And then when you fall, the stomp on you for being a PoS.

Fine, I’ll install Arch (btw). You can stop trying to convince me now.

There are some apps that can do a lot of that already, so it might be worth checking them out to save some money. The bike computer is gonna be more convenient and specialized tho.

You got it, dude 👶👍

it’s what it’s

They would still have to go through that ridiculous install following the Wiki, so I think that they are be pretty well educated on updates.

Tells you the speed the bike is going, revolutions of the pedals, your heart rate, etc.

They first started off by placing a little magnet on a spoke of a tire, a sensor on the frame, and entering the diameter of the tires into the computer. Each revolution (pass of the magnet) would indicate that distance traveled in the time of the revolution, so it could tell you your current speed, average speed, and distance. New ones are much more fancy with maps, pre-planned routes, elevation, hear rate, etc.

He’s mostly music, but has a bunch of cool interesting side videos on topics I find interesting but would never think of that are well-researched and hinged.

Feel free to download this badass ram

There’s no way you’re so new to Linux that you wouldn’t know if that would update automatically yet you’re running Arch btw. That’s like saying, “Do I need to do oil changes on my car? I built my engine, btw.”

Are her eyes a little wall-eyed? It’s looks like they’re looking in slightly different directions.

what made you change your mind?

this is so fucking validating. thanks for sharing.

It’s because whomever gets the most votes, gets the office they ran for.

Say there is an election for a state governor this year. The candidate that gets the most votes is the one that gets the position. Let’s say there are four candidates running, each representing one the following four parties: Ones, Twos, Alphas, & Betas. The population is mostly evenly distributed among the parties so that each have 25% of the vote. Of this election, whomever gets the most votes wins, so they focus on getting their people out to vote. Now, Ones and Twos have much more in common with each other than the rest, so they decide that it’s better if they team up because while they may not be perfectly happy if they win, they’ll be more happy than if either Alphas or Betas win. They create a joint party called Numbers. The voting population is now distributed so that Numbers have 50% of the vote, while Alphas and Betas have 25% each. The Numbers party will now easily win all elections. Alphas and Betas see this, and they decide to join their parties too, coming out with the Alphabets party. What was once four parties became three then two.

This is an effect that results from having a winner-takes-all (i.e. first-past-the-post) type of election. In places where people vote for parties of their legislature, and the legislature then elects their executive leader, you get more parties. People can vote for their favorite party that represents them best. Those get into legislative office. Then, those parties can team up to promote their favorite candidate for leadership. In this manner, everyone has a more detailed representation, so the legislature represents the population more correctly. The downside is that the leader is not directly voted on by the population, but the politicians.

I may be a little incorrect on how the details work in the second paragraph, but that’s the general idea. If you want to see a video that explains the first paragraph using animals as parties, check this CGP Grey video out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7tWHJfhiyo

It has been my experience that the best persona to use at work is one of no humanity. Be a corporate robot. When you walk in those doors, kill any sense of emotion. Look at everything logically. Make no friends. Focus on the tasks that your performance is measured. Leave no room for misinterpretation.

Most people are cool, but some are hunting for opportunities. Don’t give those people any opportunities.

I think that what happened with the Boeing 737-MAX crashing was that they had a sensor that if it got stuck, the software was programed to make the plane pitch down, even overriding the pilot’s own input. That resulted in the deaths of 346 people.

If it’s Boeing, I ain’t going.
