Electrical gremlins can be really hard to diagnose, especially remotely over the internet I used to see a similar situation with rear tail light clusters. When the indicators are on then the brake lights also illuminate. The issue is caused by a bad earth meaning that the electrical flow coming out ...

It would be interesting if the engineers would add some sound effects to these electric cars, such as the unique sound of an F1 V10 engine when accelerating and the ‘burbling’ sound when decelerating :D Sound effects could probably be tailored to the drivers liking. It would sure beat the ‘sound of...

Did the linesman confuse the goalkeeper's bald head with the ball?

You might need to spend a lot of money on an SLR, and a suitably large lens, if you're wanting decent shots at airshows. Second hand would be the obvious option A compromise might be a super zoom bridge camera. The sensor isn't as good as an SLR but the built in zoom lenses are insane. Mine (Nikon p...

The ChatGPT answer, whilst correct that A is not solvable in the original picture, provides failed logic for coming to that conclusion. Yellow is not guaranteed to be always opposite white and the assumption that it is, maybe because that's the current standard for a Rubik cube, is why AI answers sh...

Croydon Claret

My Rubik cube record is 47 seconds so this is an interesting question. As presented in your image they're all impossible unless you allow for some non standard cube that has multiple faces, out of view, with the same colours. But that would make them all possible to solve so is not the answer The si...

I'll do Liverpool on 14/09

Can I make a proposal/suggestion - points for doing a food count be increased to 5? Perhaps with a max limit on how many counts you can do in a season, to prevent volunteering for every game

Why would anyone do that? They're asking for trouble :roll: Not quite the same but when I was working at Lloyds in Burnley I recovered a cash point card that had been swallowed by the machine.

Is this correct? For example.... I could be logged into my phone- its gets stolen from my hand by some one on one of those bl**dy E-bikes in a balaclava (don't get me started) But they'd still need to log onto my online banking... which they can't do ? So where's the value in that? Im by no means a...

Croydon Claret

Where’s the logic in this? Someone would need to steal your password to log into your online banking, regardless of whether the app is installed on your phone or not. If they can access your phone then they can access your email account. And having access to your email allows them to do a password ...

I don't have the stats for the entire country but in London and average of 192 phones are stolen every day. The value isn't in the phone itself, it's in the data/apps they can access if the phone is e.g. snatching it out of your hand whilst you're using it. The thieves are specifically trying to tar...

Yeah we were thinking of Dachau as well. We are both interested in war history so the Third Reich tour is another good shout. I might need to go back.. No worries.

Croydon Claret

The Third Reich tour is very good if you're interested in war history. A day trip to Dachau concentration camp is also possible, depending on appetite. (You can easily do it yourself by getting the Nuremberg train to Dachau. There's then a very small bus terminus with a dedicated shuttle to the camp...
