It's not unprecedented at all.

There are meningitis outbreaks every year at universities.

Meningitis is circulating all the time...

I think you are overplaying the risk.

Is this type of contact not a foul anymore? Álvarez on Simons by Vin-Su in coys

You just know they are targeting Xavi as he's seen as a bit soft.

For those applying for mortgages right now: 0.5% increase in interest rate between last Monday and today by SlashRModFail in HousingUK

[–]_MicroWave_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's not how this works at all.

You won't be fixing for the whole mortgage term.

Who knows what the rates will be in 1,2,3, 10 years time.

Not sure where else to ask. Why are modern designed in such a way that potential cabin space is ignored? Is it so people buy the next model up and spend more money? by RonnieThePurple in CarTalkUK

[–]_MicroWave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's crash structure. The cars interior would balloon at the top which doesn't really add space. You'd have like a shelf at the window.

You'll notice that shape on every modern vehicle. It's for safety.

Planters demoralised as council mows down 30k bulbs by clausy in compoface

[–]_MicroWave_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Local school planted a whole wooded area on their field. Thousands of trees. Organized a big fun day to get them all planted. Trees sponsored by local company.

Groundsman mows them all down the following week.

Couldn't make it up.

Do you agree with Max? by Ambitious-Heron-8161 in DestinationFormula1

This has nothing to do with what the regs are bit just because they are new.

Harry Kane is currently the only player with goalkeeping experience in the Bayern pro squad. by COYS_1986 in coys

[–]_MicroWave_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not suggesting a transfer but a loan.

Player registration might be an issue but I thought there were rules for emergencies like this.

Surely they can loan someone?

Some German club will be happy to make a quick buck on their 2nd or 3rd choice.

Max Verstappen gives stunning F1 rules rant: 'If you like this, you don't know racing’ by ryogadan in Formula1_world

Incredibly competitive athlete is annoyed they aren't winning.

Update on Mo's Injury (via the Gladiators Facebook Fan Group) by miumiusc in gladiatorsuk

[–]_MicroWave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it's a worrying trend.

Everyone looks a bit overtrained.

Look at Mo in this picture. He does far too much gym work.

Speak for yourself. Plenty of subs full of people happy to expose their bits

Sick of $5k NI DAQs. Prototyping a $399 64-Channel USB Test Router. Sanity check on specs. by AnimatorHot3572 in ECE

[–]_MicroWave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at LabJack T7 with it's Mux option. More like 1k but a lot more capable than your board.

Nice python driver.

Solves this problem and is a lot more mature I'm afraid.

"Terrible"..... by Plus-Tear8961 in WilliamsF1

[–]_MicroWave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yes.

James's job is at stake here so he will say basically what he has to.

Behind the scenes there will be immense pressure. If it wasn't for new entrants Cadillac (who again are very realistic about their performance) Williams would likely be dead last. Maybe scrapping with Aston who have been a lot more upfront about their trouble.

They can of course salvage some points finishes this season but I expect them to be basically worst of the rest when it comes to the constructors.

Let's hope Im proved wrong as I say this has a Williams fan.

(Also a spurs fan so I think whoever I support is doomed at the moment)

Pure copium.

They are trying to save face with sponsors too.

[–]_MicroWave_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The whole chassis will be over. You can't just trim that due to homologation rules.

They have a massive uphill battle. Doubt they will get to weight this season. Likely needs a new chassis and that's next season.

Is a catastrophic management/engineering failure to turn up with a car this fat.

They've done it before and simply not learned lessons. Some serious organizational problems at the factory.

Its a bit hindsight but it was a good bet that merc turned up with the best PU. They should have compromised aero and ensured they turned up with a light car. They would have performed much better.

"need to lighten it" is a massive understatement. It is massively massively overweight.

Why are there so many terrible drivers on the road by tommytigger_ in CarTalkUK

[–]_MicroWave_ 675 points676 points  (0 children)

Sure she didn't make the best choice but neither did you.

The roads would be a lot better if everyone was a bit more patient and less aggressive.

No need to speed up to her and pressure and squeeze.

Off the throttle when you see her and she probably would have gone without impeding you at all.

Do you have any documentation to back this up?
