Weather today is a touch brighter! Good for doing some proper work and loading it up with firewood (none of the other test drives show it actually doing anything other than driving along streets). #KGM #Musso #EV

A yellow pickup truck is parked on a grassy area surrounded by autumn trees. In the background, there are stacked firewood piles and a large water container. The sky is clear and blue, indicating a sunny day.

A couple early snapshots of the extended test drive we are doing in the #KGM #Musso #EV #pickup in some actual rougher terrain and where it will later be hauling some load. Unlike all the other test drives online. Anything you’d like us to still try and cover or answer? #cars

A yellow off-road vehicle parked on a gravel path in a forest. The surroundings feature tall trees and scattered autumn leaves on the ground. The scene is illuminated by the vehicle's lights, creating a cozy atmosphere in the dusk.

Damn. Posted, tongue in cheek, about my #iaido seppuku ceremony practice from yesterday to #Facebook. Now I got this :P Now I’m wondering if I can get feedback on my technique if I click ‘Get support’?

Some folks in Finland are protesting the high #car fuel prices by … organising a ‘do not fuel day’. Sounds a bit like smokers protesting tobacco warnings by having a non-smoking day. Or Russia protesting sanctions by deciding to quit attacking Ukraine. My […] [Original post on attractive.space]

This was such a crazy find for 20€ that we bought Maripilvi a pair. They still have a couple of small sizes left, so act quick if your shoe size is 37 or 38 euro.

Found the second best #fishNchips in Finland. #JohnScotts pub in Helsinki has all the proper condiments, decent fish and even the fries were quite chip-like, with a better price than Belge (especially their lunch price!). Nice environment too. Oh and they do #RCCola for fans of that.

A dining table featuring a plate of fish and chips, with crispy battered fish, golden fries, and garnished with sprouts. Accompanying sauces, including a green dip and a creamy one, are on the side.

One of the nice features of #Jolla's #Sailfish is how they've done context menus. Hold on an item and a menu appears, but you don't need to lift your finger to aim at the menu. Just hold and slide up and down to select the item from the menu. See example below. #UX
