  1. Not of the two world wars they won't. There are scant few people still alive that remember the actual war, especially anyone currently aged 60, they would have been born in 1964. Anyone still alive that remembers fighting in the actual war will be close to 100 today.
  2. I don't think a solid flywheel conversion is that much cheaper than a replacement DMF anyway. The only benefit would be that after another 150k miles your DMF would again need replacing, while the regular flywheel could just be skimmed and re-used.
  3. Did you see some of the stuff they put out after the missile strike? Since none of the missiles actually did any damage they used a load of footage from a forest fire in Chile, claiming it was aftermath of their attack 🤣🤣 https://en.royanews.tv/news/50684/2024-04-14
  4. Israel has been suspected of having nukes for decades now. It'd be extremely unwise for Iran to have a pop at them with a nuke of their own. Doubtful they'd be silly enough to actually sell a nuclear weapon. The isotype ratio of the material in the bomb can be matched back to the source reactor, as each has a slightly different ratio it kinda acts like a fingerprint.
  5. Ordered mine off Temu, I'm not fully convinced it's upto the job tho...................
  6. Not sure on the Mondeo, but I've heard some of the Transit engines fall apart if you switch to a single mass unit. They need the dual mass unit to keep the engine from rattling apart.
  7. Very stupid, but both sides are in a position where they need to respond to keep their political alliances happy. Iran couldn't let the strike on it's consulate and General go unanswered and likewise I doubt Netanyahu can let a direct strike from Iran on Israel go unanswered either. Perhaps if Iran has just used it's proxys, but it didn't, and that's a big escalation.
  8. France, Jordan and America have both been named as helping to stop the drone and missile attack. Also Iraq, Syria and Yemen have also been named as locations alongside Iran that the attack was launched from.
  9. Our planes were involved in the attack on Israel? Are you insane?
  10. and to keep America engaged with the war, it's deeply unpopular there (well everywhere obviously) Technically it wasn't the consulate, it was outside of the consulate compound wasn't it?
  11. It varies greatly, so much it's not really possible to really calculate. For example with crude oil, the stuff pumped out of Saudi Arabia was discovered long ago, and the actual cost to get it our of the ground (lifting cost) is some of the cheapest in the world. All of the infrastructure is already in place, even it's position globally is quite advantageous and the oil itself is of pretty decent quality. Compare that to emerging markets, lots of exploratory drilling has to be done to even find the oil, ALL the infrastructure needs to be built and installed, and for quite a number of instances, they're drilling deeper and further to find the stuff. That's before you consider the quality, some oil requires so much processing to produce a clean end product, that it takes more energy to do than is in the fuel produced.
  12. The part where he actually describes the murder, it says she fell over and hit her head on the floor. In actuality, her throat was cut so deep it nearly decapitated her.
  13. He did loose a second case about the murder though didn't he? A wrongful death civil suit. Lower burden of proof I guess.
  14. Maybe, your guess is as good as mine, cos they didn't ask for any recommendations. Just for 'best price'.
  15. Smaller manufacturers like Aston Martin really struggle with the transition to EV. It's a very fast moving technology, and the development budget needed to stay at the head of the pack is something only the likes of Tesla and other big brands can manage. Everyone else is waiting till the tech matures and becomes alot more standardised before diving in
