Re: Hoovie's house for sale

They run their neighbourhoods like fiefdoms and can enforce all kinds of rules about what you can do on your own land that don't seem very American :lol:. You also have to join if you want to live there.

You could run between all the rooms without using the doors, just dip a shoulder.
That's deliberate in the mid west iirc. Cheaper to rebuild a wood framed house after a tornado than to try and build a house strong enough to withstand them in the first place.

Re: The Sphere in Vegas (nd)

It's an ugly arena in a city that already has a bunch of them. It's not like it's a groundbreaking piece of architecture.

Re: Pie or no pie

What about pies with a bottom but no top? Custard pie, Pecan pie etc etc I fear the horse has already bolted with regard to keeping the pie definition pure There was a government petition in relation to this. The numbers are impressive. https://petition.parliament.uk/archived/petitions/46504 :lol: ...

Re: Prodrive P25

Yeah I think the C4 has gone profoundly out of fashion and back in again. They look brilliant. Also as discussed in that wheel thread, Buzzsaws are great wheels. Seeing them side by side the wheels on the Prodrive look hilariously out of proportion. I think I'd rather have an original. Having watch...

Re: Open University

I have been looking at more sustainable companies within my industry. There's a lot of interesting work happening in Spain and Portugal around sustainable garment manufacture but they're all small (most ecomm companies are much smaller than you expect) so there's not a lot of opportunity to get in.

Re: Open University

I'm currently a shipping manager for an ecomm company. I try and push sustainability as much as possible but ultimately I'm responsible for shipping out 1000s of parcels a week all over the world. Part of what's given me the push is seeing how lightweight a lot of what companies push as sustainabili...

Re: Open University

TL/DR what Swerve said. I'd definitely be aiming more towards the hypothetical charity than working for Nestle, that would be worse than where I am :lol: Where I'm at is that it feels hypocritical for me to go on about improving our environment while working in an industry that's quite damaging.

Re: Open University

Not tried them, but from experience studying while working full-time is hard. Doesn't help with the specific provider, more a general observation. I dunno, I did a PT masters and I didn't think it was that bad. Different story if you've got kids mind you! My main concern is my lack of focus tbh, I ...

No, I'm interested in environmental science and would like to do something more in line with my own views on the environment and sustainability but nothing specific.

Yeah, I’ve accepted that. My partner can’t work so losing my salary to go back to school would be too big a hit.

Open University

Anyone got a qualification through them?

I’ve decided to make an effort to get into more fulfilling work and I’m looking at a degree course in environmental science. Now that I’m at the point of paying I’m having doubts about the concept :lol:

Just curious if anyone had any experience?
