You can be but often aren’t, especially if the pedestrian or cyclist was on the road at the time

I can pedal my carbon fibre recumbent up to 53km/h on the flat, and I pass cars in a 70kmh zone on a downhill exit ramp, so yeah speeds can get pretty high. It would be good if cycle racing organisations required road racers to wear appropriate PPE so ventilated protective gear could get into the general population and be seen as reasonable

OTOH I don’t think riders of slow bikes should be required to even wear helmets (they are required to in Australia)

Right, we bulldoze forests to make fertile land available. I agree that’s bad, I don’t want celery from that land either

I cannot eat grass, ruminant animals can. How is it inefficient for me to eat the animal rather than the grass?

Yes, even modern Linux

Some people talk like that

Women get more UTIs than men as they have shorter urethras, so infective agents are more likely to get all the way up the urethra without being pushed out by urine

Yes, that is the OP article’s point is

Because a letterhead on an odd sized piece of paper is so much harder to fake than a login over an encrypted connection

RX as opposed to TX. Receiver and transmitter in radio communications

You can get keen and competent without them being crazy

Sad isn’t it

And Outlook. My quick sig is:

-- psud

But on Outlook it is

-- <ctrl-z>psud

The op image incorrectly used the singular when they meant the plural

I use them a lot

That’s the point at which I assign a shop it’s very own email address and give it a bad phone number (not incorrect, unrouteable)

Have you not seen 2001 A Space Oddysee? Kubrick couldn’t have made a fake moon video as realistic as the film from the crews of the six landers that landed and filmed on the moon

How would Kubrick’s film have fake livestreamed to the different downlink sites? Low orbits are much much faster than orbits at lunar altitude (90 minutes versus a month). How could a LEO broadcast satellite pretend to livestream from the moon?

How could they fake it so well Russia couldn’t tell? Russia could pick up and decode the signal from the moon when the moon was up. Radio direction finders were a thing back then

Just as LLMs become better every year or less. Lots of money expects a lot from AI soon

With the exception of smart phones, most of the things that make the now bad were unrelated to the tech

Climate change is happening because changing the way the world gets its energy is slow. Fossil fuels way predate flight

Lack of social cohesion is due to the car allowing us to isolate ourselves in sparse suburbia rather than to live in neighbourhoods

Wars are older than humanity but are affecting fewer of us now than in the past, though things were even more peaceful a couple of decades ago

The capture of almost all the value of labour by the owner class could probably have happened anyway, it started before computers, perhaps it was accelerated by computers

I reckon if the sports organisations required pro cyclists to wear protective gear it’ll be more common for amateurs to also use PPE and make that stuff easier to get
