You could also convert cars by putting harder valve seats in, not sure if this happened a lot at the time, or whether it’s more for classic cars that are worth enough to make sense to do. I don’t think the lead was primarily an anti knock additive, more of a valve and bore lubricant

The UK has something in common with Ireland that maybe the rest of that EU doesn’t perhaps?

I don’t really see how this represents any proof that these asylum seekers are illegal economic migrants. Rwanda isn’t a safe country for asylum seekers, so it seems reasonable that people would try and avoid being sent there. If Ireland now appears safer, then travelling there from the UK makes sense surely? The position for “illegal economic migrants” hasn’t changed substantially, as the likelihood of being sent to Rwanda is low. But if you are trying to reach safety, the threat of death or torture hanging over you might be enough to make you consider Ireland

I recently replaced the heating element in my delonghi coffee machine, and was also surprised to see how wild it was inside

I’ve been using retroarch with the Genesis Plus GX core, and that seems to work well and is open source. Not everyone loves retroarch, but I’ve moved to it so I can use some of the more interesting HDR 4k CRT shaders

Was hoping to find this here, many happy childhood memories playing this one

I’m pretty sure that is also the case in the US. These incidents are either caused by some sort of defeat device (I have seen weights that wrap around the steering wheel, no idea if they work), or people who have just gotten good at resting a hand on the wheel and not paying attention I think

I was bitten by a golden retriever when I was 12. It looked friendly so I went to pet it, and it sunk a canine into my arm. I was just unlucky (and slightly stupid) though, and it didn’t rip my face off, so I think I did ok overall.

A German shepherd also tried to bite me when passing it on a narrow path, but it just shredded my jacket pocket.

A Yorkshire terrier also had a go at me once, but didn’t make it through denim jeans.

Ok, then why does the same display work perfectly in windows? The display supports full RGB both 8 and 10 bit uncompressed. There is an open issue for this on the driver gitlab repo.

Don’t monitor shame me please. Also, the pixel density is within 5% of my 27" 1440p monitors.

Yes, the UK justice system works on the same principle

One warning, if you use a display over HDMI, then you might have a bad time with Radeon on Linux. I use an LG C2 TV as my monitor, and there is a bug in the driver that forces it to a crappy ycbcr mode that ruins text clarity. I did try all manner of workarounds like hacking up the EDID profile, but I gave up and went back to Windows for now.

It’s a very specific issue, but a showstopper if it affects you

Nope, it’s not. It’s in the terms of service. If you don’t like that, don’t sign the contract with them. Steal it if you want to. I’m cool with piracy, just not with the poor attempts at justification.

This is why I only carjack rental cars, it’s totally not stealing!

That 30fps though. I’m not sure I can do it any more tbh, now I’m at 120, even 60 can feel sluggish in some titles.

Good call on game pass though, I’ll check it out on PC at launch I think too.

My son is autistic, and eats almost exclusively breaded chicken for dinner (tenders, nuggets and the like), so the air fryer is a lifesaver. I can quickly could cook a small amount of these really quickly. So it gets used adviser l almost every day in our house. I also use it for all sorts of other food fairly frequently.

I have had at least a dozen instances where I have done a Google search for a problem, and clicked a Reddit link without thinking, only to get hit with a private message. I do have an unusual number of problems per day (software dev who seems to spend their evenings trying stupid technical stuff), but I guarantee the impact is not seen on Reddit, but in the many users who never get there.
