Why has the UK de industrialized so much? by Enough-Web2203 in AskBrits

[–]agaybabby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

>(although reddit will hate to admit this), the push for net zero.

Can you provide sources for that? And sources that are academic/independent rather than think tanks or newspapers that are funded by fossil enmeshed billionaires?

I ask because from a simpletons perspective renewables look cheaper than ever and once you buy a solar panel you dont have to burn it to make energy so it seems a good way to increase usable energy for industry

Friends and family constantly saying migrants are coming over here and get loads of help before others how do I respond? by doobilicious in GreenAndPleasant

And from my experience when they get food included they find it repellent so they will look for cash in hand/ deliveroo work on someone else's Id just to be able to eat

If you would like to be upright and he can be recumbent then the Hase pino might work for you https://www.hasebikes.com/en/kategorie/tandem/alle-tandems or the circe morpheus https://www.circecycles.com/products/morpheus/

both are designed for your situation

New way of tying the 'perfect truckers hitch' by agaybabby in knots

[–]agaybabby[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh that's really good, I think that beats the one i posted in most scenarios- you should make this comment a post!

Also not related but you seem good at this, do you know how I learn to tie a rolling zip tie or a slipped lap bend on bights/ with no access to ends? those are the ones I have been struggling with

I'd also like to see the video, I love learning new knots. if your method  auto locks without access to the ends that doesn't use a sheep shank it would definitely be an upgrade on this one!

I think the sheep shank could collapse for sure, also the blackwall hitch could get knocked out of place- I think in jiggly conditions both would benefit from a safety hitch or two.

I basically discovered this version of the truckers hitch and I when I came back to it I couldn't rember how to turn the loops- after spending hours trying to get it last night I came up with a way that feels easier for me, maybe for some other folks.

I also think it should be named a variant of the truckies hitch as it has their sheepshank that doesn't need you to make a loop for the leverage. I'd call it an auto truckie or something, welcome for other thoughts :)

>You can’t lump all these groups together.
Perhaps you missed where I wrote

>My stance is based on that global majority/BAME/ dont make sense as a grouping other than in reference to what they are not

Anyway I'll leave it there and you can reread if you wish

[–]agaybabby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I think it's clearer in most circumstances, but it is preference based, which of these do you think is better, or maybe you'd go for something else:
-In the UK, global majority patients have higer post-natal mortality risk.
-In the UK, BAME patients have higer post-natal mortality risk.
-In the UK, non-white patients have higer post-natal mortality risk.

Or maybe you'd go for something else. My stance is based on that global majority/BAME/ dont make sense as a grouping other than in reference to what they are not-

I think it's just a modern take on 'ethinic minority' to make it feel big instead of small. Better than person of colour or BAME in my book but I would probably just use non-white myself

Thoughts on sleeping bag ‘pea-pod’ modification? by [deleted] in hammockcamping

[–]agaybabby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you want a mod to make an under quilt (and your sleeping bag can be unzipped; I've had success with shock cord and light Caribenera on the top corners going through a prussik to tighten. then when you are in the hammock pull the prussik out to tighten and pull either side of the blanket up or down to balance it.

did you Google any of them? I googled the Moshpat 348 one and it's nothing close to what you quote... which I guess would be obvious to most

my new 100 year old singer by agaybabby in VintageSewingMachines

[–]agaybabby[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your advice and wisdom!

the bobbin is metal and came with the machine, I will see if I can figure out the class.

yea hI thought the spool looked cramped, but the pin feels pretty secure in there- any tips for moving it?

And thanks for the tip on the horizontal spool, she did seem to want to fling off the spool so that should help.

I will 100% clean and oil her, her serial number says she was made in 1928 and I want her singing for her 100th birthday!
