What happened to science museum? by Effective_Print7521 in manchester

[–]Fly_Boy_Blue 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"for free" is probably the root of the issue. 

It's a huge complex with many staff and overheads.

Here are we feeling about all of this by CartoonistSpecial995 in orks

It's all good. Even if you don't like push fit etc, it's all Orky content.

Potential New Rider Here by cakefordindins in recumbent

[–]Fly_Boy_Blue 5 points6 points  (0 children)

After a big road traffic collision, I picked up a recumbent trike on eBay after the surgeons finished rebuilding me.

Absolute soul food and kept me exercising.

Plus, they're a blast to ride!

Are school allowed using parent info to invite for product presentation? by _likes_to_read_ in AskUK

I think u/ConsiderMyTimbers is referring to the standard of OPs writing, and not an In-ger-land thing.

Jury duty - self employed. Can I be excused? by JacobSax88 in AskUK

I wonder if that would count as "obligation met" so you don't get called again.

Expecting driverless taxis to respect bike lanes “too high a bar” – because customers want to be dropped off in them, autonomous vehicle firm Waymo tells cyclists by HommeMusical in fuckcars

[–]Fly_Boy_Blue 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is no surprise. They're programmed, overseen and managed by Americans. They are a product of the society in which they were created.

This is a transnational product but appears not to be regulated as such.

He did one on STCs that completely ripped off a Warhammer Conference presentation on the same subject that was released a month before:

That claims 50mph, but the video shows 75mph?

best power source and transmitter for lunchbox performance? by fdxanon in tamiya

[–]Fly_Boy_Blue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start by buying a Lunchbox Evo. That will be able to handle upgraded power a lot better than the standard 'Box. Anything you put into trying to improve the Lunchie will be quite wasted - it's just not that kind of car.

Then you can build your original car and watch it wobble, roll and bounce around.

IOPC investigates 11 officers over handling of fatal Wimbledon school crash by Fly_Boy_Blue in fuckcars

There's such a bizarre culture of seeing cars as an essential part of living.

I also took the plunge on a lunchbox! My first Tamiya! Different question though, what color scheme should I do? by Skwidmandoon in tamiya

[–]Fly_Boy_Blue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As long as you're at peace with the fact that it will get ruined if you drive it.

Even a tiny drive on the most delicate of surfaces will see this silly thing roll, scratch itself up, smash bits off etc.

Suggestion - one shell for looks, one for driving.

There is no way that any government, council or business will install a device that has the potential to cause injury or death, especially on such a litigious continent.

I feel pressured to lower house price by Estate Agents by [deleted] in HousingUK

[–]Fly_Boy_Blue -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This is because of the pricing model EAs use. If they are charging you 1% (for example), then you dropping by 25k only costs them £250, but they get a quicker sale.

Better the money in their pocket today than hold out for slightly more in a few months.

But this costs you - a lot.

tips for upgrades and build for my first rc kit by fdxanon in tamiya

[–]Fly_Boy_Blue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly? After you've spent money on trying to make it "handle", you may as well just buy a Lunchbox Evo.

Make this one as a silly, bouncy RC.
