- Comment on Barcelona is turning subway trains into power stations 1 month ago:
Victoria, Circle, District, Hammersmith and City, Metropolitan and the new Piccadilly Line trains (due soon) all have regenerative braking. The rest will follow as new trains are procured.
As anyone who travels on the Victoria line in the summer will tell you: it helps, but not much.
- Comment on DeArrow is an open source browser extension for crowdsourcing better titles and thumbnails on YouTube. 2 months ago:
I’ve been using this for a while now and the only thing I’ll say is that a lot of videos don’t have alternative titles, so since it’s all crowd sourced I feel that the best solution is to have more people using it.
Brilliant idea regardless.

I refuse to have anything with Stevia in it as it gives me the shits. And Aspartame tastes weird.
I do have less sugar as a result, though!

I have a UDR and it’s pretty great. I have had one unknown failure once, which needed a physical reboot. And that’s been in two or so years.

A friend of mine does this in her garden. The weight of the water is more than enough to not cause issues here. It’s easily 70/80kg even allowing for displacement of a person and it’s all at the bottom.

They allow non-folding bikes off-peak in non-tunnel sections or on newer trains (like the Elizabeth line). They allow folding bikes at any time anywhere.

Not forcing things is generally pretty good life advice. It’s like a fart: if you have to force it it’s probably shit.

- Comment on London Mayoral Candidate Susan Hall gets wallet returned after she left it on a tube seat 11 months ago:
They’ve moved to West Ham now (and had a temporary office in South Kensington)
AFAIK it’s pretty much the same - and in fact they moved because they ran out of space in the older locations! They have to keep stuff for some minimum amount of time I think.
And the best advice I can give anyone on this: write down your phone’s IMEI, it makes identifying it much easier.
