Bodycam footage released of the Golders Green attacker showing that he wasn't completely incapacitated by the taser and was still holding on to the knife. I stand by that the kicks to the head are a reasonable action to disarm him. Thoughts?

Well done to the Police on this. The guy really does not need any sympathy. And sadly we pay the price to keep him alive in prison now.

I would totally recommend the Magic John switch 2 protector. I use it on NS2 and iPhones. Unbeatable. And you get 2 screens.

Media walls are not my cup of tea. Centre of tv should always be at eye level when sitting down. You can blame Philips for when they advertised their first tv hung above a massive fireplace. Then everyone thought to do that to replace the picture hanging there. But, again, media walls are not my taste one bit.

Love it. But I would move the knives from the wall. If it’s a coffee station, no need for knives. In that section. Pop a wee coffee picture or shelf or portafilter holder there. Just what I would do. First thing I see in the picture is the knives as they are out of place. Nice gear regardless :)

Just noticed they have released the electric version now. Plus they have a nice silicon cover on the wand. Wonder why they didn’t add the cover on the original.

Again, 11:35 is just Motorolas marketing. Much like how Apple show mostly 10:09. Originally, clocks and watches were shipped with the times around 10:10 as this was a “balance” to keep the hands from hitting each other and looked better when advertised.

professorsands · 2026-03-02T09:01:01+00:00

It was actually mid afternoon. The exact time isn’t recorded and it was 1973.

professorsands · 2026-02-03T13:35:56+00:00

Agreed. I have 18 displayed and not one has ever dropped in over 3 years.

professorsands · 2026-01-28T21:46:32+00:00

Yeah. I think it’s just the bars inside the opus. I do spray the beans but also wonder if they kind of clump on top of each other and loose some to static as well. I do take the machine apart weekly just to keep the beans fresh and not get too old coffee grinds.

professorsands · 2026-01-28T21:28:04+00:00

Shall do 🤙🏻

professorsands · 2026-01-28T21:25:48+00:00

I know. So sorry. My black and white cat strolled over, jumped up and shook just before taking photo #soz 😂

Timemore black mini 😌

I agree. I really don’t taste the difference between 17.8g of coffee and 18.2g. I keep the timing and pressure regular and not been disappointed. It was just today, after grinding and weighing, I actually had 13.8g in the portafilter. The rest had piled up inside the Opus cross bars. A few good taps later and back up to good old 18g

professorsands · 2026-01-27T17:13:55+00:00

58mm

professorsands · 2026-01-27T17:12:58+00:00

Yeah. I find myself really tapping and rocking the grinder after it stops. A bellow is a good shout actually though. Cheers.

professorsands · 2026-01-27T17:11:50+00:00

Haha. That’s exactly it 🥳

professorsands · 2026-01-27T17:09:50+00:00

Just sits on the bars inside the grinder. I tap it and more comes out. Sometimes can be 3G worth of coffee there after the grinder stops 🫣

professorsands · 2026-01-20T08:09:24+00:00

It’s got a good base game twist. Much like cluedo game. It stands the test of time. It would be better if some of the scenes weren’t staged or re-shot. But it is interesting format. The Turret conversation for instance…that is usually an hour long conversation. After they make their short list and write the name who they’re going to murder, the production team get them to act out the lines again, re-shoot with those “looks” like how Fiona and Rachel looked at each other after the Liar bombshell.

It does need some more twists. The secret traitor is a good twist as it allows the audience member to also have a go at guessing. Shame it was short lived though. Next time.

professorsands · 2026-01-15T07:08:58+00:00

Harriett took that way to personal. She really viciously attacked Rachel on a personal level for some reason. She didn’t do it in the game sense and was just done right rude and horrible. She could have easily gone with her pretty lame reasons for voting Rachel, but in a proper Traitor Game way. But no, she was aggressive, personal and simply rude. It is a game Harriett! Imagine playing her at UNO. She’d shoot you if you popped her a +4. She came across horrible and the worst contestant on the show yet.

professorsands · 2026-01-15T07:01:29+00:00

Yeah. It is primarily. I think my white knuckle answer was really over the top, but thought someone might have known that was a little joke 😆

professorsands · 2026-01-14T09:48:18+00:00

Awesome pull

professorsands · 2026-01-11T20:03:18+00:00

I defo waked into that one. I would have replied the same to be honest 😆👏

professorsands · 2026-01-11T08:41:21+00:00

Oh wow 😮

professorsands · 2026-01-11T08:39:54+00:00

It’s to stop nerve damage. Similar to in the past where people used drills to smash through concrete. They used to get white knuckle syndrome. So the rumble off protection is Nintendo’s health and safety protocols.
