You can do some volunteering without out degrees like with St Johns Ambulance who will give you the training to be a driver, event first aider, etc. I know a guy who volunteered as an ambulance driver who was an engineer by trade. Just as an example.

It is also frustrating when different calculators have different orders of operations and dont tell you.

For me to keep it off was the challenge. I Started by working out how much I needed to eat for maintenance, through calculators and counting my calories for a couple of weeks.

Then I just brought a small deficit of a couple hundred cals, and increased exercise; making sure to go for a walk each day, started lifting weights at the gym.

Now im halfway to my weight goal. But it was all about setting the habits and keeping them going, turning down extra cake in the office or having a smaller lunch to balance everything out, now I dont have the same cravings I used to. Its been a slow year but I am happy with it.

Cheers mate 🙂 it is good setting up the healthy habits.

Long time reader, first time commenter.

Its going fairly well for me, had a nice chat with family the other day. Ive lost about half of the weight I want to (slow and steady in a healthy way). And I think the friendly banter with a friend is getting rather friendly so will see where that goes.

Short video here more lf a summary of the paper and what it was looking at, but not in depth analysis on it.

Maybe something to experiment with like everything with minis, I find a little goes a long way. There is never a final project 😉

Its similar to that but i think they behave a bit different. Its more just making the shadows pops and giving some texture. It is completely optional and down to preferences. Example here No worries, you should be proud of them.

Look very nice, this on a resin printer? Personally to give them a bit of depth id give them a coat with a wash they will really pop then. But there are definitely table ready. Have fun 😉

Glad to know I’m not the only one doing the stupid government mental health walk for my mental health that stupidity works 😂.

Your curtains/blinds can insulate the room but you get less light. Maybe also try some foil or radiator reflectors to bounce the heat away from the wall and into the room. Personally I get really comfortable under a fluffy blanket with a teapot next to me. But I like the cold over the heat.

There is a thing called Coppicing or National Trust Link where the stump shoots off and grows new trunks from there. Its not exactly the same and some trees are better suited for it than others.

It is the purpose of the MOXIE unit, which they had proved a small amount from back in 2021. OG press release

Imagine the backlash and congestion if they did that.

True, tax is probably not the best word hence the “”, fine is better, or just charge.

The UK has one of the highest numbers of surveillance cameras per person, this is just a fact of life that people are used to. The ULEZ cameras are typically ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition), the government already know what cars you own and how polluting they are. You can’t deny that these low emission zones are decreasing air pollution and London needs it. The attacks on the cameras are because they are adding surveillance but because it is £12.50p per day if your car does not meet standards so is an added “tax” for living in London which is being forced on the local councils with little thought for the individual circumstance.

There is a Channel 4 show a while ago called Hunted which mimics the levels of surveillance the police have to track contestants down, it is both scary and interesting how much they can work out and track down.

Right here, will spend way to long writing a vba macro when i could have done it without quicker 😂

There are many nights of Civ 4 that I will not get bank, definitely worth it though.

The main one is the resin that is bring used, that will have a shelf life like paint or glue as the solvent will evaporate. The second one is fibre primers that are used to help the resin integrate with the Carbon Fibers can degrade and cause improper bonding between the fibres and layers. For fabrics this is normally over a year but for prepregs (where the resin already in the fibres but not set) is generally a year and will need testing for a longer shelf life.

Another issue is the storage you want a cool dry environment and covered to avoid contamination from other rolls/prepregs. Additionally the other thing that worries me is although salt water is not an issue to the fibres and resins themselves when you add metal to them the salt acts as an electrolyte and will cause galvanic corrosion “rusting” away the fasteners and causing damage to the fibres in that area.

Not to mention Carbon Fiber is best for coaxial (along the length of the tube) tension not hoop (around the tube) compressive forces. And differences in the layup and curing process can impact the viability of the final part which is why lots of places will weigh the resin and have a procedure to soak the fibres and lay them up as well as sensors to keep the pressure and temperature with a margin for curing, to keep the variability between the parts minimal.
