Eh, bicycle helmet I guess?

That sounds dumb. :(

I kinda like the idea but I also kinda hate it.

I really wish PWAs worked properly cross-platform instead. :(

Maybe do robotics (likely in a simplified way; surely “robots for dummies” is a thing?) and have them make their robots compete in some sort of competition at the end of the year.

I’m not even a competitive person at all, but when our school had us compete on Popsicle stick bridges, I had a ton of fun. Creative projects with a clear, real-world benchmark at the end are really fun.

I understand that they need to diversify so that they’re not so dependent on Google’s default search engine money. I don’t know how they should do that.

But I’m not sure what they’ve been doing has been all that good of an idea.

The return of mustaches.

Do we need a name? Most social networks don’t have a special name for their users.

On mobile, it’s very bearable. You can skip them quickly.

On TV, oh boy. It’s super long and now you have to skip several times in an ad block to reduce your ad duration to the minimum.

As for desktop… Idk I only sit at my desk for work.

I wouldn’t mind them if they didn’t BREAK MY REMOTE’S PLAY BUTTON.

Thanks! Hopefully my new tires are more resilient

Leftover powder on the road is a different beast. It’s often mixed up with a little bit of sand, and it’s been crushed into a powder that doesn’t feel like natural snow at all. It doesn’t stick and it slips like fine sand. Not a fun time. A little pile of 2-3 cm of the stuff was enough to almost make me completely lose control last year. Scary stuff.

Hmm, i see.

I’ll have a new bike with different winter tires this year but last year my bike would get dangerously destabilized by the smallest amount of leftover powder snow trail from the snow clearing machines, so I stayed well away from uncleared roads.

But for one, as you say, that was forgetting about how uncleared snow is not the same, and also, new tires this year.

I’ll give it a try next time. It’ll probably be safer to avoid the cars for a little bit longer anyway.

I live in the city though. It could easily recommend I use the street if it knew that winter is a thing. And uh… Idk, maybe cycling through deep snow works on a fat bike, but with a normal bike with winter tires like mine, I can’t just blast through 30+ cm of uncleared snow.

Often Google tries to have me cycle on a trail that has zero snow removal in the winter. So there’s that.

Okay someone has to say it.

The second F in Firefox is NOT capitalized.

I’d have expected ad providers to catch on pretty quickly that there’s cheating involved, no?

I think that’s right for a website where you accidentally clicked an ad and now it’s trying to convince you you have a virus and you need to download their virus to remove it. Or maybe for an ad pop-up where annoying you might increase the chances that the content makes it into your brain.

But for a news website i have trouble seeing the logic.

That is not what I’m suggesting. I’m not saying charging only cables shouldn’t exist. I’m saying what everything does should be clearer.

I’ve always wondered. Is there really a benefit to a ton of redirects like that? Like, do they gain anything by making it harder to back out?

Or is it just extremely incompetent website programming?
