The main reason I didn't move to Windows 11 when it was new was it being picky and refusing to install on a processor that was only released two years before the OS (my setup itself being only a year old at the time). Since most things I've read about it since then act as a deterrent to upgrading instead of an incentive I now have no real inclination to try and update from 10 until I'm forced to by software requirements.
Looks to be shallow enough to (at least mostly) avoid getting wet feet and the bottom looks firm, I'd give it a go without worrying too much. Could be awkward with the skinny tyres of a road bike but I'm assuming from the lead in and out being dirt that this is a track where one has at least brought a gravel bike.
Unfortunately yes. They do put some models on sale occasionally so if you want one it can be worth waiting - I got mine at close on half RRP which made the cost somewhat more palatable.
I ended up getting a Fenix 6s about a year and a half ago and I think it's about as close to a Pebble successor as things get these days. I get a comfortable week out of the battery, and a responsive e-ink screen with the basics covered plus a few more fitness related things (and a party trick of topo maps) the Pebble didn't have. I don't feel like it has quite the community support that Pebble had in terms of software (or the enabling thereof from Garmin), so it's not 100% the same but it's been working well for me so far.
Fossil didn't particularly impress me with their smartwatches, so a sales decrease doesn't surprise me. I had a Skagen Falster 2 (a Fossil by another name) for a bit and it was annoyingly slow with not enough battery to leave the screen on, and eventually did the Fossil thing of the time where the back falls off the watch. I replaced that with a Fossil hybrid HR as I was chasing something more like the Pebble Time Round I liked before its battery lost usable capacity. I liked the concept and battery life of the hybrid but it had a horribly slow interface (galling to me since Pebble had shown you could do much better with e-ink), the e-ink screen ended up fading, it kept getting moisture inside the face, and as a last straw Fossil decided to be a dick and remove the left handed button mode.
And they all perfectly understand why those strict controls are necessary.
Coming from a country where no ID is required but everything still goes smoothly, I'm not sure strict ID controls actually are necessary.
I read that as saying what people saw on their screens while playing the games was most truthful, not as a reference specifically to the TV show.
Adaptions are a thing. However paying someone to do it costs a lot of money (even doing it yourself is not cheap) and it's not much more - possibly even less - of a stretch to one's budget to get a whole new car built from the ground up as an EV, so commercial conversions tend to be a niche market focused on more interesting vehicles (e.g. what this Melbourne based conversion company converts).
If you're running ducting into your server/switch cabinet I've thought before that it could be interesting to have an exhaust setup that you can switch between venting the excess heat directly outside (in summer) or back into the main house (in winter).
Unfortunately you're in the minority these days, at least in the eyes of manufacturers. It appears that dual cabs are what sell so they're what get made.
The lack of useful tray sizes in utes is one reason I ended up going for a van for something to put my dirt bike in - unlike most of the utes I was finding within my budget it actually has a load space long enough to fit the bike with room to spare and low enough to roll it in easily.
You can't fit a full sheet in a dual cab Hilux, Ranger, or DMAX (etc etc) either but these utes sell in vast quantities. To get a dual cab in something not ridiculously large (and not a cab over design) the tray size will inherently be compromised, it seems however that people still go for the extra seats much more than single cabs with more useful tray sizes.
I still retain a Windows install for games, and eventually things stop working easily. I kept running Windows 7 up until around when I built my current PC (2020) and that upgrade was due to some compatibility issue - I can't remember whether it was hardware compatibility with the new setup or a game/launcher requiring Windows 10 before I upgraded. I expect that I will eventually get something that wants 11 to work.
Mind you I spend a lot less time on games these days and I will probably get a few more years out of that computer - it might be a good while before compatibility/security becomes an issue and I'm required to consider moving on.
