I really hope in the next few years we see a revolution in short distance transport. Most journeys are less than 3 miles (if I remember correctly, could be 5) a perfect distance for e-bikes, e-scooters and normal acoustic bikes. Hopefully at least some places capitalise on it

Metals are made of crystals, they usually defourm along the grain boundaries and fatigue cracks also grow along them. By eliminating those boundaries you reduce the chance for fatigue cracks and make the overall blade stronger.

Also lots of other places (YouTube as an example) allow you to migrate your account indefinitely, over a decade after they were purchased.

So many things wrong, we were never the envy of Europe, we were the cash cow of Europe. European state operators ran our services for profit to subside their own.

The rolling stock leasing companies are the place where all the money goes, I would rather see them nationalised than the franchises themselves. However as they are owned by the banks we can't touch them.

Also the claim that privatisation increased passenger numbers is wrong, they were going up before.

Additionally the idea that the private system is cost effective is wrong aswell. The subsidy paid out to the rail is higher now than under BR.

It's not that it makes 110 k jobs immediately available, it's that is gives you more leverage with negotiating pay as if you walk away you are not under threat of starving to death. As you would potentially be if you had no income between jobs.

Is the motor sparking is places it shouldn't. If it's the type of motor I think is likely to be there (brushed universal motor) it will spark where the brushes are. So your problem might just be normal operation of the motor. Could also be fucked, difficult to know without more detail

That is a very odd failure so not 100% sure. If I had to take a punt I would say the nozzle jammed from the mentioned heat creap issue, eventually the silk pla broke in the extruder as it's very brittle, combined with retractions. It then was then able to work its way out and make some noodles for you to enjoy.
