    Will it smell like bike sex juice and cause dermatitis like GT85?

    Or just stink of hemp?

    Assuming this is normal. I certainly get it when nervous, or when a chill wind blows…

    Have vivid memories of sitting on the floor for assembly at school and feeling mine tighten like a crisp packet in an oven as the role call of bus-related misdemeanours was recanted and the guilty parties told to wait for a thrashing after…

    How are you going to monitor it?

    Remarkably attentively?

    ISP ban? What you need is a Sneakernet.

    He’s talking about getting a warning.[/quote]

    And if he doesn’t stop *other people* somehow d/l’ing from his MAC/IP?

    My point is just that, for example 2TB of movies, could be copied from HD to HD in a short period of time without any ISP traffic. Win 10, however, probably reports them :P

    IIRC Compact Cassette was developed as a dictation medium, but was then jimmied to better quality.

    Pretty sure you need 7 whole turns, or, the end of the spoke visible flush with the slot cut at least.

    Edit- I’d rather have a rear wheel fold than a front one.

    If I torrented Suicide Squad, I’d be suing for compensation from the filmmakers.

    Is your login account an Admin account? I’ve had odd behaviour when installing software in a limited account, might need to reinstall, but run that installer as admin.

    Suggestion: a set of basic open earbuds with foam covers. Less wind noise means you can turn the volume down and then you can hear the outside OK too. Pretty sure two buds will help you to decode what you hear more easily and therefore user a lower volume. Don’t buy the rubber plunger type.

    Our groovy guru probably understands the psychoacoustics better than me though.

    I’d be surprised if you can’t do that in software?

    I have, you’re waiting for your experiment results.

    My point is that without changing anything, I seem to be logged out more often.

    Strongly recommend diesel rather than petrol. Not going to engulf you in flames if someone lights a cig down wind.

    Actually, I suggest removing as much as possible with kitchen towel, save on the amount of solvent you need to dispose of.

    Hi, my mother is an Archaeological Illustrator, based in Cornwall. If you give me some more info, I’ll try to point you in the right direction…

    I get logged out with chrome and mobile chrome.

    The frequency varies, so yes I can imagine it’s hard to pin-point.

    Nobody should go back to flash…

    Current version of chrome seems to support desktop+zoom fine.

    The Cold Swedish Winter? Certainly the first few were good, and relateable for Brit living in a foreign land.

    Three here:

    A green and white bmx with one end white and one end green and a duck’s face on the saddle. No idea of the name.

    A Gravity, aptly named as it had it’s own gravitational field.

    Many years later, a Pro Race in Reynolds 501db. Man that was a lovely frame, super smooth. Still see them being used in London, fixed, by couriers.

    DIY – one low dropout regulator, a few caps and a pair of 6-volt panels in series…. or was it parallel…. I forget. I stuck the PCB in a tiny tupperware and the panels to a sheet of cardboard set-up like a flip-phone case.

    It’s a good project and will charge a phone in a couple of hours of strong sun. Cost of parts was 7 pounds.

    Funny you should say that, a very experienced rider responded to me recommending Swissstop Blue Vbrake pads by saying their disc pads last just a few hours.

    Not really, I know a Ti Framebuilder but I am not honestly sure he’d be competitive on a repair. However the info might help other people help you.

    If you have no other good leads you can try asking Rich at Baldwin Titanium, though as mentioned, he may not be able to do it cheaply as he’s set up for whole frame builds.

    A word of caution on Dutch bikes with all possible accessories: fit/spec them very strong tyres (eg marathon plus) because taking all that crap off to get the bleeding inners off is a nightmare. While you’re at it, you may wish to ditch the Woods valves for Schrader.

    ^^^^^RE my pic – three Bali Automatic Omega fakes and a Casio Ediface, back when there was a smart one available.

    The fakes kept perfect time, but all succumbed to water ingress eventually. For $40 a pop, it was OK.
