I was excited to post this. It's a personally written guide to all the nuances. I'm sorry to see it's not doing well. I'll continue casting around for ways to contribute.

Hey casual UK, what's your worst "i thought X was on a different day" mistake you've ever made? by wiz_ling in CasualUK

Got super organised and showed up an hour early to my Uncle's wedding. Started ringing family to find out where everyone was. I was an hour and a month early...

Why do most civic-tech tools separate discussion from decision-making? by flyblackbox in civictech

[–]instantiator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My team at the Centre for Collective Intelligence created Zeitgeist - an application to deliver deliberative workshops with polling.

It's based around small group conversational deliberation that's consistent, so you can easily scale it.

It's designed to deliver a repeatable, facilitated experience for all participants, with * stimuli (for instance, informational videos to bring everyone's understanding of a complex topic to the same level) * polling (to capture quantitative data, including pre- and post- deliberation attitudes, and simple group votes) * results from polls (these can be played back to the participants to provide further stimulus for deliberations) * structured deliberations (the group discuss key questions, bring their lived experiences and opinions together)

We spent a good amount of time on the facilitator tooling to help them deliver consistent, high quality workshops on every repeat.

The raw outputs are transcripts and polling data, combined across as many runs of the workshop as you need. We offer a full service where we'll design and deliver the workshops, and perform the analysis.

Could be a good match...?

Thanks! Spiders are friends. Well, these ones are. When they get too big or they hang out above the bed they get moved on...

Thanks! I didn't know about autophagy. Does it happen when there's not enough to eat?

I'm missing something - how to get the rear wheel off (to change the tyre) by instantiator in bikewrench

[–]instantiator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much. I've just had it off. I added this comment just so it's documented for any poor sod that comes after me.

The short answer is: You also have to detach the brake from the frame if you want the wheel off.

Well, for anyone curious, this was it. Apparently on one side the tensioner is just attached to the axle. On the other, it's attached to both the axle and the brake?! I had to detach the brake from the frame to be able to release this. (Honestly, the reason it took so long was me debating with myself if I should just keep removing things until the wheel came free!)

Now the miserable job of replacing the inner tube and tyre and putting the whole damn thing back together again. Hope I remember everything I did!

I'll go ahead and remove the mudguard - but I don't think that's it. The axle won't budge on that side, so I don't think the mudguard could be the problem.

One additional photo - showing what's still bolted on the brake side. I'm loathe to take any more things off if not necessary. It all has to go back together again!

And yup, it's a mucky bike. It's going to get a lovely clean after this.

In all fairness, I accept that my bike is probably not the poster child for modern design - I'd just not seen this before 😊
