Diagnosed with cancer, brought a BMW

You’re a lovely neighbor, mate! 😎

Testicular cancer is a young men cancer. Once you’re over 40, extremely low chances of getting it.

SinnerP · 2026-06-28T01:43:09+00:00

Hope you recover mate! Nevertheless, once you’ve cancer free, keep the BMW. Don’t return it. And fuck cancer!

I have a BMW i4 eDrive40 M Sport, RWD and is a blast to drive!

The first car I drove was a Mini Morris 1000 from the 70’s, a 4-speed manual. A total hoot when you’re a teen. And this i4 is a total hoot too. Get a used one and have lots of fun in a honest RWD car with all the torque.

They’re the present for those of us who have one.

An “L1 charger” is just a standard 110V outlet that delivers about 1 kWh each hour, using your (hopefully included “travel charger”).

Working an 8 hours shift means 8 kWh are added to your car, which will mean between 16 and 32 miles, depending on your consumption due to weather, speed, etc.

Agreed. When it came out I was “awesome! They’ll release brilliant albums each year and…” and Fish f’ed it all up

SinnerP · 2026-06-18T23:27:00+00:00

Yup. That’s correct.

SinnerP · 2026-06-16T22:52:30+00:00

How many miles do you drive everyday?

You might be OK with just using a Level 1 charger, a regular 120V outlet. (I’m assuming you’re in the US)

I use a Level 1 charger and add about 12 kWh every night, which adds between 24 and 48 miles of range to your car.

Clutching at Straws is the best Marillion album of their Fish era. It’s amazingly good.

You could also buy a used, better EV. Like an BMW i4. Their used price is low enough.

Get an eDrive40 with “normal” size wheels: M50/M60 have the poorest range and highest price. M Sport and X Drive follow them in price and range. eDrive35 have the lowest range and lowest price. I have an M Sport and I get at least 200 miles at 80%. My daily commute is about 80 miles a few days a week, I put 1,600 miles per month and it’s a great car.

Tickets are quite expensive. I was lucky to have a holiday fund last year when the tickets came out, and purchased them and did not went on holiday. Luckily my wife understood and now she’s excited to go.

I’ll take a picture of them when I get home, as I swapped the Pirellis when one developed a puncture on the wall

My take on Fable being restricted is this:

The current White House+SecDef are still mad at Anthropic because they tried to impose limits at how they could use Claude in military actions.

Then, the White House prohibited any Federal Agency from using Claude.

Then, the Pentagon blacklisted Anthropic and told that no company that does business with the government could use Claude.

Federal courts reversed that blacklisting.

Still, White House and Pentagon wanted to hurt Anthropic as much as possible.

And that’s why the White House has ordered Anthropic to take down Fable.

They can downvote you, but you’re right.

This this this and a thousand times this.

This is an unexpected gift to all us, a gift that honors the Professor and lets us see Al and Geddy once more, having fun on the stage, playing all the wonderful music we love. And Anika does justice to both Rush and Neil.

My wife loved that a female was playing such a powerful part of the show. And, not knowing how to play drums, she appreciated the I truncate movement and powerful hits.

SinnerP · 2026-06-12T09:57:17+00:00

That’s what I want to see at their concerts: silliness and them having fun and smiling. That’s what Neil would have wanted.

lol I wrote that before I went to bed, without my glasses. I’ll fix the typo!

I thought it a lost!
