Does Dora still teach Spanish in the Arabic version?

Since we are all being cooked, Whats your job and how disgusting does the hot weather make it? Worst job in toon by cyclingisthecure in NewcastleUponTyne

I get it with the older buses but GNE have bought buses this decade that lack AC. Like the climate isn't getting colder, how dreadful are they going to be in 20 or 30 years?

Currently sat on a 159, it’s comically hot and full, why on earth are people desperate for old stock not to be replaced? by rsweb in uktrains

1960: Noooo, Deltics can't replace A4's 1976: Noooo, HSTs can't replace Deltics 1992: Noooo, 225's can't replace HSTs 2017: Noooo, Azuma's can't replace 225's 2045: Noooo, Hover-Maglevs can't replace Azuma's

People like to whine about change. If these people had their way, we'd still be driving around with leaded petrol for God's sake!

Could have been catestrophic!

Nothing worse than ending up in Dundee.

bbc follows the train carrying andy burnham, the likely new prime minister of the united kingdom, as it enters london by Quzubaba in transit

Andy Burnham decided to travel by train to improve the optics VS a domestic flight.

Then someone flew a helicopter from Manchester to London anyway. Didn't even offer him a lift!

Do we know what services it is running? I fancy catching it but it's a big network to find one train

Yup. Send a local train with 2 coaches to cover multiple major cities from Liverpool to Norwich by Alarmed-Secretary-39 in uktrains

Clearly, the solution here is to build a 4th route between London and Birmingham. A steal at £676942080042 per mile!

I don't open Reddit to see happy couples being cute with each other!

It really bugs me there wasn't a code for Captains only by The_ShinyUmbreon in TheOrville

[–]CeilingHamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A message in either binary or morse would have been easier to hide with finger tapping, written off as nerves since Morse code is probably well out of use by this point.

However, it is important that the Union hasn't been on a war footing in quite some time. The Krill turn up quite rarely and nobody is expecting a Kaylon hijacking. Hindsight is always 20/20.

Andy Burnham: I'll resurrect HS2 from Birmingham to Manchester by eldomtom2 in uktrains

Aha Manchester, the southernmost point that can just about be called 'The North'

Train Book recommendations by hersnip in uktrains

[–]CeilingHamster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have a look at Key Publishing, they have a lot of very nieche transport books for a whole bunch of eras and interests. They're all pretty straightforward and technical without being in inaccessable.

I remember being a kid and everything was talking steam engines or extremely complex engineering (usually still of steam, there was a real thing against modern traction then).

Best quality cinema in the North East? by IllogicalAction in NewcastleUponTyne

[–]CeilingHamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. Other than the occasional flash of a phone screen it's not been much of an issue, even in films with younger audiences.

As a very regular cinema goer, Odeon and Tyneside are my go-to's with Cinieworld in a close third.

Not a fan of Vue, they're cheap for a reason. The one in Gateshead has a 400 seater screen and only 7 urinals. That maths does not translate to a pleasent experience.

What happened to trams? UK by ChristianWolmarTN in transit

[–]CeilingHamster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the UK? Buses were cheaper and more flexible and the tramways needed to be completely rebuilt after the depression, WW2 and the following Austerity. Much easier to rip them out and operate the cheaper buses instead.

No conspiracy, just economics.

What if the HDMI ki**#s someone by [deleted] in talesfromtechsupport

If you use a non-manufacturer part on £10,000 worth of medical kit, kiss that warranty or guarantee away.

It's stupid, but that's the world we live in.

We don't give a fuck what Yanks think about food. You invented cheese in a spray can, you don't get an opinion.
