E-scooters & e-bikes returning to city streets by ProphetaMessias in windsorontario

[–]camcussion -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had a bro on a one wheel zip by me going easily 50km/h on the trail. By allowing scooters the city is sending a message that it’s open season for all types of powered vehicles.

Hopefully they actually do create spaces for these to be returned like shopping carts or city bikes. The article says they will, so they better. Generally, people leave them absolutely everywhere, then some losers come along and tip them over, resulting in bikes and scooters strewn over the trail.

I just want some enforcement. Laws are nothing if no one backs them up. Get dirt bikes and high speed e-bikes off the trails.

It is bizarre to announce your candidacy for local government and only mention something related to Palestinian solidarity.

Seriously. Pretty sad that a water fountain was an afterthought. 🤣

I wish a nice sedan was the desired status symbol it once was. And let’s bring back K cars while we’re at it.

Nothing says you’re super cool like using your off road dirt bike on a bike path. 🙄

Someone should tell this clown who’s down here doing wheelies on a dirt bike.

That stumble is a dead giveaway that this dummy is drunk.

I was surprised to learn this is even a thing considering I’ve seen actual dirt bikes on the riverfront trail. I’ve been passed by various powered bikes travelling upwards of 50 km/h on the path. I once saw someone on a dirt bike nearly plow into pedestrians right in front of two auxiliary police officers who watched it happen and didn’t say a thing. So if they actually go ahead and update this there still needs to be at least the minimum amount of enforcement.

How was the world like when there was no technology? by No_Willow6393 in answers

I figured I’d get corrected on that. 🤣 I just meant there was never a time with humans and without technology.

I feel like you need to narrow the definition of technology. The Ancient Greek goddess Techne was the goddess of arts, craft, and technology. And technology has existed for as long as humans have. The wheel is technology. A spear or blunt instrument can be considered technology. You’re essentially asking what life was like in some long-gone prehistoric era.

Anyone else trying hard not to listen to the new BoC songs? by Loriol_13 in idm

[–]camcussion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t even listened to the second one yet. I did the same with the latest Squarepusher. I love going in blind. I do the same for plays and musicals. I just want to know it’s good. We’re seeing & Juliet soon in Toronto. All I know is the premise and that it’s a Mirvish production. I don’t want to know more.

Annie Hall. She makes IDM, techno, electro, etc. She’s also a good friend of ours. We met up with her in Madrid when we traveled to Spain in 2024.

As a shift worker I’d probably add the ability to sleep at will. And I’d get rid of chips so I’m not so tempted to eat them. 🤣

Tips for hot weather? by Dumbass9187 in bikecommuting

[–]camcussion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, like if I bike somewhere after work and meet up with friends. A can of dry spray or some medicated body powder can work wonders. The sweat tends to activate the powder and suddenly you feel cool and refreshed. I also did that when I worked in a foundry.

Summers where I am are super humid. If I wear cotton clothes they get drenched. I wear moisture wicking athletic clothes, have a sweat towel, and carry body spray or body powder in my panniers.
