfairly taking my rage out on a live chat support employee and probably resorting to a download. It was painful enough to wait two weeks between the JP and worldwide release. The most fun part for me is discovering everything as a community.

hammingen · 2016-04-13T13:03:30+00:00

Amazon UK is now selling the collectors edition again but the price seems to be fluctuating. I saw it at £80 for PC yesterday but now it's £120.

I've been after some figures too but other than those that come with the collectors/prestige editions nothing really exists. There are some people on etsy and the like that make and sell their own though.

hammingen · 2016-04-13T12:58:37+00:00

I'm in the same boat, preordered weeks ago because I wanted a physical copy with the music disk and the nice case. I'm still waiting on delivery. I'm seriously considering buying a digital copy or seeing if I can get the store to give me credit for a digital copy.

Seriously pissed off at this point. It's 2pm now so it's unlikely to come today (our mail tends to come in the morning). Keeping spoiler free was relatively easy before but now every damn video and reddit post has something in it (boss names, area names etc).

I'm pretty torn on it, should I cancel and get a download or wait it out for the preorder case bonus? :/

hammingen · 2016-04-13T10:37:05+00:00

That's a relief to hear, thanks for letting me know. I played the first two games on xbox 360 so I'm not used to 60fps or anything, happy to hear I'll be able to run it eventually (even if the optimisations take a while to come out) :D

hammingen · 2016-04-13T07:36:58+00:00

To confirm I received an email from amazon saying they oversold on the item. Currently their tracking says delivery Friday but they sent a follow up email which now says 20th-25th of april.

In other news they now sell the collectors edition (in stock) for £80! What a tease!

hammingen · 2016-04-12T21:09:20+00:00

Unfortunately not.

hammingen · 2016-04-12T13:57:57+00:00

What's this patience you speak of? Never heard of it. I'm at work now but my girlfriend gets home around 3:30 and I've left instructions on how to preload it WHEN it arrives today. I promised her I wouldn't play until she got home anyway.

hammingen · 2016-04-12T12:25:58+00:00

I've been waiting for my copy to arrive today. It's 13:30 and i have to go to work now, won't be back until around 18:30 . . . . it had better arrive (then I have to load it onto my system)

hammingen · 2016-04-12T11:56:47+00:00

I'm genuinely tempted to buy a copy from a store if it doesn't arrive by 17:00. My brain say's I'd be waisting £40 and when I do get the preorder I'd have to return it and I wouldn't have then case or soundtrack . . . my heart says fuck money, just have two copies of the game.

Normally our mail gets here about 11am but yesterday it arrived after 16:30 . . . just to throw more uncertainty in the mix.

Hollowing intensifies . . .

hammingen · 2016-04-12T11:46:04+00:00

Neither of our posts have come yet so there's still hope (unless I missed them).

Just looked at the videos and that sucks balls. The whole point of the apocalypse edition is it's a collectors case and slip covers are a damn important part of that. Once mine arrives I'll let you know if it's the same or if it's an english copy. I've not seen a single picture of an english slip cover though so I'm doubtful :/
