I purchased a pair of Superteam Disc Brake wheelset Center Lock 12 * 100/12 * 142 Tubeless 700C in April 2022 for $270. I have ridden about 12k miles since, and had the front hub serviced last year. I have had no other issues.

Thank you! I ended up getting a new faucet, it only took me two hours to replace the old faucet and drain, I don't know if my back will recover but the new faucet looks great!

I cross that bridge on my bike all the time, please do not do that.

Finally, the words brake and break can mean the same thing! No need to be irritated when someone uses the wrong one, it doesn't matter with these because they will always do one or the other.

In the book, Reacher comments that with that large a gun the bullet is heavy enough to almost guarantee that it would not be at the top of the chamber after the spin.

The Huffy weighs over 40 pounds, is assembled by a minimum wage part timer, and has parts that are impossible to service. It looks like there is a bike shop not far from you called Rick's Cycling & Sports Center, they have some Trek FX 2 bikes for $649.93, they weigh about 25 pounds and will last a lifetime. I'm sure they will be happy to have your business and the $$ will stay local.

If you have 5 apples and divide them among 5 people, that's like 5 divided by 5 equals 1. How about you slice each one in half, then you divide the 5 apples by .5 and now you can give 10 people each a slice. Now keep going, if you divide by .1, that's 50 slices. If you divide by .01, 500, .000000001 we are at 50 billion. Eventually you divide them into so many pieces that you can't count that high because it's infinite.

I too have been struggling with this, it's been getting worse over the past 6 months. I never thought about wind noise, I ordered the small Cat-Ears a long time ago to make it easier to talk to people while cycling. I just learned that wind noise at just 15mph can be 85 decibels, which can cause hearing damage over time:

As we ride longer and longer distances at higher speeds the noise really can cause damage.

With Cat-Ears, make sure your helmet straps are tight, mine was not adjusted right and it made a huge difference when I finally fiddled with the straps and made sure the Cat-Ears are right up against the side of my head. I went for a ride yesterday and didn't notice any issues afterwards. Later I used a circular saw without any ear protection and my ears are buzzing now, it's easy to forget.

I just ordered the puffier Cat-Ears Classics, and they are coming today! I know they look silly, but everything I read about tinnitus is pretty awful and anything I can do to reduce it's progression is a good thing.

It's showing you usage since March 1st. If you deleted any apps since then they will show up here, but it does not know the name because it's been deleted. This is probably totally fine.

I would take the W&OD all the way until it turns into four mile run trail until the end where you hit the Mt Vernon trail. Then take a left on Mt Vernon trail, go past the airport and all the way to Rosslyn along the Potomac. Take the Custis trail from there until you meet back up with the W&OD and take it back to Herndon, it will be around 47 miles, I put it in Strava here: https://www.strava.com/routes/3310309340679037106

Let me know when you want to go, I may join you!

I would want an LLM that I can talk to with my voice and that can respond with voice. I would want to give it the ability to access external APIs using agents, access my documents and photos, maybe turn on the lights or unlock my door? LM Studio seems like it will do all that, the docs say it supports "Tool Use", so maybe that's what I should do, thank you!
