    I’ve done some good ones around me (NL)

    @Walibi: Xpress: Platform 13 – excellent experience just after you get in the park, I genuinely wasn’t sure if it was a ride or not and the acceleration is pretty stunning.

    @Walibi: Goliath and Condor – huge and twisty

    @Efteling: Baron 1898 – the mist filling the underground entrance combined with being on the front row was terrifying, my body was convinced I was going to get crushed by the impact.

    @Efteling: Joris en de Draak -beautiful wooden coaster that shakes you up plenty.

    Next one on my nearly-hit list

    VLC Plays FLAC and is probably less full of crud than many other apps.

    >The end plate just pinged off

    Just to check, many chain tools have a spread as well as a break position and you were using the break position, right?

    >reading a review of a fuel cell

    If it’s that shitty Brunton thing that looks like a Dyson washing machine then it’s a gimmick mate, not proper engineering and performs accordingly.

    We did this topic recently and got some feedback from a guy who made maps. The TL;DR was it might give you better figures, but the hidden cost was emissions went through the roof.

    My update is: I obtained a larger tin.

    Still works well, though I should try some beeswax.

    Wax is a godsend in the sandy conditions!

    Hey,
    It would be useful if you specified which Etrex it is!

    Sadly I’m not at my machine right now, and I do always forget how to do this exactly, but I’m pretty sure I need to use the Garmin software to upload the file.

    Going to order a MiniDSP later today to use as a digital crossover. It going to be taking PCM stereo SPDIF in and needs to output either 1 SPDIF with a 6-channel encode for my amp’s internal DAC, or, I could use a DSP that outputs 6 analogue and just use the amp as a Poweramp alone.

    The choices for the DSP are still a little confusing… I want to keep the audio quality at 100%, obviously, and some formats sounds better than others. The Amp is Rev2 CA Azure 540r, and I was planning to use DTS audio out from the DSP…. If possible.

    Anyone got any experience or thoughts about how to do this?

    Thanks peeps! And thanks also for the offers.

    I can now confirm that 40 and 35mm will both work, as turns out that was what was in there! Settled on a pair of 50mm that damn near met in the middle :)

    Hey thanks for that.

    The projector is secondhand, looks in very good condition. I’m fairly familiar with quality home projection, but I have no way of comparing to an Epson office jobbie.

    Fixed zoom is annoying, but I figure that putting it on the roof closer to a screen would be less intrusive than having to install it in the middle of the ceiling.

    Where are you getting DLP’s from at 50 quid a pop, what models are they, and can I have one?

    I’m not in my own 30th birthday Polaroid. Akbars in Bradford, the staff took it from the end of the table and every inch of me is just behind another person’s arm etc…

    Outlook search is currently well b0rked for many people.

    W10 search is generally very fragile, mines never worked since I messed with the default settings.

    Simply make them feel guilty for doing so. Problem solved (though you may have difficulty getting an elevator to go where you ask).

    (While driving myself, Saturday)

    Wanna fight?
    And
    You don’t decide for me how I should drive!

    Overtook me from directly behind into an equal priority junction, single lane road, as we both turned right.

    >getting second-hand turntable circa 1980’s

    Seems a reasonable idea, I quite enjoyed my Sanyo SR222 before my Planar

    No, you need to apply perspective compensation for that image.

    Should work ok. I also suggest a few more gentle stops first with aome water on the discs to transfer a bit of pad to them, like you’d use TCut then polish it off.

    Similar to my home machine, but beware non standard PSU etc, repairs in the future would be costly. Also postage charges? Why not just order a modern build with an ATX case and nice new bits, pretty sure you could get a similar spec, or better for that price.

    >Are these processors better?

    Why on earth are you looking at those?? That’s 1366/1155 stuff, from ’09-’10!

    No, don’t buy those chips unless you have the motherboard and RAM etc already. Your Q series is DDR2, so neither of those are going to be transferrable. Some of those chips can still kick, but you need a good overlocking motherboard of the era and that’s about £150. They’re all waay behind the current crop of CPUs though, as long as you compare to a modern quadcore or better.

    If you’re building a new machine now on a budget, go AMD Ryzen. There’s motherboard, RAM and CPU bundles at very sharp prices right now online, like at scan or ebuyer.

    I understand it, the reason Rapid Demise was so maligned was the association with shitty plastic Rapid Rise rear mechs. They often came on BSO’s and thus were badly adjusted, fettled or even on the end of a wonky hanger. And with limit screws hitting plastic protrusions, it’s not long before it’s in your spokes too.

    Technically, it’s a better system- you have a spring moving the mech towards the larger sprocket, so the pressure of the chain against the side/teeth/ramp can be exactly “correct” thus you are able to get the best shift possible. Additionally, the spring force is constant.

    Whereas IRL, with conventional shift the user is likely to exert the wrong pressure and vary it over time. They may not, for example, be exerting the shift force at the right time to align with a ramp.

    Dual control I know nowt about.

    Always amazed at how meaty some hover flies can be!

    While they drink only nectar adults, check out what their larvae eat….

    In my case it seems that the combination of the quality of the sight changing very slowly plus the ability of the eye muscles and brain to compensate had crept up on me, I feel much less tired in the eyes already!

    Well, seeing as you mention it…

    I do see the Preview button, with a grey boarder that don’t match the Submit button and an interesting asymmetric darker grey box around it.

    The Preview button is also below some text, itself below the Submit. In terms of clarity of user interface, it’s a bit shit, no?

    Why not put them next to each other? Then there’s a better chance of people seeing and using it!
