  • Yeah, I figured this out as a teenager. We had a half-marathon through rough terrain (gravel, sand, tree roots etc.). I had my 200€ bike from Facebook and a sports t-shirt from school. I felt very out of place with all these big men in their tight spandex suits and decked out bikes.

    I passed most of them and finished 13th out of 130 (which is not amazing, but definitely not bad).












  • Yeah, this is a huge issue with Linux. It works out of the box, and usually in a much much better way than Windows. However, if you come across a small annoying issue, it can be either a breeze to fix with a simple command or a complete nightmare due to incompatibility issues.

    I’m a professional software developer and IT technician, and have been for many years. And I still couldn’t get my grandma’s fucking printer to work on Ubuntu after 3 hours of debugging.

    The good news is that the more people switch to Linux, use it, come across annoying issues and complain about them, the faster they get fixed and manufacturers develop their products with Linux in mind.

    I know this is fuckcars, but I personally I think it makes sense. Our brothers in Lithuania are also doing it (tbf there needs to be a specific sign next to the light saying you can do it).

    The less people spend waiting on pointless traffic lights, the faster cars get to their destination, the less cars there are on the street. At least that’s how I view it.

    All of this is of course keeping in mind to always yield to a pedestrian.
