Me too. I did use a suburban rail service nine years ago, but that was the first time I'd been on the railways for over 50 years! But we do need better and cheaper rail services for a number of reasons: Cheap and good rail services will get more people using them instead of clogging the...

Of course, but the taxpayer paid far, far less subsidy to British Rail than now to the private rail companies. Hence nationalising to save the taxpayer money every year and get cheaper standardised fares I'd rather see the hugely wasteful NHS put in order before throwing any more money at it...

Because it was far cheaper to run under British Rail, and actually had timetables that worked. It wasn't very good of course, just as it's far from good now, but that is in the nature of much of what we do, so we might as well just choose the money saving option. .

Nice one, showing the Nigel original image with his red spotted tie, and the red handkerchief in Kassam's pocket. .

In digital imagery there is no one truth of perception. There is only one truth of perception per device and its state, as Fingers acknowledges by his use of Avid to correct perceived images. .

I suspect we may be at cross purposes. I am not arguing that the red spots seen on my monitor are correct, it's quite likely they are not on the moderate cost uncalibrated system I'm using. But they are red and you would also see them as red on my monitor, however wrong it might be. If you...

As little as possible, just enough to allow the rotor to not touch the sensor. The rotor disc has a ring of small magnets and the Hall sensor needs to pick up each weak magnetic pulse as it passes. With rotation sensed by pedalling away, power is activated if the system is operational. .

I see six of the Change UK MPs have left the party, probably about to bring it to an end. Could hold the record for the shortest lived party ever. .

No we aren't. The image at source is one, the image we are viewing on our different devices is what each device displays and can vary wildly according to the colour rendition of each. As a media man you really should know that. .

No, not a design fault, external rotation sensors are commonplace, but they have the disadvantage that mishandling can displace the sensor, preventing it reading correctly. That's very common. If you post as Neale has said, we'll be able to check that for you. .

As Neale says. Seago make the point of saying the rotation sensing on the current model has been integrated into the crank, so yours is probably external. .

Nonsense, if I could see your screen I'd say what it was showing you, just as I would with what 50Hertz's screen is showing him. As usual you are just looking for an argument based on an unsound foundation. .

Illustrates my point about device colour rendition, I can't get remotely close to that. Reducing brightness gets down towards a brown. .

I thought you didn't want to make a thing about this? There is nothing wrong with my colour vision, but something wrong with your knowledge if you don't understand how variably different devices present screen colours. As I said it's unimportant, especially since it's no doubt a doctored image...

My monitor shows red spots, but it's totally unimportant of course. I'll leave it to everyone what colours they see on whatever screen they are viewing it on. .

Both are right, I looked at the spots, not the pink background. .

The ties are a bit confusing. Nigel wearing red, very emblematic of Russia, while the Russian Ambassador appears to be a supporter of the LibDems. :confused: .

The record that I've posted shows that Sadiq Khan is very far from being a loser. On the contrary he's been very successful, not that the right wing media would ever concede that truth. Instead they'd rather distort with false stories. For example they say Sadiq flies a balloon effigy of...

But not so clear cut, VC's success was just in getting the Remain vote for the European election. Watch it disappear in a GE. Given a five year chance, Corbyn would re-nationalise rail and water, both very widely popular measures. Cable and the LibDems given power would cancel Brexit...

Now that is just silly, society has its uniforms appropriate to occasions. Of course you would never see that, any more than you'd see someone in a jump suit at a royal garden party. .
