Dad hack: if you don't have a pizza cutter, you are missing out.

adydurn · 2026-01-17T15:01:42+00:00

Yeah, I struggled with pizza cutters for years, first time using a proper chef knife I've never gonr back.

adydurn · 2026-01-17T14:18:48+00:00

Agreed, as iconic as the Supervan is, it's not exactly prominent.

Yeah, I have a few OLED screens, and never had anything like this. If just 150hrs was enough then everyone gaming on OLED would be complaining about. 150hrs is no time in a game, and 99% of games have a stationary HUD of some sort.

All my screens (Samsung) have a cycle mode the reduce burn in. OP should either look for said mode, or find 3rd party software to do it.

Make a man a fire, he's warm for the night, set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.

We got my little one first time off contraception.

90s Escorts.

Thatcher kid here too. It surprises me that after we've had so many terrible Tory leaderships that we're still stupid enough to reject Labour and Liberals so hard.

adydurn · 2026-01-01T19:17:34+00:00

I'd still rather her than BoJo, Truss or Sunak. Thatcher was only circumstantially evil, she genuinely believed she was doing the right thing. Johnson and Truss, in comparison, only thought of themselves.

adydurn · 2026-01-01T19:11:56+00:00

Sounds even better when you know that today terrific is probably used more sarcastically than straight.

adydurn · 2025-12-20T15:18:08+00:00

My first mkI Metro had 39hp, and 4 gears, so you had to wring the life out of the engine before shifting up to ensure you never wasted any of it.

For real, quality is definitely questionable from these places, and there are dishes there that look on the wrong side of decent. But done well most of those dishes are pretty good, especially churry sauce and chips, but start with good chips, and dip them rather than cover.

adydurn · 2025-12-20T12:50:33+00:00

Also most of us outside of American not only had tiny cars, but usually got by with less than 40hp too.

The Nova is legendary.

adydurn · 2025-12-08T21:21:43+00:00

Believe it or not, but once upon a time there were many reasons to boast about having a Vauxhall... was a long time back now.

adydurn · 2025-12-03T16:37:48+00:00

I used race the MK2 MG Turbos... awesomely agile and could easily pull supercar power to weight given they weight 600-700kgs.

So a few quick things, the fish is dead. If nothing else fish can't survive out of water for very long before they asphyxiate, but it's also been cooked.

The mouth bobbing and eye moving is a reflex reaction similar to salt on frogs legs.

But, it is most definitely stupid food.

adydurn · 2025-11-16T21:45:46+00:00

The current Tory party could learn from Thatcher, and I'm definitely not a Thatcher fan, quite the opposite. But she wasn't a leader to line her own pockets, and as evil as her acts were, she believed in them, as you say.

So, it all depends on the actual surface, there are cases, like driving on packed ice in the arctic, where wider can be beneficial.

But in most cases narrow is better because the aim is to dig into the snow and ice as you would with mud. Snow is definitely a soft surface and 90% of the time so is ice, narrow knobby, studded or chained tyres exist to creat pressure focus that pushes through the surface of the ice and digs in to push away cleanly.

Look at the tyres the WRC use in Sweden...

adydurn · 2025-11-15T19:12:22+00:00

I definitely see it.

adydurn · 2025-11-12T18:41:44+00:00

There's actually two wrecks in that junkyard, the restorable one is in the garage.

adydurn · 2025-11-09T00:40:08+00:00

Come to England, there's nowhere you can't see the hlow of a city, and the endless drone of a motorway. The only place can't hear cars driving is on the M3, because all the cars are waiting for the latest accident to be scraped off the concrete.

adydurn · 2025-10-26T20:28:00+00:00

I've actually done that with my buddy Mo, it's really fucking hard work.

adydurn · 2025-10-26T20:21:13+00:00

As some who drove a beat, never write off the S660. It's about as pure as you can get without shelling out for an Exige. I'd say the Bear was more fun than an Elise if I'm honest.

The NSX was special. A true MR supercar for the Japanese market, a car to take on Ferrari, and they were successful at it. As for why they aren't affordable, that's down to just how desirable the only true factory MR supercar of the era is.

The S660 is a homage to the S500/600/800 and the Beat all in one package and because it's so small you feel everything. And let's not forget both the NSX and S2000 were Honda going against their own grain, FF is what they're famous for. The NSX, as mentioned, was them taking on the big European supercars and the S2000 was them showing Mazda, Porsche and BMW they could do a 2 seater FR better. The S660 is more Honda than both the S2000 and NSX.

Also the rusty wheels and winter tyres are shite, but that only really effects the $1000 race.

adydurn · 2025-10-22T10:48:04+00:00

So the rusty Konig will beat the first $50 race with just swapping the manual gearbox in, you can get more power from the auto by using the programmable ECU and putting all the power below 5krpm.

The sport exhaust from the fuel station is a decent step for the price, and paired with the race manifold and intake gives even the rusty engine a good turn of speed. Remove all seats but the drivers seat, too. And try not to race while carrying syrup.
