some people are sheep, some are not.

[rapid aurora]

Because some people see them as their idol and follow them like sheep and we should only care to avoid them?

Ops.

I love my new iPhones battery life

[rapid aurora]

Is that good

[somber leaf]

I’ve been using it non stop since 9 and ive used total only like 60% battery life

I only recharged it so I keep a small depth of discharge to keep it healthy

I didn’t need to

[rapid aurora]

That's pretty cool actually but idk what time is it for you rn

[somber leaf]

6pm

So 9 hours

[rapid aurora]

Yeah that's a pretty long time

[prime python]

yeah, you need to stare exactly 66s at it

if you look away it resets

[rapid aurora]

My phone somewhat still stays for a solid amount of time 7am to like 6pm when I have work or school
A soldier since 2021

But I really want to change it soon

[last siren]

can iPhones get faster charging speeds

surely we can at least get 50W

[rapid aurora]

That would be bad for their battery

[last siren]

50W would be bad for their battery

there’s phones that charge at 240W

no excuses

I’m not gonna look up which phones support 50

[rapid aurora]

I believe that there are consequences of that if you main it

[last siren]

like what? battery technology moves forward

things improve

it’s not some impossible feat

[rapid aurora]

But still, apple really wants to make their phones stay longer for their users

[last siren]

you can have same battery lifespan with faster charging speeds

lol Apple wants you to upgrade asap

[rapid aurora]

Adding a fast charging will only make their phone stay with the user for a short time

[last siren]

that’s why features get restricted all the time

just upgrade

[keen kernel]

GUHHH COPYRIGHT GOBLINS ARE DESTROYING MY YT MUSIC EXPERIENCE

[somber leaf]

They support 25 watt charging which is sane

[rapid aurora]

25watt that's pretty good for iphones yeah

[last siren]

It’s fine

[last siren]

you’re wrong

[rapid aurora]

Chinese companies are always selling cheap phones that have a really fast charging
We all know these phones won't be as powerful as the same you first bought, after some time it'll give you a bad experience

[last siren]

cheap and they’re 500-1000 USD

[raw panther]

minky oh the misery oh the misery cat enemy enemy cat gif

[last siren]

Apple is known to not adopt new tech until it’s matured enough

all it’s about

[rapid aurora]

Well that's cheap compared to other flagships

[somber leaf]

The faster beyond 1C (or a full charge in 1 hour) you go the more inefficient charging becomes (more power is wasted as heat), the less charge the battery holds (you can lose 10% or more effective capacity with fast charging) and the more complex the internal cell layout of the battery becomes making it large and taking more space or smaller per the phones limited dimensions

SUPER FAST CHARGING is frankly dumb

[rapid aurora]

Chinese only offer temporary electronics that give a good value for your money

[last siren]

that’s the price of iPhones

husk

[rapid aurora]

$500?

[last siren]

iPhone SE

[jaunty trellis]

minky

[raw panther]

minky

[last siren]

oh I guess that doesn’t exist

[jaunty trellis]

also am sad the minky speech bubble gif got nuked

[rapid aurora]

Who uses iphone SE anyways
Just wait for the 4th gen

[jaunty trellis]

also also I'm still dying

[raw panther]

why

[jaunty trellis]

sick

[rapid aurora]

I would probably go insane if I use a phone with iphone 8 design

[last siren]

what?

[raw panther]

I might get sick, wife might have adenovirus

[rapid aurora]

Oh wait iphone SE 4 is $500

I forgot

[last siren]

that doesn’t exist

iPhone SE 2020 is the latest one

new one is releasing soon

[rapid aurora]

Yep and it'll cost $500 right?

[paper gate]

@jaunty trellis

[somber leaf]

iPhone SE 2 exists with a iPhone 13 class A15 soc and 4GB of ram but being in a iPhone6s shell it has a pathetic battery life of around 4-6 with medium use

[last siren]

SE 2020 was 399

they’ll keep the same price

or bump it up by 50

[rapid aurora]

No doubt iphone SE 2024 will be similar in price or more

[keen kernel]

GUHHH IM KILLING YOUTUBE MUSIC WHAT IS THISSSS

[jaunty trellis]

zoog how get unsick

[last siren]

still a good phone tbh

[rapid aurora]

Although the iPhone SE is powerful, there aren't a lot of people who main it

[somber leaf]

It is if you don’t use it all that much.

[last siren]

I’ve purchased it for some family members

[somber leaf]

Cause it has terrible battery life

[paper gate]

I cure you

[rapid aurora]

Exactly

Iphone SE would be suitable as a secondary phone

If you want value

[stone pawn]

OK I will definitely remember to do so

Oh and enjoy

[last siren]

average person won’t look up battery life of a phone tbf

once they have it, they deal with it

[raw panther]

android better

[rapid aurora]

I mean if a phone can give me what I need
I won't care about the battery that much

[open pasture]

[glossy swallow]

inserts super lesbian animal rpg ost into your playlist

[last siren]

you can just use a small power bank

[somber leaf]

Yeah. And it does not have mag safe charging which is a plus

[last siren]

there’s magsafe cases

[last siren]

magsafe case adds that

:3

[rapid aurora]

I have some bad experience with powerbanks
Somewhat they are so slow at charging when I put them at night

30% to 55% in 8 hours, I believe I bought a bad one

[last siren]

you don’t need 15W charging anyways

bad for your battery

[somber leaf]

You shouldn’t use it tho. It’s already thin and hard for it to cool that a15. Also wireless charging is around 40-60 efficient at best

[last siren]

5W is good enough to keep your phone charging

[rapid aurora]

My phone uses 67watt

[stone pawn]

I made a makeshift power bank out of my dewalt batteries

[glossy swallow]

it's funny how the mac magsafe charger solves a problem that everyone thinks might happen but has never actually happened to anyone before

[last siren]

I’ve used only wireless on my SE and never had any issues

[somber leaf]

It’s just a cigarette lighter charger connected to it yeah?

[rapid aurora]

Powerbanks can be annoying sometimes

[keen kernel]

GUHH STOP STEALING MUSICCCC

[stone pawn]

I can keep my laptop running for like a good two hours or so while playing games using it

[last siren]

there’s many trash power banks out there

It has happened to me and a girl In 1 class I was in multiple times in highschool

[keen junco]

@paper gate

[rapid aurora]

As a 67watt user
Using a 33watt or less for my phone

Is just painful 😭

[glossy swallow]

also idk why battery life is that important for a battery

i mean a laptop

That's like the whole point of a laptop though

[stone pawn]

The van's cigarette lighter but that would kill the battery in about 15 minutes

[somber leaf]

I get the haha funny of this but it’s actually stupidly hard to predict it accurately unless it’s a from zero charge in controlled environment

[last siren]

fair

[glossy swallow]

i would not suggest using a laptop while driving

[last siren]

I get it too

[glossy swallow]

[lavish schooner]

i wasn't disagreeing with you

[stone pawn]

I'm not the one driving silly

[rapid aurora]

wow you gave me an idea

[stone pawn]

Also its when I'm sitting in the van when its off

[last siren]

I’m ok with them limiting it to the latest model for best accuracy

[glossy swallow]

good

[stone pawn]

If it was idling there would be no issue

[glossy swallow]

so i guess smoking is bad for laptops?

[main wyvern]

i thought this was already a thing

God I want a laptop so badly
It's so painful to wait until you get home and use your pc

I remember my old laptop, I used to always watch videos before sleeping for hours and actually enjoy my time learning something

[somber leaf]

Why

[somber leaf]

I got a laptop and then used it for YouTube and discord

[last siren]

to have the best accuracy?

[glossy swallow]

get jennifer's windows vista laptop

Its nice for rotting in bed watching movies

[glossy swallow]

(password hint: australia)

[last siren]

didn’t you just say it’s hard to make a correct prediction

[rapid aurora]

OMG YESSS

[last siren]

what

I agree with that

[stone pawn]

I refuse to watch movies in under 4k HDR like a poor person

[rapid aurora]

I hate watching on my phone's
It's just small and painful
Omg

[last siren]

so limit it to the latest models when they inevitably figure it out

[rapid aurora]

I think I regret selling my laptop for a stupid pc

[modern epoch]

h

[rapid aurora]

I had a secondary laptop but I gave it away

[stone pawn]

Maybe idk it depends on what you do

[rapid aurora]

I miss it too

[glossy swallow]

i use my desktop pc a lot more than laptop

[modern epoch]

[glossy swallow]

but a laptop is handy

[stone pawn]

Personally a laptop really fits what I do rn so its good

But like 5 years down the line idk

[glossy swallow]

if you need to bring up google maps while driving

[main wyvern]

i use my steam deck as a portable computer

[rapid aurora]

I only play games
Whenever I watch videos It's just uncomfortable and I don't keep up with what's going on in the video

Sitting + watching

[paper gate]

what is that

[stone pawn]

Yuck

Steam Deck is a computer

[paper gate]

no

[glossy swallow]

i just remembered laptops have x86 cpus usually but even they are different to desktop cpus

[somber leaf]

Steam deck at its size and 720 is fine. What’s more important is brightness and color accuracy which it mostly has

[stone pawn]

Mobile chips

[main wyvern]

i might but prob not any time soon

[last siren]

I love my OLED

[stone pawn]

That's about it

what if I don’t want to hear outside noises

[rapid aurora]

As an LCD user
I feel sick whenever I experience OLED or AMOLED

Because I'm not used to it but it's cool

[stone pawn]

Use WW1 era war gasses to get rid of the ants

surely they’ll at least hide

that’s fine by me

[stone pawn]

And they'll come right back out

[wooden socket]

Why does my t-shirt have a french flag on the label

@open pasture

[last siren]

do you love

[open pasture]

this might be able to create chomky menubar

[stone pawn]

An ant would likely survive only a short time on top of an ice cube, as it is cold-blooded and unable to function in freezing temperatures. The cold would quickly immobilize the ant, and if exposed for too long, it could die from the low temperature, usually within minutes to an hour. If the ice begins to melt and the temperature rises, the ant might survive longer.

[paper gate]

@open pasture @open pasture @open pasture

[last siren]

this would be a cool experiment

[stone pawn]

Its basically night at 3pm in poland

What if we choose suicidal ants for the experiment

[paper gate]

guess I'll never know what it means then

[last siren]

nah

their survival instinct would kick in

[stone pawn]

What normal kinda and would willingly kill itself by sitting on an ice cube and freezing to death

Also ants are like drones they just follow pheromone trails

Even to their death

They aren't very sentient

Yeah sun set before Christmas was about 4ish in northern ireland

That's all I remember because that's about when I finished work

[last siren]

I mean how much can they see with their small eyes

the eyes are miniscule

[stone pawn]

They aren't capable of higher levels of thinking

They just sorta do things

They're neat I like ants

Silly little robot things

[paper gate]

small bugs don't really feel pain i think

[last siren]

I still kill them though but it’s nothing personal

sometimes I’ll leave them alone

[stone pawn]

I mean they're debatabely sentient

[mystic salmon]

🎉

[stone pawn]

If they do feel pain its in a different way from us

[paper gate]

I'm not sentient

[stone pawn]

With the whole exoskeleton thing and all that

[last siren]

they def feel pain

[stone pawn]

I know, you live inside my computer

[last siren]

I wonder how much of pain

[stone pawn]

Are you like

Hoping they feel pain?

[last siren]

no

[stone pawn]

You were just kinda phrasing it that way

[last siren]

I don’t like living creatures feeling too much pain

that’s all

it’s inevitable for them to feel pain

that’s life

[wooden socket]

I just deleted a bunch of apps on my phone

[stone pawn]

But then the definition of pain is like kinda weird

[wooden socket]

That I haven't used since 2022

[stone pawn]

Can a mindless drone feel actual pain

Or is it like something else

[last siren]

what is actual pain

the pain scale is way different

for them and us

[stone pawn]

Yeah but the question is do they actually process it in the same way at vertebrates do

[lavish schooner]

😭

[stone pawn]

Like if you give an ant some weird pheremone it'll straight up think its dead and carry itself the the ant graveyard

And yes ants have graveyards

[last siren]

wtf

I didn’t know that

[stone pawn]

Yeah its funky

[last siren]

ants are cool when they’re not being annoying

[stone pawn]

They basically just signal like everything using pheromones

They can go into a big circular march of death because of pheromones

Its like bad programming

[stone pawn]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ant_mill

[last siren]

so interesting

[stone pawn]

You should capture the ants

And be like some fucked up god that experiments with them

[somber leaf]

They almost have like a hive mind and can collectively work out how to get misshaped or large objects through areas and their nests over time

Hypothermia for sure

hyperthermia will make you want to die

[stone pawn]

After a while you'll start to feel warm with hypothermia

[sudden sun]

@open pasture hug

[last siren]

only if it’s too cold though

[stone pawn]

Then you die soon after but that's only a minor side effect

I think its more dependent on body temp iirc

[last siren]

Wikipedia basically says that it’s probably one of two things: either your brain gets so confused that it starts registering cold as heat, or your blood vessels get so exhausted that they relax and let the blood flow back to your extremities (which feels hot but means your core is about to DROP)

[stone pawn]

Oh nice

Either way at least you die feeling warm ig?

[last siren]

yeah

[stone pawn]

So that's... Not terrible

[last siren]

definitely beats hyperthermia

Unless you're like jumping into a volcano

[somber leaf]

It’s your blood vessels dilating letting all that warm blood from your core out to your extremities after your body selectively cuts off your limbs to maintain your core and brain.

It’s a last ditch effort to keep you alive before you die

[wooden socket]

God I hate how they do road tax here

It should be paid in the fuel

Not the car

[wooden socket]

DVLA wanting more money as usual but not fixing pot holes

[glossy swallow]

why and how did i come up with the name john flopfish

[wooden socket]

Fuel is too expensive already

[stone pawn]

Crazy how your road tax goes up like crazy because you have a newer car lol

[stone pawn]

Yeah but it would make actual sense

People that drive more

[wooden socket]

It was like £1.36 in November

[stone pawn]

Make more emissions

Pay more tax

[stone pawn]

Yeah same here

[wooden socket]

I drive like 1000 miles per month

When the car works

[stone pawn]

I used to have to drive for my old job

Thank fuck I don't have to now

[stone pawn]

Yeah that would be nice

[wooden socket]

I need new tyres on the front

Got some old ass Michelin's on it rn

[stone pawn]

Our work van has had ~5000 miles put on it since september

[stone pawn]

Yes please replace the 2006 tires lmao

[wooden socket]

Yeah I will

[stone pawn]

They are literally as old as me

[keen junco]

@paper gate the end is neigh

[wooden socket]

And me

[stone pawn]

Crazy

I am not clicking that

[wooden socket]

When I broke down on the dual carriageway I actually thought the tyre burst

Because it was a pop sound

And then traction control light came on

[glossy swallow]

lol this always seems to happen on real hardware

the menu opens upwards and is cut off

[stone pawn]

Only ever saw that once in my car

[wooden socket]

10 year old detected

[glossy swallow]

....how

[keen junco]

Never had that before

[glossy swallow]

huh

if you press the ... in explorer

[open pasture]

f

[glossy swallow]

menu gets cut off for me....

[stone pawn]

Gave it a little bit too much gas when going round a turn

[glossy swallow]

happening both in vm and real hardware

[keen junco]

I'll have to try it tomorrow I guess

[glossy swallow]

is this a skill issue

[stone pawn]

Honestly I didnt notice anything being up if not for the ping noise and the tc light

Lol

[wooden socket]

Mine is FWD so when I floor it the tyres spin out sometimes

Especially when turning

[stone pawn]

Yeah we both drive like the same car

Ecosport is just a big firsta

[wooden socket]

Is yours a ford

[stone pawn]

Yeah

[wooden socket]

Oh is it a ecoboom

[stone pawn]

Yup

[kind summit]

I go 50 on sharp turns

[stone pawn]

I love wet timing belts

[wooden socket]

Hopefully your wet belt doesn't explode

[stone pawn]

But hey its not my car anyways

Were gonna sell it as soon as its paid off

[wooden socket]

My dad purchased a 2017 transit with a wet belt for like £12K

[kind summit]

vcotd

[neon ferry]

The cozy of the day is persian indigo! (#32127a)

[stone pawn]

Its only got a bit under 50k rn

[stone pawn]

So its still got like another 50 in it

[wooden socket]

The transit my dad bought only has 64K on it

[kind summit]

mine is around 163k I believe, its a toyota so

v6

[stone pawn]

Still going?

I mean we do like 2k oil changes anyways

Maybe less

[kind summit]

somehow my beautiful lil FWD toyota is still running to this day

[stone pawn]

We just do them yearly

[wooden socket]

We still need to collect it yet

[stone pawn]

So the belt should be in pretty good nick

[kind summit]

oh guess that name was flagged

[wooden socket]

I think they said it's had a new belt done

[somber leaf]

Is it a Tacoma

[stone pawn]

Ain't no way fords 15k oil changes are realistic

Or whatever they set it to

[somber leaf]

They aren’t lol.

[kind summit]

I wish

[stone pawn]

That shit would be black

[wooden socket]

My car went 12K without an oil change once

[kind summit]

I would want a miata

[stiff urchin]

same

[kind summit]

those guys are little, but if I swap the engine for a v8 and add a few lil touches

the fun I would have

Id have to rig the audio speakers, and have a dub speaker in the back, bose would be good

[sudden sun]

@stiff urchin hiiii oomf

[kind summit]

that would be SO much fun

[stiff urchin]

hiiiii

[soft wadi]

new iphone 15 pro max or new ipad pro

[wooden socket]

In diesel cars the oil turns black instantly pretty much after you start the engine after changing it

[stone pawn]

So funny story, after out van got into a slight accident the guy I was working with said to check the oil too while we're talking about the van and all that. So I went over and checked and it was just straight black

[sudden sun]

hru

[stiff urchin]

im oki

wbu

[sudden sun]

what do u do your artworks with?

[stone pawn]

He was just like "but its within the minimum yeah?"

[wooden socket]

In my diesel car the oil went black within minutes being ran after having the oil changed

[somber leaf]

THE Miata or the new stuff? Cause you do NOT want a rotary engine

[keen junco]

Neither

[stone pawn]

They do not treat work transits well lol

They won't ever swap the oil

Just top it up

[sudden sun]

eepy

playing gta

[stone pawn]

Not ideal

[paper gate]

🐴

[kind summit]

if you have the body and a little bit of the systems, and give it a lil love, you make anything

[wooden socket]

My dad abused a nissan cabstar for a year

Now it's started having issues

[kind summit]

hella expensive though

[keen junco]

Honse

[stiff urchin]

meanwhile im trying to get a gmod server to work over a tailscale funnel...

[kind summit]

Might go gocarting by myself

[stiff urchin]

having an isp that doesn't allow port forwarding is pain

[somber leaf]

As in motor swap it with a k20a engine and make 1000hp till you bend the frame?

[stone pawn]

Like how much abuse are we talking

[wooden socket]

Being overloaded every day

[soft wadi]

ipad

[wooden socket]

And not having maintenance done

It's had over 10K miles done and the oil hasn't been changed

[sudden sun]

do u want to upgrade said ipad to work with features available to apple pencil pro

[stone pawn]

Because I accelerate just about as much as my car half the time but tbh with the shit I've seen I would even consider that abuse

[kind summit]

Im thinking it in my mind as a play car that has a few one time uses

a ticking timebomb

[wooden socket]

And a belt started making a sound

So thats probably not good

[soft wadi]

yes and i want the nano texture glass and i struggle to draw now cuz my ipad is so slow due to little storage

its only 128 gb

[stone pawn]

Yeah sub optimal

[kind summit]

if I die in a car like that going 160, At least ill die with adrenaline in my veins and a smile on my face from the music I play

[sudden sun]

hug

[stone pawn]

Also its not like that 140hp engine is going that fast anyways lol

[sudden sun]

i recommend ipad pro then

[wooden socket]

The MOT actually expired recently that's why he bought the transit

So the cabstar can have work done on it

[glossy swallow]

something which annoys me a LOT in windows is they have the OK and cancel order reversed from most other user interfaces

[kind summit]

these are very scary thoughts, yeah I might need to go gokarting one of these days

[glossy swallow]

where it is [cancel] [OK]

[stone pawn]

He self employed or something?

[wooden socket]

Ye

[stone pawn]

Ah

Makes sense

[somber leaf]

Because if you’re going to mistakenly click something or press enter it would rather be nothing than something

[wooden socket]

Anyways I might go sleep soon it's already nearly 00:30

[stone pawn]

I've heard that instead of actually servicing the transits the big contractors just sell the thrashed ones on for like 5k lol

[somber leaf]

Assuming everything is an accident at first is a good idea

[stone pawn]

Oh yeah Im flying back home at 9am

[stone pawn]

Anyways gn

[wooden socket]

I actually crashed my dad's old old transit into the c-max like 2 years ago when he hold me to move it

Left a dent in the bumper

[glossy swallow]

I mean windows does this when the OK and cancel button have positions reversed

idk how the order makes one easier to click by mistake

[wooden socket]

I had no driving experience and the steering was fucked on the transit

[stone pawn]

I have very slightly bumped the car while reversing in belfast

[glossy swallow]

i end up clicking the wrong one because i am used to linux and mac where it is generally the other way

[stone pawn]

Like 1mph

[kind summit]

I backed my car into a pole while playing Stressed out by twenty one pilots

[glossy swallow]

apart from in some apps windows does the other order lol

[stone pawn]

The curves in in some places in Belfast are literally a foot high for whatever reason

[wooden socket]

When I was parking the car once I hit a wall at 1mph

[kind summit]

I still laugh at the crap lmaooooo

[wooden socket]

No damage

[stone pawn]

I damaged mine when doing that

But it was the inside lol

[wooden socket]

I think I need new plates soon

[stone pawn]

My toolbox hit the inside of the boot slightly

[wooden socket]

The front ones cracked a bit and the rear one is fading

[stone pawn]

Yeah probably

[wooden socket]

But the damn dealership decided to use plastic screws

[stone pawn]

What the fuck

[wooden socket]

So they strip when you try to remove them

[stone pawn]

I HATE plastic screws

I occasionally work with them on isolators

[deep token]

@wooden socket wanna see insanity in beam

[stone pawn]

They're the worse thing to ever exist

[wooden socket]

My car has the same dash as a transit I think

[wooden socket]

Ok

[stone pawn]

Because the guy before you will have used a way too small screwdriver with way too much torque and stripped the fuck out of it

Or the screw is just too small for the application

And it strips anyways

I see no reason to use them

[deep token]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/831594106282180678/1324126860602511380/2025-01-01_22-20-18.mp4?ex=677af93c&is=6779a7bc&hm=92c936826d93043feee693486b5a75d4678e71b1f48d832ee0879869b227a7d0&

[wooden socket]

I think the transit has a similar dash to this

[stone pawn]

Its a ford, they're all the same cheap plastic inside

Same odometer that's for sure

Same as in my slightly big firsta

Actually maybe not mines a bit different

My temp guage is digital

[deep token]

ford is mid

[stone pawn]

I know

But like what am I gonna do about it

[somber leaf]

Our f-150 has over 15 recalls it’s pretty nice

[wooden socket]

My thermostat housing is leaking rn

That needs fixing

[deep token]

idk

[stone pawn]

At least I'm not driving a dacia sandero

[deep token]

our 2006 audi a6 only has two rn

[stone pawn]

Or a corsa

[deep token]

TRUE

[somber leaf]

My car has zero

[deep token]

emissions crap and airbags

[stone pawn]

Both are absolutely miserable

[deep token]

tbf the emissions crap is genuine bullshit

[wooden socket]

My car is a c-max

[deep token]

fuck the law

but airbags could kill me so

[wooden socket]

It's basically a bigger version of a ford focus

[stone pawn]

Fiesta but long and with van doors

Everything always boils down to a fiesta

[bold adder]

this is where our tax dollars are going

[wooden socket]

C-Max

Focus

Can you see it

[stone pawn]

Very much

Only nice thing about fords is the headlight design

[wooden socket]

They're a nightmare to change the bulbs in though

[stone pawn]

They look nice though

[wooden socket]

I put some Philips bulbs in my headlights

[stone pawn]

I've only had one burnt out bulb since we got the car

[wooden socket]

Since one of my bulbs went out so I thought I may as well replace them

[stone pawn]

Please don't tell me you're one of the people that put LEDs where there should be halogens or incandescents

[wooden socket]

They package the bulbs terribly so you purposely touch the bulb so it burns out faster

[wooden socket]

No I didn't put LEDs

[stone pawn]

I will personally come to your house and run you over if you do

[stone pawn]

OK cool

God I hate those people

[stone pawn]

LED headlights set as high as possible

[wooden socket]

Them

[jaunty ore]

could be worse

[stone pawn]

Most people probably don't even know you can adjust them

[jaunty ore]

we've been putting concrete bollards around christmas markets for years now and someone still managed to get around them this year

[wooden socket]

They always blind me when driving at night

And when people keep their high beams on

[stone pawn]

OK I just have stupid people not people that are out there trying to kill me

If you flash your high beams at the people here they understand

And most are fine anyways

[wooden socket]

One time at night I forgot to turn my headlights on

[stone pawn]

One time I forgot my high beams were on and I was the asshole

Never living that down

[wooden socket]

One time I turned my high beams on at someone who had theirs on

Show them how it feels

[stone pawn]

Are your lights not automatic?

[wooden socket]

No

Manual

[stone pawn]

Huh mine must be a bit newer

Or maybe its a paid feature idk

[wooden socket]

I usually just drive with them on all the time now

At least they'll be more likely to see you then

[stone pawn]

At least in Poland you have to have them on all day

[wooden socket]

But I suppose that'll burn out my bulbs out faster

[stone pawn]

Doesn't cost anything, but it helps in certain situations

[stone pawn]

Its like £20 a year

If they burn out that is

[wooden socket]

We paid for filter changes every year and they didn't change the engine filter for 4 years

I just change them myself now

[stone pawn]

Dealership?

[wooden socket]

Yeah we're not taking it back there anymore

Old one

New I put in

[stone pawn]

Our dealer promised heated mirrors

Had to fight them to get them installed

[wooden socket]

Old one dated 2020

[stone pawn]

Just had to keep pestering them about everything that was wrong with it

Because we had 1 year warranty

[wooden socket]

Our warranty expired this year

[stone pawn]

Yum

[wooden socket]

Because we went over the mileage for warranty

I think it's like 95K miles limit for warranty or 12 years age

And we hit 95k this year

[stone pawn]

Maybe I should like get an old beat up Toyota hilux as my first car

[wooden socket]

I mean last year

I keep forgetting it's 2025 now

[stone pawn]

Lol

[stone pawn]

Only downside I see is fuel cost and maybe road tax

[vivid junco]

Chat is this cursed or not

[wooden socket]

I get like 40mpg

[stone pawn]

I mean I drive petrol so its different but I get about 50ish mpg going 60

But I'm usually going 70

Eh I don't drive all that much for it to make a difference

[wooden socket]

I'm gonna be driving 200 miles in one day in may so that'll probably mainly be on motorways

[vivid junco]

I use a dirtbike so I can't really comment but it sucks fuel like there's no tomorrow

[wooden socket]

So mpg probably will go up

[stone pawn]

Its like a tenth of what I pay for insurance

Paid*

[wooden socket]

How much was your insurance

[stone pawn]

Idk consult the programming people

[stone pawn]

3.3k per year

[wooden socket]

Mine was originally meant to be like 2.5K a year

[stone pawn]

Not renewing this year

[wooden socket]

But I changed stuff and it went way down

[river thunder]

@main wyvern, <t:1735865188:R>: you lost the game

[stone pawn]

Even if mine was 1k I'm not paying

[stone pawn]

Fuck

[wooden socket]

Mine cost like £700 for my first year now

[stone pawn]

It would be more economical to get an uber everywhere than pay insurance

[stone pawn]

Nice

[wooden socket]

Business use

[stone pawn]

Idk if I should get sleep or not for tomorrow

Like I wanna be conscious going through the airport but I don't particularly want to be conscious on the Ryanair flight

[wooden socket]

My car insurance deposit was like £250

Young driver moment

[stone pawn]

Business use? Isn't that more expensive?

[wooden socket]

Not for me somehow idk why

[stone pawn]

Mine was like 400 and something

[wooden socket]

£57.86 a month

[stone pawn]

Also you can just drive like normal on business insurance

Crazy

[wooden socket]

Yes

It covers social, domestic and pleasure and commuting still

I thought I may as well since I do use it when I work with my dad sometimes

[stone pawn]

Yeah fair enough
