Seems like another bandaid solution that doesn’t fix the actual infrastructure problem. Get ready for the day in court where a victim is asked what they were doing on public roads with a non C-V2X bicycle 🙄

counterpoint.

They use the stock android interface. They’re (oversimplification but) basically android with all the proprietary and Google stuff removed.

I know all the tech layoffs lately are due to corporate financial greed, but I can’t help to feel like it’s just a big “fuck you” to everyone enjoying the newfound freedom of remote work, to flood the job market with people desperate enough that they have to take a 100% in office role again.

Woah. This is a game changer. Thank you!

NixOS is actually what I was considering! I like the immutable aspects of it but the setup will require me to find some downtime in order to get started.

My immediate thoughts as a fedora user: Fedora is looked at as a bleeding edge testing distro for what eventually goes into red hat. By using fedora, I am sort of a beta tester for ibm, and am in some ways contributing to the improvement of a distribution (red hat) that goes against what I believe a Linux distribution should do. Given that, should I distro hop?

Or is my brain just trying to make me distro hop again?

I’ve been a happy fedora user for some time now. Maybe it’s time to start distrohopping again.

One can hope. I read an article recently that said in the US, millennials and gen z should be the largest voting bloc by 2028. The problem is, how many of them are voting? In my anecdotal experience, very few of my millennial peers vote. We’re gonna need a way to fight the doomerism mindset with younger people and make them realize we have the numbers to turn this around.

Only Car lite here. I only own an ebike, but my partner owns a car, that we use for trips out of the city, mostly. Props for going car free in Seattle! The infrastructure there, depending on where you’re at, is pretty good from what I’ve seen. I’ve considered trying to take my bike up via amtrak next time I visit instead of driving. maybe someday.

it isn’t limited to books but there is also:

Honestly, I always saw the debateAVegan sub as a containment chamber to send omnis who popped up in other vegan subs trying to debate.

shopping/groceries, picking up food or going out to eat, usps/fedex trips, dropping off/picking up company equipment. Basically, anything I would have used a small city car for, but also for bike rides to just get out of the house for a bit. Bikes really take the worst part of a day and turn it into the best part.

I’m riding a RadCity Stepthru 3, from Rad Power Bikes. It’s more affordable than a lot of the Bosch model bikes, but unfortunately the direct to consumer model does cut out local bike shops, which I’m not super in love with. I’m hoping that as more states roll out ebike rebates, more expensive bikes (like Tern, or even Urban Arrow) can become a more realistic option for people who are on the fence on the idea of switching from a car to a utility or cargo bike. I have put over 1000 miles on it in the last year (would have been a lot more if I didn’t work from home😁), and it’s made me a believer that bikes > cars for sure.
