Was my car insurance unfairly cancelled and what can I do?

dubl_x
commented

I had a blackbox. Got cancelled for going 70 in a unsignposted temp 50 (motorway roadworks that had finished but still lane closed)

I called and asked if i cancel during their “notice of cancelation period” does it count as being cancelled, they said no, so i cancelled a few days before the notice ended and havent had to declare it since there. Then i went and got non-blackbox policy and enjoyed my car.

Why did Renault fit all of its 90’s cars with green tail lights, then remove them all in the early 2000’s?

The true story is my girlfriend wears green shirts, which i seen as a murky sorta brown. It eventually came up and i mentioned her “brown” shirt, and she was confused. I just thought she liked brown.

OP, you probably have deuteranopia or protanopia. Its red-green colourblindness. r/colorblind

What is the routine for deleting a movie from Plex?

Okay thanks.

So i delete the item in plex, then does overseerr remove it from radarr once it sees the media is missing on that job run?

Sorry for reviving a dead thread, but is this still the way to go?

Or can i set somewhere in overseerr that deleting there will remove from plex library and son/rad arr?

The r9 will be closer to the r6 (in performance, not characteristic) than the r1.

Id be suprised if they didnt revive the R1 name in a few years with a hybrid powertrain of some sort like kawi is rumoured to want to so with the hybrid 700 they have.

Ninja 650 is closer to the zx6r than the ninja 400. But yeah i agree theyre not even close.

i think a ninja650 would terrify a beginner anyway.

Is there a "dumb TV" for old people?

dubl_x
commented

If the main issue here is just switching inputs, buy a HDMI switch with its own remote so they don’t get overwhelmed with the tv system itself.

Segmenting the problem to another remote and being able to say “button 1 is for cable, button 2 is for satellite” will help.

I have a 2016 mbp i7 with the 4gb nvidia graphics. I’ve never been able to get clamshell to work properly or consistently, but always put it down to having a wireless keyboard and mouse, didnt realise it was an nvidia thing.

Got any more info for the clamshell mode issues so i can google for more?

How can I make my new car last longer than myself?

Is the dpf anything to do with oil though? Do diesel particulates increase if its not new oil?

Its a particulate filter for the exhaust, to take care of it you just have to have the engine in high revs for a bit to burn out the crap, which stops it getting clogged.

I’ve seen people say 10 mins at motorway speeds a gear or two lower than normal does the trick. Some auto box cars do this automatically when it detects its getting clogged.

What the hell are companies doing? What's changed?

I heard about fake job ads so that they can say “they’re expanding by 50 people” to drum up investors
