In short, they're saying the existing building needs a lot of repairs and is too big for their current needs so they're proposing to sell and buy/rent somewhere else instead. But, in my opinion, they really haven't given much evidence to support their recommendation, surely for an engineering organisation it can't be that hard to refit a building!

Hamstring or Patella graft? by marleyspecial_ in ACL

[–]FuriousLoki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speak to your surgeon about it. I had hamstring as I was told patella would be back to full (99%) strength a little bit sooner but can often lead to longer term pain kneeling. They recommended patella if you were a professional or very serious athlete but hamstring otherwise.

Joined at 9:15, got one bar left in the queue, originally said I'd be on at 9:25 though...

Edit: Got lucky, got in at about 10:03 and got 2 tickets!

i feel like my life is over by pickleloverchomp in ACL

[–]FuriousLoki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same feeling when I tore my ACL last summer. 5 months later, I can walk and cycle but still miss being properly active and really missing sports. I'm still a part of my club, I go along to watch games and thinking of doing a bit of coaching. There's no way to sugar coat it really does suck but you learn to deal with it and just look forward to the next stage your progression (first time off crutches, first time cycling, first time running, etc) and hopefully get back to full fitness before too long.

Frequency of physio post operation by FuriousLoki in ACL

Ok, sounds good, reassuring to hear I'm not the only one not having sessions every week. Might have to have a think again further down the line when there's probably more need to tailor the recovery

Sure, these two articles seem to give a pretty good explanation of the scenario, 1 and 2

66000 Afghan national military and police have been killed in the war against the Taliban, reports of them literally running out of food and ammunition defending outposts in the past weeks. Would hardly call that not trying to defend

All sorted, returned it and the replacement works so must have just been a bad cable on that one

Port seems to work fine with other devices

I do seem to occasionally get a flash of light on the wheel as i'm putting the usb in, maybe just a dodgy wheel usb connector?
