  1. I have the foam filled (high voltage) Jameson utility poles with a hook (branch lifter) on, using 2 x 6ft poles I anchor as high above as possible, walk out until I start struggling, then use the 12ft length of pole with hook over some side growth at least an inch or so and pull myself out and up the limb with the pole as a kind of bannister, then when Im close enough choke the lanyard, or lanyard halfway and repeat, been out on a horrible 45 ash limb to clear a summerhouse using the pole to pull myself up and miles (literally) out from stem Both hands on the poles, hand over hand
  2. All the money we spend on defence, a waste, but unthinkable what Hitler would have done if no one decided to fight. A real misguided eugenics program. There doesn't seem any way out, as Iran have learned - the country with the biggest budget is the best killer
  3. I don't see the point of us doing what Finland do - Russia isn't on our border. It's almost certain that the UK will be absorbed by a larger state, either before or after nuclear war, probably within the next 2000 years. We are wasting 5% of GDP just to delay the inevitable.
  4. trouble is the top bit goes into space and comes down in multiple glide vehicles - deepthroat required
  5. the Honda information sheet I linked to doesn't say about reseting the gaps when warm, it just says If adjustment is necessary, proceed as follows: a. Hold the rocker arm pivot and loosen the rocker arm pivot lock nut. b. Turn the rocker arm pivot to obtain the specified clearance. c. Retighten the rocker arm pivot lock nut while holding the rocker arm pivot. TORQUE: 10 N·m (1.0 kgf·m, 7 lbt·ft) d. Recheck valve clearance after tightening the rocker arm pivot lock nut. Not sure if this reseting on a warm engine is the right thing to do? Anyway, at least it's running.
  6. What is the most stressful job to have? Working at the Jobcentre - coz even if you get sacked you still have to go in the next day.
  7. It's basically putting pressure on Zelensky to make a deal - a third of Ukraine probably. The West wasn't prepared to shed blood over this, only give up some supplies
  8. I didn't realize some (of Epstein's alleged) were as young as 12, I've heard the saying 'if it's thatched move in', but 12 is pushing it. I thought they were like 16, 17 year old girls who Maxwell was recruiting? And also that the whole thing was openly transactional, as one of the 'victims' said Maxwell asked her 'do you know any girls who are kind of slutty?'
  9. I'm no fan of Trump's, but I dont think his association with Epstein is all that bad, not in comparison to supplying Israel with enough armaments to be unstoppable by all the Arab peoples. Child sex trafficking - they werent pre-pubescent kids. No worse than Berlusconi shagging Ruby the heart stealer.
  10. maybe there is something on the recoil and starter cup, like in link diagram https://cf.hondappsv.com/files/OP/OP000148VNM/2010_11_08 General GX240_270_340_390 Engine Adjustment Infor.pdf
  11. trouble with pedestrian 'walk behind' grinders the engine is getting further from level the deeper you grind. Ebay sometimes has some Raycos and Carltons 'new engine fitted' A 350cc two stroke liquid cooled grinder using a Yamaha RD350 lump
  12. you are suggesting Reform will cause everyone to suffer more than the greens, liberals, labour, cons I wouldnt blame Farage for collapse if he could finally repel - remember it would be a 'collapse' down from a very high level. We are not talking about a collapse down to Sudan standards, if there was one.
  13. If Farage got in and said 'right another £500 per year tax on all people with income, workers, pensioners the lot - use this extra money to stop the invasion, Navy style'. I would happily learn to love my collapsing standard of living, just to get rid of these invaders. The small boats can't penetrate a wall of grey steel armed with radar. All Navy vessels to the channel and all leave cancelled until further notice
  14. right wing left wing centrist none of them can save us the only hope is space aliens if they dont come in time, we're doomed
  15. yeah but if you've ever seen them trim their own hedges - they never put a sheet down
  16. From the Telegraph, not the Guardian - describing Trump as a 'Russian asset'
  17. this is so interesting to me, the sheer complexity of what's involved. So yes a human will usually at least aknowledge that people are questioning their authenticity. So it knew enough to be selective and only quote Dalton trees post, just replying to that? Without being a time served bladerunner it's easy to get confused. I do however completely disagree with what Steven P has said - my take is AI will still be an emerging technology in a hundred years, but long before then it will write a good novel and like the top novel from NYTs best novels of the century, be under a pseudonym - with people speculating if its a man or woman author. Steven P says it doesnt have any intelligence, but I'm thinking he wishes it did't.
  18. and now the OP has posted again we gain a deep look inside the workings of the machine advice - fell
  19. ok, thanks for reply, although google reverse image search of the complete pic by cul de sac or road gives only the arbtalk as exact match. It may be something that is learning, as if Id asked a question I would have probably checked the site for a day or two after, even if no reply in the first few hours
  20. technical query - seeing as you mentioned you're a part time programmer. Thoughts about lack of question mark in thread title?
  21. worst fires for 50 years in France, parts of UK must be at risk too, no rain on forecast for next fortnight
  22. And people have a right to be who they are? Hmmm this bit is something cultural and not biological. Primates inc sapiens dont have rights to food water shelter poetry music - its stuff in the environment that they possibly can get if they can overcome competition and physical difficulties I agree with James Watson, except for a slight nuance, intelligence is part nature (the genes, inhereted neuronal bio computational innate ability) and part nurture (learning from others in the environment) I personally dont think blacks and brown skinned people from Asia and Africa are less well endowed than caucasians with cerebral circuitry, otherwise how did all the asians end up running Microsoft Google et al. Admittedly more Indians than golliwogs, maybe the gollies have not evolved to the same complexity as the Anglo Saxons. Even a five grand computer is useless without software. Program the jamjar golli and it will execute with the best of them
  23. this 'closer to animals' notion - surely all humans are animals? The raping and other sex crimes by migrants always gets the public's blood up, but its the cost of keeping them that I dont like. Even if no migrants ever raped, they would still be a nightmare, putting huge strain on public resources
  24. doing well, considering its been so dry
  25. quantum computing - trying to train subatomic particles to sing like the birds
