Closing the loops sounds like an excellent idea, also see if you can use a bungee pulling down to reduce any bounce?

you could hang a much heavier weight from a Cambium by other means.

On some metal loops from the saddle rails perhaps

I don’t see the benefit—the metal tangs are fine.

I am currently resisting the very strong temptation to send her one of these via eBay

I reckon this will work; might not work for anything taller than the Audax because of the risk of the Voile coming off the top

Helena Parker has been a staunch Tory voter all her life, but can no longer support a party that does not think of people’s needs, only how to balance the books

Will the saddle side bit of the Bagman qr attach to the straps directly rather than to the dedicated plastic piece it comes with?

Yes, that’s how I use it—the plastic bit interferes with precludes the use of the Classic rack. The triangles on the orange handle stop the loops from falling inside.

[carabiners look] a bit sway-ey

Yes, and metal/metal rubbing, so it’ll probably wear quickly. Maybe another hole and a Voile strap around the dowel? Fidlock is a nice idea, I’ll have a look & see if anything springs to mind.

[…] something quicker for getting the bag on/off the Classic rack and Bagman QR

Your ideas are intriguing to me, and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter; in my case a Bagman QR on the big bike, Classic rack on the Brompton. I might try a couple of small carabiners on the bag loops for the attachment to the rack… leaving them on the rack when using the Bagman:

Preliminary Lessons in Conventional Warfighting from Russia’s Invasion
of Ukraine

The full-scale invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022 has provided an invaluable opportunity to assess the capabilities of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (AFRF) and the implications of a range of capabilities for modern warfare. Many publicly made judgements on these issues have lacked supporting data or insight into Ukrainian operational planning and decision- making. To ensure that those drawing lessons from the conflict do so from a solid foundation, this report seeks to outline key lessons, based on the operational data accumulated by the Ukrainian General Staff, from the fighting between February and July 2022. As the underlying source material for much of this report cannot yet be made public, this should be understood as testimony rather than as an academic study. Given the requirements for operational security, it is necessarily incomplete.

If you can manage ¬ I reckon it's pretty likely you can also find ≠—on a mac, ⌥L and ⌥= respectively

I’ve managed to steer clear of JavaScript all this time, and have no regrets. PHP I have had to touch. Urgh.

I’ve never seen that, but have seen =/=. Programmers would be more likely to use != or perhaps <>, mathematicians might plump for \neq^*

Big disadvantages of fan heater are the noise & blowing stuff around the room. Latency of oil heater is not a benefit, I think.

re electric heating a given spend on kWh will warm a room up just as much regardless of the specific gadget eg fan vs oil rad, just perhaps in less time with a higher power
