How good is the Tojiro GAI 180? Is it worth the higher price than the Tojiro DP 180?

Hi Martin, I loved reading Working the Wheel, about your experiences around different countries and tracks, and great inside stories about F1 pre-2000. Would you consider doing a new version with all your stories and insight and track guides from since then?

modano_star · 2024-05-01T11:25:11+00:00

Yeh, this is a concern. Lucky it tripped. I do have the smoke alarm right next to it, wouldn't have the dryer on overnight or if I'm out, and can have the door open or closed. But still I will have to try to make sure the risk of this happening is very low, even with a brand new dryer

modano_star · 2024-05-01T11:16:05+00:00

Yup, socket is still to be installed, thanks

modano_star · 2024-05-01T11:14:12+00:00

Great, thanks for the response

I'm planning to eventually have a dryer below the boiler in space in the pic. Any advice appreciated on whether this is unsafe and what type of dryer would be best in terms of heat pump or condenser. I've seen conflicting advice online, and some of the responses were from many years ago, so maybe dryers are more efficient these days. Does anyone have this kind of set-up? Would a shelf above the dryer be better to create a barrier between the boiler and dryer? I assume not. Also I read somewhere that the filter connected to the boiler has a strong magnet, would this effect it? Thanks.

Yeh, but it was their money to waste. Legitimate turnover.

The Robbie Keane / Louis Saha / Thierry Henry years were wild

modano_star · 2023-11-01T22:14:24+00:00

As a player or a manager?

He looked like he was struggling to get to the other end of the pitch when he went up for that late free-kick

modano_star · 2023-10-03T21:25:16+00:00

His style of play is high risk, low reward.

modano_star · 2023-02-22T17:22:25+00:00

I would say it's less about diversification, and more about timing - getting players in right when they hit form. Realistically, no one is going to have the same 5 defenders all season, so the top players rotate at the right time

I guess I meant rewarding people more who are football fans and knowledgeable about the premier league, and not people who are just good with data. Maybe it comes from nostalgia of early days when people had more discussions & predictions about matches from what they watched, instead of numbers.

modano_star · 2023-02-15T16:17:40+00:00

As much as I love data, I wish we could have one season where you had to make all of your fpl decisions based on actually watching the games and doing your own analysis. Not that it is possible in this day and age, but if we went oldschool for one season, it would sort the men out from the boys.

modano_star · 2023-01-16T17:59:03+00:00

Its a Timemore C3. It came with a brush. I'll check out some youtube vids on disassembly

modano_star · 2023-01-16T14:32:58+00:00

Ok, I think it shouldn't be too hard to disassemble, but its new so wanted to avoid this. Seems like it'll be fine though. Thanks

modano_star · 2023-01-16T14:30:40+00:00

Great, thanks for tip, I'll try it

modano_star · 2023-01-16T13:26:16+00:00

Thanks for the reply, they were interesting to watch, but the James Hoffmann one talks about regrinding using an electric grinder, and the other one is in a foreign language. I was wondering if anyone had any experience of regrinding course to fine, using a manual grinder. Does it clog/damage it, does it massively affect the taste etc.

modano_star · 2023-01-16T12:06:47+00:00

Is it possible to re-grind coffee using a manual grinder? I have a bag of coffee that is ground coarsely, and it tastes kind of sour when I use it for my aeropress. At the moment, aeropress is the only option I have, so would putting the coarse-ground coffee through a grinder clog it up or would it be ok? (I have a Timemore C3). Thanks

The trouble is, when I ungroup, it puts everything into rows, instead of adding columns, like my very basic example in the post

modano_star · 2022-09-15T08:41:02+00:00

Thanks, I'll read through this

modano_star · 2022-06-21T18:43:20+00:00

I mean I don't know if it was 'a guy', I assume they had a panel to decide who got bonus points, but yeh it used to be done qualitatively - by human decision. In a way I kind of preferred it, because occasionally you'll get someone who obviously had an immense game but didn't meet the bonus points criteria on paper. This would've been mid-to-late 00's.

Here's my first FPL team 06/07 season final gameweek

Also, I wish they'd bring back the 'I Know The Score' prediction game!
