From memory, I think the road bends just before the gates so if you missed the bend you would end up driving into the gates.

Incidentally, the grounds are surrounded by an anti tank fence made out of old railway line yet there is a public footpath through the grounds across the driveway.

It might be that the default for Windows is to sleep rather than do a full shutdown. Whenever Linux looks at a Windows partition it looks corrupted. When windows starts up again it’s inconsistent as some of the data was in the sleep image.

Car engine injector cleaner and almost any add-it-yourself fuel additive.

I don’t know how valid this is, but I heard county and district councils use government bonds to secure more favourable loan terms. When Liz Truss upset the UK bond market the cost of borrowing rose as the value of their bond assets dropped. The county council where I live is now spending as much on servicing debt as it is on fixing roads. (Roads, although not the most important responsibility of local government, are a visible indicator of their capability.)

It looks a bit fancy but it was common for muskets to be used as clubs when they’d been fired and there was no time to reload. I guess bayonets are the modern variant of this idea.

I’ve given the 3x noodles a go. Although banning them seems ridiculous, in the words of Big Clive, “why do they even say chicken” https://youtu.be/FH5vp-VyZFU “So spicy they’re banned in Denmark” would look good on the packet though.

This billionaire, rather than trying to wing-it and design his own submarine, is enlisting the services of a company that has already designed, built, and used a number of record setting deep-sea manned submarines.

This seems like a playbook answer to a question about a subject that’s of little immediate importance to his administration, but of some importance to a minority in both Argentina and Britain. Basically saying to his electorate “we haven’t forgotten” and to Britain “we’re not going to do anything”.

AM radio costs nothing to implement, that’s not why it’s absent from me cars. Many modern cars use some form of brushless motor in the power train. The inverters for these motors work at a frequency that interferes with AM radio reception at close range. Manufacturers can add it back to cars (probably by an over the air software update as many radios are SDR), but it’ll just pick up whistling when the car’s moving.

Under 3 minutes? What’s the rush, these are forever chemicals, they’ve got all the time in the world.

Soviet maps of the UK are redrawn versions of maps from uk publishers (Ordinance Survey). This was discovered from identical locations of height measurements. Who did they copy here?

Ordinance Survey attempted to sue the publishers of the Soviet maps for copyright violation. They were still selling the maps after the fall of the Soviet Union.

Browsers made the Internet usable for the general population. The Internet as we know it would have remained a network for academia, governments and large corporations. Smartphones would not have been developed. Without a reason for everyone’s homes to be connected to a high speed network, TV would remain the remit of cable and satellite broadcasting - no streaming services.

From this photo, this woman looks like the baddie from Men In Black 2.

Is there A Docker image that will test and report if any of the weaknesses listed are present in the host?

I went to uni in the mid 90s when Y2K prep was all the rage, went back to do another degree 20 years later. It was interesting to see the graffiti in the CS toilets. Two digits up to about 1996, four digits for a decade, then back to two.

About 10 years ago they provided medical data from the samples. I used 23 And Me too confirm that a health problem I’d recently been diagnosed with was hereditary. At the time I remember being asked if my sample could be used to aid the type of research the OP talks about and I agreed to it.

A couple of years ago, I think 23 And Me was bought out by Virgin Healthcare, at that point I asked them to destroy all my data was worried about it being used to increase the cost of or preclude health insurance.

The robot uprising has begun.

For me it’s good, let’s me leave emails on the server so my desktop can read them too. Let’s me reply below or above and compose in ascii. Doesn’t impose ways of working I don’t want.

It’s amazing how that meteorite hit exactly in the middle of that crater.

I’m not sure about the quality of the welding near the waterline.
