Wahots

You will drive and you will like it! Sounds like it basically kills off biking and scooters in its entirety.

I generally recommend repotting in a mix of bark, it's probably getting aerial roots because it wants a bigger pot.

These generally grow on trees and need humidity but not extended soaks- I water mine once a week under a grow light with 80% bark soil. High humidity with very little actual standing water. They're sort of like succulents, in some ways!

Sometimes a bit of cold is fine for these plants. I believe some need a week of cold in order to flower consistently. Our drafty house is perfect for this- temperatures around 15-21c

Here is mine- the soil is out of focus, but it's primarily bark with a very small amount of other soil to keep some moisture in. I probably need to repot soonish!

Legislation and not understanding how the technology works; name a more iconic duo.

Limit it based off speed, not off "watts" lol. You can run a motor at however many watts you want; the motor controller does that. It's like tweaking the sear on an AUG.

The problem is parents buying 14 year olds emotos that can easily do 50+ mph and weigh a lot.

Getting rid of the three class system was a galaxy brain move, lol.

Have fun with emotos on shared use trails, instead of gentle class I-3 bikes doing 15.

I'd take my chances if I was 100% boned in a failing shuttle or space station. But yes, that would be a bleak re-entry.

I used to be hard-core into cars. I loved driving. Traffic, staggeringly bad insurance, and idiotic driving have largely soured me on driving. Yes, I will always have a car so I can get out to the great outdoors, but I have largely stopped driving in urban environments. The bike, bus, and train are faster, cheaper, or straight up easier than fighting an hour+ through traffic to go to a fun venue nine miles away.

Nowadays, I vote gleefully for everything that improves mass transit, bike infrastructure, and third places. There's an incredible knock-on effect with traffic reduction. The more bus rapid transit lanes, the more comprehensive the rail network, and the larger and safer the bike lanes become, the faster it is to get around the city- even if one or more options is out of commission due to highway construction or tunnel repairs. A decade ago, I sat in gridlock traffic for three hours to go two city blocks. These days, I can get across town on bike in 26 minutes. Traffic is down- it only takes about an hour to cross the city.

Western US. You don't want it, though. It's all the crappy $40 tents and stuff.

We have the same problem here in the US. Camping areas have blown up on Tik Tok, and people leave whole tents and other massive garbage. There's not enough park rangers to staunch the flow of waste and illegal camping. It's damaging lakes when people toss their camping gear into it.

They do, but only because most platforms suck ass. Logging into Origin or Microsoft stores is miserable, and social integration is rare, or broken AF. If everything was cross platform, cross play, and universal social profiles and security, I'm fine with multiple platforms.

Don't forget Rupert Murdoch. The modern architects of where we are now.

They are cool bikes, but I don't know if they are perfect for people around my height. One of my friends demoed one and we shrieked with laughter as his foot was hitting the front wheel and the folding rack on the back with every pedal stroke while turning. He's got bigger feet, but average height.

That, along with the eye-watering pricetag, made it a bit of a tough sell to us as rabid bike fans. Still, the idea is good, and we were impressed at how small it folded up. It could use some slightly bigger sizes for people six feet and up. :)

This is really sweet :)

That's super cool :)

Silksong winning GOTY and BGYSA is great. Seeing Peak up there was nice too. I was a little surprised to see BG3- great game, but I thought it was EOLed in 2024 after native steam deck support.

I like movie theaters, but most of the movies coming out aren't very interesting. I don't like superhero movies or COD/John Wick-y movies where the plot consists of people getting punched in the face and going on car chases for 15 minutes.

I miss movies like Interstellar. Weapons was the last movie I saw and really liked in theaters.

I don't think even doing that now will save the them. They'll have to bring in slave labor or stolen children to plug the gap, and it will have to be millions and millions of people.

It's also needed for their HOTAS line, but considering it has sliders, toggles, buttons and yaw, I kind of understand why. It also allows you to bind sliders to keys and such (eg, binding a slider to landing gear)

Grin figured this out a bit ago! Glad to see other companies picking it up too.

Mid 20s! It all worked out.

They look soft and pettable :)
