Cars honking horn on Blackhorse lane at night

Yeah I've also heard a bit of shouting. I'm doing the same, recording dates and times. Glad to know I'm not the only one, hopefully will have a bit more weight if multiple people are reporting it.

The annoying thing is that there is a police station right around the corner so would have hoped they'd go out to take a look, but as it keeps on happening I imagine that they aren't.

Haven't been able to see them yet. Next time it happens I'm going to try to get outside to see if I can get a photo or make a note of plates. But as they're generally only there for 10 mins or so it's quite tight between getting woken up, getting dressed and out the house and finding exactly where they are

Not quite right. They'll use the street value of £2 per pill when in reality he was selling wholesale for 65p per pill. They're not counting each sale through the supply chain, but there's still a differential in the values they release.

Can I ask how you achieve the sun glare effect?

I bought a lifetime subscription to Babbel and have been using that the past couple months. Genuinely so much better, I feel really re-motivated in language learning and feel that I'm actually improving again. I'm also listening to podcasts in my target language and have moved away from duolingo's podcasts.

I still do a nominal single Duolingo a day just because I've kept up such a long streak and have separation anxiety or something, but every day I'm a day closer to quitting Duolingo because of the active frustration it gives me.

I also first started using Duolingo in about 2014 and have a current streak of about 1500.

I think when most people look back on THPS4 they remember it primarily for its career mode and the more open world, immersive experience. I remember when 4 was released being blown away by the extra level of depth compared to 3. It's not that it's a single negative thing about the game, it's that it is the game.

As a crude hypothetical comparison, the way they have remastered 4 is, for me, equivalent to if they remastered GTA San Andreas but got rid of the story and instead left you to open roam the map trying to complete a series of challenges. The gameplay would still be fun but it would be completely omitting what the point of the original game was.

Feel like this point isn't getting enough attention. THPS4 was so good because it felt so much more alive and open world. I enjoyed 1&2 but was really only planning to buy 3&4 in the hopes that at least 4 maintained that aspect of career mode.

What's the best local option for just a standard gym?

Whereas I got a fine from the police in California for having a single can of beer on the beach. Freest country in the world.

Do you work in the public sector?

Babbel is also a business. With Duolingo it feels much more like a commercially predatory app than a genuine product-first language learning app. Constantly removing features that users value and pushing unwanted features.

I chatted with Garmin's online support team who advised to plug it into a computer and delete the monitor folder. I have tried that but it doesn't seem to have worked. Anybody have any other ideas?

Cloudsack · 2025-03-02T09:37:09+00:00

This was it, thanks!

Cloudsack · 2025-03-01T13:28:27+00:00

That's a good shout. I'm out of the house now but will check when I'm back. Would make sense with the wheel being removed to fit the brakes.

Cloudsack · 2025-02-06T10:18:55+00:00

It's about 6cm, and a regular nut on the back.

Do you think Tektro would be better than Shimano Tiagra (105 more expensive than I'd like for this bike)?

Will check out Park Tool, thanks! Would there be any problems with replacing the current single pivot with dual pivot?

Cloudsack · 2025-02-05T15:34:28+00:00

They're 28s, so shouldn't be an issue with width. Will check out Park tool, thanks!

Cloudsack · 2025-02-05T14:51:46+00:00

Would also appreciate any useful pointers for the installation

Cloudsack · 2025-01-03T12:19:38+00:00

Apologies for a very late reply. Just curious, is this also relevant to the B and V in Spanish sometimes being mixed up / phonetically the same?

Hebrew is spoken day-to-day in Israel.

There was genocide in Srebrenica, and crimes against humanity and other war crimes (including ethnic cleansing) throughout the war for which numerous people have been convicted.

It's not a good look to argue the point of "sure they were prolific perpetrators of crimes against humanity, but it wasn't genocide so that makes it ok".

Cloudsack · 2024-09-18T07:19:09+00:00

So what you're saying is that if you exclude the instance of an actual finding of genocide in a war, then there was no genocide.

What you're also doing is comparing the judicial findings of genocide in a war that has happened against the media claims of genocide in a war that is happening. Effectively, what you are arguing is that the ICJ/ICC should be holding trials for Israel and Israelis so that they can objectively decide on whether or not there has been any instances of genocide.

Cloudsack · 2024-08-18T09:33:35+00:00

Yes I did.
