Re: Bye Bye Burnham

I think it’s a good thing to be less London centric but I’m not sure Burnham has explained it very well. The working brawn of the government comes from its civil servants and they’re pretty well spread out across the country. Would splitting 10 Downing Street actually streamline things or just ...

Re: Your fleet running reports



The ugly US impact bumpers stopped being legislated in the 80’s. BMWs just like to be thicc.


Did they? Thought it was why we were still seeing stuff like this:
Clicky


Might just be Alfa doing a shoddy job of turning an EU sized plate recess into a US one. Teslas have a pretty flat rear ...

Leclerc/Hamilton was the same, Hamilton got pushed clean off by his own teammate…

Also contrary to the whole internet I thought the Ferrari strategy wasn’t bad, the car just had no pace. If anything it’s Red Bull that pitted Max too late and lost the win because of it as he was the fastest car on ...

Re: Elon Musk/Tesla

I was reading the opposite from JP Morgan a few days ago which was hilarious. “It’s different this time” basically. Which is what they say every time.

Bailie Gifford is balls deep in SpaceX, they seem to run most of the Scottish pensions and mortgages so if anyone is exposed to that they may want ...

They call it intellectual disability now. There’s this point where you stop questioning it and accept that it is all they can process.

Doing some tidying up in the greenhouse - everything in the south facing window side has been burnt to a crisp. Noticed the sewer pipe I use has been charred as has the wooden frame that supports it :shock:

Re: No F1 thread?

It’s a piss take. Also made even more fishy by the fact that there were actual double yellows waved but it seems like the digital system only showed single yellows. Antonelli seemed adamant it was double yellows till Toto shut him up.
Perhaps it’s just the FIA not wanting him to run away with the ...

Re: The Weather Thread.

It’s just environmental handwringing in case a bit of gas escapes but it’s fine with new cars having totally exposed condensers that get a hole in them every few thousand miles and then going to a backstreet garage to keep regassing them every 6 months…

Anyway I just looked again and it appears ...

Waited until this evening to go in the workshop to do my various tasks, 34 degrees, but midday it was at 47.
It’s annoying they don’t sell those third world/US style AC window units here and the portable ones that put out decent BTUs cost more than a proper split system. The pre charged split ...

Re: The Weather Thread.

The responsible thing to do is to store those logs for eternity so the carbon remains locked up. Otherwise you’ll join that list with Pol Pot and Elon for killing people.
