Also, the list is a bit roadie-centric. Add suspension, dropper posts and subtract "smart" indoor training, and Strava.

Bicycles are one of the few things I spend money on these days, but I have been lucky to get quite a few for free. For some reason people discard a lot of bicycles at my local dump. I have found some real classics to refurbish. Some I keep and some I have redistributed to family and friends.

No no. That makes perfect sense... He was making more bread at his new job to afford the rising cost that is baked into a new bicycle

Unless they build something that isn't locked down and obsolete shit after 5 years, it is just as fucking useless as a 5 year old iPad.

Can't upvote this enough. GE is a legend. A perfect example of build what you want and open it up to benefit a community! Thank you!

A Trump insider said Trump used to be VERY jealous of Bolsonaro's crowds.

Trump had heard they had Brazillions out there to support him on election day.

*Frantically types genius rebuttal on iPad

Does anyone know an even slighty successful musician who uses a 5 year old iPad? Now, are there any slightly successful musicians that we can think of that use a 5 year old (affordable) guitar? Or a 5 year old computer? How about a cheap drum machine or sequencer? How about giving a kid anything but a $1000 iPad (or a 5 year old paperweight)

Save us 5 years. Just put the new ipad into e-waste collection now. Meanwhile, anyone want to use all the real tools designed specifically to make music? Any kid with half a brain will spend their $1000 musicmaking budget on something useful

You are delusional to think even one of the 9 million kids living in poverty in the US would buy a $1000 iPad as a tool to make music. In 5 years that fucking $1000 iPad is only worth cracking open to harvest as e-waste. A kid buying a $50 dollar pawnshop guitar is far more likely to continue to make listenable music than some fucking dipshit buying an iPad. Maybe in 5 years they can sell that guitar for $50 to another kid who will successfully make music. Or maybe they luck out and that guitar is worth $5000. The kid who can afford to buy the $1000 iPad will hopefully use this as a chance to learn about planned obsolesence...

Here's a thought, maybe an iPad is a wasteful piece of garbage technology. Maybe this isn't a rant about technology and preventing opportunities, maybe its a rant against shitty technologies that are wasteful.

Get off all our fucking lawns.

Hey Apple, Great ad. It perfectly encapsulates what an iPad is...a shit product juiced from the tears of real creativity - A soul crushing, art destroying block of useless shit forged from real tools.

Nice! You even bargained the seller down. It's always nice to buy from enthusiasts that are encouraging. Ride safe, the XT is a perfect bike for out in the country.

I'd have a beer with these fine upstanding young lads.

I would really like to say something positive and community building to this like @CubitOom https://lemmy.world/comment/8574037
or @BmeBBenji https://lemmy.world/comment/8570341 - Or perhaps type well reasoned comments such as @SnotFickerman

But... I am compelled by my god Lemmy (Kilmister) and my only personality trait, to proselytize for projects that add value to the world.

What is more concerning (and more entertaining) is all the Windows wankers advocating on an open source forum

I love the crows and I love the peppers...but not in the same planter. Nice solution

That cat has seen things.

That is some professional looking work! I love how ikea pieces can often fit together like lego. This looks like you put a lot of work into it though. Thanks for the motivation.

I have had mostly good interactions on Kijiji. In Canada a lot of the sites have regional popularity. Before the dreaded (FB) marketplace stole the market... Craigslist was popular in Vancouver, UsedVictoria in Victoria, Kijiji - Canadawide but fading in some smaller communities. There are other Used(City) sites but UsedVictoria is the most active.

Only three?? Awwww maaan

Hahaha. I almost added a comment about the exhaust mod to this post.

The bike is named after a goat. It's never gonna be fast. Still fun tho. Mine remains stock.
