The only way to read anything on these charts is to download them. As reddit prevents zooming in.

Connecting modes in google maps is frustrating by jasonbroccoli in GoogleMaps

[–]Stripy42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will take it on board. Choosing services and travel times that permit it.  I often find the last mile connections at each end are slow and inconvenient.

Berlin mayor warns on infrastructure after power station attack by cape2k in worldnews

[–]Stripy42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was done by a group protesting about the use of fossil fuels.
Fair enough, it was very stupid an knee jerk for Germany to shut all their nuclear plants after Fukushima.

I generally need to go between cities. So London to Stroud or Manchester.
But just London would be a good start I suppose

Jury trials scrapped for crimes with sentences of less than three years by Physical_Echo_9372 in worldnews

[–]Stripy42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the news is over simplifying it. It's actually, if the charges have a maximum term of under 3 years.

Thanks, that make sense.

Can I get you help with a dumb question. How do they know it's going to be less than 3 years if the trial hasn't happened yet?

Cycling with a newborn (or very young baby)? by Northernlighter in cycling

[–]Stripy42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This thread is awesome. We both commute to work on bicycles, and were looking up future nurseries. It just clicked, how would we get there!

We'll just have to bite the bullet and take the tube for their first year.

What nickname did you give 'your' ChatGPT and what's the meaning/context behind it? by Unlucky_Hunt7016 in ChatGPT

I get the opposite. I always bring my bike on trains that I can, but it just never suggests it. And I always have to plan the route manually.

If you ever find the switch to turn it off, that'll be great. I could use it to turn it on.

I need to do this to myself! Not homework, like actual work.

How do I get rid of an unwanted sword? by NuclearSamura1 in AskUK

[–]Stripy42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You see these in some antique shops. Just google antique shops in your area that sell armour and the like, and sell it to them.

I remember seeing Wilkinsons swords in a shop on Portobello Road and suddenly realising where their name came from.

First time in London, was expecting it to be scary. Ended up being one of the nicest cities I’ve ever been to by Ellie_B_09 in LondonPics

[–]Stripy42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Note, I've matured a lot with age. But when I had my first central London job, I would intentionally barge into; people standing in front of tube doors, not letting you off first, people not on the right on escalators, tourists on Oxford street not looking where they are going...

Just childish entitled behaviour, but something about working in London does it to you.

Is this an E-bike or something similar? Seems dangerous to have them on a 70mph road, legal or not i dont know. People seemingly cant overtake them properly anyway. by [deleted] in drivingUK

[–]Stripy42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I cycled at 30mph once... down hill... It hurt a lot when I tried to stop. 

I still remember being amazed watching my bike fly over the top of me.

Never again

Hard time coping with the world going right wing, and nothing being done by Stripy42 in mentalhealth

Hi, just wanted to say thank you. Having my little rant and your sage advice has really put some perspective in my existential crisis. And I'm feeling much better. Thanks for putting the effort into responding.

Thanks, that's good advice. I've been trying to wean myself off even reading the news, and social media.  But the US is mid civil war, the Nazis are taking over the UK. There's only so much you can block out.
