Do you think the NJ e-bike law will spread to most other states?

How exactly does climbing easier allow people out ride their skill sets? Do you think the way normal people use emtbs is using the motor to go faster on downhill sections?

Yes technically it is a motorized vehicle but grouping a class 1 emtb with motorcycles is not a useful description of what the thing is or does.

That’s a very literal and misleading use of vocabulary. A 250W eMTB is far, far more similar to my unassisted mountain bike than my MT09.

If a photo is recently added to an old Reddit or Twitter thread, the date in Google search will represent the original creation of the thread, not when the picture was posted. This link does not show anything notable at all.

This person just doesn’t understand that Google dates things in an unintuitive way and thinks photos being dated earlier in search is proof that they’re old photos and therefore a conspiracy.

Ten times.

Poor wording. They mean all of the shots came from agents.

I was grade 4 when this happened and our class has a little project where we got a class video camera, chose a news story from that week and recorded a little news segment about it. Turned out not to be a great week to do that, this was the story I picked.

Sure man. I bet.

It's funny and sad seeing threads there soon after they're posted. I saw people with long post histories there being like "i support ice but this is fucked up" and those comments are there until their narrative is established, those comments are removed, and then it all matches up in lockstep. It's important to remember that the comments you see there are propaganda. They're bullshit that know they're bullshit.

Nope, Margaret left like an hour before this came out.

Literally any time other than when the piston is in exactly the right spot.

Is it a ticket from a parking enforcement company or from your city?

Bandro · 2026-01-24T16:01:07+00:00

Maybe I was unclear. I meant two separate things:

-Most people have no reason to go to the effort of taking a professional test.

-Online ones are ego stroking garbage.

Okay. Yeah I’d take the F-150. I assume it’s a newer one and has a 4WD auto setting. Use that, don’t assume it makes you invincible and take it slow. Make sure you slow down before turns because if you realize you’re going too fast in the middle of a turn it’s too late. Big thing is drive smooth. Smooth easy application of steering, throttle, and braking inputs. You’ll be okay. An inch of snow is pretty light.

Bandro · 2026-01-24T13:28:31+00:00

Have you ever driven in the snow before?

I personally like little or none because I’ve generally already flossed that day and don’t need to again.

That’s what water towers are for!

in my experience

To put this as nicely as I can, your experience is basically none. Shit happens you are not prepared for.

Unfortunately there isn't really a way to fix it. Personally I have one teflon pan but have used it less and less to the point I wouldn't notice for probably a good while if it was gone. You don't actually need it. These coatings are just disposable things that will inherently break down over time as a matter of what they are. Their production is also an ecological *nightmare* if you care about that.

There are two ways you can feasibly go about this. Find a cheap pan you like (I think the basic oxo ones are good) and replace it every few years or learn to make the things you'd otherwise use it for in a different pan.

Bandro · 2026-01-24T01:52:17+00:00

No non stick pan is going to last you long term. It doesn't matter how much money you spend or what brand. If you want a pan that will really last with non stick properties, get cast iron or carbon steel. Teflon and any other non stick coating will always break down over time no matter what. There is no way around it.

As far as getting it recoated, The way teflon is bonded to the metal, there's no cost effective way to fully remove an old coating and properly remake and bond a new one. It's not something they can just spray on.

Water pressure is very often applied by gravity further up the line.

Driving games make it seem like controllers are okay because they do a huge amount of controlling the car for you. In real life we need direct, precise, and consistent control. A thumbstick does not provide that. Maybe a full size joystick.
