Re: EV Thread

Yeah the exterior actually looks pretty good for a new BMW. The steering wheel is awful looking though. And I'm not sure why they are replacing the dashboard with that dash bar thing (not sure if it has a name). Is any information other side of the car for a passenger?

Re: Can I get a TV that's just a TV?

I bought an Apple TV over the weekend based on a couple of these comments and as my Android based Sony TV was becoming so slow loading apps. It's a massive improvement in terms of performance, wish I'd bought one earlier now.

Re: Forza Horizon 6

I saw a video in my recommendation last night where Playground Games were talking through some of the new stuff. Looks like it's returning to the wrist bands approach from the earlier games, which control what cars you can race etc. So probably a bit more progression based than some of the recent ...

Re: Gaming 2023

Good shout, will take a look at buying codes. I do wonder if they'll end up increasing in price as well (might be ok for the time being). I don't really make the most of the "perks" of Ultimate, so I was pretty set on just going down to the lowest version which lets me just play online still.

Re: Gaming 2023

I've barely played my Xbox this year either. Fired it up to play the new Battlefield game for the past week or so. Been enjoying that.

Also, Xbox are increasing their Ultimate pass from £14.99 to £22.99 which a bit of a kick in the teeth. They've been increasing the price here and there, which has ...

Re: Being a plonker

I got a new card in September and my Apple Pay worked during the cross over. I also didn't have to update any details in the Apple Wallet. The only change I had to make was my autofill card details. I had to amend the new end date and 3 digit code.

Re: New Testarossa

Is it basically a rebodied SF90? So keeping the same V8 and hybrid tech from that car (but assume "improved").

I don't like the styling either. The black bar on the bonnet has ruined the look on this and the dodici cilindri. But as others have said, doesn't mean much as I'll not own one, or ...

Was quite alarmed by the calliper on the Honda! Not sure how you only have one bolt holding it in place. Forgot to put it back or sheered ...

Re: YouTube adverts

I've had YouTube premium for a while now and I've found it really worthwhile. When they really cracked down on ad-blockers, I just tried the free trial and got hooked in. I'm assuming it's a premium feature, but it will let you jump ahead of an in video sponsors which is quite handy.

I also sacked ...

Re: Hulk Hogan

I can't comment on him as a person, as haven't followed what he's done in the years since I watched wrestling as a kid in the late 90s, but the Hulk character was very much part of my childhood. Watching WWF & WCW with my brother, you couldn't really escape him at the time.

Re: Autotrader

I find the whole pop out filter & sort system really annoying as well. I used to like when it was a side panel. It does feel like they make changes just for the sake of making the website different.

I kind of like it as well. It looks better in the grey to me. Some of the purple pics make the ducktail look a bit too big. Seems to blend in more in the grey.

Re: Trump

I saw on Reddit a link to Financial Times article which says that it it's based on the trade deficit. One of the examples was Bangladesh - US imports $8.4bn and Bangladesh imports $6.2bn. 6.2 divided by 8.4 = 0.738. Therefore tariff = 74%. There was also some suggestion that it's what you get when ...
