@inthehands I would also expect richer gun shits are more likely to own silencers

How's the whole "we have to allow fascist's free speech or the government will ban other speech" thing working for you?
What with people being arrested for protesting genocide and inaction on climate change, people being silenced for talking about trans rights, police actions against anti-racist counter protests

But some white dudes are still suspiciously more concerned with letting fascists speak...

@dalias the amount of shitty attitude towards consent in the whole "AI" bullshit is staggering. Stealing people's work, making fake porn of people, jamming it into everything. It's a pretty major feature of it all

@clarity bonk meter? https://www.trainerroad.com/blog/what-is-bonking-causes-dangers-and-prevention/

@clarity they're procedurally generated in response to the player. There's no defined course like in a race. The game spawns in pursuit vehicles, road blocks, and the like, and you have to escape them using racing abilities and the environment

@clarity a lot of need for speed games have car chases as a mechanic?

I am being a mean human and stealing her eggs (which are unfertilised and would just get smelly)

@dalias maybe? Apparently muscles are 20-30% efficient, and coefficient of performance for an air conditioner is 3.5 to 5, so it's close

There's an apple tree here that is shooting from the root stock, so Winnie gets some fresh chew toys

Rabbit who needs many head pats

@coolandnormal is that a rhetorical question, or do you want an answer?

@coolandnormal nah, you totally could
Basically it's efficiency of manufacture
Ebikes don't have regenerative braking, because the motor is separated from the wheels by a freewheel system. The freewheel is usually in the rear wheel hub, because this allows them to use a standard bicycle hub. This means the motor cannot be driven as a generator. This also means they don't have to bother with designing the motor to handle being used this way
So to charge the bike you would need a separate generator system that attaches to the bike, like an indoor trainer
So they're not built to do that, because they use standard parts

Apparently such generators do exist, although I don't know if your ebike can support charging from a couple of hundred watts

Project maintainer: "we're struggling to review all this slop-code"

AI bro: "have you tried using a slop generator to review code? I'm very smart"

I am fucking sick of these wank puffins

Fucking Mr/Mrs titles are such bullshit, and more people need to stop using them
Expecting people to indicate as part of their name if they're a man, married woman, or unmarried woman is such self evident misogynistic garbage

(Dr is ok, because if you're foolish enough to get a PhD we should get some warning :blobcatblep: )

Also there's a suspicious correlation between people who buy into the cult of genius and being racist arsehats

Enjoying the hot weather

"We hired 10x engineers and now our product sucks"

Funny, it's almost like hiring egotistical dudes creates a terrible environment. It's almost like human groups are defined more by their ability to work together than their individual ability at the task

But hey, what would I know? I'm just a woman
