You definitely shouldn't be drinking that if your throat is swelling, carry Benadryl in your wallet in case you do. You should probably get an allergy test too...

This. And when we lift people up, it generally helps get people out of poverty and become contributing members of society.

It's not a hand out, it's a hand up. And for those that dgaf about helping their neighbors, it also is generally cheaper to help people once and get them squared away, vs being screwed up for life, committing crimes and using up tax dollars on police/justice/jail/cleanup resources.

In short, literally everyone should be on the same page. It's the moral and economically right thing to do, lol.

Only if nobody else is present. This is more for quiet city areas where you have a clear line of sight, and nobody is even around. If someone is at a stop sign, you legally have to stop too.

Chain is toast, chainring might also need to be replaced. The brake cable probably needs replacing if the brakes don't work. The brake pads might also need to be replaced, and both tire tubes probably either need to be replaced or patched.

If it's purely just for learning, go for it. But that might be a lot of money in tools / parts and a significant amount of time. I'd probably buy a bike that is less thrashed.

Fwiw, you can have a perfectly normal bike and still spend lots of time learning to fix it. I'd lean towards that, I think.

Hal0 4 and Below Zero come to mind. Facebook buying beatsaber and ruining it with their filthy little hands, too. It took a huge nosedive in quality.

Thanks!

Do people really fold their folding bikes up like, every time they use one? The Radcity one my spouse uses is a huge PITA to fold up, and it's barely more portable than a small electric bike.

Can you link the source image?

Can't the police just use ebikes if they are going between freddies and couch park?

Yep, there's a fuckload of minerals on the moon, and in our solar system. Enough metals to probably crash a handful of industries on Earth. The moon would be a useful gateway to many of the outer planets since it's gravity is weaker, and there's no atmosphere, in addition to the raw materials.

For mining, refueling* and power generation*, the moon makes a ton of sense.

*Some of these require technologies we don't yet have, but may soon.

That looks like a very good swing in the background :)

It's a cool plant. I've almost memorized my favorite plant book. Almost. Apparently it's not actually native, it's introduced from Europe!
