Yeah, I’m stretching it a bit
If I had to guess, the programmable extra buttons on a Logitech mouses.
You need to configure them in the piece of shit Logitech software, that’s not supported on Linux
Nah don’t see that being factor, the small Mikrotik is handling it very well for my small homelab, and pfsense was running on stupidly overkill 8c16t / 32gb memory because didn’t have any more fitting hardware at that point
Edit: the huge battery drain was on phone, with VPN client
I had openvpn server on pfsense couple years ago, and now wireguard on Mikrotik
Probably not any more unsafe than Windows in general. Microsoft already steals all your data, so not sure why you’d be more scared of a script that you can inspect to know exactly what it does
No idea about those, but wireguard and openvpn were terrible for battery life, only ever used if I needed to access something at home
This seems to be a normal issue with VPN apps on Android, they drain battery like crazy
Swiss flag is a big plus though
Yeah it’s a bit poking fun, but you have some extreme temperature swings wherever you live :o
Just wanted to comment on this bit.
- Gloves are more important than helmet, on the couple of fall I got, gloves protected my hands, while my head didn’t hit. However, if you’re in a severe accident a helmet can make the difference so I still recommend one.
Gloves will save you from very annoying and painful scratches on your hands, but helmet can save you from becoming vegetable or dead. I don’t think there’s any competition for which is more important, helmet any day.
Still, definitely recommend both but at very least a helmet
I’ll just comment on the con list
- look like an annoying dork (esp w neon - which also hurts the quaint factor)
You don’t have to wear Lycra to bike commute. Comfy shorts, T-shirt and trainers is fine
- have to wear a helmet (^)
Get a decent helmet, it’s way less annoying when the helmet is breathing well and sits on your head properly.
- getting sweaty, potentially “unpresentable” for work
Yeah this is pretty annoying. Best advice I can give is to have your stuff sacked into a bag attached to your bike (handlebar bag, pannier, etc). Backpack prevents the airflow in your back and causes ton of sweating
- still have to find safe parking
No comment on this one, as European I’ve never found myself in a situation where parking a bike is anything but fine
- still takes a while
May take longer but is 267% (I measured) more fun than a car
- have to find new routes to places
This should be a pro
- can’t listen to music or might die
Headphones with transparency mode on are great for cycling
- little meaningful protection against severe injury
I’m pretty sure I’ve seen seen studies suggesting bike commute lowers the chance of injury on average due to the health gains. Or something, not bothering to search for it now. Also I think this might be a bit eurocentric, since the bikelanes are not that great on many other places
- can only carry so many groceries/etc
If you plan on carrying a week worth of groceries for a family of 3, then cargo bike might just be for you. Otherwise, daily shop visits for what’s needed are fine with bicycle bags or basket
- sucks in winter
Attitude issue. I love cycling in winter
No, stereos are playing imperial march
So we have 3 languages in the family, native languages for me and wife + English as common language. It’s a huge mess and at almost 4yo she’s mixing up languages and a little bit slow on learning to speak in general, but we’ve been told that’s just how it goes
Seems like a “casually explained” copycat, but it was somewhat fun regardless of the inaccuracies
Gotta love debian stable. It has it’s kinks, but goddammit every day you boot up it’s the same as yesterday, until next major version
Gaia also has the same meaning, ground or earth
“By default” meaning it can be changed.
Then someone in the company gets their device compromised, and security starts looking what happened on the device that time. “We’d have that data, but it was deleted yesterday because of the retention policy on recall” -answer from that new guy in IT dept. Security then reminds that the company policy requires minimum 30 days retention for all logging of security events.
Not yet.
There’s a bunch of old texts about a Jewish “prophet” called Jesus, who was gathering some followers. As far as I understand, there’s no really reason not to believe the person existed.
Then again, all the Jesus lore, there’s no reason to believe his miracles were real as those made no sense and there’s no real proof besides those same texts written after Jesse’s death
