Moderators Zico Posted September 24, 2020 Moderators Share Posted September 24, 2020 downloaded and installed am just going to leave bluetooth on I hope that it tells you there location you were at when you came close to someone live down the road from a school, so parents park outside on the school run, often standing round for ages having a natter, probably about 5 metres or so from my office, maybe a bit more - anyway I don't want one of them fuckers triggerign me off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also remember to turn off the Bluetooth on your Fistmaster, whilst I've always loved the ability to track and monitor the duration and friction of each session, I've found that it's too intermittent and can in some cases conflict and corrupt the data flow with other Bluetooth items (such as the FistMaster-LoveEggs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I smashed the 5000m world record time last night without leaving the front room. Edited September 24, 2020 by peelyfeet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted September 24, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted September 24, 2020 I've got it. I think we all have a duty to get involved to be honest. You lose your argument about its effectiveness if you won't even give it a try. If it turns out to be shit, then have a pop. But eventually we have to give it a chance to prove its value. Anything that gets us out of this shitarse fucking lockdown is worth a go for me now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaydan Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Don’t need to turn Bluetooth off, you can turn Contract Tracing off in the app and then set it come back on after 4,8 or 12 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would switch it back on in my car. And it’s a swipe and a click to turn my Bluetooth on or off so much easier than home button to unlock phone into app to then turn on and off. anyway makes no difference to me as I ain’t turning it off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around 20% of the population. What percentage of phones that equates to, who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar age in Silver. Trouble is theyre all about £2k dearer than they were and there doesnt seem to be many about. Kind of given up hunting for now and wait till prices drop or summet just pops up.

Sent an enquiry to vauxhall as their new ones seemed to potentially fit the bill. Finally rang me yesterday after a few weeks, and he said 30k plus. Long lead time too as covid has reduced production, and a major company (might have been British gas) have just ordered a thousand! Might revisit in the new year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
