levels of parameters.
. tl;dr of it is that Imperial programme is perfect for the kind of work I did in the past and I want to be researcher/teacher when I get old so hoping that I can get in and they'll have regular lessons.

Out of boredom, I have looked it up. https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Licensed_vehicle_alternate_modes#Dark_of_the_Moon posted:Ferrari also provided a Ferrari 458 Italia to serve as the alternate mode of Mirage; however, due to an exclusive licensing deal with Hasbro's biggest competitor Mattel, the character was not allowed to sport the name of a Hasbro toy in the movie (hence he was named "Dino" at the request of Ferrari)

Ignore the rest of the class on iPads and laptops and demonstrate your innate superiority with your Slytherin ring binder and punch hole reinforcing stickers! I found this binder clearing out poo poo from my mum's house pre-pandemic:  It was full of hand-drawn maps of Amiga Bard's Tale/Eye of the Beholder levels and carefully removed pages from the Kays Catalogue ladies underwear section.

CancerCakes posted:I've seen some things about using waste plastics and recycled glass for roads but is that actually viable? That is still at it's early stages while some startups push them as THE NEXT BIG THING, TOTES while just trying to score some sweet research grants. Industrial waste being used for fills as a replacement to soil or aggregate base materials is somewhat established method, especially in countries like UK that has/had strong coal or peat fired power plants that produces fly ash after burning coal. Fly ash and the flux slags are used in concrete to replace Portland cement which is literally one of the biggest emission creator (like, 7% of world total) but cement industry is so rich that they managed to blame it on cows I have heard about glass dust being used in fills but the potential impacts are still researched. In Birmingham I met a company viably producing "negative" carbon aggregates from waste like glass dust which is pretty neat. They fuse carbon dioxide with waste by a super sekrit system which ends up containing more carbon than it releases during process. Also, suprise the research for that tech came from Imperial. Good stuff, really.

UK thread what are your favourite days for drinking (any day ending in a y ha ha ha ) I seem to have settled on Wednesday (or the weekend of the week as my gf calls it), Friday and Saturday, with watching football being a wildcard that necessitates a beer whenever Sundays also sometimes creep in there if a bottle of wine needs to be shared with the gf to round off the edges of the previous couple of days

thursday is when i get the itch atm but i'm not a good role model since i'm a) unemployed and therefore have no normal routine, and b) am probably an alcoholic when i wasn't regulating my drinking so much and had a job the only day i would consistently avoid was monday for some reason.

Galewolf posted:Thank you ratty, since I'm already living in London it sounds like a no-brainer to go for a part-time degree (hell, even full time can work since I'm self-employed) with thesis. Since childhood, I was interested in science and laboratories which I was lucky enough to be my job as well. Well, if you're going to help create better pavements you have my pedestrian support (genuinely, the ones around here are a joke for the disabled).

I mean, I work on road pavements not the sidewalks (I think that's how Muricans call it) so I'll try to make better inner city roads and highways but if I have chance to do better sidewalks , I will. Make everything better and less Earthdestroy-y is my goal

The new Stone Mastic Asphalt surfaces have inherit noise reduction but that's hella expensive for non-highway apllications. They should use noise barriers but I can imagine boomers non stop calling the council complaining about losing their view or some poo poo

I think what we're proving here is that the composition of road surfaces, while not a sexy subject, is something people care about. Go forth young goon and make the world slightly less terrible.
