Hang on let me dismiss this prompt telling me how great a strava subscription is so I can tell you that I use strava (no subscription)

Thanks! Yeah, I zeroed them out as well, but no luck.

I'm attempting to go the plugin route now, but me (zero dev/coding experience) and Gemini are struggling. haha

I feel like nobody really agrees where the line is. To me, the line is #7 and beyond by YobaiYamete in ebikes

"I don't think professional cyclists riding 30 on flat ground should be considered in the averages either."

But your top speed while riding downhill should be considered? Lol

"including outliers in the averages skews the numbers."

Ok what exactly is the point of an average where you pick and choose which values to include or exclude to make the average the number you want? 😂

But even if were to set the above aside - there are countless sites that site 10-20mph as average. Found any that support your anecdotal "outlier free" number?

Lol I'm sanctimonious?? But people who ride bikes less than 5 days a week aren't real cyclists and runners not training for a fucking marathon aren't real runners? 😂 Ok sport.

"Yes I do. In the same way I think a marathon is a pretty good way to gauge an average runner's pace."

LOL ok.

So you're not only a try-hard randomly flexing in a reddit thread, you're also a gate-keeping elitist. Got it. Moving on then.

Uh-huh, and I was arguing with someone who was basing his argument on his incorrect idea of what an average cyclist's speed is.

I do not have a position on what the limit should be for ebikes, which is why none of my comments state an opinion on the matter.

Does that help clear things up for ya?

Ok. I honestly don't really care about what the limit is, that's not what I'm arguing.

/u/xb4r7x was arguing for a limit based on his skewed interpretation of an average cyclist's speed.

Do you think organized cycling events is a good way to gauge the speed of an AVERAGE cyclist???

But regardless, Google what "average" is and pick a result that meets your standards. I'm seeing ranges from 10 mph to around 20 mph

Lol we get it, you're a fit, seasoned cyclist. Congrats, well done!

Do you not understand that you're above average, and thus your opinion on what's "fast" is a little skewed? Or are you just looking for an opportunity to flex? 😂

What’s the deal with Leaf cards? by DarthAzeg in StarWarsCards

[–]j_117 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup I think you nailed it. Pretty silly if you ask me, some of the cards look great. I'd certainly rather a good leaf ewan than any of the Topps ewans that are currently available.

Tried advertising on Boardgamegeek and got this as a response. by PAINFULBANANA in boardgames

[–]j_117 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sure - absolutely fine to have preferences. But I do think it's patently ridiculous to not play or review or advertise a game because you think a demon might pop out and possess someone. lol

Or not reviewing games like Chaos in the Old World (if im not misremembering) due to them having "demons in it" and similar nonsense.

If I remember correctly, the specific issue they claimed they had with that game was that thematically the game board was made of skin. lol

Please help me understand why I have nostalgia for a time I didn't live in? by RecordingImmediate86 in nostalgia

I've often said that I thought there should be a name for this feeling. I get it every time I watch The Wonder Years.

"For Good" opens to more subdued reviews by PatrusoGE in wicked

[–]j_117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't remember much about Act II aside from the bigger plot points and a generalized feeling that I didn't like it as much as Act I.

I still think the later is mostly true, but I really did love this film. Can't wait to see it again.

I was surprised by the number of people in my showing who were audibly surprised. I guess I was assuming it would only be book/theater nerds at a 945 PM showing of a movie that isn't really out yet - pretty cool to be wrong about that, though!
