If the sausage Bologna is pronounced "Balloney" in english, how is the city of Bologna pronounced?

Jump

  • Im sure if you go to Italy it's not pronounced balloney,and that the evolution of the language has contorted the way it should be said. However, that's not guaranteed, for example, the French city of Riems, is pronounced "ranse", nothing like what it should, if the usual rules are followed.

  • It's a great deal, if you stay small, the idea is a loss leader, they temp you in and you set up your service, then when you need to scale up, they charge the extras.

  • That sounds like the bitter expression of regret and experience.

    • Façade absorbs water in some areas. Is paint a decent solution? (update: no it is not)

    Jump

  • Never try to keep water out of a building using impermeable coatings, rubberised paint, ciment render, etc etc. A building MUST breath, even at the cost of some inward moisture during wetter periods, any water that will inevitably creap in,and even the moisture you create by living in the building,needs to escape, or I guarantee you will have mould and rot problems down the line. Water which can not escape from behind an impermeable coating is worse that no coating at all. I recommend a lime render for all building needs.

  • Correct, some sources do say that, in BrE we say electric shock, perhaps in AmE electrocution is a generic term, but that's bizzare, the word is a amalgamation of electricity and execution, since when is execution non lethal? In french we use électrisé and electrocutes to make the distinction.

  • Electrocution is fatal, electrified is non fatal.

    • I need to come up with a right angle gearbox (example)

    Jump

  • The angle grinder idea is the easiest and probably cheapest, they can be bought very cheap these days, I saw one for 20€ in a shop, brand new the other day, I'm sure you could look at the second hand market and get something very cheap.

    • Anyone else playing on a 5-20 year lag?

    Jump

  • I have a 20€ limit on any game I buy, it has to be something I really want at that price too, mostly I won't pay more than 10€ per game. My one exception will be Baldur's gate 3, I will wait for the first sale, and get it at however that much that ends up being.
