There is no use case for TempleOS. It's just a curiosity, albeit an interesting one.

Unless we're talking about going all out, practicality and affordability be damned in the name of every marginal gain possible, it's probably the road bike I already own:

Cannondale CAAD13 (alloy frame), mechanical 105 with hydraulic disc brakes and a set of alloy DT Swiss wheels (PR 1600).

It looks nicer and a nice home that looks cared for is worth it on its own. I find it much easier to relax when things around me are tidy. Not making your bed is no different than leaving everything lying around after you're done using it. If you want to live like that, you do you, no judgement, but I don't.

Oh, I totally read that as you talking from experience :)

Or do you mod somewhere else?

Since you're on the same instance as me, I assume you are a mod/admin there. Let me use this opportunity to say thank you to you and all the other mods on feddit.org for helping to keep that place one of the most pleasant online spaces I've come across in my years on the internet. As far as I can tell from the outside you and the others are doing a great job.

Can someone explain where the assumption comes from that the sticks are definitely going to drift, just because they use potentiometers? I get that people got burned by the Switch 1 Joycons, but doesn't pretty much every other gamepad ever (except perhaps a few specialty ones) also use that technology for the sticks?

I've personally never had any sticks develop drift, on any controller I've owned. If Xbox, Playstation, PC and older Nintendo controllers all didn't have the problems the Switch 1 Joycons did, then why the assumption the Switch 2 will be like the Switch 1 and not like all the other consoles that use potentiometer sticks with no issues?

In my experience the city information is not particularly reliable. If you geolocate my IP the city is always wrong.

Doesn't matter if you're allowed to ride on the sidewalk, when doing so you need to make sure not to bother pedestrians. They shouldn't have to be paying special attention to cyclists. You have to make sure you're paying attention and not getting in their way, not the other way around. If that means riding at walking speed, or pushing your bike, then that's what you have to do (or ride on the road). Remember, pedestrians are vulnerable road users too.

You clearly find it easy to stop doing things that are bad for you (drinking, drugs, eating meat), but you struggle to start doing things that are good for you (exercise, cooking, eating enough/well).

She was right. I still don't do the bad stuff and started doing the good stuff and now my life is so much better. Ironically it was quitting the last bad thing (weed) which allowed me to start taking care of myself. It's not enough to not hurt yourself, you have to be good to yourself too.

So platforms (rightfully) remove this song, but are happy to let him have an account and make money off his other songs? If they actually cared, he would have been banned a long time ago…

That's not been my experience at all (also in Germany). Signal is super popular, especially with younger people (under 40). I don't have a Whatsapp account and it's super rare for it to be an issue.
