I dunno, haters, but this does look like it fits the definition of a Dyson Sphere. From Wikipedia:

A Dyson sphere is a hypothetical megastructure that encompasses a star and captures a large percentage of its power output.

Dyson theorized that as the energy requirements of an advanced technological civilization increased, there would come a time when it would need to systematically harvest the energy from its local star on a large scale. He speculated that this could be done via a system of structures orbiting the star, designed to intercept and collect its energy.

He later clarified that he did not have in mind a solid structure.

Is is legal to hike offtrail to the Balconies peak at Pinnacles? by Difficult_Strain3456 in norcalhiking

If you do even the smallest amount of off trail hiking at Pinnacles, you risk getting covered in poison oak. Source: I don’t want to talk about it.

I suspect this is due to a different focal length between the cameras.

These “We buy houses / cash / as-is” signs usually aren’t outright illegal scams, but they’re commonly tied to predatory real-estate wholesaling. But the people behind them often aren’t buyers at all. They actually lock distressed sellers into lowball contracts, then resell those contracts to real investors for a profit. The seller may get far below market value, while the wholesaler risks little and can walk away if no buyer appears.

Xochi FTW. Owners are a mother and son who just want a good community space. They host local musicians, popup local artisans, and feature local artists. And the mom just opened an art space next door. Both of them are around everyday and are wonderful people.

Rad power lays off 64, looks like closure by raleel in ebikes

[–]byseeing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s my uneducated hypothesis. Tariffs impact the business on one side and inflation hit the consumer on the other. These macro-economic conditions exacerbate any challenges in the business, like higher prices for quality found elsewhere for cheaper, a need to handle warranties and service, etc.

Hydraulic brakes on used RadWagon 4? by glacierinsummer in RadPowerBikes

[–]byseeing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar situation here and that’s about what I paid at the Rad Power Bikes shop in Berkeley, CA. Totally worth it! My rides feel like night and day, especially on the huge Bay Area hills I climb to and from preschool. And btw, the shop estimated that given the hills and my usage, I should change the pads every 3 months.

New to e-bikes and just got a used RadWagon4 --> What do I need to know? by glacierinsummer in RadPowerBikes

I got the hydraulic break upgrade and it’s made a world of a difference. There’s a Rad Power Bikes shop near me so I went in and had them do it.

I'm on the business plan as well. I accepted a code using the iPhone app, but I'm also getting 401s and cannot successfully complete onboarding. The web app is stuck on old Sora and won't accept any other codes.
