Re: The Streets of London

I agree, if the police have no power and at the same time numbers reduced then crime will go up. Tory idiots all live in their glass houses and heavy security cars with body guards around them. They dont give a shit about the general public and their safety. Long live JC and the labour party to save...

Re: is it just me?

Commuting on a bike must be a painful experience but for Sunday rides and summer evening rides I can put up with the normal traffic till I get to the quiet twisty roads. That,s usually about 10 miles before I can set myself free.

Re: Bubble car Museum

I feel much safer on my bike than being in one of those micro cars but they,re ok for running around in town. Not a good idea to use them on motorways. (hi)

Re: Autopilot driving

Ray you can get different Safety Integrity Levels (SiL 1 to 4) for instruments and you could employ triple redundancy if needed. Simple systems with low risk fail yes. But high integrity systems can prove almost fail free. . We must have bought cheap shite in the past Steve unless in the last few y...

Re: Autopilot driving

In my line of work I see sensors and switches failing all the time and computer programmes that develop bugs all of a sudden and throw everything around suddenly for no reason. Therefore although technology is great and artificial intelligence is improving all the time but I doubt it that in our tim...

Its bloody hard work I tell ya....

I bought a scooter this weekend one of these in the pic to use when I go places on the bus and train to use in between instead of walking. (nod) I took it around our block yesterday for a test ride and shit man, it is quite a hard work but it took me 15 minutes to go round the block instead of 40 mi...

Re: Autopilot driving

No I didn,t say that, of course not. Thats a different issue. I,m talking about giving total control to a car that only relies on sensors to work correctly. A while ago I was driving a car which had lane control system and I let go of the steering wheel but it failed once or twice and it kept asking...

Re: Great teacher of life....

Death is a kind of release that you won,t know anything about afterwards but freedom on earth would feel great on the other hand.

Freedom from any religious beliefs, freedom from this commercialised world, marked clothing, material stuff. They,re all chains round people,s necks these days. (nod)

Re: Bubble car Museum

One way of reducing traffic at rush hour is probably forcing people to commute to work in micro cars only or use public transport.

Its crazy to totally trust limit switches, proximity switches and sensors. What was the driving thinking or did he think he,s on a plane and can fall sleep till he gets home? |-) https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/mar/31/tesla-car-crash-autopilot-mountain-view" onclick="window.ope...

Re: Great teacher of life....

I,m not following him but what he,s talked about makes sense and he did,nt say those things to control anyone but instead to set people free.
