many people I met during my time in SF said they “hated Caltrain”, come to find out they’d never actually taken it. I took it all the time from SF to Palo Alto and it was always fast, easy, and reliable.

I just can’t copy anything from the URL bar at all.

Will this fix copying from the url bar in kde?

Great, now my city can be overrun with cars in the simulation too.

Rural places can have public transit. Many rural communities in other countries are served by busses.

Liquor licenses should not be granted to establishments without public transit during business hours.

The American idea of DRIVING TO THE BAR, many of which have parking lots, is completely an utterly unacceptable.

Bandwidth was the wrong choice of words. Storage space is more what I meant.

I don’t understand why lemmy caches photos in the first place? Like surely it’s quicker, easier, and lower bandwidth to just store a url to the original source.

Yea I absolutely cannot imagine having to move my entire hand to a arrow cluster.

Right Thumb mod + hjkl gang

why not just use a JST connector instead of soldering it? What board are you running?

Right now just used a wired earbud/mid under the helmet.

Looking at the AnyTone AT-D878UVII PLUS which has bluetooth, so may work to connect to the Cardo. If I wind up grabbing it I’ll give an update.

I use the radio mostly for motoreffing bike races, so the low speeds mean fiddling with the HT isn’t too bad and you can still hear the radio.

I’ve done a few BDRs with the Kreiga bags (32L + 22L + 12L) with absolutely no issues. I’ve low sided through a deep puddle, dragged it through a rocky stream after running aground and dropping the bike, and rode through a typhoon at highway speeds.

Absolutely no issues with durability or water proofing.

I put all my clothes in the 32L, my laptop in a pelican case and other misc (mini-pump, plugs, first aid) in the 22L, and all my camping gear in the 12L. I strap the tent to the top of the 32L with some rokstraps.

It’s the Vert Rack from 2x2 Cycles.

Amazing. I did this ride two years ago. Moab was definitely the highlight of the trip.

Also shout out to the Keriga bags.

Finally got the chance to try out this motorcycle bike rack I got last year. Worked like a charm, couldn’t even tell it was there honestly. A bit more crosswind on bridges but nothing more than a pillion would give.

It admittedly looks ridiculous, but that’s kinda half the fun. Definitely got some looks going down the road.

Need to find a way to store the motorcycle helmet at the destination though since it takes the place of a top box.

I think in a lot of ways, the answer to the question requires honest self reflection. It’s exceptionally easy to tell ourselves we’ll be responsible rider, always wear the gear, ride defensively. It’s another thing to actually do those things while on the bike.

Motorcycles will always be more dangerous than driving, but it’s reasonably on par with other risky hobbies with the right mindset and self control.
