Agreed, she is a disastrous product of the fast track campaign to recruit officers from university and give them accelerated promotion. As one of them she was in charge of the bungled operation that led to innocent electrician Jean-Charles Menezes to be murdered by a Met Police officer who...

Yes indeed, and in dietary terms chestnuts make a fair potato substitute too: Chestnuts: 5% protein, 10% fat, 25% carbohydrate, the rest water. Potatoes: 5% fat, 10% protein, 25% carbohydrate, the rest water. A near enough match. .

Teaching granny to suck eggs again! Specific knowledge is necessary. Certainly some nuts like peanuts contain over 75% fat, but on the other hand chestnuts contain just 10% fat, being mostly carbohydrate (25%) and water. And I don't need Google for such knowledge, I already have it. .

All my posts have that additional full stop at the end. It's to make them stand out over the extra space at the bottom since they are clearly the most important posts being made in this forum. ;) Since that full stop is standard to every post I make, I can start with it and then fill in the...

They are right that the system was grossly overhyped as level five originally (fully independent driving capability), but Elon Musk has changed his tune since then. The papers he submitted to the US department of transport earlier this year only claimed it was level 2 (limited driver assistance). .

Two quotes, then filled in. .

No it's none of the religious claptrap, just simple rational factual thought. .

The no full stop was deliberate to emphasise my point. .

Sounds like the Type 45 anti missile destroyer:

Many in here believe the same, but I totally disagree. Life is only worthwhile if it has quality, a life without quality is worthless. For nearly 14 billion years before I was born I didn't exist. For at least 5 billion years after I die I won't exist. I've never lost a moments sleep...

Another on autopilot has already killed a cyclist in the USA, being unable to recognise a bicycle side on, yet another beheaded it's driver when on autopilot by driving under the the trailer part of an artic as that crossed a road. .

There's a world of difference, Chinese buy ins, often with quickly invented brand names, which may only be briefly on the market, hence no reviews. They have small capacity 24 volt systems, limited performance and short range. The Woosh bikes I linked to are 36 volt, much higher capacity and...

It needs to be very close to work correctly. .

That budget is very tight for a decent e-bike from a reliable supplier, especially with the shortage of supply at present. I suggest: Woosh Rambletta from £999 or Woosh Santana 3 from £1229 .

You make far too many assumptions, my mood is excellent and my life happy and engaged as my humorous posts show and I'd be happy to live a capable life for longer. But I'm a rational person so have no desire to have a difficult and struggling extension to life, perhaps stuck in a care home. As...

As I posted, MAY not be suitable. Eventually it can become pointless anyway, as in the 91 year old who had the operation and recovered successfully, only to die months after of old age. You are clearly wrong, as proven in family after family. One can certainly shorten ones inherited...

No point, the great majority of the stuff about foods good for health etc is complete bunkum. There's just a few basic facts for the avoidance of disease, but that's all. Once one is living healthily the determinant of one's lifespan is purely one's genetic inheritance. I'm fortunate in...

There are very strict limits and the shortage of moorings is big problem, especially residential ones. Barges that come with a residential mooring often sell at grossly inflated prices. .

At 85 now it will be a medical miracle if I make 90. How I was on Monday at one point I had little confidence of making next week. .
