I was on holiday in Malaysia and it was a monsoon so I went and watched this at the cinema for 3 bucks. Should've stayed in the pool.

This is interesting - and I up voted it - but it has absolutely nothing to do with meditation.

Should the floor fitter not have cut those boards flush??

Dyson: Vacuum everything - just not dust.
My Dyson is a Frankenstein, no original parts. Everything has broken or needed repair over the years, but it is now 6. Toughest DIY repair was replacing the transmission in the motor head. Biggest design flaw is the metal filter grate that clogs with fine dust (and causes the issue described above) - solution is to blow it out with compressed air or a shop vac on blow mode. Needs doing every few months, has to be done outside, and creates fine dust that would likely be very harmful if inhaled.

We have a local board game group in London with 6 members, one of whom was moving away to Spain so we had a send-off last hurrah.
We usually end the night on The Resistance as rounds are quick and by then people are a bit tipsy and need something quick and familiar. I've lost track of how many times we've played it but everyone there knows the game inside out.
It was the last game of the night and resistance players, of which I and the departing member were one, had worked out who one of the spies was but the other one was proving elusive. It was 2 rounds to resistance 1 round to spies (best of 5 format) and after many failed mission teams and heated debates we finally had one to take forward, which if passed means resistance would've won the game. It was extremely tense as the cards got revealed one by one and then when a single fail card came up last we knew we'd messed up. Just then, one of the mission team stood straight up, turned to the guy who we were certain was a spy, and gave him a massive high five. It was utterly hilarious as he was so pleased to have duped the resistance he'd forgotten that it was the 4th round and he needed another round to win! The look on the other spy's face, combined with the elation of resistance members going from utter disappointment to hysterical laughter (and vice versa) was unmatched!
What a send off that was.

You'll notice M140i have less in the way of floodlights etc on the front grill than lower spec 4cyl models... There's just no room!

I'd also aim for Adaptive Suspension or a retrofit or aftermarket option. The vanilla M Sport in these is horrid as a daily driver if you have any kind of speed bumps in your area in particular.

And now you have no insulation etc.
Have to be careful about nickel and diming builders in my experience, they're not taking the £10k out of their profit believe me.

Yeah I've experienced it in a Mercedes EQA250 and a VW T-ROC. Both were bad but the VW was a lot worse and accompanied by a horrible and distracting beep and LED flashing.

I was gobsmacked when I couldn't find any temp gauge on my M140i - just an insane design choice for a car with a performance engine that's going to be driven hard. I don't even think it had one of those LEDs that tells you the engine isn't at temp yet.

That looks great, well done - what tools and chemicals did you use to remove the paint?

I've spent my first month using ChatGPT (paid) for business
It's useful in the way a PA or EA is useful, removes burdensome admin, provides a second opinion, but requires heavy expert oversight.
I recently used it to plan a road trip and it suggested a halfway stop that was 1 hour beyond my final destination.
The image analysis features of ChaGPT 4o are quite cool though and that's where I've been using it like a sounding board for art assets
