Not "one step" - he's clearly well beyond the "one step" point. That's 272.15Kg of Nutella, which is - at my local supermarket price - 272.15 * £5.30 == £1,443.40 worth.
And nobody but him /her (I didn't run the video to find out which) is going to eat it afterwards. And anyone eating that much before it goes off is inviting diabetes ...
And I thought eating Tide Pods was stupid ...

I knew someone who bought 1000 litres salad oil, but not to take a bath in it. Diesel was getting too expensive for him, so he ran his car on salad oil, which was way cheaper.

His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

That is a surprisingly bad idea.
Try an experiment: get a latex glove - one of those yellowy-white thin one, I use them for handling food like chillies - and pour some olive oil in the palm. rub your hands together for a few minutes and look at what happens to the glove.
The same exact thing is happening to the fuel injector seals on your mates engine ...

Older Diesel engines will be fine. The main issue is stopping the oil getting too thick in cold weather, i.e. any British summer except 1976 and 2018.

It was a while ago. We were still students and his car was already ancient back then. That's also the reason why he did not have much money. When he drove around with the car, it looked like he was on fire and it smelled like McDonald's.
Modern Diesel engines certainly would get some problems.

That bath will probably not harm you if you only do it once. It's still wasteful and dumb.

Is the CP hive-mind aware of any such beast? I have unearthed some old hi-fi gear that I forgot I had, and plan to put it into my mancave office. However, I don't fancy having a second CD library, but nor do I want to have to rip and then play. At present I am ripping with Exact Audio Copy, and playing with WinAmp, but it would be really nice to do both at the same time.
My google-fu and bingleing have proved unequal to the task. I know it is possible with a five hundred quid bit of hardware, but has it been done with WinTen software?

Try looking 'Ion' products I am pretty sure they do an LP converter. I have one of there Tape Cassette to MP's widgets that works quite well using a iTunes, not used it Win10 only XP & 7 to date. My advice is too MP3 anything on Write-able CD's as they have broken down and become unplayable after a while.

Thanks for that - I have just had a quick look at their site and will have a proper browse later.

I have a spare USB3 2TB drive that I am planning on using, but I usually go for FLAC or WMA lossless.

I came across them in one of those news paper adds (while at my parents). I get the impression they are re-badge Chinese products, use battery only not the mains with them!

What's wrong with Windows Media Player? AFAIK, it's still present in the Win10 install.

That's weird! When I bought a new laptop in February, it had WinTen Home, and no WMP. About a month later I upgraded to Pro, and never thought to check if it was there - it is!
I shall have a play to see if I can do both at once.

Thanks for the pointer. All set up and on a roll, listening and ripping. Currently on Mozart Piano Concerto No.8, and going for all 27!

Not that I ever have a clue how to figure these things out, but this one reminds me of so called "agile management." And what do you know, it's a 5 letter word and a 10 letter word.

It's not correct but I had to upvote it for making me laugh.

I got the first word hours ago but I'm still struggling for the second - am I right in thinking it starts with an 'S'?

It doesn't. The clue is a lot more literal than you would think.

Legal Compliance?
Don't know how legal would be created. Compliance is what determines code of practice.
