My new (used) city bike. Mostly used for the train station and dog running.
I still include Google results in my Searx.
Definitely miss the good ol’ days where it was optimized to give the best results. Same goes for Netflix recommendations back in the the DVD mailer days…
I’ve had simple, single-speed back-pedal braking bikes for more than twenty years as my primary transportation.
It’s not that I’m disinterested in other bikes but just don’t want to compromise on things you mentioned like maintainability.
I want a bike that will last for decades, even if it trades hands many times. I’ve bought a new bike in the past but my current daily ride is older than I am.
My primary mode of transportation is a bike and IMO not all e-bikes are real bikes.
Pedal-assist sure but if there is a throttle (and pedaling is optional) then I consider it a moped.
Not that I’m opposed to mopeds…
I live in a similar climate and use rain pants.
We have I-Root and K-Root in Europe, these are certainly used…
I used to work in Grasshopper for parametric models but now I mostly reach for OpenSCAD.
All the devs I know use SO…
So the tankie idiots join the bigger pool of non-tankie idiots. How will we ever survive…
In my experience, you actually need more people to maintain and extend existing software compared to the initial build out.
Usually because of scalability concerns, increasing complexity of the system and technical debt coming due.
I use:
Never found it useful to save configs from my slicer.
Already bailed when they blocked account sharing…

Finally, a negative feedback loop…
I prefer to bike 5 minutes to the train station rather than taking the metro one stop.
No thanks…
In the Netherlands we have quite good infrastructure for bikes, but e-bikes/scooters going >25kph really fuck up the safety.
I’m with OP, if you want to go that fast you should be in the road.
The pong clone, likely Tennis, is in one of OPs photos.
