  1. It'll need a new set of ATs this winter and I was think of going up a size to give an extra inch on the tyres radius and then fitting a spacer lift to the struts to give a bit more. Then yeah, maybe do as you say keep it for what it's for and get a clean hatchback for nice.
  2. Yeah sure, you and I are examples of Homo Sapiens whereas Stig of the dump is an example of a Homo Neanderthalensis. I'm not an anthropologist, I couldn't do it justice. I mean, we're all talking about dna on here right, we all believe dna exists, but I bet not one of us has a comprehensive understanding of genetics/alleles etc.
  3. Homo homo, the original homo!
  4. Mines all battered and bruised from my wreckless behaviour. Not all body-parts are original I've done nearly 100k in it since I bought it at 39k and I think it's a great motor tbh. I want to buy something new and shiny but I can't fault this and I 'know' the motor now so when suspension parts go it's straightforward to fit replacements. If it had another two inch ground clearance it'd make a hell of a difference in the ruts though but the traction control is pretty good.
  5. The genetic difference between shroom and Valuev will be small compared to any sapien and a neanderthal. It's just not true, especially when you build up a dataset that reduces the statistics. The 'Homo' in Homo Neanderthalensis literally means 'human'...
  6. Now you mention it I do remember reading that. But even if their high estimate of 0.3% is true it still represents a significant difference between modern 'racial' groups. Europeans and Asians particularly having orders of magnitude more. I don't much like the word 'pure', it's too absolute. But yeah, fair point.
  7. That's what I'm saying though, that one incident might just have been the first time you felt pain from a fundamental poor posture. Through rehab and being careful that inflammation subsides and you feel 'better' again but the fundamental cause is still there waiting for you to do something to trigger it again. Do you get what I'm trying to say mate? Obviously you shouldn't train on an injury but moving forward with this as a part of your life you might want to avoid certain lifts or as I said intense low rep stuff. I think there's benefit to putting your whole body under load in the w
  8. If it is bad posture it won't heal. I don't know shit but I'd be looking into that and making it part of my daily routine to do a few mobility stretches to target those areas. Hip flexors and hamstrings right? Not just as rehab either, as part of your life going forward, pain or not. I'd sack off any ideas of intense low rep strength lifts too in favour of higher volume routines. Much easier to monitor weak links in your body and still focus on working the targeted muscles. I was running 10kms twice a week and loving it until a month ago when the old ITBS hit. It's very frustrating.
  9. They don't. It's just that you only hear about the ones that do. Do you remember it being widely publicised that archaic human hybridisation roughly correlates with what we would identify as modern racial groups? Ongoing research looking for archaic human genes in modern day humans across the world found that modern Europeans are Sapien-Neanderthal hybrids, Polynesians are Sapien-Denisovan hybrids and sub-Saharan Africans are 'pure' Sapien. I say 'identify as modern racial groups' because with genetics in mind African, Asian, European etc is a shit way of grouping modern humans into
  10. It does strike me as somewhat hypocritical that 'we' think we can tell Africa how to conserve their native fauna and ecosystems when we wiped ours out hundreds of years ago and won't give reintroduction much consideration. Most facebook 'conservationists' of the West would have some dirt poor African f***ing lynched for poisoning a herd of elephants that are threatening his livelihood but it's alright for us here to stand on the prosperous shoulders of men that did exactly the same.... It's a nuanced and complex topic but if we value nature we have to start looking at the bigger pict
  11. He won't do much harm until next spring (as I'm sure you know). But I'm not sure he'll go near a larsen ever again!
  12. That's very interesting. You just wouldn't expect that from such a lightly built animal and substantial bullet.
  13. I’ve been round the houses with stop end heaps of times. I just can’t be arsed these days.
  14. You’re being silly and I can’t be arsed to knock over your straw men.
  15. It’s a disease actually. SARS CoV 2 is technically the virus....
  16. Is it definitely a data breach? Not sabs doing a half decent intelligence job? Most the lads involved with the cull are keepers and hunting lads, many of whom will have been on the sabs radar well before this. Got to say it, I've been saying how these social media vigilante mobs are wrong for years. I get it, I do, when they're setting up kiddy fiddlers it's hard to argue against, but then we've set a precedent..... we've given them the social contract to whip up a shit storm for 'justice' and we hold them to less and less scrutiny. I think it's a bit of a sad indictment of the coun
  17. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facial_recognition_system#United_States
  18. Facial recognition technology is definitely here. The ones I've heard of tend to use neural nets trained with a database of images of peoples faces. Any uni student could make one with decent programming software. They vary in accuracy of course but with the advancement of A.I and the detection systems that feed them they'll only get better. I dunno as I'd go as far as to say it's comprehensively incorporated into all government agencies/systems though. It's probably still a bit specialist.
  19. Be careful if you have to operate heavy machinery today mate. You might die from covid-19!
  20. Dude, I was being facetious. It's quite clear there was a pandemic.
