[R] Average "bike lane" experience in Los Angeles
  • I remember this stretch. It was somehow worse than the parts of the city I rode through with no lanes.

  • OpenStreetMap migrates to Debian 12
  • Really starting to think about jumping from Ubuntu on both my servers and my desktops. What would I lose?

  • Alright, raise your hand if this is you
  • 🖐️🖐️🖐️🖐️🖐️🖐️🤓

  • Was she in any comic?

    Where is this character?

    What are some tools you need when starting to do basic DIY Mechanical work and possible home improvement in the future.
  • Look for a tool library near you. See if you can borrow some from neighbors. You'll get the hang of doing jobs, and what good vs bad tools feel like.

  • First things first
  • Shitass NYPD also has surface to air missiles.

  • Musk accuses Trump whistleblower Vindman of ‘treason,’ says ‘he will pay’
  • Nah, for some things it's not left vs right, it's right vs wrong.

  • Republican senator introduces bill to abolish US Department of Education
  • I hate how accurate this kinda feels 😮‍💨

    Maybe we should try nation-states as an idea?

  • 'You deceived millions of us!': Trump fans tell him they're outraged over Navy pick
  • Meh, calm down there, unhappy.

    We're still doing ok and building our connections just fine.

    Have a nice day, if you are actually able 😎

  • Trump's Border Czar Says “No One’s Off the Table” When It Comes to Mass Deportations
  • Mother fuck, that's evil as hell. Imagine contributing to the economy, raising kids and being good neighbors for years without fail. Suddenly pop you're in a tent camp, and all that that implies 😡

  • Preferred Pronouns
  • Damn you beat me to it lmao

  • Preferred Pronouns
  • I was more worried about the handkerchief code... White in right rear pocket translates to... Well take a look: http://www.onyxnynortheast.org/hanky-code-introduction

    😂

  • Whole Foods Workers File for First-Ever Union, Defying Amazon
  • Stop eating the paint chips bro. They even give you a pamphlet with the lease 🙄

  • Roses are red
  • Who is this? She's gorgeous.

  • Liz Kendall says young people who won’t take up work will lose benefits
  • Yes, they shouldn't have to. Bad societies are created solely with punishments, good societies give back as much as they received from the individuals.

    I'd say only scaredy cats can be controlled via punishment. Being homeless is both a punishment and a warning to others.

  • Elysian production facility in Georgetown shut down by Anheuser-Busch after unionizing
  • Oh yeah, it's tiny, like maybe 25 tables and some booths. Eh I don't know why I even asked about asking your buddy. Maybe it'll job their memory to write stuff down for the anti-union case?

    Enshittification in the real world.

  • NYC passes congestion pricing, finally
  • Experiment for NYC at least haha. I didn't notice San Diego ever having conversation pricing though.

  • Was this BS always in the EULA ?
  • Well at least I'd know where the boundaries are. I don't want to have to distill a 10pg eula to it's core tenets, is rather plain language for most of it, with technical legal language only where it's critical, and not as an addendum or post script.

    If people actually understand what the limits are, the creators can get useful feedback on what the community likes or doesn't about the terms.

  • Fighter jets?

    Anyone else hear these jets? They're zipping, and how.

    E: Blue Angels doing some practice.

    Stuck between an XSR900 or a z900rs

    Anyone have input here?

    I'm trying to decide which I like, yammie noob had a cool vid comparing the two with the xsr seemingly on top, but spec-wise, the z900 should be wild. I'm aware there are tune and exhaust kits to wake the undertuned z900 up.

    I like spirited riding, but mostly on straights as I roar off to a campsite in the mountains. What do you folks think?

    Google Pay alternative?

    Hey there, I'm looking for an alternative to Google pay that'll allow me to use NFC payments etc. Thoughts?

    I don't have a Google account, nor am I interested in opening one.

    E: Just to clarify, the payment part would be convenient, more annoying is how I don't get to use a single place for my subway/gym/ticketmaster passes.

    Who kicks a sparkplug??

    What a way to start the day. Had a spare, so it added a few minutes to my morning. Carefully cleaned the dust from around the plug, swapped, started and rode.

    NBD, but what the fuck?

    Seattle cheat code 2: the cheating-ing

    12

    Seattle feels like a cheat code for this community

    Exploring the city, it feels both dark and somehow inviting. New experience for sure.

    Wish I could figure out how to attach multiple photos in voyager.

    Gluten free?

    Hey everyone, does anyone know how to make gluten free bread that might be as soft and fluffy as that previously posted Japanese milk bread appears to be?

    Salton sea restoration effort is allocated $70 million by the Biden-Harris administration

    So, after watching "Plagues and pleasures on the Salton sea" (available on YouTube for free), I decided to look into what was happening to it.

    Looks like we actually may help with restoration. But what does that mean, where are we getting the water for it? Will that money actually get to us?

    Q: examples of guy's alt?

    Hey there, Looking for some inspiration for guys getups. Lots of sites like dollskill etc have really limited options for dudes (but that's the case generally).

    Thanks for any ideas you'd be kind enough to share!

    Time-Memory Tradeoff Attacks on Signal & TLS1.3

    Some interesting ideas on reducing the time to decrypt certain ciphered info, in spite of axolotl's large key-size.

    Anyone ride in Seattle?

    How's the weather up there for riding? Not afraid of water, just careful with it.

    Prusa MK3s+, PETG and a 0.6 nozzle

    Hey everyone.

    I built an mk3s+ from its kit form successfully, tested a few PLA prints with the stock 0.4 nozzle.

    I've set prusaslicer to use a 0.6 nozzle now that I've upgraded, and am using PETG. Prints look pretty bad, in spite of calibrating z-offset etc.

    If you were doing something like this for the first time, what would your setup steps be like?

    To be specific, using a diamondback 0.6 nozzle, matterhackers PETG at 235c.

    Issues I'm seeing are a really bad loss of detail, lots of stringing, etc.

    eta: added a photo of a moderately post-processed part. Notice how rough the top surface looks, there's a disconnect between perimeter loops, etc.
