Brendan Rodgers posted:I've been thinking of starting to brew my own since Christmas is gonna suck if it starts costing like £20 for 4 beers or something, and I could gift people beer. Cavemen figured it out, why not me (they did a lot of things I couldn't figure out, I'm gonna gently caress this up) Nah brewing beer is easy. Get yourself a premade extract kit or just put the ingredients together yourself from a recipe, get a big pot to brew in and a fermentation bucket, follow the instructions and you'll almost guaranteed end up with something drinkable and alcoholic. If you get into trouble ask in the Home Brewing Thread. You can end up with some pretty decent results from your very first try.

I have no idea where that perception came from but it lasted into my 20s and even today my brain still goes to imagining domes whenever these resorts are mentioned https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cllEP3O3fEk

If only there was a way to limit entrance to an event other than having everyone who wants to do it stand in one big line. Oh well we'll never know.

OzyMandrill posted:Because - one of the early center parks had the main swimming pool and shop area under a giant dome/glass roof, back when that was rare and unusual. I forget if it was France or here, but they used that one domed area in all the publicity shots to give the idea they were all like that. I think it was part of their logo for a while. No, one of the early UK ones definitely was. I think there were two initially and one was like that but the other wasn't? We definitely had a family weekend in the glassed-in one, can't remember where it was though. Edit: it would have been cooler if the entire site was under a huge dome but I guess then it would just be Stephen King's Under The Dome Danger - Octopus! fucked around with this message at 17:04 on Sep 14, 2022 |

StarkingBarfish posted:In a similar vein BOC just got in touch with us that due to the CF Ammonia plant in Billingham shutting due to gas prices, CO2 is getting a surcharge of GBP1540/tonne. Expect fertiliser, fizzy drinks, and loads of other stuff to become phenomenally more expensive over the coming months. So happy Northern Ireland will probably get it's CO2 from the EU again.... if only i drank beer & fizzy drinks.

a pipe smoking dog posted:No I've not heard of Coating it with bitumen obviously, so that it acts like a wick, but at that point why bother with the asbestos? "Hi I'd like some panels made up of something with well known health hazards, but that is tolerated at the time because of its excellent fire resistance. Also could you make it flammable?" "Oh yeah, I'd like some beryllium ceramic electrical insulators too, can you copper plate them?"

Nothingtoseehere posted:Centre Parcs Longleat Yeah, I remember going there years ago (Sept 2001 - I watched the twin towers collapse on the news). The dome was quite cool but it meant that every time it rained, it would get packed as nobody wanted to walk around outside in the pouring rain. Its extortionately expensive now.

quote:The fire spread to the wall's interior soundproofing material, which was highly combustible, causing an intense fire that ignited the flammable acrylic sheeting that covered the rest of the building. The fire quickly spread across the sheeting on the leisure centre walls and roof, and through vents which were not properly fireproofed. The acrylic material melted, allowing more oxygen to enter, and dropping burning molten material, both starting other fires and injuring those trying to escape. quote:There was no attempt to evacuate the 3,000 people present until the visible evidence of the flames prompted a panic-stricken mass rush for the exits. The fire was contained in an internal space within the walls until it penetrated the interior, destroying the wiring of the fire alarm system in the process. Also I'd like the roof to be made of napalm, and can you make it so that the fire alarm switches off if it gets too hot or the wiring is damaged? No definitely should fail 'off' in a fault condition, make a note of that. Otherwise people might confuse faults with fires you see.

I'm going up to London at the weekend for an event on Saturday night that I've been looking forward to for months. I'm super glad I booked my hotel a couple of months ago. It's going to be loving grim. At least I won't be there for Monday when everything just freezes in time for a couple of hours.

The peasants are still working knowing they live week by week and still need to feed their kids or get ready for the energy price hikes. And if they get a day off its because their gracious boss wants to show how much a royalist they are by allowing one. These are boomers and middle class wankers.

a pipe smoking dog posted:It feels like when I deliberately make a death trap in planet zoo. Like that's babby's first control theory lesson, often literally, like *draws a smoke detector, a bell, and two long wires on blackboard* "okay, when the detector detects smoke, it produces 12V, which rings the bell, can you see the problem?" *draws fire under the pair of wires* "the fire started here and burned the wires before the detector picked it up, everyone died. How do we solve this?" *draws detector that produces the signal whenever there isn't a fire, and a bell with a battery that turns on when there is no signal* There's drawbacks with that too, so you can go to two pair systems where one pair is always on and the other is on when there's no fire, so you can do basic fault analysis, or more complicated high/low/safe differential signalling but the rule of thumb is alarm/guard/safety circuits are normally closed. We've known similar since the days of the train signals, where they all fall to "no train pls" if the cable snaps, so I have no idea how they didn't in 1971 when they were building their Oops! All Flammable parc of the future. But I guess that's why I've never been hired to figure out how to make asbestos a fire hazard.

All this outpouring of grief is really getting to me. Not only am I stuck in a hellish, came out for a drink to escape the spoons is infested with air raid children'whirling about whilst the parents do gently caress all.

Unless you’re hanging around by the giga-queue for some reason, chances are you won’t even notice anything unusual is happening.
