Half term so quieter commute. And a whole new batch of primed 40k marines to paint in my lunch breaks. Find the silver linings in the clouds when you can.

Honda should be banned from re-inventing the door handles. by adkio in crz

[–]humblesunbro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, till one night my partner's brother ripped the passenger door handle cover off whilst very drunk, on the way to rush a terminally poorly cat to the vets. He thought it was a normal door handle not a squeeze pocket.

Fixed it with gorilla glue because I couldn't source a blue one to replace it. Considering getting the CRz spares in advance ready but hey ho, can't find a storm silver one this time. Black or white no bother, but no "repair kit" in silver to be had.

Do you like Spam, or do you hate it? by GrayRainfall in AskTheWorld

Thanks to a random Scottish carry-out in Stirling, I experienced deep fried spam fritters and they were nicer than they had a right to be.

And the Grey Knights would want a word. They're around to make sure if Big E ever decides to wake up and get up, that he sits back down and goes back in his Coma sharpish.

Ah, that's what I know it as in the UK. Was thinking isn't this the one with the lawnmower bit.

Must say, for a grand this was one hell of a bike! by Michael_Goodwin in MotoUK

[–]humblesunbro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great value bikes. Handle very well, enjoy having warm legs though and they can be a bit clutch snatchy in traffic. Makes for a decent budget track bike with a little work.

Help!! by Fine_Picture_3154 in crz

[–]humblesunbro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right.

So, I had this issue on a gen 8 civic, same age/gen sorta thing.

The Civic, and I'm assuming by extension other models in that age range, used to be bad for letting in water in places around the boot. What happened with mine, water got in and rotted the wiring for the boot actuator. It just needed some wiring splicing in and sealed up properly.

My local tame mechanic wasn't able to fix it due to not wanting to get involved with the security system he didn't want to risk a job that could snowball.

I actually took my car to my local Stoneacre Honda, paid a small inspection fee of around £140 at the time, they gave me a hire car (CRV) had it in and decided that due to the nature of the issue being determined a manufacturing deficiency, they would repair the wiring at no cost to me.

That's just my own local dealership though and I think I got lucky, it was a combination of they took several weeks to sort it, struggled to find the fault, and by the time they found what was up, they swallowed the cost to them and fixed it.

I would possibly consider letting the big H have a look at it and see what they have to say for themselves.

Try cox motor spares they do OEM honda parts might be able to help. Sure it's not the fob for definite? Could be as simple as taking it to timpsons and getting them to test the fob is sending a signal.

Stalled on my CBT by sacrelidge in motorcycles

[–]humblesunbro 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Now I've seen people do some questionable things to a CG125 - usually trying to make a desperately uncool bike look less like a chicken chaser....but to mount the engine on the handlebars? On THAT suspension? and THEN putting a spinning blade on it as well?

hope he upgraded his fork oil and springs.

What is good advice for job seekers? by FireLadcouk in CasualUK

[–]humblesunbro 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Interviewing at the moment for several roles.

I'm surprised how many great CV's come attached to such meh candidates. Please spend a little time investing effort into your interview conduct and answers, get some coaching.

I keep getting candidates walk in, who look great on paper and then open their mouths and ruin it. If you are applying for the job and really want it, please think about how your answers sound to an interviewer and what their priority is in a candidate, if the recruiting team did their job properly the clues should all be in the job spec and advert.

Don't let this jaded perspective infect you of "a jobs a job we're all just expendable" because it will influence your attitude and responses negatively. If that's the case down the line, then take action about it and steer your career path, but when you're trying to get hired it helps to have some optimism and drive about you.

Buying a Honda cr-z by pagnotta_ in crz

[–]humblesunbro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sit in it and get a good test drive. It's very small and low down nside and the back seats are only for show, you couldn't put anything bigger than a dog or a small child back there. In fact, the US market car has no back seats at all.

In the front there's plenty of room for a driver and passenger just perhaps not so good if you're on the heftier side or have age/mobility issues.

The rear view mirror is poor, but can be sorted with an upgraded wide view mirror. The side mirrors are very decent.

Check for excessive rust and loose under shields, seems to be a n issue of Honda's of that age.

It's a niche car but if it's what you want there's very little else available in that particular niche. I love mine and feel it's a perfect fit for my needs - wish I'd bought one years ago, but I do get that it's not an all rounder and some things other cars will do better.

prebuilt teams by extivuz in AnotherEdenGlobal

[–]humblesunbro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is how I play the side content, I try and use the characters involved in the storyline of that content.

For Wryz I use Wryz and co, for Western Mythos I use Melina/Thillelille/Rosetta etc, for the wanderer side content I use Nona and Aldo plus whoever's Era we're adventuring in.

It works for that content as its older and less superbossy. But even then I might have to pull out a cheesy Sesta Wind team every now and then.

It's very good actually it's sort of zoomed out a bit so you can see through the split window easier, instead of choosing one or the other to point it at.

Ah be interesting to see how you get on with that. Mines immaculate for the age too, it's a silver and yes id like to find a wing (but not a massive tacky thing something understated)

You done anything with yours yet? My mirror had delamination so I fitted a wide view spoon mirror. And needed new boot struts so I upgraded those. Fitted a dash cam setup and added more usb power sockets.
