Thanks for all the driving tips, it seems there's a lot that goes in to driving in the north, beyond just worrying about ice. Just wondering, does everyone have a 4wd or awd car? Does that help at all on the road?

Ah I didn't even consider the ice scraper and winter shoes. I wouldn't even know what kind to buy for that
Wow I had no idea about this. And I was just in the process of trying to download a pdf from one of these websites. Thanks
I suppose that's true, bikes haven't changed much in the last 30 years. But maybe this is just my short term memory, but it seems like there has been a rise in specialized parts for bikes? Like thru-axles were originally only meant for high end mountain bikes, now it's standard. Same with hydraulic disc brakes, suspension, etc. Lately what's been scaring me is ebikes, which have software/controllers that aren't meant to be opened or repaired, just return to manufacturer. For now it's only high end bikes, but how long until the electronic shifters make it's way onto even the old used bike market?
1000% agree. But to Lemmy's credit, I found a greate niche community of linux and programming enthusiasts, plus I've noticed I run into Europeans more in the wild on here.
I think the fediverse has it's benefits. Still not a full replacement. Truthfully I don't think it will ever be, those niche communities will always end up being hosted where it suits them best.
This is extremely frustrating. For individual bike shops, this now means business is going to be forced into large corporate owned shops just for simple things like rebuilding a hub. Really hoping the bike community pools together and offers a generic, simple bike that is useful for stuff like touring or grocery runs, without a bunch of specialized parts. Something like the buffalo bicycle
That's the way it works? Starting out, entry level job? Get entry level resposibilty, and entry level pay. Same for midlevel, and senior positions. But this breaks down once you get to the executives. It seems like the less experience you have, better pay
I'm here! I am not on reddit anymore, and I drop into the community once a week or so, but I usually read all the posts here.
I started tracking my calories again about 3 weeks ago. I've always been aiming for 0.5-2lb/week loss, but I always ended up cutting too much when I hit a plateu, or drank too much water the day before weighing, and it wasn't sustainable.
This time around, I've been only going off a weekly moving average for actually comparing my weight. Even though my daily weight can look really noisy (±2lbs sometimes) it's showed I've been tracking about 1lb loss per week pretty closely. I wish someone told me this sooner, I devoted way too much energy trying to lose 0.14lb/day
Specifically, I think the abilty to make hydrogren from renewable resources at large-scale will change everything. Hydrogen fuel cells are more space efficient, and require less toxic manufacturing, when compared to current renewable energy generation and storage methods. If hydrogen is seen as cheaper or more green than other power sources, it will change the market completely.
Hydrogen generation is also an active research area, and just this year they've have some promising results for renewable hydrogen.
So, question, lets say people go through this process of harassing this person at the address shown in this screenshot of a tweet. Then it turns out, the user that posted this didn't do their due diligence and an innocent person ends up getting their windows smashed, phone called, etc. Does anyone actually apologize or take ownership of the damage that was caused? Any oversight on fact-checking if the info given is actually for a Nazi before throwing all this hate?
