That's my secret, cap, I always have anxiety. (and *heavily* medicated for it, too. Once had a two-year nervous break-down. It's as unpleasant as it sounds. Would not recommend)

I use it. I like it.

I second Fuji.

101km today in 4 hours 29 minutes. Hit a bit of rain and some dumbasses jogging on the bike paths; was in a pretty foul mood by the end of it, which is unusual since riding is my stress relief. Total this year, 1,538km June 29: 130km today in 5 hours 44 minutes. Rode from Calgary to Canmore. Off to Radium today! Total this year: 1,668km

Hybrids: the best and worst of both worlds. If you're going with a manufacturer that has been producing hybrids for several generations now, then I'd say go for it. I, personally, would go for a plug-in hybrid, but I don't drive nearly enough nor does my apartment building have any charging infrastructure... plus I can't afford it.

Alpha Beta Fox did a great interactive music video a while back. You can walk around it in first person. https://somethingnothing.net/

I shit you not, I once had an HP printer back in the late 90s that was doing it's pre-print thing (you know, where it makes all that noise and moves the parts around a whole bunch) and it just kept doing it for an hour and nothing seemed to stop it, so I just unplugged the damn thing. It kept going for another 5 minutes even after I'd unplugged it.

Wait, supporting all HDR standards is illegal in Korea?

Lan party like it's 1998! Though, quite frankly, I don't want to live that long. We've done a great job at extending life, but not so much as extending quality of life. I read an interesting article on CBC where a doctor basically said he was going to stop taking medications and such once he hit 75 and then just let nature take its course. I'd rather die at 75 as my body is starting to crap out than spend another 25 years immobile and miserable.

Had to make this meme for this post.

Finally got out again today. 131km in 5 hours and 50 minutes, not bad considering it started out nice and sunny, around 34C, and around the 40km mark the temperature had dropped to 17C and it was pouring rain and hail. But I rode through it all; didn't stop for anything. All the other cyclists out there were taking shelter and I'm just like, "LET'S GOOOOOO!" I need to adjust my rear derailleur something fierce. Total this year: 1,437km

Like I said, I'm a dirty foreigner... I'm not sure I'm even eligible to buy a gun. I don't even want one!

I'm pretty experienced with the outdoors. I'm just more concerned about some wacko coming up and hacking me to pieces with a machete.

So... I was planning on going to Nevada for a few days to photograph the Milky Way late this week or early next week, but every place in Nevada I can find that would have nice dark skies to shoot under is going to be covered in cloud (and if I'm flying from Canada, I need a fairly clear forecast to justify the cost). So, I've identified an alternative site near Hanksville, Utah. So, my question is: Is it safe to be out in the desert at night by yourself in Utah? Am I more or less likely to end up in someone's freezer by going somewhere else?

*lifted* pickup truck with a "F*ck T*****" sticker on it If the cycling in this city wasn't so good, I'd have moved away a long time ago.

Try making eye contact to assert dominance, then maybe it won't be so defiant. ;)

164km again today, but it took longer. 7 hours and 31 minutes. I think it was the wicked headwind. Hit 66km going down the big hill. Total this year: 1,306km

Ah, a fellow star tracker, I see

Preferably, sooner rather than later. We're a plague on this Earth and nuclear fire is the anti-biotic.

Big day for me today! I did my first century ride of the year: 164km in 7 hours. I got home just as the sun was setting. My rear derailleur needs some adjusting as I was skipping gears a bit today, but that can wait for tomorrow. I picked up two foot long subs on the way home and promptly inhaled both of them. Total this year: 1,040km *Edit: June 6 Did 102km on the bike today! It was a good ride. Total this yea4r: 1,142km.

I can understanding replacing the steak knives with the broken tips, but couldn't you just have had your other knives sharpened? You know, I can't believe anyone would who knows Denis would take any of his advice.

Last time I went to Australia (2012 iirc) they took my laptop, camera, SD cards, ipod, and external HDD to check them (I'm was there to take landscape pictures) and I spent six hours in detention while they kept asking me where the CP was. They eventually did let me go because they obviously didn't find anything. I probably won't ever go back to Australia. I found the whole process ridiculous. NZ gets my tourist dollars now.

So long as I'm making enough, I'll take good work environment over higher pay. No sense making big bucks if every second of every day makes you want to kill yourself (this is why I'm not practicing law)

131km today in 5 hours 51 minutes. It was a good ride, despite the fact that I was (and still am) in a pretty foul mood. Total this year: 876km
