Start with the tyre manufacturer recommendations then adjust to your riding style, weight and weather conditions. Cooler temperature would mean higher pressure. Your weight should also be taken in consideration. Heavier rider should have a couple extra pounds pressure. Sporty riding would mean lower pressure, this because faster riding will heat up the tyres more increasing the pressure. So you don't need setting out on higher pressure as you would need for more moderate riding style. Rain or wet conditions would mean dropping a couple psi to increase the contact surface. Important is to check it before every ride. Daily if you're touring

I wonder if you can get good android app that could run on a tablet for image/video editing. Most are fairly cheap and Android is always less demanding on hardware.

Be weary of external drives. I would strongly advise spending the money in cloud storage instead. I lost around 3000 photos because my WD drive decided to stop working. Cloud services will end up being around the same price as external drive and easier to recover if something goes pear shape

I think you need to visit PC specialists website to give you an idea of what spec you want. You can personalize everything from graphic card, memory, processor, etc. As you change the specs it will automatically adjust the price. Then you will get a better understanding of what you will need and go to laptops direct for a deal. I agree with @Bender better spec = longer life span. My old laptop wasn't cheap but lasted 14 years

As @Stu wisely say. Higher mileage will mean more compression escaping from piston beads into the air box or the crankcase. If it's just a little then I would ignore it while keeping an eye on oil level. For the look of the oil it had a service recently and it could be just some of the old oil draining. Long term solution, and I wouldn't recommend unless really necessary, is to check compression on pistons, eventually change the compression rings. My shadow was dripping oil from the clutch cover for a very long time without making a difference on oil level. Keep in mind that you will need a lot of oil drops for the oil to go down 1mm

Brand, model, year. When was last service? How old is the air filter?

You take it in for one thing and they find something else. Typical!

Comparing carbs with for example adjusting the valves. I would say carbs are far easier. Everything is pretty much either a clean or replacement in a carb. Unless you want to change the amount of petrol going in everything is very straightforward. Obviously gets a wee bit complicated with twin or triple carbs because of the syncing. I would rather do the carbs than changing the chain set -
Although Yamaha is well know for its leaking issues I'm with @RideWithStyles. Sounds like the job wasn't done properly. Remains to see if by doing it wrongly they didn't bent the cover and it won't seat properly anymore. I would use a smear of gasket paste together with the normal gasket for added sealing

I didn't bought it because would take me days of eating anything else It's the size and dead cheap prices that still surprise me. Mostly I use avocado for hair treatment

Then you have countries like Indonesia where insurance is optional. Same as highway code traffic lights parking helmets Headlights Rear lights....

I don't understand how I never had to pay any fees for cancelling the insurance due to selling the bike or car. True I never got a good deal in multi vehicle insurance so I never had to do it. But every time I have cancelled a policy I only had to call them. Say the vehicle was sold and even got refunds for the remaining time in the policy that I didn't use. Are you guys sure you're doing it the right way?

Life is good. I believe I've lost a couple kgs, no idea where i left them. Other than swearing them off Starting to look for something to do and get some income. Fortunately the second flat is about to be rented meaning a nice wee passive income. Still wondering if this is the final destination or will be moving again further east. Vietnam is still looking very attractive.
