From my armchair, I've always felt like the engine isn't a silver bullet for success. Having your own engine and building the car around it, getting every part working in harmony and the aero just perfect is worth so much more than the best engine in a mediocre car.

But, I kind of get it.... Renault just isn't a functioning team any more and it's really sad to see. Maybe this would be a step to some better results, but long term it will probably limit their growth.

I object more to the recirculation of other people's piss water over my hands.

That is beautiful. I am now in the phase of convincing myself not to buy it even though it's obviously only going to end one way...

I've stopped using cast iron after some experimentation. It has some uses, but none of which can't be done equally well in a stainless steel or carbon steel pan.

I find these respond to temperature changes better and so are easier to control. My big iron pan also doesn't heat evenly enough, so extra care is needed to cook things consistently if it spans a wide area of the pan.

I think the best place for iron cookware is for oven pots, not for hobs and frying.

Steve Wright in the afternoon?

Doing the same now. They keep churning this shit out.

I would also like to hear the statement from the Swedish government, on this news from Switzerland.

He is such a rapper.

Noooo don't swear kmag, you will get banned again!

I think that's a massive over reaction to the general situation. There are noticeable changes taking place to undo the Tory damage to the country. He and Labor are far from perfect, but to question the point of why you would vote Labour over Tory is just insanity.

Ferrari isn't a dirty word, just because you don't like it doesn't mean you can censor people with different views.

Hello From A New Chicken Keeper (self.backyardchickens)
 

First I want to say hello, I have only 3 lovely chickens to start off with as I learn the ropes.

Secondly, my neighbours son is absolutely obsessed with the chickens. It's really nice, but he is also feeding them huge amounts of wild bird seed and I'm a little worried. There are mounds of the stuff being poured over the fence!

I have spoken to his parents nicely and asked them to stop him doing so, which they understand.

In case this doesn't get resolved quickly, is there any danger that this can cause harm to my chickens?

Any idea what this is? Many leaves are dying on the plant, wondering if there is a way to save it. I have forgotten the name of the plant, but will update when I find it.

Edit Ctenanthe Lubbersiana - thanks @squeezeyerbawdy

 

I have a dreamcatcher which I thought had a dying leaf or something, but it looks like this could be something like seeds!? There is a second pod which isn't open to the left in the picture.

I don't really know what it is but I'm excited about it. My other aglaonema hasn't grown at all in 2 years!

Anyone tuning in at all on the off weekend for F1? It's nice to see some familiar faces in the teams.

Blue Steel Convert (self.castiron)

I bought a set of three carbon steel pans, and they are amazing. Is this allowed here? They are 99% iron I think.

They are lighter than a full iron pan but you still season them in the same way.

I have had an iron pan dedicated to meat cooking for a few years now, but I'm not sure it will get much use now.

These are new pans, so I'll have to see how they last, but I'm very optimistic.

Fast food should be expensive. (self.unpopularopinion)
submitted 4 months ago by Luvs2Spuj to c/unpopularopinion
 

I get that until recently it was considered normal and relatively cheap, but you are literally paying someone else to make food for you.

It can't be sustainable without exploitation of workers and/or animal welfare to have that available to the majority of people on a regular basis.

If you can only afford fast food as a luxury, to me that seems like a good thing.

 

As a non USA resident, I didn't know who this was. Before I read the post that was the name I had in my head.

 

Sorry for the poor quality / lack of screenshot, this is from my work computer which I isolate from my personal devices, so I just took a picture.

I heard on the Sunday broadcast for the San Marino GP that it isn't confirmed yet if the India GP will go ahead.

The riders still need to test the circuit and give a verdict.

I think that's insane. Just wondering if anyone else knows any more about this?

External Links (self.motogp)
submitted 1 year ago by Luvs2Spuj to c/motogp
 

I know this isn't to everyone's taste, but a lot of linked articles are posted with headlines, and no text body. I find it hard to engage with the community like this.

I can't view motorsports articles unless I accept all the cookies and sign up - which I have no intention of doing. Same for twitter and other places.

Can we try to include a transcript of tldr bot in some way?

 

Sailing passed!
