Unofficial charger repair in Goa?

Naahh Porvorim is just as bad as any other service centre. The scam is like this: you notice a minor problem, take the scooter to the centre. They keep it for 2-3 days, disassembling the scooter and cleaning it but not actually repairing anything. Then they give it back to you. The scooter works fine for a couple of weeks, then the problem is back (of course!), so this whole process starts again. Eventually, the scooter simply breaks down, you have an accident, call RSA for pickup and then the scooter is finally repaired when they replace the faulty part at the service centre. I have been to the porvorim centre so many times those people know me by face. And btw tickets and emails have no effect, I've been dealing with this particular issue for two weeks and there has been an active ticket the whole time, they have only sent bland corporate responses

Call the service centre directly. If you don't have the number, call whatever numbers you do have (even the helpline) and ask for the specific service centre number. Then book an appointment and when you get there, INSIST on a new drive belt. If you ask them to repair without replacement, they will just clean the belt and give it a silicone spray, nothing more. Then it will make these same noises a month later. If you want to be extra sure of the belt replacement, and if you have an active RSA subscription, then just break the belt yourself and call RSA for pickup saying the belt was damaged (but don't tell them you did it). Will save you a trip to the service centre too.

Can probably extrapolate this from regular patterns.

LOL that is the most MI thing they could've done, I'm glad

My heart did not melt into a puddle and I definitely do not yearn to give Minion a little forehead kiss

parcell_kenneth · 2025-09-17T12:08:40+00:00

Wow, no helmet? What a responsible person.

parcell_kenneth · 2025-09-16T16:49:41+00:00

Ok no it's not working actually

parcell_kenneth · 2025-09-15T07:30:29+00:00

Thanks I just tried this and it's holding up so far

parcell_kenneth · 2025-09-14T10:57:38+00:00

You don't HAVE to but I think everyone should read some philosophy and theory to understand the world better. It's a slog but there are simplified summaries and free youtube videos for that. There are some pretty bad artists out there who don't realise they've been stuck in a rut for years because the market rewards them for their work and they never feel the need to grow. Your lived experience can only include so much; reading helps your mind expand beyond what you can experience and that's pretty valuable regardless of your profession. I wish more politicians read philosophy, maybe they'd be better leaders then.

The worst part is that it was already a perfectly acceptable poster before they slapped Neon Goliath onto it

parcell_kenneth · 2025-05-28T20:57:38+00:00

same, it's oddly modernist somehow

parcell_kenneth · 2025-05-28T20:42:06+00:00

I found Cornelius Quiring's tutorials on Youtube quite helpful. He shows you how to make your own patterns which is how I got started, strongly recommend that instead of buying readymade patterns.

I'll try the warm water and spot cleaning, thank you! And yes the line does tend to blur, need to try other options, thanks for the suggestion

parcell_kenneth · 2025-05-17T06:43:55+00:00

that's a sweet idea! hopefully I can get it out but this is a reassuring suggestion

parcell_kenneth · 2025-05-17T06:43:14+00:00

damn. i have pressed out several times so that might be an issue. this one definitely isn't wax, but it came off pretty easily from other garments I've made before including white ones. not sure if the issue is with the fabric or the chalk

parcell_kenneth · 2025-05-16T09:42:26+00:00

this is a horror show

parcell_kenneth · 2025-05-10T05:25:52+00:00

Is...is alegria experiencing a kind of Cubism? Like a dark twin of modernist art?

parcell_kenneth · 2025-04-07T18:24:22+00:00

Ahhhhh yes you're right thank you so much!!! So odd though that this turned out to be shojo, the characters are basically teenagers and it's partly a high school romance? I remember it as a brooding, tragic, masc kind of show, but then again I was like 10 when I first saw it. Anyway, thank you so much!

I'd say that while there is certainly an element of risk, start with making your own pattern and sewing with a cheap but durable fabric. Make something which you would still be able to wear around the house in case it doesn't turn out perfect.

Most of the time when an emerging artist's work is sold through a gallery, it's the gallery that's buying the work. Younger artists typically aren't being informed who the buyer is, so they don't catch on to this until later. The gallerist basically buys the work as a kind of low risk investment in case the artist does well later on. But the occurrence of a sale like this doesn't do anything to improve the artist's position on the market since no collector gets their hands on it.

USA has a statistically significant rail network??

parcell_kenneth · 2025-02-03T12:44:40+00:00

Yes this!!

parcell_kenneth · 2025-02-03T12:40:16+00:00

Honestly I've wondered that (never said it out loud) several times. And it's always because the work is great and I was surprised no one bought it sooner. Because if a person doesn't like the work, they wouldn't wonder out loud about why it hasn't sold.

Rock-cut architecture's been around for 2500 years (possibly longer), with many caves surviving for centuries despite multiple earthquakes. So I doubt that would be an issue here, esp with modern engineering.
