ViRGE 3D, upgraded the memory with 2 chips to play Tomb Raider.

Took about 2 minutes to find a two wheeled open seat vehicle powered by a motor (definition of a motorcycle) with most of those requirements. Look up the SWAGTRON Swagcycle. All for about 800€

A step backwards just for changing the pedals for footpegs and adding a throttle control? I think it’s a great step forward, you don’t have to get tired anymore.

Why not evolve all the way and get a motorcycle?

Do the numbers! Check that the range is at least double of that you need. Check if the purchase price makes economic sense. Put priority on wants and needs. Think of resale value, because you never know if some life changing event can happen.

I avoided that bullet in 2017 when my e39 blew the headgasket. It was either a modern EV or hybrid or a cheap second hand gas guzzler. At less than 5000km a year the numbers told me what I needed to know, and looking back, my Mondeo ST220 has been much cheaper overall, fun and dead reliable.

In Valheim it was quite real and comfy at the same time. Weird I know.

We have all heard this song before and know how it ends.

So this is what marketing can spit out in their best possible light. That means it can only go downhill from here. Not very promising.

I’m not sure, but in the debug config try to point “program” to the actual executable in /target/debug/hello_world

In southern Spain you can’t dig without hitting some stone age stuff. My town was a known stop for travellers before the Romans took over because of fresh water wells. Eventually a roman road was built about two millenia ago, and still ride on it with my bike for some routes.

No old buildings remain, this was a roadside village and stuff was made cheap and not meant to last, but there is a funeral arrangement from 600 BC that was unearthed and sent to the national museum. More info

Thanks that explains a lot. Bummer that parts and warranties are no avail anymore.

It’s sad but at the same time understandable. I stopped buying from CRC around 2021 because it took forever to ship to Spain. That includes a Big-Al Ragley frame for a bike I built in the day.

Although true, it isn’t the point I’m trying to get across. My view is that weight limits aren’t a great metric. You don’t have to go for niche sports, the traditional xc/trail bike is what everybody starts with on mtb.

Say this example xc bike has a weight limit of 150Kg. Rider A is at 170Kg buys this bike ignoring the limit and just rides smooth local fire roads for some excersise.

Rider B is young, athletic 70Kg build. Buys this SAME bike and goes on rides with friends that know all the fun trails. Rider B is getting faster and stronger, and the bike starts to show it’s limitations.

It’s clear which bike will fail sooner. Weight alone doesn’t matter, and both riders are using the bike for it’s intended and designed purpose.

Manufacturers cannot reliably slap a max weight to their bikes because of all the other factors involved. And if they do, it will be way conservative to avoid getting into legal trouble.

Weight limits on performance bikes are total nonsense. Probably are there just to comply some law. A pro enduro rider weighing 20kg less than me would destroy my setup any day.

I find hard to believe a traditional 26er with 36 triple cross spoked wheel from a reputable manufacturer can’t hold up to any rider capable of moving on their own and sitting on a saddle any amount of time.

Unless they are heading to Whistler’s a-line

Well, it was addressing the pay issue, and it is the most secure path to higher paid position fast. Moving on to new stuff comes naturally and the industry will push you to their next hotness, so not really a problem.

If your goal is to make yourself more valuable to employers/clients the best path is to specialize in some critical and niche enterprise tech. People that are good at stuff businesses were lured into using get paid very well. In my case it was SharePoint, but that’s just an example.

Knowing your way around the OS is taken for granted in these positions, so you have one piece of the puzzle, which is great, but you need the other pieces.

But be careful, if I have to choose between two experts, one with basic win+linux and the other only linux, I’m choosing the former.

A bit of wobble is tolerable on cheaper hubs, but that is a excessive. Probably very difficult to adjust the shifting, if able at all.

Grandparents! They signed up for this when they had kids, or at least it’s common practice where I live.

Born in the late 70s, I only recall being bored when my parents made me go to mass, or waiting while they did adult stuff like going to the bank.

Horsing around with my brother or playing with the Casio stopwatch kept us sane.

At home it was TV, Legos, music and bikes

It’s funny that in spanish only the “c” is translated.

We say “ce sharp”

Def 7, it was the first OS used at work that turned invisible… It didn’t need constant defragging, optimizing or registry hacks like 98, 2000 or XP used to. It was a workhorse.

That said, I haven’t used 11 yet. My company just announced that this year all PCs will stay on 10 for the foreseeable future.
