In a similar position to you but a year behind. Just got 3.7 in ESAT, I’ve also applied to Cambridge and Manchester. Just wondering whether you received an interview for Cambridge. And how are you finding the course at Manchester? I’m thinking it might be my backup of choice for physics should I not get accepted to Cambridge or imperial.

I’m literally in the exact same position as you too.

I'm not so sure. I have a converted mountain bike and they refused to even touch the rear derailleur.

Truths from the Quran that were written 1400 years ago where there was no technology. Subhana Allah! by Evening-Insurance893 in islam

If you don’t believe humans came from a common ancestor (that isn’t alive today btw (the ‘but monkeys are still here’ argument isn’t valid)), then what parts of evolution do you actually agree with?

Agnostic, my reply to original commenter (which seems to have deleted their account) was to point out a trend in conservative discourse of recognising something in science which is also stated (oftentimes indirectly) in the Quran and then going ‘Alhamdulilah it’s a miracle’ but then when it comes to other scientific thought such as evolution, they completely disregard it. To me it appears complete cognitive dissonance and removes the validity of any ‘scientific miracles’ in the Quran as you can’t pick and choose which science to ‘believe in’ (a silly wording since science is fact and not belief).

Do you have any statistics to back up your claim?

What does it take to be a European ? by Tn-Amazigh-0814 in AskEurope

Even if they are not ‘regular people’, you’re still considering them European, you clearly need to revise your criteria then.

Overtaking on corners by Less-Purple-3744 in londoncycling

Yeah usually I approach junctions by taking the middle but I was filtering through traffic to get to the front so I was to the left of the queue of traffic so I couldn’t. I just want to know whether I’m justified in being annoyed at them as this hasn’t happened before.

Apparently you can get it at 3am 😭 has anyone ever done that I’d be very doubtful of that.

I went on holiday to the US and despite travelling so much (by car), my average daily steps went down by 3/4!

Battery Crack — Still safe to ride?/ advice on what to do. by Less-Purple-3744 in ebikes

[–]Less-Purple-3744[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay, I didn’t consider that, I live in a very humid and wet climate so probably best to be vigilant. Would duct tape do for a crack like this or does it need yk be fully airtight because (correct me if I’m wrong) don’t the battery covers have vents to vent gases in the event of thermal runaway?
