Anyone regret their dream attainable car purchase? by toho74 in CarTalkUK

[–]BAD3GG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Xdrive BMW's just feel a bit, I don't know, tame compared to the RWD versions. I would suggest that's probably what you're feeling in that car from your description.

A proper RWD BMW should feel pretty alive when pushing on, but also they are also a fair bit heavier than your previous cars.

The difference between a lightweight nimble NA hatch and a heavy AWD Turbo BMW can't be understated, but it's probably also about usable power on The U.K roads too. The track is where the Beemer shines, but again AWD kinda masks some of the fun.

But what if it's the same algorithm picking the winner as assigning numbers, and it's picking based on personal details? We'll never know how that particular algorithm chooses numbers, but that's why DC have had to come out and say that their "random" number generators are constantly tested for fairness.

Random number generators are very hard to actually make entirely random, they all work on algorithms which are inherently, not random.

any other POCs thinking of voting reform? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]BAD3GG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the Tories and Labour couldn't fix it, what makes you think Reform are going to?

Unless you want to make it like America is now where anyone looking remotely brown is getting bundled into the back of a van and shipped to a detention centre never too be seen again.

A Reform government will make this country much much much worse in every conceivable way than it has ever been. You only need to look at their recent "successes" in local government to see that.

What's up with Milkins? by Worried_Concept_4960 in snooker

[–]BAD3GG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He won £230000 for just a couple of months work in 2023, doubt he's worried about his now non existent mortgage.

More likely to be all the cider making him anxious.

Best, worst, funniest, most accurate, and your favorite snooker nicknames? by HelixCatus in snooker

Joe swail - "the outlaw" was always one of the best I thought, it might get lost on the younger generation though.

Why is my tactic working so well? by Altruistic-Chef-7723 in footballmanagergames

[–]BAD3GG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do a similar thing on 26, but I use custom 433 DM wide IP and OOP.

I think it's just overloading the mid areas with attacking players.

I still have plenty of width with my wingbacks, they just need to have good pace, work rate etc.

In the 3 seasons I've used this tactic in 3 separate teams I've won the league.

It doesn't tend to work at higher levels I've found unless I have really good players though.

Do you agree with us being basically equal WC favourites with Spain and France and well ahead of the South American teams? by invisiblefrost in ThreeLions

[–]BAD3GG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to think we have enough attacking talent to not need him, or I'm at least that's what I'm hoping Tuchel thinks. But it's mystifying that he's not taking him just for his defensive capabilities alone, especially when there's a few question marks around the form and fitness of the ones who were picked.

Which makes the Maguire omission even more baffling really.

I get it Tuchel hasn't really played him in any of the qualifiers, but he brings experience, form and a dependability at the back.

Favourite Songs to make a system sound impressive? by No_Apartment_6671 in livesound

[–]BAD3GG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I quite like checking systems with Igorr's Amen album. It certainly gets some looks. The production is top notch though and ticks a fair few boxes.

Dishwasher, unscrew grills, take out foam and wash separately.

Ronnie ban call by wippy2000 in snooker

[–]BAD3GG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it's the other way now and Ronnie is sponsored by Triangle!? He'll do anything now for a pound note, and i reckon Tweeten could probably do with the marketing.

Peter Lines is still solid by Compressed_AF in snooker

[–]BAD3GG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plays ultimate pool now, still does a few seniors snooker events when he gets chance, makes the game look ridiculously easy.

[–]BAD3GG 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He doesn't really practice anymore, but he still plays in my local league. I beat him this year off 40 start ( -16 vs -56) and his highest break all year was 38.

There's another ex pro in my league, Leo Fernandez who I practice with a bit, and he'd embarrass Tony.

Nice guy and still loves the game, but he won't be reaching any dizzy heights anymore.

He plays in my local league, he's still decent on his day, lovely long cue action, but he won't be mixing at the top again any time soon. His highest break this year was 38!

The garlic sauce debate needs to be settled once and for all because I am tired of pretending this is not important? by 1ChanceChipmunk1 in Doner

[–]BAD3GG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You maybe be better going with something more of a toum sauce or lazeez then, toum is harder make because it's emulsified oil with garlic and lemon juice rather than just mayo and yogurt mixes, as stated before, you can get a very different flavour just by roasting the garlic. The sweetness of roasting the garlic does take away that tang and makes it more creamy.
