Given that I don’t have any personal gain from proliferating biking as a means of personal transportation, I’d rather consider myself a bike preacher.

A decent bike needn’t be expensive. For as little as 300€, you can have a new bike that’ll do just fine for recreational use and simple commutes. Used bikes can usually be had really cheap, too, but for that you’d best know how to check the components and what to look for.
Race bikes, mountain bikes and pedelecs are a different thing, but those are either specialty sports equipment or luxury items.
Either way, (normal) bikes are easy and cheap to maintain, if used correctly.
Your thoughts are valid and I agree – in principle.
The proportionate punishment does, however, depend on the severity of the violation. In an academic context, there are few things as severe as blatant plagiarism. Being caught in not just cheating but brazenly copy-pasting other people’s work can imho be appropriately punished with expulsion, be it in the US or elsewhere.
On the flip side, all threat of consequences works as a deterrent only when there’s the expectation to be caught and punished.
By always catching but never handing out punishment to kids violating rules, you only teach them that consequences are inconsequential.
That’s our rule. We’re seven players and on the day before our regular date, we make a roll call. 3 or more players in means game day, otherwise it’s the next week. Works like a charm.
The original meme template has the guy leaving without looking back due to whatever he sees on the woman’s cupboard, implying that there are private ideologies/hobbies/affiliations so repulsive that you’d back out of a one night stand at the last moment.
In this variation of the meme, what he spots on the cupboard seems to be so attractive to him that they have sex until he is exsanguinated, or “pumped empty”.
Property acquisition in the US more expensive than in Europe? I think not, at least for the immense swaths of land that make up most of the US’ land mass.
The legal fees I see, but that’s why most developed nations have legislature for disowning property owners of land necessary for infrastructure at a set compensation. Whether that’s fair or just is up for ideological debate, I’m sure.
The Commission transmitted a proposal to the European Parliament. The Parliament and the European Council have to discuss and pass the proposal for it to go into effect.
It’d be more fitting to mandate every product to include its ecological price. Disposable vapes, for example, would disappear instantly.
Oooooh, that’s a neat idea in light of the current EU legislation concerning the Right to Repair: Introduce a mandatory, highly visible, and standardized seal that all electronic devices have to display on the front of their box:
Repairable
or
Disposable
I hope Unity’s legal team is prepared.
I really hope they’re not, because this practice needs to crash and burn brightly as a warning beacon to other corpos’ grubby fingers.
Ham, cheese, and mayo it is.
I’ll raise you some mozzarella.
What about potato salad, noodle salad and similar dishes containing cooked components?
Tuna and mayo it is.
More like when someone leaves a fingerprint on actual professional image editing equipment (refer to this insightful post by another lemmyng) and just rubbing spit on the screen will damage to screen.
For a phone screen, this cloth is overkill and absolutely unnecessary. You should put a sacrificial glass screen over expensive-to-replace phone screens anyway.
You are both correct, since 110 Flaffenheit equals both 7.13 urinal ounces and 7.47 stool ounces, as well as exactly 11 southern-hemisphere-unleaded-petrol-ounces. The latter is only incidental, though, since the conversion factor isn’t 10 but 8.97 with an added conversion constant of 11.33 Flaffenheit.
In what scenario is Fahrenheit more intuitive to someone who grew up with neither of the two systems?
Seeing that deploying airbags hit like a fist to the face and regularly break noses, maybe reframing airbags as airbombs would suffice as a deterrent.
