I do have a motorcycle as well, since you asked.

Why an ebike?

Some sources claim it is actually the most environmentally friendly method of transportation, even when taking manufacturing into account. Over its lifetime, it creates less pollution than bike riding or walking, if you assume the person isn't a vegetarian.

Cost per day to commute 8 miles each way on the ebike is roughly $0.50 and roughly $5.00 for my 25 year old Toyota Tacoma, considering all costs.

I also enjoy riding my ebike and it has some health benefits. I don't just sit on it like a lazy bum who is riding a slow motorcycle. I pedal with moderate effort and can get to and from work feeling like I got some exercise without ariving all sweaty and gross. Riding this distance on an unpowered bike before and after work would fucking suck.

Is the lower speed a disadvantage? Yes but only slightly. I could get to work in about 15 minutes driving vs consistently about 22 minutes on the bike. Although the top speed is only about 28 mph, im nearly always going top speed. There are a few places where I have to stop for lights but at these intersections, I generally catch up with the cars that passed me earlier. Unless you're getting on the freeway, the bike is only barely slower.

When I ride my ebike to the grocery store or to work its pretty much always replacing a trip I would have taken in a car. I'd say it replaces about 20% of my trips. There is close to zero chance I would have used a non-ebike to have done the same.

I don't know how the timing of each release is planned but the Firefox website gives instructions for using the repositories for esr, beta, nightly, or dev edition.

Using Debian as your distro doesn't lock you into firefox ESR.

And that the majority of that output is being hoarded by those who already have far more than they can ever use.

This is the kind of content that I come here for

Contended me, your content did.

I don't know anything about Mac hardware, but if it's possible to put another 2gb of RAM in there and an SSD, it should be fine for web browsing.

I did something similar for a friend. I spent about $25 on hardware to put equivalent upgrades in an old laptop that had a single core celeron processor. I installed linux mint xfce. It ran firefox fine but couldn't quite play smooth video on YouTube. It was otherwise usable. A dual core should be workable.

Add it to the mile long list of reasons for why piracy is morally acceptable.

When you push it in, it kind of snaps into that position. You don't have to hold the button down.

Top: Me the first five minutes of project zomboid.

Bottom: Me the second five minutes of project zomboid.

There is no third five minutes.

Why is that game so hard?

Newsweek said that O'Reilly said that Chat GPT said that you're a cunt.

But seriously, put those pedophiles in jail. We can elect new representatives. This wouldn't destabilize society.
