WTF? I didn’t know this was illegal. At least not yet.
- Comment on E-bikes are just bicycles with a motor. Therefore, e-bikes are motorcycles. 1 week ago:
Your statement is only partially true. In Florida, where I live, yes Florida, I know . . .there are three classes of ebikes. Class 3 ebikes must have pedals but can have a throttle and can operate without pedaling. By law, it IS still an ebike. So I believe it comes down to jurisdiction.
The rest of what you said is pretty much true and it’s a problem here too. I absolutely love riding my ebike. Mine has gears and is every bit a bike. For me the assist helps with hills (yes we have a few small ones here) and mostly wind. But it also serves another purpose. Making the ride either easier since I’m getting older or faster means I’m more likely to use the bike than a normal bike. I believe for these reasons I actually get MORE exercise with my ebike than my normal bike, at least until someone hits me with a car. So yeah, these guys with their over-powered “ebikes” are going to ruin it for the rest of us by getting us banned from trails and such.

Excellent idea.
- Comment on E-bikes are just bicycles with a motor. Therefore, e-bikes are motorcycles. 1 week ago:
It’s true that there are different classes of ebikes. Class 3 ebikes with enough power can be basically motorcycles disguised as bikes. Mine is a class 1 and very much a bicycle. If the distinction can be made that some ebikes do not require pedaling and are therefore motorcycles, by extension it is equally valid to say that ALL ebikes must have pedals so all ebikes are bikes. The truth is really somewhere in-between. Not sure how important that is to a shower thought though.

Really? Because I don’t remember pedaling my Honda 750.

Yeah, I bought 32GB of RAM about three months ago for my new computer build and last I checked it had doubled in price. Thinking about selling it for a profit. Can a computer run without RAM?

- Comment on A remote code execution vulnerability has been found in Microslop Notepad 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, still on Win10. I’m in the process of building a new computer right now. It will be duel boot, in Linux/ Win11. I intend to continue using my old Win10 machine though for some things. I’ll leave it offline.

- Comment on Is the Raspberry Pi Still an Affordable SBC? I Don't Think So 2 weeks ago:
I find that if you don’t need it to be small but just cheap you can often find used boards or even cheap new boards in the ATX, micro ATX or mini ITX form factors that have more ports and such. I think sometimes people get hung up on using a Pi “because they are cheap” not realizing that if they AREN’T cheap they can switch to a “normal” computer.

Sorry, this didn’t give me much hope. I live in the middle of a red area. “Competent leadership” is essentially science fiction. Of course, I don’t see much hope either way.

I clicked on your link. Same thing. I’m using duck such go. Wonder if that’s why.

- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 1 month ago:
So I’m simpler terms I think what you’re saying is the bottle shrinks (surface area decreases). When it does, the volume decreases too and it’s a 5:1 ratio. Correct?
I did click on the link someone posted here and the article made sense to me. Number one was structural. Which is what I would think. Number two mentioned this winter summer think but not during manufacturing ( which makes sense to me), but during shipping which still doesn’t make sense to me. What milk or even orange juice is NOT refrigerated?
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 1 month ago:
I’m sorry, I’m just not buying this explanation. I’d need more evidence.
What surface area? It’s volume we’re talking about. You mean if the plastic gets thicker, thereby reducing the interior surface area there is a corresponding decrease in volume? And it’s 5 to 1 ratio? So if the plastic is thicker by 20% there is no room for milk?
Winter bottles, summer bottles? Like the temperatures aren’t controlled because it costs money? They just compensate with a plug, what every season? Like it costs money to control the temperature of a process but it doesn’t cost money wasting plastic.
Hey, I’m not an expert on this subject and I could be wrong but from my perspective you’re just some guy on the Internet that sounds like he knows what he’s talking about.
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 1 month ago:
I agree with you.

That’s kind of funny because you literally described a person that lacks empathy. If they had empathy they wouldn’t have to wait for it to happen to them.
- Comment on I feel like half the neighbourhood is on fire and everyone is carrying on like everything is normal 1 month ago:
Those who support it, didn’t think that’s the case. They have been brainwashed to think this is all great stuff. I think a lot of them are psychopaths, having no empathy for anyone suffering. They simply don’t believe it until it happens to them and then they are outraged. It’s nuts.
