Many reviews from the past years P4 have not been fond of the software, citing lag, bugs, simple spelling mistakes and slow booting, slow activation of cruise control and so on.

But all those seem to be over a year old, which has me wondering if it’s gotten better, or if it’s the same.

I currently drive an ID.3 1st, which is horrendous when it comes to software, so I really don’t want to buy a car with issues even close to that.

How is it now?

As some of us might do, I’ve overcompensated with my grinder, and have found myself with a 3hp 2x72” belt grinder. Issue is, my shed is tiny. I have a 160cm wide workbench where I need to do everything. This big ass grinder is either in the way, or so far in the corner I can’t work.

So, those of you in a similar position, how do you do the whole belt grinder thing? I want it stable, and thus bolted to the table, but I would prefer moving it away when not in use.

I am considering a pedestal of some sort, but space is still an issue

Jeg drømmer lidt om at kunne sætte mig en gang imellem og spille et spil, nok næppe de nyeste, men helst uden for meget begrænsning i hvad jeg kan spille (pt er drømmen hhv den nye assassins creed black flag, samt red Dead redemption 2). Dog er tiden sjældent til det, hvorfor jeg ikke vil bruge pengene på en af de dyre konsoller eller en dyr gamer pc.

Er der en billig computer, konsol ting, eller andet, som kan hamle op med som minimum de to nævnte titler? Ikke nødvendigvis høj kvalitet, bare uden at brænde sammen

I’ve always worked in Solidworks (but started out in fusion 360 back in the days), until now at my new job where it’s inventor instead. And I’m surprised at how much I’m struggling. It’s very obviously similar in function, but it’s like learning to write on another keyboard layout. I know exactly what I want to do, and I know the process (more or less, there are differences of course), but actually doing it is hard.

I’ve now spent over an hour on a single sketch that’d have taken me 5 minutes tops in Solidworks.

So, does anyone have any tips, YouTube videos or guides specifically aimed at people transitioning?

I recently graduated and started my first job, and I feel so unprepared. Everything I know is theoretical, where an assignment is given with everything needed to solve it. I know why and how stuff works, but actually applying it to a real job isn’t part of that knowledge. Going out and finding the problem that needs solving, or even just setting up a FEM study isn’t something I’ve learned.

I got good grades all throughout my time in university, so I know that I know the stuff.

Is this a me problem, or does fresh graduates just not know and understand what being an engineer really is?

What is the best and fastest way to learn to become useful in your opinion?

I have so many apples that I don’t know what to do, apart from making cider and juice. I have fermentation vessels free for 64 liters total, and want at least one of those to be a very clear white wine like cider, dry with an abv preferably around or over 10%, like one I once tried somewhere.

But most guides I find are for darker more traditional ciders, which I’ll make in the other bucket.

I have not made cider before, so I don’t know what and why the clear cider was as it was. Yeast? Apple type or something else?

I just received my first boots from Jim Green ever, model 719, in size 11,5. I decided to size up half a size to allow for toe room.

But, I’m unsure if they actually fit me. I can feel the sides of the shoes just about touching my toes, as well as maybe being able to touch the tip with my big toe.

If I move my feet all the way to the tip, I can comfortably stick in a finger between my heel and the boot heel, but nothing more.

I know leather will shape to my feet somewhat, but with the amount of leather in these, I want to start with the best possible option.

Should I keep, size up, or return for a larger model (custom made maybe)?

This summer has been absolutely horrendous. One day it’s 35 degrees and sunny, and the next it’s 15 and raining. It’s my first year of growing chilies, and have been struggling. The plants don’t look all that healthy, and there’s only two single fruits on one of the plants.

With the amount of rain, cloud, temperature fluctuations and so on, is it really possible to grow good chili plants? Anything I should be doing differently from normal?

For now they’ve been outside since about start may, getting ~14 hours of sunlight a day (when the sun is out), but also a lot of rain.

Is it better to put them under cover, reducing the sunlight but also the amount of water they get?

Is the only real solution in the end a greenhouse?

I just placed an order for an X2D with AMS, but afterwards saw an H2S for sale for just about the same price, but used. For what I can see, it’s a larger printer, higher nozzle temp, but losing the dual nozzle. And since that’s the opposite from what I need, I don’t see any reason to cancel and go that way instead, but maybe someone here knows of a reason to consider the H2S?

I’ve always worked in Solidworks throughout uni and work. I’m switching job, and the new place uses Inventor instead, which I’ve never even opened.

I know that the basics of CAD should be the same, but how alike are they? Should I even worry?

New job knows I don’t have experience in it, so that’s not an issue

Jeg har længe gået og drømt om en kanotur med min hund, bare en dag eller en weekend med overnatning et eller andet sted.

Jeg har selv sejlet en smule i kano igennem tiden, men er lidt rusten, og hunden har aldrig siddet i en. Derfor søger jeg lidt tips.

For det første, nogen der har haft hund med i en kano? Hvordan lærte I den at komme i kanoen og sidde stille?

Hvor, helst i det vestjyske, er en god rute uden for meget strøm? Jeg har kun padlet rundt i storeåen og en lille rolig å et eller andet sted jeg ikke husker navnet på.

Hvad gør jeg ifht leje af kano? Jeg hørte engang spejdergrupper kan finde på at leje ud, og jeg tænker det kunne være en god støtte til en af de lokale grupper her, men transport til/fra åen kan jeg ikke selv sådan umiddelbart gøre

Udstyr ud over redningsveste og kano+åre som giver mening at have med? Altså ud over det jeg ville have på en almindelig vandretur med hunden.

For the first time in my life I find myself needing to replace the bearings of my front wheel on my bike.

Since I rarely do it, I don’t want to spend all that much on tools.

Does anyone know of a good way to do it, maybe using regular hardware (nuts and bolts etc).

I’d prefer not going to a bike mechanic, as there’s none close to where I live (tho rather a drive than wrecking the wheel by being stupid)

I’m looking to buy a pair of Numzaan, but they’re somewhat hard to get in Europe at the moment through the website.

I’d hoped to find them in buffalo leather, but that’s not even an option on their site.

Any hints?

My feet are weirdly rectangular, which isn’t what most shoes are made for. This has caused issues in finding shoes that works, which is especially annoying for hiking.

My feet aren’t wide in the common way (measured a C width on Brannock device), but most shoes are too narrow in the midfoot, even the wide models.

I’ve bought a pair of Altra lone peaks, hoping the anatomical shaping would mean more midfoot room, but no.

It’s the edges of the shoe base that rounds up to meet the upper, which I always ends up standing on with the bone leading to the pinky.

What shoes should I consider? I’ve gone through more or less everything at the two local shoe shops (one hiking, one running)

I apologize in advance for a possibly stupid question.

I have bought my first dslr, a Nikon D5100 with a 300mm lens. I really enjoy it, but as my purpose of buying was animal photography, I often find myself lacking in reach.

I sometimes see pictures of cameras with what looks like multiple lenses mounted together. I doubt that’s the case, and that it instead is an extender of sorts.

Is that a thing? Will it “just” work?
