Rev. Dr. Moses P. Lester posted:Up until the 60s there were British companies, at least in the motorcycle industry, who were capable of undertaking R&D, QA, and mass manufacturing on a large scale which produced products which were well designed and reliable by the standards of the day. At some point they just got tired and had some tea and a nap and haven't woken up yet. British bikes were renowned for being giant oil leaks

He loving genuinely loves motorsport and is the world's largest Ferrari collector and I'm pretty sure I drove past him on the highway thhe other day (I live in the Greater Toronto Area).

learnincurve posted:Major U.K. airport has been shut down because someone with drones has worked out how to bypass the jammers and avoid the helicopters and snipers. Military has been called in, only flaw in this plan is that the drones only show up when the runways are reopened. Jamming only works on frequency iirc,not difficult to work around
