    My most horrible food mistake so far...

    Yes why even a carnivore would eat the internals from some animal is truly horrific, but at the same time people eat chicken feet, that is just as weird.

    US Election November 5th

    Keir will need to sack Lammy if he wants any chance of building bridges with the new American government. Did anyone really think Harris actually stood a realistic chance, I think the Americans like the underdog and all those legal challenges against him just handed him more supporters and...

    A potential scam ?

    I think we have cornered some scammers, too much that rings alarm bells and selling a non Chinese product. The address just seems odd, The post code format is wrong, normally 3, 3 and then you get but 94 Alfreton Rd is So too cheap to be true is true.

    A potential scam ?

    Probably why they are not actually offering that service. Looks like my uneasiness was justified, will run.

    Another Ban on the way?

    and we seem to ignore that fact tidal energy could be a huge source of power but instead we have windfarms at sea which Ok are better than on land. The guys who recently fitted our woodburner are fully booked till 2026 and 2024 was one of there busiest years. Also it seems the manufacturers...

    But in context they need work to survive, I do believe China has built roads and schools in some of these countries and digging Cobalt is a lot safer than Uranium.

    Lets all remain civil and respect others views please. When I think of Cobalt I think of it's use in alloys of steel for cutting tools, but it was used in batteries for electrodes which I now believe are moving to Silicon electrodes. Also is battery technology not moving away from NCM to...

    Another Ban on the way?

    We have a welsh hydro plant that does that for us to pump up the system if there is a sudden demand.

    Another Ban on the way?

    That will upset a few chefs, gas hobs and electric ovens seems to be the norm.

    Another Ban on the way?

    Not easy to store huge amounts of power, imagine a battery bank capable of supplying just a few mega watts and yet an average town will use far more. The real solution is to cut the demand not try and keep matching what people want.

    Providing that the wind is blowing or the sun is out otherwise start your generator.

    Another Ban on the way?

    That should be easy to validate, there were far more open fires and woodburners going back so was there also a much higher rate of death ? Most people born prior to the 70's would have lived in homes heated by open fires, woodburners and things like the park ray that used those shaped coal...

    Solid wood furniture board (not pine)

    Those boards, they say "Unlike oak these boards are not heavy and so are easy to handle and cut." so are they a laminate or what ? They do look good for a furniture application though.

    I saw this on some channel from America, I think it was about getting a cheaper truck but retaining the mileage ability.

    Is this a Router Option A, or is this a Router Option B ?

    Nothing like a length of cable, that can easily pass through a wall if there is a hole ! This is the same as to get the right answer you need to ask the right question.

    That could be said of the original diesels that lasted forever but now with the modern diesel using electronic engine management with a Diesel Particulate Filter they are very clean in comparison. In theory a big electric motor can deliver the torque required by vehicles that currently need a...

    US Election November 5th

    They saw things and because they were different and had a different society just decided that they could not work together and the west has the same attitude to China today. But the west had already shut the door and made there minds up, trust between them just went down hill.

    Alternative joining method

    That is modern life, look for the easy way even if it will initially be more expensive rather than learn a way of old. I also believe excessive smart phone usage results in an attention span of a goldfish so having to actually do any form of manual work becomes tedious and learning difficult...
