But then people would be confused and think Greece was invading.

Most Europeans are also illegal aliens from somewhere else.

Huh, that's interesting. I would have thought that a TV running Linux would be called 'smart'.

I'm with you though, it's better to be more 'modular' and have your playback device- be it PlayStation, media server, heck even television receiver, seperate from the display itself.

I've been pondering a gear cutter setup. This is usually done with a mill and a rotary table, but I was thinking of something simpler.

The blank would sit on a rotating table, that spins about the Z axis. The shaft for the cutter sits parallel to the Y axis, and moves along the X axis to contact the blank.

The chest strap?

If they do, at least you'll now know they're a shitty bike shop and you don't want to be friends with them anyway!

They probably won't, though.

Bookmarked for later.

25mm to 38mm is a pretty big jump. Do you have photos of the part of the frame where the tire is now? With a caliper measurement for scale?

Keep in mind you want some clearance- if the gap is say 40mm, you'll have 1mm of clearance both sides which is not enough. As far as I know, there's no hard and fast rule, but roughly 5mm each side seems to be a rule of thumb minimum.

Take it into your local bike shop. You'll pay a little more for the tyre than if you purchased online, but you'll have advice, different ones to try, and someone to do the hard work for you, with nicer tools. Plus you'll make a good contact and help put food on a local table.

For what it's worth, I run 32mm on my gravel bike, and that's seen some shit. You'd be fine with under 38mm for rail trails (and more).

5 axis and 5 dimensions are essentially the same thing, right? A 2D graph has 2 axes, a 3D one has three, 4D graph can be shown with colour representing the 4th axis, etc.

Mass produced to be as cheap as possible, vs carefully built and engineered to last as long as possible.

Fatmap. It was freemium, but now it's moving into Strava, who knows how much of it they'll hide behind subscriptions.

There's so many great FOSS maps, but I haven't seen any that give you the 3D view that Fatmap does. It's essentially Google Earth with overlays of routes for various activities.

I once sent a friend this clip to explain who I was going to see that night- Austin Lucas. He's one of the artists I tell people about when they think that all country music is the same. Great singer, great storyteller. I had to explain to my friend that Emily Barker wouldn't be there, as awesome as that would be, but I was still super psyched to finally see Austin in person.

He transformed that small back room in a dingy London pub into a raw hug of emotional energy. He was off the stage, circled by a small crew just vibing and loving what he was sharing, watching the tears in his eyes.

And then he said his friend was in town, and he'd like to welcome Emily Barker to come and sing.

• USB PD can negotiate pushing up to 240W now at 48V, which is a fair bit.

So if I wanted to wire my home to take advantage of this, supposing I had a house battery on solar, would I have some kind of DC-DC converter from battery to 48V, then cable to outlets with some kind of USB PD adaptor? How much advantage do I get from this, vs using existing 240V outlets + wall wart?

Tom's Diner.

My exposure to Linux is pretty minimal, especially Linux with a GUI, so forgive my ignorance. Even reading over this thread I'm confused as to the issue here.

I don't need an ELI5, but maybe someone can explain it like I don't know what Wayland is?

My understanding is that an app should ask the system to display an object at X size, let's say text at size 14. The system then works out that at the currently selected display resolution, size 14 will be Y pixels big. If needed, the system can scale that based on user preferences- a small, high DPI screen could render size 14 at only a couple of millimetres, for example.

Is the problem that devs are building things in a way that bypasses scaling? For example, hardcoding size 14 text to be Z pixels high?

Hardware should lead. It's easier to upgrade the software to make the hardware work, then it is to upgrade the hardware when the software decides to support it.

Just because I don't really know the geography there, I thought I'd look it up. Sticker range on the cybertruck is apparently 500km, which (as the crow flies) would get you from Moscow to Kursk, or from Kursk to Kyiv.

The Adventure Zone is good for the same reason as Dimension 20. A lot of DnD 'actual play' podcasts are people who play a great game of DnD, but don't make a great podcast.

TAZ is a bunch of comedy podcasters who decided to play DnD for a goof, and it works. The first arc has a rough first couple episodes, but it turns into one of my most beloved pieces of media across any format.

I stopped using my MacBook Air after 9 years. I did a battery swap at some point, and I think I replaced the charger after the cable frayed. Best windows machine I ever ran.

I've witnessed a lot of talk about this song- I love me a good cover- and this is the first time I've read this quote. Thanks for that, it gives some great context.
