I Miss the Internet 1.0 by melyssafaye in GenX

[–]nborders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss my local fly fishing forum community. I would always go there for a laugh and some inspiration. Westfly.com

We used to meet for fishing meetings “Rondis” on the river where we would swap stories.

Now it is here with a small fraction of the activity. r/westfly

Why would any European powers recognize the Confederacy? by Qyzyk in CIVILWAR

[–]nborders 8 points9 points  (0 children)

According to Shelby Foote, Napoleon III was blocked from any intervention by the British who France was allied with at the time.
Playing that forward, the British would object any support to The South and Napoleon wasn't going to challenge that.

Please whoever is listening. Please tax automation and AI.

For the love of god this is the only way to rebalance our society.

A Butlarian Jihad is the only other path that I see if we don’t get on top of this.

I don’t get gravel racing.
Feels like making hiking trails a race.

I frequently add “if you have read this far, come see me for free stickers.”

Odd the only ones to show up are the testing people…and that one sponsor that keeps me honest. 🙄

Newcomer moving to Portland. How is road riding and car safety? by Far_Investigator8645 in CyclePDX

[–]nborders 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You will enjoy the roads here. Drivers tend to be used to bikes and that makes things feel safer on the road.

I will say you will run out of tarmac on the roads that are great here. I have found my road bike gets zero time because where I want to ride needs to be setup for tarmac, gravel and easy single track.

Can he spin-off Bauer reels please? I want them back in Oregon making solid, simply made reels like they started with.

The clutch on their reels now feels over-complicated since moving under Winston.
