  1. Past hour
  2. Oh yes -a 3D printed stiff-one, that sounds like a winner now, especially for those older climbers amongst us... Is anyone offering to model the prototype? Perhaps Kram or Alex might patent it: The Handy Stiffy Mk1 😆 Sorry, I'll get my coat now..
  3. From the comment I remember reading, might have missed something in between the million posts you put up. BillQs comment was factually correct. BillQs comment was not expressing an opinion either way. I reckon that is another apology you owe him today. Idiot.
  4. Not AI related but the help yourself tills are a game, usual routine for me is the -usually a lady- (ladies don't get shouted at or the agro that men get) has to pop over once or twice a shop. I once managed to get the whole till to shut down, go off line and show the 'Windows' screen (not sure exactly how, wish I could remember what I did). If the lady isn't there with the fob, I'll just leave that till 'broken' and move to the next one (saw the shop staff run out the shop for a shoplifter, check the cameras and realise the 'shoplifter' was just doing his shopping at a till that was working right. Yup, I know a few of the supermarket staff just because I'll ask them how their days were - trolley man who does saloon car racing, shelf stacker whose having a slow breakdown, other one whose boy is in the police - embarrasses The Boys "Dad how do you know them" "I don't, I just chat with them". AI won't do that. On topic of course, AI will have to cope with the grumpy old child in me who loves to work out how to break the machines.
  5. Well yes, maybe its crap when compared to a bigger tracked 6'' Forst/Jensen/Timber wolf/Greenmech etc However -it's smaller, lighter, suitable for those awkward little 'back garden' type jobs -and significantly, it costs a fraction of the others listed.. I don't suppose it'll last 25 years like my current Cramer and Timber wolf, but hey, horses for courses !
  6. Excess number of biner holes and detachable swivels. No. Too much fannying shite. No. Midline attachable and simply just works for SRT and DRT without compromise. Yes. We don't need loads of competing whizzbang bling. We need one thing that just works.

    Cambium Savers

    Not had any issues of them getting stuck, mostly pull them from the ground unless its a tight union. The steel ringed saver needs a bit of thought before pulling as it would hurt.
  8. I would bend some 4mm dia steel bar in a loose basket hitch type shape to fit the handle which will become the strength/reinforcement, followed by the attachement ring. Weld a plate on either side so that it can be bolted up with a thumb screw or similar. Use rubber sheet/3d printed part to make it a nice fit on the handle. I'd probably have the attachment ring to pivot on the plate, if it were for me, but your you want it fixed and stiff.
  9. Nobody's ever said that exact sentence before.
  10. The nipping arsehole style kitchen towel holder that the nice young man with the majestic hair on instagram uses?
  11. That's a beautiful turn of phrase! Sorry about your stabbing. I was about to start typing about how it doesn't alter my view and why but Mike's rather ruined any notion I had today of improving the world through dialogue.
  12. So I tried a welded addition/modification to the metal ring that's supplied with the standard saw lanyard, to try and hold the ring at 90° to lanyard. I think it might work, with some more dabbling, but too busy to sort it, currently. I also noticed on Sorbus marketing photos a rigid alloy-looking ring, that fitted onto the rear attachment point of a top handled Sthil saw. However, I couldn't find this on their website anywhere ? It looked useful. I think the clip on your dcs2500 is the gold standard, tho. I've put a screen shot up of something like the Sorbus device.
  13. On technology cheapening the human experience generally: Plus they're a good band.
  14. Today
  15. Detachable swivel so you can run it straight through your bridge is a great idea
  16. The lass who fixed mine was at the end of her tether. A woman her size wants a less stressful job too I'd suggest... I used one in a different shop this evening because the girl perched on a chair by them has a bad back and I didn't want to make her traipse round to a till for just one thing. How do I know she has a bad back? I talk to people in shops like a human. Her daughter is on a CAD drafting apprenticeship. Her partner has a recovery truck. She remarked she hadn't seen me in for a couple of weeks. A very unimportant, minor and fleeting but nevertheless human exchange. The sort I'll miss when everything is two lonely people staring at each other through pixellated glass.
  17. Right o. No idea where I got automotive from then.
  18. I had the usual frustrating self service till episode earlier. This one was particularly fcking hair tearing. There must have been one person who felt it even more than me. That was the poor woman who had to keep coming over to flash her magic fob at it, getting on for 10 times. The people they employ to do that job must go through a hardcore selection process, to weed out all but those with the most superhuman of patience. Imagine doing that for 8 hours a day, without screaming at someone? Soul destroying. I'm sure they'd rather be manually scanning stuff through on proper tills. At least they get to judge all the punters on what they've bought.
  19. Lot less than blackbird though.
  20. BASIC, Pascal, HTML, Lingo, ActionScript, Ruby on Rails. Fell out of love with pixels and picked up a chainsaw.
  21. Wordle 1,600 3/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛🟨 🟨🟩🟨🟨⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 and sweet .
  22. My opinion is you can't make a proper assessment from photos, you need someone qualified to have a look and write a report. Some opinions off the internet won't sway the council anyway.
  23. It's completely crap either way? Otherwise would be the only chipper in the world where doubling hp makes no difference.
