Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

Reversing cameras have made it too easy. Nailing it without a reversing camera makes you feel extra awesome 😆

We've got a 360 camera on the car we bought a few months ago. It's still an achievement for me to reverse into a park even with that!

The trick is to get good without it first. Then having a camera makes it feel like cheating.

Though I don't think a 360 view is as helpful as you'd expect. The view directly back is more helpful I think, in combination with using your wing mirrors and looking out the back window.
