snails are more hovercraft tbh

I was unaware he had cancer lol

I just realized I genuinely thought biden died by now. I don’t even know why.

I gave the demo a shot and it felt nigh instantly sauceless, I think “Our understanding is that disco elysium fans now don’t like cops anymore” is as good as an explanation as any. It feels deserved given the whole backstory but yet still sort of a shame, a good discolike about a spy does have potential precisely because spies and cops suck

The energy your brakes have to absorb to stop, and with that the stopping distance and wear, almost doubles.

The stopping distance is mostly a given but otherwise this is mostly a non issue despite getting brought up a lot. Halfway competently maintained V-Brakes which are easy as hell to service will block a tyre which is much more the limiting factor on a bicycle. As in: It’s not that hard to do 45kmh on an acoustic bike and v-brakes are fine for that, even with the bit of weight all the electronics add.

When I bought my first bike I got a Class 3 because I’m getting 40%~ more speed for the same price. I could arrive at my destination 40% faster than I do on my cargo bike.

I see the idea but I think that generally never works out in urban areas fairly regardless of mode of transportation bar jogging instead of walking and from my experience in the EU, being able to use paved trails, footpaths and such generally gets you to places much faster compared to more max speed both due to being able to cut across certain infrastructure instead of taking the long way around and the fact that things like bicycle + pedestrian infrastructure doesn’t usually have any sort of meaningful traffic or traffic lights in the way that car infrastructure does

yeah the beauty and the beast squad is genuinely just bad but in a saving grace sort of way kojima also sexualizes dudes a lot, tends to be more generally horny than sexist

my god that route looks miserable to do an imperial century on

It’s such a conceptually idiotic design because being a cop is already voluntary. There’s no cop draft. Under what circumstances would you ever want the kind of person to do cop shit who can’t even become a cop? Like the best reason for it would be they’re simply too incompetent and then every reason after that just gets progressively darker.

I sort of get it in the march of progress lib sense but even then most heads of state, that all also have access to drones, somehow managed to not bomb doctors without borders

It’s insane to me how true this holds for the various conflicts in the middle east. This is our supertank, it is nigh unkillable due to a hardkill system. Except when two dudes shoot rockets at it. Or like one dude shoots a rocket after somebody shoots a decoy rocket at it. This is our air defense system, nobody involved in the process has ever heard of the concept of chaff.

EDIT: I think the early years of the ukraine war before it evolved into WW1 but drones fully gets an honorable mention for “what do you mean russia has good AD systems”

: the apocalypse can be localized

kind of hate to say but it because this does rule but the apocalypse that has LeMans racecars is carbrain.

what?

no this is rich dipshit food and they will eat the maggots for the full experience . Citation needed indeed, I say!

It’s inspired by DE and the reason I think it really manages to capture the same essence is that like DE it’s born out of like one guy (and probably some friends’) homebrew DnD Setting. It really has that feel that this is a world that exists beyond this game. Also otherwise pretty well written and competent and with so many changes it’s not just a carbon copy but its own thing. Would highly recommend if you liked DE.

Oh, good tip then I was genuinely unaware. Guess that’s regulation based or something then

I mean all tyres have a maximum PSI but the question I have is whether wherever you are they don’t print a range on them.

Every bicycle tyre in germany I’ve come caross has something like “2,4 - 4,0 bar” embossed on one of the sides to give you a range of pressure and not just “blows up after 4”. This might of course be different elsewhere, hence me asking

That’s often the MAX PSI and aside from being uncomfortable, it is on the edge of where your tire might wear prematurely or worse. Instead use an online calculator like the Silca one where you put in your weight and the tire width and butyl tubes and cat 1 gravel. Your tire width is printed on the sidewall. If it’s around 32 mm you will end up between 30-50 psi depending on how much you weigh. Lower PSI = a comfy ride so long as you’re within a safe and controlled range. The tire will absorb vibrations.

Do tyres where you are not give you a range? Genuine question because I was unaware that there are ones that don’t do that excluding maybe kids bikes that nobody cares about or whatever

To add to what the others have said: an old road cycling hack is bring a newspaper or something to put flat on your chest if it gets too chilly. Does a reasonably good job at blocking wind.

Also toes can get rather cold. Some of this can be alleviated by just moving them on the bike, cheapest hack otherwise is just plastic bag over shoe

I meant mostly the other moving parts that aren’t the chain if you WD40’d them
