My wife loves it, I hate it with passion.
Does it give you multiple options for a route? Like fastest/using least petrol/no tolls, etc?
I am currently using Google maps and waze most of the time and tried Organic maps for a while for a more privacy focused option, but it only gives you one option, no alternatives of similar length/time.
Edit: nevermind, just downloaded it and it does offer alternatives. Looking good as well, will definitely test it, thank you!
Is this where everyone was clapping on the bus?
Same with IKEA, even though you can look up the exact box sizes online there are still people trying to fit sofas into a Fiat 500.
Agree, also the franchise fatigue is strong with this one.
Before NASA who simulated the sun? In the middle ages they had no weather? Or history is also a hoax 🤔
Still saving up for a sperm shaped helmet, to look extra ridiculous. I'm such a classic cyclist....
Sure thing, didn't mean to attack you. I was referring to the original poster as well, just saw your interpretation what the OP comment meant.
Thats the minority, also bike specific clothes make riding comfortable, and they are not more expensive then other specielized gear for any other sport. In the same time they are not mandatory, there are countless tests showing you can ride just as good in street clothes as in a bike kit. The issue comes when you want to go for a 1+ hour ride, especially in windy conditions and it gets uncomfortable.
Where you draw the line what sport gear is acceptable? Some people go to bars in football shirts or wear basketball gear as streatwear, skateboarding shoes, etc.
If someone openly hates a group of people, because they wear tight elastic clothing there are other problems in my opinion.
Lol indeed
I can confirm that the majority if the cyclist community doesn't give a flying fuck about your opinion.
- Open an etsy shop.
- Start selling fake licence plates with bullshit on them.
- Profit
Yup, we got all the steps.
That title is not easy to decipher
I misread and thought what a weird thing to do to just now turn on their Teslas
I also work from home and use my work laptop for work only. Not even googling stuff, nothing. Just work. Never even opened the media player or went to youtubes website once.
I have my own computer running on a separate screen and I can do and watch whatever the fuck I want during working hours. I can play a game or watch a movie and nobody knows. Its that simple.
Same with phones. Never use work phone for personal stuff.
Its not even being tech savvy, just common sense ffs.

It looks like he is coming out of the tree
I did it finally, deleted win10 and installed Linux Mint
This is just to share my experience with everyone, especially the people still undecided.
I was planning the switch for months, and finally had a couple hours undisturbed from the wife and the kids :)
It was a slightly rocky start, as my USB wifi receiver did not have native drivers, but with wired internet and the official Mint tutorial the rest of the transition was super smooth.
The OS install went flawlessly and within an hour I had all the basic programs, browser and utilities up and running. I love that I just download the app from the dedicated place, no pointless web surfing for the latest versions.
I backed up my steam folder (with the rest of my files of course), so after installing the steam client and some quick synchronization I had my installed games library back in minutes. I did some testing and everything works great. As I own a steam deck I already had some experience with games not running natively on Linux, but a saw many great tutorials for beginners. I cant wait to test out some more games!
Edit: thank you for all the positivity and great feedback! I know Lemmy users love Linux and I have to admit I feel a little bit more included :D
Who knows, maybe I will start warching Star Trek next...
About to buy my first road bike, need some advice
Hi all, I hope my post doesn't violate any rules, because of the links, if yes, please let me know.
I am a beginner with road bikes, I was always a MTB person, but I decided to get a road bike for my cardio exercise as I turned 40 and I have less option in my area for MTB rides.
Since Im a beginner with road bikes I would need some advice to not mess up my purchase. Of course I done some research as well, but never know what I missed.
Im in the EU and my budget is 700-750 EUR, so yes, it will be a budget bike. I will ride 3-4 times a week for 50-70 km distances. Some hills, but nothing serious.
I found two possible candidates:
Triban RC500 The obvious choice, many reviews calling it the best budget bike under 1000 EUR, some compromises, but I think it would be perfect for me. Price: 750 EUR where I live.
Sava Vegur 1.2 A bit of a wild card, its currently on half off sale with a reputable online retailer for 680 EUR, but cant decide if its the deal of the year or I should be cautious. I know, I dont need a carbon bike for my needs, but still, Im curious if anyone ever had experience with the brand? I found reviews, opinions, etc but nothing which would tell me to buy or not buy it specifically. Its a Chinese brand, but thats about it from what I can see.
Thanks for the time and I would prefer constructive feedback if possible :)
This always makes me laugh
Most likely a repost of a repost from 5 orher platforms but I love how quickly Lemmy become my favourite place and would like to contribute!
Question: Should I raise a warranty claim or upgrade?
Hi Lemmings!
I have my Deck since March 2022. I was one of the fortunate ones to receive it quite soon.
Lately I noticed two things: The right joysticks movement is not as smooth as it was before and sometimes it makes a creaking noise.
The "A" button lost some of its resistance and become super sensitive in some games registering twice per button push. For example in a text heavy game I often skip dialogues because of this.
The device is in a perfect working order, no abuse, no damage, screen protector since day 1, protective skin applied, etc.
My question: Should I contact Valve and ask for a repair..
...or maybe try to get some nice replacement parts and upgrade the buttons and joysticks?
How does the available replacements compare to original parts? Are they an improvement? Or should I go the safe route and let Valve repair it for me?
: Ability to favourite communities so they will always appear on top of the subscribed list
First of all love the app, its my daily driver now for Lemmy!
I was wondering if you could favourite or "star" communities in the list so they would always show on top of the list? I love to check my feed but also I like to daily browse specific communities. It would help a lot, especially with my growing number of communities subbed.
Many thanks and keep up the great work!
