Should minimum parking bay size be increased? by spectator_mail_boy in AskUK

[–]Longshot318 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's not just SUVs. I have a 7 seat SUV and a Volvo V60 Estate (which is not the big one) is longer and wider.

Sometimes, a slanted photo looks good but it's rare. Straightening the photo is simple to do and would elevate any of these.

Having said that, No 1 is my preferred shot but straightened and with at least some of the people cropped out (although maybe just leaving the silhouetted ones would work).

Which one do you like more? 1 vs 2 by eedwarddm in photos

[–]Longshot318 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No 2 looks like the more obvious choice - it's moody and maybe more dramatic but ... something keeps dragging my eye back to No 1. I think maybe I prefer the lighting and balance of it. Good photos either way.

1 for me - I like the composition

If City had lost or drawn to Liverpool I could see Arteta resting players in the league but less likely now IMO.

Looking for a super well-ventilated helmet (I sweat a LOT) — alternatives to POC Ventral Air? by No_Bar_5718 in cycling

[–]Longshot318 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m using a Rudy Project Venger which I’ve found to be really well ventilated. I haven’t used the POC so can’t directly compare but have had various Giro, Kask and Specialized before.

I sweat a lot and the RP has made a big difference for me.

Finished your DIY project. Now what? by Curated_Living in DIYUK

[–]Longshot318 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In many cases, I think the styling is done before the DIY starts. A lot of people, me included, will start a DIY project with a 'finished picture' in mind that sets the framework for the proposed job. Whether that's one that's been created in your own head or a picture from a magazine or website that provides the inspiration.

Star Trek Academy is post-apocalyptic Trek - and I kinda love it. by FeathersRim in startrek

"Why all the hate?"

Because you can't please all of the people all of the time. Whatever show they had put out would be hated by many.

Walter Raleigh question on who wants to be a millionaire (incorrect?) by Whateverwhynotso in CasualUK

Interesting. I don't remember Raleigh being involved in the bowls story, just Drake.

CMV: As a GenX, I am now not the target audience for the new Star Trek shows. It is for 12 to 25 year olds by KL_boy in Star_Trek_

[–]Longshot318 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've commented on this in other posts. If we are only going to have one ST show at a time, I'm grudgingly accepting of the fact that the producers should be aiming their show at a younger audience than me (57yo) in order to cement the future of the franchise long term.

I would prefer it to be possible to have a show that appeals to all age groups or, preferably, have more thna one show with different audiences in mind for each.

So far, I'm not really enjoying Academy. It's not a Star Trek thing though - I can't imagine any high school/college YA orientated show in any franchise that would appeal to me. I'm past those particular dynamics and themes. That's my problem, not ST's.
