Yes, but also no - if an ebike is replacing a car trip, it's using 2 orders of magnitude less resources. As an example, this morning I had to take my kiddo to her summer camp, and it's about 5 miles one way. I'm relatively fit, but without electric assistance I'd have driven.
Here in the US, we've built ourselves into a bunch of low-density suburbs - e-bikes represent an incredible opportunity to reduce carbon emissions now, without needing to demolish entire communities and rebuild them more densely.
Am I just missing where the setting is to blur NSFW images before opening the post? Or is this something that's yet to be implemented? I'm subscribed to a couple of NSFW communities and not having the blur can make opening the app a bit awkward at times
I play Just Cause 4 every once in a while, and ironically because of that mindlessness it's almost the perfect game to pick up and play in short bursts - go in, blow some shit up, be done in 20 minutes. It has its appeal because I know I can just pick it up, where bigger story games like Cyberpunk or Fallout you spend a few minutes every time you start up going "now where was I..."
I'm not sure that checks rate any better in security here, or in reliability. The check doesn't have any mechanism within it to verify that there's actually money to be moved, and doesn't guarantee that the payment is yours irrevocably. It also doesn't verify the actual intent to move money, or that the writer of the check is authorized to do so. I get that digital systems have vulnerabilities but let's not pretend that this paper system doesn't.
Seriously - it's 2023, why are we still moving money around with paper IOUs
Same thoughts here - it's like you had to be in it at the very beginning to have any enjoyment - otherwise your first hours in the game are just getting killed over and over again
I was skeptical of CTEs for a long time. I just used subqueries when I could in T SQL, and then I got a new job and my new company used Postgres. In the adaptation process I took a new look at CTEs and became a convert - it's just nicer and easier to read the intermediate step than as a subquery
I can't speak to your ride, but I have no hesitation riding my ebike in the rain. I've got a Shimano mid drive designed for EMTBs, if it can handle muddy MTB trails a little rain isn't going to hurt it
