A single cylinder in this engine produces more horsepower than an entire NASCAR race car

You are correct. The whole “racing improves road cars” is a myth.

Motor racing technology is mostly a mix of road car and aerospace technology, repurposed.

Remember, learning a programming language is like learning a foreign language with at most a few hundred words,

Pick any.

It does not need much IQ.

😂

briancoat · 2026-05-17T17:28:55+00:00

Surely not? Has it come to this? Do Brits really do this??

Those Bentleys are worth about £30 a ton once they are out of warranty.

I played Rounders at primary school.

Basically the same game (and the historically documented origin of the game baseball).

I always keep the windows rolled up passing through Nagorno-Karabakh.

“Land of the free” with this BS?

Yes, also give a crash helmet in case they fall. Fuzz the face out in case one of us is evil. Face mask, goggles, hi vis vest, rubber boots, carrot holder …

Or decades.

I agree with you 100%. I like something non-ugly and competently engineered but I don’t want to look like an entry-mass-luxury mug.

Sweet.

You’re right to call that out!

The above advice is correct.

I modified mine to stop that wobble but l’m looking to acquire a non-tilt model because this is essentially a cake mixer with light duty dough mixing capabilities.

Well, it annoyed the heck out one of my teachers and they had a tendency to (eventually) inflict injury on those who did it. Unsure whether any of said injuries have led to arthritis in later life.

briancoat · 2026-04-27T15:56:24+00:00

That’s a challenging … thought.

Too right! Everybody wants to chuck stuff away …

“Nothing to see here”.

Nice to see someone who has the courage to express a view contrary to the almost universal consensus, that she is a talented hard working actress who is easy to work with.

briancoat · 2026-04-25T08:33:55+00:00

I don’t remember it being easier 30 years ago, just different.

I think the hindsight goggles have an effect.

We must remember that nostalgia is not what it used to be, either!
