2 and 3 are massive. I’m on Mastodon, but am having a much better time on Bluesky. Mastodon is full of gatekeeping and policing and people complaining - Bluesky is just fun and interesting, like Twitter 12 years ago

At this stage it’s a trope that people imitate, perhaps without really thinking about it. Originally it was almost certainly an ironic joke about the value of the medals, playing on the old-fashioned bite tests that would be used for for items of dubious worth
If they’re like the originals, let’s hope nobody ever needs to control them with the slightest bit of moisture on their hands.
“can be” is doing some heavy lifting here. I confidently predict the amount actually recycled is a fraction of one percent
If anyone finds themselves in this position, you should ignore everything else and just look at the ERTO size, which should be on the tyre itself. This is a standard way of measuring tyres and wheels, and is much better than the old ways
Hark at Simeon Stylites here
Never read anything into a one-off result. You need to see how you get on over multiple occasions to have any idea if there’s a pattern. Keep going! (Because by the time you’ve got more data points, you’ll also be fitter 😉)
I got some of those Chipolo trackers shown in the photo. So far I’m pretty disappointed. Based on the locations being reported, I’m pretty sure my phone is the only one in my city working on the Find my Device system, and even that is intermittent. For example, I’ve left my bike, which has a Chipolo tracker hidden on it, in public places such as a busy train station. After two days on the station platform - with goodness knows how many Android phones passing by - the bike is still showing as being at home in my garage. Like, it didn’t even get logged on my own phone as I cycled to the station and left the bike and tracker there. The system really isn’t up to speed yet
If you ask, some places can do early check-in. You might have to pay for it, because it disrupts their routine
Thanks. I’ve never blocked anyone, so it won’t be that. Could be the other thing
It’s not just Sync, I find. I’ve had this issue with other Lemmy apps yoo
I’ve just tested this and it didn’t work. I think this issue, of posts saying there is 1 comment when there are none, is some sort of Lemmy-wide issue. It drives me crazy, as it’s impossible to know whether posts have a comment or not without looking at each individually.
I wonder if my colleagues have picked up on the fact that when I start an email “Dear-” rather than “Hi-”, it means I’m annoyed with them
Rain Alarm! It’s great, and you can customise alerts too
The other annoying thing they (esp. MS) do is pop up messages like “The whole process of saving files has changed while you were asleep [learn more][got it]” and here, when you need it, there’s never an option for “remind me later”. So you either have to stop what you’re doing and go and read a massive blog entry that’s not actually relevant to the task in hand or you need to dismiss the message and never be able to find it when it’s actually relevant
Got to say, I’d be tempted by the carbon of the two. It’s going to be an open mould Chinese frame, but there are lots of good ones of those around. The big consideration at this point is getting a good frame and wheels - you’ll slowly upgrade other components over time anyway. Both bikes are 9 speed (one is definitely Sora and the other sounds like Sora too). The Triban is heavier and, although the wheel weight isn’t given for the other bike, I suspect they’ll be a bit lighter.
Ultimately, the right bike is the one that would put the biggest smile on your face, and without testing both it’ll be hard to know which that is. But do have a good look at the carbon bike, and consider upgrading the brakes to Spyre hydro calipers before long
Always good to get the US perspective on an article about Amsterdam
Kagi is good, but for rare topics try search.marginalia.nu
But the government regulation will never come without a LOT of voters feeling very unhappy, so perhaps don’t tell people they shouldn’t feel unhappy about the situation?
If people are driving with appropriate skill and care, the number driving into large, well-lit buildings should be approximately zero per year. It sounds like you’re willing to excuse a lot of bad driving
