Re: Drunk Purchases

Must admit, I've used booze to Put My Big Boy Pants On and make big purchases, but those were purchases that I'd already decided to make and was just fear't of pulling the trigger on them. I don't think I've ever accidentally drunk-purchased anything in my life. Clearly I'm missing out on the surpr...

And breathe

"...5 door".

Never mind who's buying these things, who's naming them?

Re: It’s time for another forum cycle/vehicle disagreement

The driver should be in fucking jail, frankly. That was absurdly dangerous and it's only dumb luck that the rider didn't end up under the car and minced.

Oh, they're not environmentalist hippies, they're anti-progress NIMBYs more than likely - the sort who protest fibre broadband being run on new poles, or 5g masts being installed.

Re: Tesla Cyberpuke

I mean, based on some of the shit they post (wow, my cybertruck is shit and suffered brake and steering failure but i still love it! etc) it's actually quite believable that they might have thought they were making a statement.

Re: Jack envy

My dad was an engineer for knocking on 50 years. He used all sorts of high end pro stuff for work that I can't remember the name of. He had Facom gear in the car and on the boat. So "Good enough for a journeyman pro to use at home" seems like a reasonable recommendation for their mainline ...

Re: Jack envy

Think it'll be a quick lift pedal - press it down and it lifts the arm faster, but with almost no pressure behind it, so it'll stop when it hits the bodywork.

Yeah, it's 'in the phone book' sort of data, but as you note, it's something that reasonably should have happened, period.

Re: Your fleet running reports

Got your eyes set on anything in particular, or are you waiting for the gods of eBay and Half Decent Wine to get together and make you regret your life choices? This is also quite possible 😂 A newer Cayenne or a Merc GL are on the reserve list. There’s a box of Co-op Pinot Grigio in the fridge. Che...

Mind-boggling.

Other than the obvious potential for spam, what use are a bunch of names and addresses to scammers these days?
Mix it in with details from other large breaches, you could potentially have the grounds of a highly effective spear phishing campaign.

Re: People (Office)

We're also entirely remote workers, and we were doing four meetings a year in a hotel but the logistics got ungainly when we got past 20 people, including a few who need to fly in (NI, Azores (!)). Now we do two meetings a year and we're doing smaller, team or intra team meetings in the interim for ...

Re: Your fleet running reports

Bentley provisionally sold, to be collected some time next week. The Cayenne needs a scrub up & a new MOT, then that can go up for sale too. I'm behaving myself at the moment and waiting until both are gone before I buy anything new. Got your eyes set on anything in particular, or are you waiti...
