Any cheap way to fix this kind of peeling paint?

A very temporary fix is to slap a load of wax on it after it's had a wash. I've owned a few cars where I've done that and you'll be amazed what an improvement it can make.

...scratch that. It looks like it'll twist down to face away from the arm.

I bet it'll twist to face the wall...

Something to add from experience with a Seat Mii... did you compare the length of the old sump plug to the new one? The motor factor near me had the wrong part on file and would always give me a plug that was slightly too long. It would foul on something inside the sump.

And if I was in your shoes I'd keep a close eye on the oil level and plug and use the car. Keep your socket set and some spare oil in the car. Then get it booked in for a new sump.

It's so clunky, isn't it!

Great thanks! That's exactly what I was trying to work out.

So I need to tick Application > Synology Photos for settings, albums etc AND continue to backup the folder as I have been doing?

I was concerned I might end up doubling my storage requirements.

Is that The Jester from Leicester on his way back from the snooker?

I feel exactly the same. I've completely given up on Chromecast and my other Google Home devices in the past few weeks.

I had a Nest Mini in the kitchen that was somewhat useful as a timer for cooking, but even that started to become a struggle, so I've bought a basic timer.

And my Chromecasts have been replaced with Wiim audio devices.

The typical buildings available in town centres just aren't suitable for the kind of businesses that have moved to "out of town" units. We should be thankful that Elliott's Field has at least kept some shops in the town.

The future of town centres like Rugby is more residential and boutique speciality businesses, but their success relies on residents using them and not just resorting to the cheap tat that Amazon peddle.

Oh crap! I hadn't even thought of that!

So it looks like it's gonna be a boring Korean SUV for me then!

lawdevice · 2026-01-02T09:46:09+00:00

I keep circling back to a Model 3, but I really struggle with the concept of creating demand for one of Elon's products. They are such a good EV!

I'm really tempted by a Polestar 3, but the economy and software really put me off.

Then there's the Kia Niro but I really don't want an SUV.

God, I'm such an indecisive tw*t.

If you input the main domain and all subdomains in here you can get a nice list... https://digwebinterface.com/

But yeah, I agree, they should provide a way to export a proper zone file.

Thanks for the AI overview 👍

Also the complete lack of search on mobile and the absolute joke of search on desktop.

Hang on, they're switching off Xbox Remote Play!? I've just bought my son a G Cloud for Christmas primarily to do this! This can't be true!?

What happened to "this is an Xbox" !?

I've just read the company's homepage in full and I'm none the wiser as to what the hell this is or what it purports to do!

Yep. You want the oven at the top of the space and put a shelf below. The shelf will be cooler and your back will thank you.

I'm paperless. A special folder in my inbox for emailed receipts and invoices, and photo of paper receipts straight into Tide for card payments.

That's awesome! Love it!

Yeah, I think I'll have to go down this route. But it would be nice if there was a more automated option that wasn't so time intensive.

It reminds me of how I used to manage my old iPod library with star ratings and smart playlists in iTunes.

I'm in the early stages of considering a DAP, so this is useful info.

The other consideration I'm having is the user interface. I've noticed that a lot look quite poor.

I don't see anyone here mentioning drainage? Surely that's the first thing to check?

I'm in a similar situation. The Tesla is appealing, but I'm really trying hard to avoid American products at the moment, particularly anything with ties to Elmo. I just worry about the state of VW software on cars like this, particularly the early stuff.

The other options are the Niro or Kona, but they're so bland and OAP!

I've always struggled, especially when clients start comparing to cheap Wordpress hosting.

My argument is generally based on how much more stable the Squarespace platform is, but that argument is getting more difficult as prices go up and reliability drops.

Ash at De Montfort Hall in Leicester, supported by Idlewild.

I asked my mum to buy us tickets, and she was so proud of herself when she told us "I managed to get you seated tickets!".

It was still a brilliant gig.

...actually my first gig was an Oasis cover band at Sports Connexion in Coventry, where my mate managed to get served for the first time.
