  • The guy at work was mentioning immigrants and hotels today, I use him as a baseline as to what the sheep in society are thinking. He’s now actually blaming the previous conservative government and labour for the mess we are in., instead of just the labour government. It’ll be interesting if I hear about this tomorrow



  • A cup as a unit of measure is based on volume, which is fine if you want like 2 cups flour and 1 cup water. But how big is a cup? Is the ingredient packed in there or loose filled? How big of a cake will it produce 1kg 2kg?

    Turns out it’s 8 fluid ounces, which is different depending on if you use imperial or US imperial. Then you find out that some US regulation defines a common household fluid ounce as exactly 30ml.







  • With my cheap over night tarrif (UK) I pay approximately 2p a mile, I’m planning a road trip to Europe soon and have calculated with a pay for discount EV charge card, I’ll average about 14p/mile. I’m saving between £60-£80 a month compared to my old diesel car, which pays off the charger install ~£900 in a year. Diesel price have dropped in the UK since I got mine.

    For servicing it’s coolant every 3 years or so, and that pretty much it. We have a MOT in the UK, for every vehicle over 3 years old, then yearly, that covers more than what is needed on the yearly services for my car. Only thing it doesn’t cover is lubricate the charge port, but I think I’m ok with that

    Also the cabin noise is almost silent, no gears, constant predictable acceleration, and I can plug anything I want in to the 240v outlet in the back seat
