Animal consumption curves up, while population growth does not in an equal amount.

This is really cool. You know who made this?

Einfach mal den Musk move auspacken. Soviel zu den Freien "Demokraten".

I mean META is actually doing this! #aBoringDystopia

You're in good company. Germans have a similar relationship with their flag.

That's a great guess when you try to answer the problem with traditional (Newtonian) physics. However, space and time do not behave in a way we would expect when we go nearly at light speed. So Newtonian laws do not apply in the same sense anymore.

Things get really unintuitive when you go near the speed of light. Einstein's "Special Relativity" is describing that. Watch a couple of videos on the topic. It's mindbending but seriously cool.

In short: The speed light is always constant FOR EVERY OBSERVER. That means, if you would hold a flashlight in a very fast moving train, the light would travel as the same speed for you as for a stationary person that is watching your flashlight from outside the train.

But how could that be? Aren't you "adding" the trains speed to your flashlight? So shouldn't the light in your train travel faster in your train? Or maybe slower? No. Light speed is always constant - but what is NOT constant is space and time. It is relative to the observer. Time and space can stretch/dilate to make up for what seems to be a paradox. E.g. your trains would shrink in length the faster you go. But it would look different to you than it does to an outside observer.

As I said, it's mindbending, but there are a couple of cool and simple videos on the internet to get a better grasp on the matter.

I don't quite get that one?!

 

We all know "Putler" but I find "Titler" just hilarious and we should use it more often. 😂

The US is so intertwined with global politics and economy (e.g. financial markets, digital services, ...) that it's not just THEIR problem. If they drift further into fashism, oligarchy and right authoritarianism, sooner than later there will be a point where most of the world will be fucked in the short and possibly in the long term.

We need to fight this fight from our side as well, otherwise we all will go down. Our countries need to start pushing back against it and WE need to push our countries to do so. Write letters, go on protests, vote! Otherwise we might miss our window of opportunity to bring this spiral of destruction to a halt.

I can't either .... eat eggs anymore. 😇

Are people just downvoting because you're vegan?

Probably. Some people are fragile. 🤷

[–] maxmalrichtig@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

if you're vegan and in a band, which one do you talk about first?

As a vegan cyclist, I know the pain. 😜

And you are right. The topic is important to me, so tend to talk about it. 💚

 

Watch alternatively over Piped: https://piped.video/watch?v=GML5YFoNDJo

 

Another plus is: They are pretty easy to install as they have the clamp on the inner side of the handle and not on outer side (as the GP1 have). So interference with the break leaverclapmp is not that problematic.

 

I was on a short trip on the weekend and wanted to have my luggage on the bike instead of carrying it on my back. (Unfortunately, I don't have a front bag yet.)

Some detailed shots of the attachment:

Wooden rod attached to underside of Brompton Backpack and backpack shoulder straps layed over

During my trip I realized that my legs are hitting the rod a little. I repositioned it a little further back during the tour.

Backpack attached to Brompton rear rack

To increase the stability, you can wrap the rubber straps around the rack (behind the wheel) which will increase the tension of the straps.

The idea was taken from Gianni who has a lot of great tips around Bromptons touring: https://piped.video/watch?v=vfQe4f0jbZs

Hills! But I love hills! and sky, and space, & freedom, wild freedom

Original description from Video:

In May, I took my Brompton and my little tent and cycled through the Peak District, to go and see my Dad. There were a lot of hills - and quite a lot of inquisitive cows - along the way. I camped wild, close to Axe Edge Moor, high up at the watershed of two great river systems. And it was fantastic.

Hills aren't easy, but I love them. Especially these hills, close to where I grew up. I don't know what it is - something to do with being up high, the sky, and the space, and solitude, and a feeling of wild freedom.

And I hope you enjoy meeting my Dad! We are both being treated for cancer, and we both love being out on the bike.

Hope you like the film!

Hi everyone!

If anyone of you is interested in Bromptons, we are starting a small space for you and your stories over at !brompton@discuss.tchncs.de

Hope to see some of you there! Keep on riding.

 

The T Line is already such a great bike - but "Brompton Family Time" always need that special extra.

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION FROM VIDEO:

Please watch this video if you are interested in the custom parts that I have installed onto my Brompton T Line. At the end of the video I also include the final weight. Thank you for following along with this build. This is my dream bike that I have wanted for over ten years. I still love my superlight Brompton just as much as well as my all steel Brompton. They all have a purpose for me and I enjoy riding them all!
