I actually coated my wires in a thin layer of dish soap. My asshole cat took one chomp - one - and was done with it. Now I don’t need to coat my new wires.
Really, bikes should have their own dedicated lanes too (which some cities do have). Or laws should be changed to allow cyclists to share the sidewalk with pedestrians, but that’s a controversial opinion. I know in my city, cyclists are a whole other issue - they flout all the laws by riding the wrong way down the street, switching from the road to the sidewalk without getting off their bikes, they run red lights and stop signs, and yet when they get hit by a vehicle somehow it’s the vehicle driver’s fault. But that’s an entirely different conversation.
Don’t share the street is what I’m getting at. I can’t and won’t share the sidewalk with my car, why should I share the street with pedestrians? The picture in the OP is not a kid running into the street for a sec to get a runaway ball. It’s people walking down the street with a sidewalk mere feet away from them. This isn’t the 1800s where there is no sidewalk and you had to contend with horses. Now there are multiple thousand pound death machines. Have a little regard for your own safety and use the dedicated lanes for people.
You specifically, probably wouldn’t. But this opens up avenues for people who do not (or cannot) buy a console for whatever reason but have a smartphone.
Windows has been alternating between good and crap for decades. ME, crap. XP, good. Vista, crap. 7, good. 8/8.1, crap. 10, good…ish. 11, steaming feces. 12 will probably be at least half decent.
