![]() The mining industry consumes roughly 10 per cent of global energy, and given the energy use within the sector it means four per cent of all the energy produced globally goes into crushing rocks, and once you get it out of the ground you have to turn it from an ore into a metal. Mining, as you might imagine, is relatively energy intensive. It was dug out of the ground in some of the largest mines in the world and placed into a train that’s 1.5 miles long for a journey across the desert to a smelter on the coast. The steel in your custom stainless frame or your mum’s old mountain bike began life as a rusty rock, more than likely in the Australian outback. The biggest producer of iron ore is Australia, followed by Brazil and China. To put that into context that's the same weight as two million aircraft carriers being dug out of the ground year in, year out. The numbers involved can easily make you lose your sense of scale in 2015 over two billion tonnes of iron ore was extracted from the earth. Steel represents 95 per cent of annual metal use globally, and given that the percentage of carbon in steel is a matter of a couple of per cent at most, we can use iron and steel synonymously when speaking in global terms. We’ll begin with how the best steel road bikes are made, as it is a good primer for the industry as a whole. Each step is 15-20 metres tall (Image credit: Wikipedia) How are steel bikes made? ![]() With the first few stages already done and dusted, we're looking forward to seeing if Team INEOS can not only bring a Stage Win home, but another Grand Tour title too.The size of some mines is hard to imagine. ![]() The team will pedal their way through almost 3,500 km of our H ydrodynamic Lube over the 21 stages of le Tour. More importantly, they needed a lube that would withstand the changing weather conditions especially found in the mountain stages, over hundreds of kilometres at a time. This one was born out of the riders' need for a lube that didn't wash off in the wet, but also didn't pick up dust and grime in the dry. Hydrodynamic Lube: Another product we developed in collaboration with Team INEOS. This translates as only 10L in 2 x 5L drums.īio Drivetrain Cleaner: When Muc-Off came on board with the team, one of the top priorities was to develop a drivetrain cleaning solution that worked quickly, efficiently and was safe for everyday use. After many hours of research and development, we came out with our biodegradable D rivetrain Cleane r. It's now one of our top-selling products worldwide! The mechanics go through around 4L of the stuff over the 23 days at Le Tour. Nano Tech Bike Cleaner: 40L of Bike Cleaner sounds like a lot to lug around France! Thankfully the team is using our Bike Cleaner Concentrate to save weight, space and plastic. ![]() From bikes to bidons, you'll be surprised at how much is involved in keeping the team performing at its best during the three week event. In the run up to the Grand Depart in Brussels we caught up with Team INEOS to get an insight into some of the behind-the-scenes stats for their lap of France. It’s time for the biggest race of them all: Le Tour de France is now underway! ![]() 23 days, 21 stages, 218 riders covering 3,480 km each. ![]()

When Apple announced the single-size app icon feature, I was immediately interested in investigating the effect on app size. How does a single app icon affect my app’s total size? You still need to define all sizes individually for macOS. You could argue extensions like App Clips are supported since they reuse the App Icon of your main project. Which platforms support single app icon sizes? An App Icon generator might still be helpful for these cases. In other words, if you want to configure specific app icons for certain sizes, you’ll have to provide an app icon for all individual sizes. There’s no option to override individual app icon sizes while falling back on the single app icon for other sizes. Can I override individual app icon sizes?

Im guessing you need Rsspbian (any flavour, stretch or the new one, buster) as the base o/s, and then you need the program (indigo sky) to run on the o/s? If so, if you are trying to image the Astro software onto the sd card, it will overwrite what is on the sd card. One thing though, you say noobs is installed on the sd card, have you ran that and installed your choice of o/s? When imaging a file from your pc to the micro sd card (or the other way around) it does not matter what drive you pick, so I normally just go for boot.

The usual LAN configuration will make the RPi visible under the name "indigosky". I would suggest to start with wire LAN connection. follow the steps to prepare a SD card and configure the access to the device via the network. Thanks Daz, yes I was going to get one with noobs pre installed, with indigo sky not not 100per cent need to re read but you just copy to SD card it’s all pre configured, here is instructions from APT thread on indigo It does sound like that is the case though.ĭont scrimp on cheap power cables, the Pi are very power sensitive, and as an absolute minimum, get a 32GB micro SD card, 64 up would probably be better, I have no idea what size requirements your software has. You will also need to make sure the software you intend to use can run on BUSTER. When downloading the O/S make sure you get BUSTER, that’s the latest O/S written for the Pi 4 (my 3B+ Pi’s are running “STRETCH”). It’s a doddle to set up using NOOBS but you could also dive in the deep end and setup from scratch, doing all the config and downloads by hand. If you have never delved into the world of Pi before can I suggest you get an Micro SD card pre loaded with NOOBS (new out of box software). ![]() ![]() YouTuber Logan Paul even wore his Illustrator Pikachu around his neck during a WWE showing in April 2022.
