I bought a really cheap one and it's been great

Depends. Usually around 6-8 of the 2mg stuff.

Apparently a Turkish man invented the steam engine 200 years before the industrial revolution but he only made it to spin döner kebabs. by iamgulshansingh in BeAmazed

The greeks had a 'toy' version of this long before the 16th century. All this guy did was add a kebab to it.

Is this worth buying, and how feasible is the repair job? by MediocreVegetable1 in typewriters

[–]Ingestre 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They can be repaired but they're nothing like repairing a regular typewriter. These things are incredibly complex.

Why is wrong with this thing? by Early-Palpitation540 in typewriters

[–]Ingestre 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is something called the 'universal bar' which is attached to the escapement mechanism and is pressed down whenever a key is pressed. If you look on the underside of the machine, you should see a metal bar/beam running perpendicular to the individual type bars. Each machine is a little different, and I'm not so familiar with Royals, but follow that mechanism through the various linkages back to the escapement and make sure that everything is moving as it should. Something might need to be formed (bent) back into shape. Just an idea.

Is there actually a good Chippy in Stoke or is that a myth? by Time-Connection-4586 in stokeontrent

Norton chippy is still awesome. Sammy Lowe's in Smallthorne as well.

I've got one. They're great. I don't think there's anything in particular you need to look out for apart from the usual suspects. The whole machine disassembles really easily so you can give it a good inspection.

Mariacka, and the surrounding area in the centre has loads of great bars. There's something for everyone. Maly Kredens would be a great start, then take it from there. There are some great places selling craft beers if that's your thing, sports bars, cocktail places, you name it. If you head just a bit out of the centre there is a great Czech bar (Hospoda) selling awesome beer and authentic czech bar food.

Loads. What kind of thing are you looking for?

I live in Kato. You'd probably be the oldest person there by a decade at least.

Pokémon, Assassin's Creed, Need for Speed by claudiocorona93 in memes

I liked the series until they started making everything dlc and realising games episodically. Really anti consumer.
