My pet peeve is people cycling with a helmet but not doing it up. It’s so blatantly stupid- you get none of the benefits, and all of the negatives.

I’m guessing not, if they were US dollars- They’re getting more and more worthless outside the country.

Ok I lost respect for you when you said ‘reading and righting’ but that line right there gained it all back and then some, well done!

Cycling helmets should not be mandated. If someone is dumb enough to cycle without one, that’s on them.

I believe significantly more people would cycle if helmets were not required by law.

The natural extension of this is that everyone should live in one big megacity. Is this what you want?

I would allow that company to sell poison.

But I would not allow them to market it as health food.

If a party campaigns on far right ideals, and get elected, then fair enough, that’s democracy. Sometimes you have to admit that your views are not wanted.

However, if a far right party campaigns on truth and love and free kittens for everyone, then instead is shown to be liars and haters and give out free guns, then I would have an issue.

Free speech is only allowed if you agree with it, huh?

It’s like banning marijuana and then expecting people to just not do it.

Formula 1 races average about 200kph, with a top speed of 375. These are the best of the best professionally trained drivers in multimillion dollar equipment tailored to them and designed to keep them (and others) safe at those speeds.

300km/h on the highway is essentially suicide by stupidity, not to mention manslaughter for whoever you hit. You are travelling fast enough that you literally don’t have time to react to something several hundred metres in front of you.

150 is really fast, 200 is stupid fast, and 300 is really fucking stupid fast.

Baby steps… We didn’t shoot for the moon on our first launch.

There’s dice?

Wow I have no idea how this game works.

If I haven’t had my daily coffee yet, then a cafe latte. If it’s a decent coffee place (barista with fashionably tight jeans, arm tattoos, possibly wearing a Ramones shirt) I’ll go for a piccolo. If it’s a really good coffee place (barista with waxed moustache and/or ironic neck tattoos) then I’ll get a macchiato.

For an evening occasion, I’ll generally have a non-alcoholic cider, while debating with people around me whether that’s just the same as sparkling apple juice.

Forgive me.

Your friendly local office supplies shop would be happy to print and laminate any image at any size you wish.

Legitimate question… Why?

My understanding is that cookies were generally just used as a fingerprint- it’s just a unique ID that is used to tie your device to their database, which is where the information is kept.

Unleash nuclear hellfire onto few thousand innocent Japanese and then be smug about it for generations.

You don’t necessarily need to get two straight away, though. If you’ve been a couple times and used the hire shoes, sweet. You’re getting into it, you reckon you’ll probably keep going, time to buy some shoes. I’d actually advise against it. Climbing shoe rubber varies from soft to really bloody soft, and you dragging it all over the wall wears it through really quick.

So I’d suggest spending quite a few sessions in those hire shoes, really focusing on your footwork. When you can confidently stick your feet first go while climbing, and not have to adjust your feet constantly, you’re ready for your own shoes. Shred someone else’s until you are confident you can make yours last.

I understand you are trying to simplify things, and I appreciate that we, a hobbyists, need to do this to open up the field to more people. Accessibility is a great thing, but we do need to make sure that potential Roemann examples are prevented from establishing themselves in the governors ethos. There’s a whole lot to VX, and if people are using j-discs and their induction coefficient inverts due to misalignment of the rotorcore (or, god forbid, any of the main encapsulated rails), they’re going to have a bad time. Simple is good, but paradoxically, you need to have a thorough understanding of the more complex parts of this hobby before you can simplify it. The hunchback that taught me went through seventeen flange coupling cycles before they were even allowed to touch the resonance spectroscopy imaging chamber, even at the low end of hypersonic capture waves. To this day, they are still cautious when trying to simplify the pressure transducer startup sequence- and they’re using the more modern Reeistack implementation. Safety first, people. Understand what you’re messing with, because stray glycemic bonded couplings will absolutely kill you.
