Eagle claw, screeeeech.

Occasionally break out the burner, it’s just very rare. Plus these days it’s a portable little usb drive.

There’s supposedly a lot of truth to that in general. Vehicle dynamics wasn’t really a thing until we had well developed aerodynamics, and there were a lot of aerodynamics engineers looking for work post-WW2. So, we went from just kind of winging it in chassis/suspension development to actually systematically working out how to design it because of that knowledge transfer.

Drop Site is not a simple “substack blog.” It’s a new project created and run by journalists/founders from The Intercept who parted ways because of their mismanagement. Everyone including the journalist who shared this article has extensive experience as a professional journalist and bylines with major publications.

Is Time a blog because it runs on Wordpress?

Stuff along the lines of Luigi-posting. CTH was much more of a proper “all the left” community with everyone from soc dems on up that was largely just filled with anti-establishment shit posters. But, we loved John Brown etc.

It’s actually old hat. Users on r/cth (where hexbear came from) were catching admin bans for upvoting the “wrong” posts years ago.

Explicitly lefty publisher, but the ebooks are DRM free and they include them for free alongside any physical purchases. (They do tag the ebooks with your name and email though.)

Had my dog freak out about me getting bored and putting on my full faced helmet that he’d never seen me in as it was for racing autocross/formula SAE. Made for some fun chasing around as he was particularly worried about the helmet itself even after it was off. But, otherwise…

The padding goes on the inside and they should be worn commando, too. Couple common mistakes with padded bike wear.

IIRC this is something that’s been getting rolled out poorly for quite a while now. They want to create a central login/authentication system (login.gov) for government websites, a generally solid idea, but the transition has been a bit of a mess everywhere it goes.

This is a classic example of people not respecting bikes. That’s like saying you’re allowed to make a right turn in front of someone from the left lane as long as you’re just a bit ahead of them.
