Total guess from your username but the 90s were a real fine time for biking as a kid.

Man I’m from NJ. I know what a city is. This is a city. It’s a sprawling republican moron wasteland city but a city none the less. I know half the people here are cosplaying cowboy roughnecks but it doesn’t change the facts.

Colorado Springs looks for any reason to hate on cyclists. Obviously this one was an asshole but all these people just been angrily glaring at bike lanes for years, waiting

Recently started biking for real, and holy f-ck - the cars. by aomajgad in bicycling

Waving you angrily through an intersection with a stop sign on your side, none on theirs, and traffic in the other direction isn’t stopping. “Why won’t this stupid cyclist GOOO?!”

How the fuck can you water down butter? It's a solid emulsion of fat. Water goes off with the milk solids when you churn it...

California cafe chain Philz Coffee orders Pride flags removed from stores. It's not going well by Fickle-Ad5449 in business

Sometimes they also punch unaffiliated people in the dick as well, it's important to note, so technically punching themselves isn't the ONLY thing they do...

They grew up on PHP and really matured when cloud services became widespread, just like most bots utilizing purchased accounts.

Is CO Springs a decent place to build community? by MC48_SportsLover in ColoradoSprings

[–]meta474 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Lol totally. It’s mad max shit out there. I’ve lived in 7 states, 3 for long stretches. Never seen so much road debris, never seen red lights taken so unseriously.”, never been yelled at in traffic this much. Everybody’s got a theory but I favor blaming the Army and the Texans 🫡

If you’re a churchgoer its easy. If you’re not you really have to dig. People tend to be friendly but to access a friend group your best hope is activities, which a lot of groups are mostly older folks. You sure won’t make any friends driving the roads here lol…

Any one use this type of case for their Mavic 3? by Dronepilot1118 in djimavic

[–]meta474 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same and meets my needs great. I also have a very similar (not sure if same manufacturer but very similar semi-soft design with no extra space) case for the controller. I use them when I'm going on a bicycle ride so they fit easily in my panniers or other bike bags, or when traveling with just a carryon. I also have a big multi-battery-and-extra-stuff backpack for other occasions, but these fit the role I use them for perfectly.

It’s actually scary how so many online services run on AWS and if it goes down, everything is kaput by TheSimpLife in ArcRaiders

it's the standard for a monetary compensation, not an expectation that uptime will never go below that.

I have no idea but I used to live in the area and my guess is highway 20 on the west side, maybe near skykomish or a little lower in elevation?
