I suppose that is what you get when you base your article on reddit opinions. Apparently a raspberry pi is one of the best gadgets I can get for my bike. If you say so xD

Lol wut. Literally anywhere you live in the world if you have a casual conversation with someone they generally expect you to have some knowledge of the local geography.
PS Plus was always like this, maybe they only had one tier before and the prices have been jacked up since but it was always the case that the free games each month were trash and nothing anyone really wanted to play. I used to pay back in the Vita days and would “claim” everything I could but I very rarely played anything they gave away.
There is a project that repurposes a blackberry keyboard to make a detachable android keyboard that I have saved somewhere. Phones are too big as it is however and adding that on, plus the cost being about 50% again over what I spent on the actual phone I’m not super keen on that.
I just want a blackberry key three xD
Jeez everyone carries a lot of shit in their pockets.
I carry my bank card in a side pocket down by my right knee and occasionally keys in the front left pocket.
I don’t even want the slide mechanism, just the keyboard. Blackberry keytwo is the greatest phone / form factor of recent years imo
I ride a Ragley Trig which I would recommend if the company hadn’t been shuttered. It has been a good year since I was looking at bikes and can’t remember anything else I was looking at to offer as options.
However I do have a tyre recommendation in the Panaracer Gravel King. There are a couple of versions but I run the 650b x 48c Gravel King Slicks for all on road duty. They are a great, fast rolling but larger volume tyre for that additional comfort and make for a great training tyre sacrificing a little speed for that extra comfort. There is also one or possibly 2 other versions of the Gravel King that have more tread for more off road capability and based on my experience with the slicks (approx 500km so far) they are definitely worth having a look at.
Not that I have read about but I also haven’t looked to try and find out if it is a thing. I play everything I’m ripping at no faster than 2x in the hopes that it looks like normal enough activity whilst still saving me some time.
As I have said though I have been using soggfy for over a year now, ripping probably around 5000 tracks at a guess and had no issues what so ever :)
Yeh,i had the titan for around a year and a half. It was a decent piece of hardware with a keyboard that was fairly decent (not as good as blackberry still).
The problem with them is the software and support. The keyboards just about work but aren’t integrated into the whole experience like you got with a blackberry. It always felt a bit awkward and some choices were just weird, as if the programmers never tried actually using what they programmed.
I tried to put a custom ROM on mine but could never get the boot loader to unlock as it should have so ultimately I gave up as the positives for me of having a keyboard were being outweighed by the jank
As a skateboarder I know the pain of tiny rocks and imagine it would be like that but with possibly more speed!
They look fun as a novelty for sure though.
There have been plenty, some that have come to fruition. The first and only thing I have ever back was the planet computers “Astro Slide”, I will never participate in crowd funding again after that fucking shit show.
At the end of the day though they don’t usually attract enough backers to really make a decent product out if it, which is a shame.
Soggfy works perfectly as of Monday when I last used it.
You download a modified version of Spotify and then it rips the audio Spotify itself is sending rather than locating poor quality yt versions etc. If you pay for premium then you can get 320 mp3s or ogg files.
I’ve been using this for a little over a year and never once had an issue with it so worth checking out :)
Yeh, I’d like to give one a go for the novelty factor but they don’t seem like a solid safe transport option.
Someone in my town has one that does like 50kph. He wears leathers and a helmet etc but imagine trying to emergency stop when your brakes are “lean back”, you are never stopping in time in a real emergency. Fuck that.
I enjoyed this game on the vita a lot but seem to remember later on in the game the upgrade materials you needed to advance started to become absurd. I’m happy to do a little bit of grinding but ultimately I dropped it cause I was sick of doing the same shit over and over with no success.
I do think it would benefit from the addition all triggers however and if they do a PC port I’ll probably pick it up and give it another go.
Bad Company 2 was peak, it has been all downhill from there!
I mean, the 6a still has 3 years of support left so whilst it is older it is hardly at the end of its supported life.
Not everyone can change a battery in a phone, I can but I would still rather not do it on a phone that isn’t really anything special and whilst yes they could feasibly last that long I think in practical everyday use application by the time you are getting to three years of daily use it will be beaten up and physically not in great shape any more for your average user.
My favourites are Saucony, Adidas or Hoka. Adidas I would shy away from recommending to other people though as I’ve had some amazing shoes from them and some fucking terrible shoes so it is some what hit and miss. For me Saucony are always on point but always tend to be harder to find a good deal.
I usually trawl eBay and a few different websites looking for current stock they are trying to move and often end up with different shoes every time because of this, although j don’t mind that too much. I have size 12 feet which usually narrows down my choices anyway but I’d say I average around £40 - £45 sort of area for shoes. Sometimes I’ll have to buy slightly more expensive. I got some Saucony once that were second hand and worn for about 50km for £15 and they lasted a good 800km.
What relevance does that have to what I said? If the physical phone isn’t going to last that long then I’d argue it is of little importance.
Those look like leg pain incarnate! I used to run every day for a few years and would get through 3 pairs of shoes at least in a year. Depends on the shoes but they always started affecting my body detrimentally between 600 and 800km, I think the best ones I had may have lasted to 900 but it wasn’t the norm.
Yes they may be expensive but you can find bargains if you look and the cost is worth not fucking your legs up IMO.
Another almost guaranteed way of converting someone to the fuck cars mentality, ride a bike on the road and around traffic.
In relation to your post in the past I have worked as a parking CEO (civil enforcement officer - modern name for traffic warden)
We had to do school watches every day, covering different schools within our area and issuing fines to people that try to stop / park in areas around schools, particularly the yellow zig zags directly at the exits of the school.
The amount of abuse you got every time you were near a school, these idiots don’t seem to realise you are there to try and enforce rules that help keep their children safe as well as others. Parents are some of the most entitled pieces of shit, especially around schools.
Like you say as well, most of these fucks driving to pick up their little shits live less than 5 minutes by car from the school.
Fuck them and their cars!
