I just wiped out on my e-road bike going a bit too fast around a corner on a damp morning when roads were slick, and I feel like the speed I took the corner at would've resulted in the same thing on a motorcycle 😂

I look at bikes like yours here and I wonder how different does it feel from riding on a motorcycle? Magnitudes lighter of course. I've never ever driven a motorcycle, wouldn't mind a crotch rocket, got to ride on the back of a chopper a few times.

I wasn't much for helmets until I converted my road bike. I could even use an armored jacket or something lol

I've been using RIF and old.reddit.com for as long as they existed. Reddit since the big Digg transition. Hope to never see the same happen to Lemmy!!

I believe in Canada we have high standards for our potable water, unlike the UK for example our water heaters need to be up to par (UK typically has seperate taps AFAIK).

So no need to boil, also if you're trying to get rid of chlorine you can just use Brita filters, carbon filters that restaurants use do the same AFAIK. Also even cities like mine which (at least at some point before now) had way more houses than apartments still chlorinated the entire city's supply.

Filters are insanely good these days. I was thinking about getting a life straw, but there's a slightly more expensive alternative that can do like 500x more filtering before it needs to be replaced, and comes with a pouch you can fill and then pour into a regular water bottle. Life straws are meant to be drank from directly, and the alternatives that company offers are just water bottles with life straws built in - so you put unfiltered water in the bottle itself... Probably gets gross or requires constant cleaning

The Netscape loading logo was pretty cool, and of course it took a while to load every page!

A bit later than what I'd call the early internet, I'd say my favourite memory was winning a Super Soaker CPS 2500 when I was 13.

Which means it doesn't hurt to look at executive pay on top of historical profits, as those are counted as operating costs as well.

IIRC the ratio between highest and lowest earners within a company has skyrocketed from about 25:1 to over 3000:1 in the past 75 years or so...

Humanity is broken 🤕

Yes, lemmy is pretty good quality, we of course need more people to browse new, I hardly ever on Reddit, but when I do it's shit compared to here 👍

Guess we will just have to mod the shit out of this place until then

Is the username eventually recycled?

After loving the shit out of Control, I have to go back and play this sometime. I always knew about it but never seriously looked at playing it.

Speaking of, I might replay Control on the PS5. It was pushing the limits of the PS4 Pro

Very nice Borat.gif

Awesome! That means you'll make a mental note and avoid making the mistake in the future?

That, or this is clearly a potentially intentional (or unintentional) misuse of the saying "I could'nt care less"
