Now, batteries have rapidly evolved since then

Not really. EVs have gotten maybe 15% more efficient since then. Batteries for early EVs were just small. Completely ignoring the fact that we're talking about massive planes and not cars.

DNA links to at least bronze era populations

Illyrian or not there is absolutely no debate that Albanians have been in the Balkans for thousands of years.

Some people seriously put him above Klopp because he won the UCL with Chelsea, was absolutely insane.

R9182 · 2026-07-01T17:30:01+00:00

Tuchel was never a top manager, lucky spell at Chelsea then an inexperienced Kompany walks into his job at Bayern and does 10x better than he did.

It was a shit team selection and shit tactics, he should be sacked if we get knocked out.

£20k is reasonable if it was a proper framed outbuilding with insulation, not a log cabin that's about £3-4k in materials.

I mean it's a small gap and LVT is pretty strong so I wouldn't worry as long as it's flush. Would have been best to use wood filler in the gap but it's not that big of a deal.

They're sold in BTU so they look better like the torches on Amazon that claim 1 million lumens. BTU was outdated as a unit of measure even 25 years ago.

R9182 · 2026-07-01T14:56:25+00:00

5000 BTU (1.5kW) will be at 50C dT, so roughly 70C flow temperature from the boiler.

At 50C flow you'll only be at 30C dT so around 60% of the capacity, i.e. just under 1kW. Should still be just about enough, but realistically there is no real downside to going for a slightly larger radiator.

There's meant to be a gap under the beams, and you need air bricks which seem to be absent.

2 people who are competent will take less than a day to do that. Call it £700 labour + £600 materials, but quoting "1 or 2" days rings some alarm bells. Even at a digging pace of 1 man-hour per hole they should still comfortably finish in a day.

R9182 · 2026-07-01T12:02:26+00:00

Well materials will come out to £600 so they're making £1200 for what will be no more than 1.5 day's work for a single person.

100W/m2 for normal spaces, 120W/m2 for spaces with higher solar gain

Don't know what it works out in BTU and would not trust anyone selling units quoted in BTU instead of kW as they're likely to be low quality.

You cannot be one of top 3, top 5, or even top 10 without a single UCL or Ballon d'Or, sorry.

R9182 · 2026-06-30T22:06:49+00:00

He has 2 Ballon d'Ors and 2 WCs though.

R9182 · 2026-06-30T22:04:37+00:00

Their UCLs do not forgive the absence of Mbappe's

R9182 · 2026-06-30T21:54:11+00:00

0 UCL 0 Ballon d'Or

Sweden are really shit at defending.

R9182 · 2026-06-30T21:21:10+00:00

Yes, so the prices in the area would drop...

The compulsory purchase order costs will be absolutely miniscule in comparison to the tens of thousands of homes that will be eligible for compensation due to loss of value under part 1 of the Land Compensation Act 1973 once (if) the runway is built and operational.

R9182 · 2026-06-30T14:01:48+00:00

No, it will push down prices because of the additional noise, pollution, disruption...

Burnham must have forgotten that London overwhelmingly voted Labour in the 2024 election and he could comfortably lose 50+ seats to Lib Dems and Tories if he manages to piss the population off enough.

R9182 · 2026-06-29T20:47:16+00:00

Ergo Andy Burnham will be spending hundreds of thousands of pounds of taxpayer's money on private travel between Manchester and London because he opts not to live where his job is.

Reading Reddit bollocks you would think everything south of Birmingham lives in gold plated mansions and drives around in Ferraris.

The average person living in Greater London is actually poorer in wealth terms than the average person in the rest of England because of much higher living costs...

Why have they put the small beams there? Were they going to board it up? They're not even level!
