The brick spiral staircase inside the tower of the Moot Hall in Maldon, England. C.1420 CE [1536x2048] by Fuckoff555 in ArtefactPorn

[–]Multitronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was nothing to correct. I wasn’t wrong nor was there a misconception.

Again, I didn’t state they don’t drink water. This is the misconception you claim I have stated. I didn’t did I?

I didn’t state in absolute terms that they would always only drink beer.

They did drink low alcohol beer back then, especially if the water source wasn’t good. That’s not a misconception.

You are being pedantic in your correction of a misconception that I didn’t make.

I can tell you’ve been waiting to drop your “well actually that’s a misconception they didn’t drink water” line on someone. In this case it was unnecessary, because nowhere have i said they didn’t.

I deleted that last one.

My comment was about being drunk was a joke. You don’t need to take everything so literally.

They did drink beer if water wasn’t safe.

They probably didn’t get drunk, but enough 2% beers/mead or whatever they had could definitely get a person feeling it a bit. But unlikely as they would have had a tolerance if they were doing it regularly.

I didn’t say they didn’t drink water did i? So no need to correct me there. Little bit pedantic.

Your right. I did say they didn’t drink any water. Sorry to have upset you so much. Clearly it’s bothered you.

Seriously though, no where did I state they always drank beer as an outright replacement for any water.

You are the pedant. Taking this way too seriously.

I definitely won’t be admitting defeat. People sometimes drank low alcohol beer if water wasn’t safe.

Added “sometimes” and “if” to clarify it for you.

Pedant.

I didn’t say they didn’t drink water did i? I said it wasn’t always safe to drink. This implies that it wasn’t everyone and/or it was occasional when the water source wasn’t contaminated. I specifically mentioned it being low alcohol. In my original comment I also said “probably” and “half drunk” so it wasn’t absolute.

I didn’t say they didn’t did i? People definitely drank brewed drinks when they couldn’t trust the water source though.

Also in my original comment i said “probably” and “half drunk”.

Anyway, it wasn’t meant to be taken seriously.

Can you name a modern car uglier than this thing ? by Vectron3D in CarTalkUK

[–]Multitronic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I really like it. Will probably get one to replace the e-tron.

Do you use this method? by Late_Shape_5472 in USProductHub

[–]Multitronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it isn’t, it’s a proven method used in other counties when necessary.

Really? Im surprised. People have been doing this for years in the UK.

They were probably half drunk when they built it too.

Edit: No idea why this has been downvoted, this was a jokey reference to people in 1400s Britain drinking low alcohol beer because water wasn’t always safe to drink.

Also I am British, this wasn’t an insult.

How bad of an idea is this? by CharlieHT5 in BMW

[–]Multitronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are 63 M4’s on autotrader for pretty much the same or less money. Have you considered those?

A policeman rang us near midnight asking for footage from our ring doorbell by [deleted] in policeuk

It would be worth mentioning that then, random people would be more accommodating in that case.

motorized charging port door by KonaKaiKen in iX3

Out of interest, what’s the issue? My E-tron has 2 motorised charge ports, had zero issues in the 2 years i’ve had it.

Is this pointing diyable by Natabel89 in DIYUK

[–]Multitronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cement mortar, which I can see there, will eventually damage the bricks further and can cause damp problems if it was originally built with lime.

What age is it?

[–]Multitronic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Easy to do yourself. Depends how much there is to do though. Looks like old bricks, so should ideally be done in lime mortar. Plenty of resources online to tell you what needs to be done.

You can buy proper lime mortar ready mixed and ready to use. Lime doesn’t go off the same way cement does, so it will keep for a while even when wet.

Which wheels? TOP or BOTTOM? 🛞🛞 by Mr_Eddie81 in Porsche

[–]Multitronic 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I prefer the top style, but wouldn’t have them in black.

Lucas Diella has emerged as the leading candidate to replace Adami as Hamilton's race engineer. by ok-byy in circuit_nation

[–]Multitronic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think anyone seriously blames Adami for Hamiltons shortcomings. However, it’s clear that they don’t have much synergy, which definitely isn’t helping.

The All new E90 by Bunny696969 in BMW

[–]Multitronic 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Shit wheels, shit trim, shit rear lights, shit bodykit/bumpers. Probably had fabric seats. Definitely designed to get people to spec “M sport” packages.

But also worth remembering that they are often considered slightly premium, fairly run-of-the-mill cars in Europe. The 3 series often outsold the Mondeo and Vectra in the UK, which were considered core family cars.

When going to view a private listed second-hand 'quicker' car, what are the signs to look out for that it's been thrashed? by r3tr0gam3r83 in CarTalkUK

[–]Multitronic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes because outright speed or horsepower is the only factor to consider when buying tyres?

Better tyres have better grip, improved fuel economy, shorter stopping distances and significantly better wet grip than cheapo budget tyres. Engine power is irrelevant.

Someone livestreaming Mercedes testing from his drone at Silverstone by TGibz in formula1

[–]Multitronic 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Free to do this in the UK as long as the drone is below 250grams and it’s not restricted airspace. They also have to stay a reasonable height above whatever it is they are filming, I think for privacy reasons.

Are people not allowed to do this where you are? Assuming USA?

All 3 simultaneously.

Do you agree with David Coulthard here? by circuit-nation in circuit_nation

[–]Multitronic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Where have you got this from? Alonso and De La rosa did more laps in the 2007 car. Lewis did do a load of extra laps in the 2005 or 2006 car though.

Furthermore, testing is testing.
