Re: Android 12 - Don't

No probs on my A52S. Garmin Connect sometimes a bit of a shit and requires a reboot, but no sure that can be levelled at the phone or OS.

Re: Weekend toy for £5k?

I just dunno what it is about Bini's, I just couldn't be seen in one. Although when I first saw a convertible do the shutting window trick in the mid 2000's I was stupidly impressed.

Re: Your fleet running reports

Changed them on the Auris the other day, weirdly no code or glow plug light, but cold starting had started to take a couple of attempts and a fair bit of smoke. 45 squid for bosch duraterm's. The cheapo dupes don't last ime.

Re: Your fleet running reports

Big machine polishing day on the Auris. Been a bit embarrassed to show anything of the car as the paint was shocking. Swirly-to-F, completely oxidised on one side (predominantly parked facing the sun on that side for years?). Don't think it's ever been polished or waxed. First experience of a DA, go...

Re: Drugs

WD, Bean! Very much jealous. All the jobs I get put forward for are Leeds-way, bit of a commute unfortunately. I got asked to do someone else's job, by a subordinate, at 16:33 today :lol: Jog on, pal.

Re: PC graphics question/ramble

100 deg c? That's pretty high, as in too high. Doesn't matter now. As for your question check it yourself, task/resource manager shows you GPU usage so you can compare results in the two configurations. I have an RDP server for my users with a workstation GPU, that does get 'sliced' for users sessio...

Re: Running

Couple of local 10k's booked for June so would like to PB there. Will look for a flat HM for later in the year. Might try a swimrun too.

Critical Drinker (aka Nebpor) - who I don't always agree with - has quite a wise take on it.

Bad luck, a Renault being a Renault unfort. I'd lend a hand if it wasn't for the 300 mile trip :lol:

Re: Cheltenham

400 quid is an amazing result, WD! I'm not canny enough and happy to admit it. I used to do well with cycling live betting as their guys obviously had no idea, but they've closed that down in the last cpl of years. On to the National!

Re: Drugs

Why not c25k? It really works, have witnessed it for loads of people. Amazing for core strength. I broke L3 at 18yo but have learnt what works and what doesn't. Pain, meh! Black belt guy who works with me slightly sliced his finger this week and nearly passed out! Bit of man-up juice rqrd.

Re: Cheltenham

I had a terrible week despite taking all the stupidly generous offers from the bookies. I'm up, of course, but only by 25 squid or so. I do have another 25 in credits left for everyone to have a punt on the national. Anyway it's a good reminder not to bet on the bobbo's.

Re: Drugs

Need to get it sorted dude, with exercise, strengthening and stuff. Once the immediate issue subsides. I realised long ago that the drugs don't work, they just make you worse.

A 5 incher is about the right size, that's what she said. I kind of regret my A40 dying.

Check the bios whether you can disable the keyboard or just the hot keys.

Re: Elden Ring

Dark Souls vet, been playing Elden Ring since launch day but lacking time really to put many hours in (I think 15 total or something). It's very good but I haven't quite clicked with it yet.
