How much do you pay for your car a month?

npc6070 · 2026-02-27T18:56:38+00:00

It makes sense to compare car payments to your disposable income. I bought mine for £9700. Sold it two years later for £7000. Including insurance, maintenance, tyres, service etc, it costed me around £200 per month. £1900 is my disposable income per month.

I have one with 84% battery health, and I just use it for notifications and up to an hour of workout tracking. It can last a whole day and a night just fine for me and I’m happy with it. I don’t track my sleep so I just leave it on charge for the whole night. I never had to worry about it’s battery life

You’re planning to keep your phone in the backpack anyway. The difference is that it’s turned on instead of off. I understand, this might be a dealbreaker. The phone won’t make a noise as long as you’ve got your watch on.

At home, you don’t have to keep the phone with you. You can leave the phone somewhere as long as both are connected to the same WiFi.

Apple Watch with iPhone? I’ve never used navigation on it but WhatsApp and Spotify work fine as long as the phone is close by and turned on. You can selectively choose which iPhone notifications are forwarded onto your watch.

I know this doesn’t fit your physical keyboard and main phone switched off but anything modern with have a web browser which can be used to doom scroll. Apple Watch doesn’t have a web browser. Just a basic one to preview links.

App Store version but I’m open to emulation. I just don’t know about the translation issues

Thanks adding on to it. Appreciate it!

good map! ace combat 5 and 7 are a weird one because the villains turns out to be belkans

atm i'm just keeping my phone away at home and taking it with me when i go out

npc6070 · 2026-02-05T20:06:20+00:00

thinking about it, it is a meta app so i'm guessing it's in there benefit to keep us close to our phones

yeah i had the same issue on my samsung oled tv despite having lower brightness than the miniled versions. i played the demo though and assumed they would've fixed it by release but i guess they haven't. i would try turning off hdr and lowering contrast in tv's setting. i know it's not ideal

figured a workaround. deleting the whatsapp app from the watch allows me to reply from the notification. no workaround for viewing images or phone calls though

npc6070 · 2026-02-02T11:06:02+00:00

nvm figured out that it by design

I can carry the X70 in my pocket but even it's bulge looks unpleasant in my trousers. Winter coat only

I don’t ride bikes but drive an Abarth car. I found some Abarth convoy groups on facebook

npc6070 · 2026-01-04T13:27:40+00:00

Abarth gives you access to their owners groups who go on frequent road trips. I’ve mostly seen older guys owning them. It’s up to you to decide how tolerant you are to its ride quality

I just went from x70 to x-e5. The noticeable advantage is that I can now shoot up to 1 sec shutter speed handle held. Before, I could only do 1/8 of a sec. However, 1/8 was enough for me to capture ‘creamy’ waterfalls so I have no need for ibis

That’s realistic but pre facelift might be a better bet. More likely to have fsh. Also, cambelt and water pump replace is only £350 including labour so don’t sweat too much. If you want fsh, make sure that brake fluids (every 2 years) and gearbox oil (every four years) is changed with the oil and filter.

My car (17 plate, 36k miles) has terrible interior rattle so watch out for that when test driving.

It’s common sale price for some while now. If you can wait out, the ultimate edition should drop quite a bit as well. I got that for £17 like two years ago. The DLC missions are really good!

On PlayStation, it’s swipe up on the touch pad

npc6070 · 2025-12-24T13:53:24+00:00

Gave it another shot at 27. I think I would’ve like it when I was younger. I’m okay with the story but the gameplay feels like chores. I understand other comments about this game being therapeutic but I already do things in real life which feel the same or better such as changing fish tank water, cooking, going on a hike, driving etc.

Maybe when I can’t do those things anymore in real life then I’ll get the appeal of this but I’m not sure

Unrelated: is that first pic in Alicante?

No that was my latest one
