    Faulty Quest 3's

    Could it be the same as what is described in this thread? https://communityforums.atmeta.com/t5/Get-Help/PTC-v56-57-Flashing-white-colored-pixel-artifact-problem/td-p/1065710/page/35 Been a problem for me on my Q2 for ages and seems to affect the Q pro and Q3 too. Shocking that forced updates...

    Emilia Romagna Grand Prix 2021, Imola - Race 2/23

    Clearly that's not the case. Hamilton is the best because he wins all the time, so that means that Bottas is currently the second best driver because he's finished runner up for the last two seasons, which was definitely, definitely nothing to do with the car he's in.

    This is what a scalper looks like..

    I think we should all start scalping the already scalped cards. Just imagine the money we could make if we can clear out ebay of £2000 3080's and sell them ourselves for £4000. We could move on to other things like cars once we have enough money. Then it could be flats and houses. People will be...

    He worked 3 jobs because it allowed him more flexibility to travel with Lewis. https://thenetline.com/everything-we-know-about-lewis-hamilton-parents/ "Motorsport is not a cheap sport, and for a while, Anthony managed to support Lewis with the salary he earned as an information technology...

    Time travel

    Okay, skateboard it is. Then a halfpipe. See how quick them folk can build a fire when they see me perform an aerial 720.

    Maybe some sort of chain drive perhaps? Invent the bicycle?

    Is "affordable housing" a red herring when it comes to roughsleepers?

    They need to stop people hoarding houses. My next door neighbour already had 11 houses when he moved in 9 years ago. He asked all the local estate agents to give him first refusal when cheap places come up. The likes of him are literally taking affordable houses away from people so they can...

    What is the legaility of rebuidling a 'scrapped' car?

    Only the empty bodyshell went to scrap. A lot of the mechanical parts went into my kit car which is in my garage. I still some minor bits and bobs from it in the back of a shed. Probably no use now, but they are there.

    What is the legaility of rebuidling a 'scrapped' car?

    Hmm, thanks for that info sovietspybob. That was my thinking. I've seen many Escorts that really would only be worth buying to get your hands on the documentation as they've been not much more than a pile of holes surrounded by rust. I still have the front suspension as that was used on my kit...

    What is the legaility of rebuidling a 'scrapped' car?

    I want to get MY logbook for MY car and rebuild it. I do still have the kit car, so I could transfer the parts I used from the Escort to build that, onto a "replacement" Escort bodyshell. Some of the car would be original. I also have the rear window, the rear axle and parts of the dash from the...

    What is the legaility of rebuidling a 'scrapped' car?

    Back in 1987 I acquired a MK1 2 door 1300GT Ford Escort. I never actually used it on the road, so never taxed it. I just learned to drive in it it around my grandparents smallholding. A few year later I stripped it for parts for a kit car. My cousin had most of the interior so there was little...

    Automation taking over will never happen, keeping everyone in work is the easiest way of controlling a population. If automation does happen, look out for more 'busy work' type jobs being created.

    War of the Worlds

    They've literally got one of the best sci fi stories ever already written for them, the hard bit is done. Yet everyone who tries to transfer it to film or TV, has to tinker with it. Just make as how it's written in the book.

    Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2019, Yas Island - Race 21/21

    I think DRS has done more harm than good to the action. All it does is help the faster cars out. I'd rather watch them have to plan a move and fight for position than just breeze past on a straight. There's been a couple of races this year where a Mclaren have been well up in the points with no...

    ****Star Wars: Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker - Official Thread****

    However bad 1-3 were, at least they had a story arc. The current trilogy are just sequences of set pieces with the same people in, to fool us into thinking we're watching the same story. There's just no setup for this finale aside from what they can pull from thin air at the last minute. I...

    Land of hope & glory

    I worked with a guy who had worked at an abattoir previously. He said any talk of humane killing is rubbish. He reckoned that you could smell the fear from the animals and they were very distressed. His job was to make sure cows were dead after being shot in the head with a bolt. He had to push...
