Once you get into bikes you realize that it becomes a sort of Ship of Theseus. So many things have become standardized you can (and will) upgrade over time and it won’t be the same bike you started with.

Rather than recommend a specific brand, go and talk to your closest bike shop (a real shop, not a chain, department store, or sporting goods store). They will tell you what is easy to source, what has recently given them headaches, and they may even help adjust the bike for your proportions. Most are also happy just to talk about bikes even if you’re not buying that day.

Side comment: Fixies, or fixed gear bikes, are less complicated and thus have fewer points if failure. Not advocating for or against… just and objective statement.

They know the same way heikegani crabs know what a samurai looks like.

Give me Windows 95 with Microsoft Plus!

Even the David S. Pumpkins Halloween Special?

I think the mess hall with a food replicator is as close as you’re going to find.

What do you think the function is of a fast food restaurant in a society with no money and instant food machines.

This is of course with Earth in mind. I have no doubt there are fast food places on Ferenginar.

If you want to skip wiring all together, pick up two Aurora Dimmers and put Hue bulbs in all your sockets. It’s not the cheapest or most privacy friendly if you’re using their hub. But going this way, you can put the dimmer near the fixture you want to control, you have no wiring whatsoever, connection to HA, and you’re completely up and running inside of 30 minutes.

I’m honestly surprised it’s taken them this long. They bought Waze in 2013. I feel like Waze has been doing this kind of ad for at least that long.

The group used “sophisticated computer scripts” and software to scour piracy services… for illegal copies of TV episodes, which they then downloaded and hosted on Jetflicks’ servers.

So they used some variant of Sick Beard?

Your fact that those three were all born the same year is what I’m finding interesting.

I don’t know. My dad is only slightly more interesting than a stack of punch cards, and I love him for that.

My parents met in a Fortran class in college.

Alright. Let’s get the ratgdo guy on this. I’d pre-order a rathvac today.

I did this a few days ago when someone asked about the history of Morning Prayer in the Church of England. It started with “Ok, so…” and ended with me emailing them eight pdfs of supporting material.

My lump charcoal smoker.

Show us the hands! Willie, in the public domain, doesn’t wear gloves. Mickey, still Disney IP, does wear gloves.

I moved to LMDE 6 when it came out, moving over from regular Mint. It’s so nice and boring… Which is exactly how I like my computer to be.

May I interest you in lolcat?
