Interesting low-cost measure to not use a front-derailleur
The S2 model aimed to give riders an uphill climbing gear but without introducing the complexities of a gear-shifting derailleur, tensioned cables, and handlebar shifters. Engineers at SRAM came up with a solution that's hard to imagine for other bikes but not too hard to grasp. A freewheel in the back has two cogs, with a high gear for cruising and a low gear for climbing. If you pedal backward a half-rotation, the outer, higher gear engages or disengages, taking over the work from the lower gear. The cogs, chains, and chainrings on this bike are always moving, but only one gear is ever doing the work.
Probably not of much use but I thought it was cool
Well it doesn't seem like there's been another Reddit exodus, especially from looking at the user numbers for Lemmy. There hasn't been a big screwup lately like with Meta or Twitter (but I think Bluesky is absorbing the Twitter refugees currently).
Of course, but it's entirely unrelated to the body of the article.
Absolutely. This has made me acutely aware that my days with MS are numbered.
For existing customers, the price hike won't be kicking in until plan renewal, and there are options to downgrade the plan. Those who want to avoid using AI can downgrade the plan to the "Classic" or "Basic" Microsoft 365 plans.
Thankfully we can roll back to the "Classic Family Plan" without the AI features. But annoying that they automatically switched plans and I had to switch back. If I didn't see this article I'd be up for a big price hike when it renewed.
OK but what if we had one monkey typing away for every real number between zero and one?
Yeah I agree. I have this fear at all levels of politics as things continue to get more and more toxic.
Sad to see, I feel like she did a lot of good such with walkability and cycling infrastructure. We can only hope someone similar comes along.
In September, Plante closed comments on her social media posts, saying her replies had been dominated by abusive language for months.
I wonder if this has something to do with her stepping down.
Those numbers are not additive.
If you assume that 50% of voters are Democrat and 50% are Republican, then you'd average them to get an idea of what percentage of Americans believe in that.
Huh? Per the quoted text in your post:
12% of Democrats say Kamala Harris should do the same if she loses.
I use it on my laptop because it doesn't nuke my laptop's battery like all other browsers. So it's a bit of a shame.
