@MightyMunch42 @memes_eV Stellantis products have no frunk, as they are all designed as petrol/diesel vehicles but then have an electric drivetrain shoehorned in where the combustion parts would have been.

eV Memes Fossil Fires⚡️🚗🤭
Weird one. Definitely not a battery fire-looks more like something in it caught fire at the rear. Car was not on charge.

Why do people buy those cordless stick hoovers? My experience is they always get blocked and the battery lasts 20 minutes if you're lucky..

@pirate1100 @DVSAEnforcement 3.5t chassis cab with a 7.5t body shoved on it. Illegal and unsafe even with nothing in it. Such things should be seized and destroyed.

🚨DVSA Check at in Wiltshire stopped a vehicle overloaded by 1950 kgs, a whopping 55% over 3,500 kg limit! ❗Court deposit & prohibition notice issued. 😮The vehicle was re-weighed minus the load, it was still overloaded - time for recovery! #permittedweights

@tomhfh Lids aside, that's the product with a name that's dangerously close to Hurl. Also looks like something that has already been digested.

@MonkEmma @eV_Newt Even if a HP dryer does take a bit longer - so what? Do people stand next to their dryer tapping their foot and checking their watch waiting for it to finish? Probably the same lot who believe people stand next to their car waiting for it to charge.

None of what you wrote there is true🤷🏼‍♀️ They don’t take twice as long. They dry clothes much more efficiently. And yes, the energy costs of a exactly comparable loads have of course been calculated 🙄 Did you really think no one had thought about that??
Little Billy B 🐾🌈❤️@Wittal_Bubster2

@MonkEmma @clim8resistance Cutting the cost? Given heat pump dryers take at least twice as long to dry washing, and do it nowhere near as effectively as condenser dryers, has the cost of having a condenser dryer on for 90 mins vs a heat pump dryer on for 3 hours minimum been officially worked out?

@OCDaboutCars 4 new tyres - and date code on the one visible is 4118, possibly 4113. Best case that's the end of 2018, worst 2013. Either way, clearly years old and overdue for replacement.

@AutoInfatuation If it's a public location then anyone can take photos of anything that can be seen from that location. Permission of car owners, or owners of any other objects, buildings or anything else is not required.

Ok I’ll put it out there to everyone, what’s your take on this? Genuinely interested to hear everyone’s thoughts 🙄
M8Media@m8mediaphone

@AutoInfatuation Serious question. Did you have car owners permission to post photo? I would be bloody furious if it was me, I don’t want people / customers / some family to ‘read’ where I am or have frequented. You could cause some poor chap grief without meaning to. 👀 Coldplay cam incident!

@ronin21btc Merge in turn or zipper merge or whatever you want to call it is all very well in theory. In reality it's just people swerving between lanes because one might appear to move slightly faster or just ramming in wherever and whenever they want with no regard for anyone else.

@modernheroestv Don't see the point of that, or the ones made with green stripes. Plates identify vehicles. The fuel type is unrelated.

Smoke alarms are essential. But they're also a gigantic pain when the battery runs out at 3:23am and you have to bumble along to the other end of the house to find a step-ladder to reach the beeping monstrosity, or have your ear drums assaulted every 30s all night long. Yawn.

@aGillJambo @renewablesmiffy Locating HV cables underground involves the same construction disruption as building a 6 lane motorway. What will that do to your prime farming land?

Nothing about this makes any sense at all. The whole house needed rewiring - after a meter was changed ? The whole house needed rewiring - because the lights were not working ? The supplier offered to pay for a new consumer unit and hotel stay - but this was declined ?

An 85-year-old woman says her life has been “turned upside down” after a fault she claims was caused during the installation of a smart meter left her home needing a full rewire. i.stv.tv/4sGnxGA

Can someone please explain, in very simply language, how chopping down trees in Canada, turning them into pellets, shipping them to Liverpool, then transporting them by train to Drax Power Station is environmentally friendly?????

The real reason. They will just stop trying to deliver items, and shove everything in a parcel locker so people can collect it at their own inconvenience. Later, when their delivery stats show loads of people collecting from parcel lockers, delivery to individual addresses will be discontinued.
