Any question answered...

Can anyone recommend a small keyring style USB that has a decent amount of data, but is fairly tough - ie won't fuck up on a key ring with keys on it.

Ideally sub£30.

Cheers.

I've carried the 4gb version of this around on my keys for about a year, including lots of leaving keys in the door in the rain and falling off my bmx. Still works.

People who have renewed a passport recently, have you successfully renewed your passport without getting your photo counter-signed? They say if you haven't changed much you don't need to get counter-signed.

I had some passport photos done before I grew my beard, if I want to get counter-signed I'm going to have to shave my beard, which I don't want to do unless I really have to, nor do I want passport photos with a big beard as I won't have one every time I travel for the next 10 years.

I don't think I've changed too much but my hair has gone a bit shorter. What are the chances...?

Bit late, but in case anyone else wonders, I got a new passport a couple of weeks ago, previous photo was cleanshaven and from my early 20s, new picture, not so cleanshaven, noticeably older and fatter. Didn't get it signed, no problems.

I do think the pictures were fairly obviously the same person though.

Can anyone loan me a 31.6 post (300mm) for a couple of days, that I can pick up tomorrow?

Hey boss. Arup (boss wheel builder) has a boss calculator if you can get the factory measurements x

Someone tell what length spokes to buy please.

Front hub: DO41SB
Rear hub: DO42SB
Rims: Mavic A319

Both hubs are 32 hole, i'd like 3 cross.

How long does a game of baseball last? A surprising range of answers on google. Or is it as long as it needs?

As you may have guessed I know nothing about baseball and am pondering whether to watch an evening or matinee performance.

Baseball will either kill you or cause you to write poetry.

Odds on a good will replacement from SRAM? 2.5 years old (std SRAM warranty is two years). Bought from a US LBS via ebay.com. Any point whining to them about the Ergo 2s, S-Works Prevail, Rapha club jersey and packet of Bevia breakfast biscuits that have been destoryed in the resulting crash?

Why not just eat regular biscuits like everyone else?

These are tasty and make me feel like I'm having a healthy-ish breakfast when I get to my desk. A couple of Hob-nobs, just wouldn't be the same.

Sounds like exactly the sort of attitude that got you into trouble with the Omnivore cranks...

Application that will painlessly convert a bunch of mp3 files into a different bitrate?
Say I have a bunch of 320kbps stereo files and want them in 128kbps VBR mono or something?

Won't itunes do that?

Most MLB games will be around two or three hours, I think. As it's nine innings plus extra innings in case of a draw, there's no set time. There have been playoff games of four hours or more. If one of the pitchers is on a tear, allowing very few hits or pitching a shutout or a perfect game, it can be much shorter.

Here are the extremes:

Also have a think about ambience and logistics, pros and cons to afternoon and evening games. Which ball park are you thinking of going to?

There is no way in hell I am installing iTunes.

I had to drive into the office this morning (meeting out of town later) and saw a car behaving extremely aggressively towards cyclists. It was a black Hyundai i30, reg EF10 XNL being driven by a woman with long brown hair.

In the 5 minutes her car was near mine, she swerved towards two cyclists (clipping one with her wing mirror), spat at another one but missed, and tried to crush another one up against the rear of a bus.

A couple of minutes later, she ended up behind me a the queue and spent the entire time texting / reading things on her phone.

Eventually, she sped off at a rate of knots, nearly knocking off a scooter driver.

Obviously I want to report her as she's clearly a danger to others but to who?

Any ideas?

Wavelab = good for converting and editing audio files. Yet not too difficult.

Audacity will do the job.

Here's a manual for you:
