Damn that's hot! (164*F is about 73*C.) :shock:

This is what happened to our roads today

Interesting.
The roads must be built to withstand cold, snow and rain water, but no heat.

Afraid not, we had 2 particularly bad winters in 2010 and 2011. There was an explosion in potholes which have never really been addressed. Some people day it'll cost around £10billion to fix now...

When running passenger missions to raise OoM influence, I frequently get modular terminals as mission rewards. You might want to look into that...

Tonight I'm hoping to wing up with friends on the XBO and do some exploration (and horsing around.)

The plan is to visit a capitol ship dock, mega ship, new station, and asteroid base.

Hopefully streaming live at 7:30pm EDT on Mixer.com/TheGamersShow

Depending on who joins we may play in Mobius, but not all of my friends have signed up yet

Does it make me a engineering geek to say i read all of Thebs post on environmental engineering and started googling for more info.. i lived in Florida my whole life as well and know exactly what he is talking about, did a lot of cave diving in the swiss cheese lower half of the state and totally believe that is true...

We used to be good at a lot of stuff......

Then health and safety went fooking mad........Fecking tree hugging care bears surfaced......Political correctness went mad......

People suddenly found they could make more money on benefits than actually working......

Strain on councils......No money for anything...They start using the cheapest labour and shit materials to repair everything.....

Then the fecking expenses fiddling twats in goverment step in and cut the councils budgets....

And to top it all we got fecking Brexit now

This country aint worth a wank anymore......

/Rant

Wow this heat is REALLY getting to me.....

Just an excerpt from the "Canadian Operational Manual":


"Operational temperatures for your Canadian are between -40C and ++20C. Although a Canadian can operate at a much lower temperature (as low as -50C) for short periods of time, prolonged exposure to temperatures over +25C will cause problems that will continue and worsen exponentially to the temperature.

Problems may include a Low Fluids warning sound, severe leakage everywhere, and early onset Tourette's with bouts of crying. If your Canadian is experiencing any of these symptoms, it is advised that you place it a cool place with a full case of Hops & Barley Liquid Replenishment fluid and leave alone for several hours. Failure to do so will cause your normally docile and pleasant Canadian to permanently morph into British model and will void its warranty.

* British models can be recognised by their permanent complaining and lack of politeness as well as a pronounced accent in their vocal subroutines and a strange desire to stand in lines with other British models.

Yes, it's too F'in Hot to do much here. PC may melt if used.
