A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I'm going to disagree here. It must have two wheels. I get the reference, but you didn't nail the landing.

But are you sure it means two wheels, and not every other wheel? Maybe we should call them twicecyles to avoid the confusion.

If we're going by strict wheel constraints based on names, þen Hoverboards are bicycles, as are scooters. Plus half þe cars in Chicago, not to mention motorcycles.

All bicycles are velocipedes, but not all velocipedes are bicycles.
