  1. I'm not planing on entering politics, so my answer will have no bearing on anything. I just think that the state is part of evolution and part of nature, it's not some evil controlling thing. If a person gets cancer - that's nature being evil and controlling - a state educated radiographer may help find the lump so it can be zapped or removed, but a privately educated radiographer would do just as good a job without ripping off hard working tax payers?
  2. It seems the Stainless Steel Association came into being after a discovery made during state funded warfare - that doesn't mean that unbridled free marketeers (not necessarily anarchists) couldn't have made the same discovery under different circumstances In 1913, Harry Brearley of Sheffield, UK discovered ‘rustless’ steel. Although there had been many prior attempts, Brearley has been credited with inventing the first true stainless steel, which had a 12.8% chromium content. He had added chromium to molten iron to produce a metal that did not rust. Chromium is a key ingredient, as it provides the resistance to corrosion. After this discovery, Sheffield itself became synonymous with steel and metallurgy. Brearley stumbled upon this discovery while trying to solve the problem of erosion of the internal surfaces of gun barrels for the British army during the onset of the First World War.
  3. So with a state, there is at least a chance some kids from poor backgrounds can get an education, but without a state only those kids whose parents can make enough down the liberated mines can go to private Uni
  4. you've said you went to Uni - so how does that happen without a state? - Who pays for it if we can't starve illegal miners to protect tax revenues?
  5. my first step would be trying to suss out how to best kill a mature plant with chemicals, maybe eco plugs drilled in near the base? Would it not be quicker to leave them standing until dead and go through and poison as many as funds permit, so they don't set anymore seed? Edit - always best to google before posting a question, seems it's not the silver bullet I was imagining Efficacy of Ecoplugs on RhododendronControl is likely to be as good as, but no better than, conventional sprays of liquid glyphosate, and in both cases, repeat visits to control regrowth will almost certainly still be required.
  6. at least it's not a triffid UK’s first glyphosate-resistant weed found on Kent farm | Herbicides | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM Scientist says case is warning for farmers to reduce reliance on controversial and common herbicide
  7. I was joking of course, but like this
  8. if there is no restriction on height on the trailer it would be feasible (although not necessarily plausible to drive the loader on top of the chipper on ramps like on a car transporter
  9. Billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban has taken a subtle yet sharp swipe at Tesla CEO Elon Musk over his call for more uplifting content on X, formerly known as Twitter. Musk, who owns the platform, tweeted on Sunday: “Please post a bit more positive, beautiful or informative content on this platform.” In response, Cuban retorted with a succinct “You first,” leaving users chuckling at the pointed jab.
  10. hopefully when the cash bungs reach a critical mass, Reform can set up a naval blockade and buy up some Kent farmland to build a new airport - straight out of the water and onto the plane, no processing required. But what about those who deliberately throw their passports away? Maybe a roullette wheel divided into a few suitable holding territories. The second coming of Christ may never happen, but Nigel is real and already here. He can lead us out of the darkness, for the bargain price of £25
  11. there's only one person who can stop them - it's no coincidence the initials of Nigel Farage and National Front are the same
  12. that's what I thought if you could find one cheap enough and do away with tracks, or if possible look at one and see how they made hopper removable, would mean making up electrical connectors etc
  13. the old TW150VTR tracked machines had a removable hopper, for narrow access, an arrangement like that would make it shorter in the trailer
  14. ^ quite a funny clip, agro going on and misidentification x.com X.COM
  15. that one on streetview looks like a series of crown lifts over the years too - to keep it growing in too small a spot, making it top heavy
