Fat kid is child abuse (unless medical condition) and the young bike needs to be rated for the weight otherwise it’s also child abuse. But older bikes usually have steel wheels while younger bikes have aluminium bikes, so the weight capacity is larger with older bikes (not that it matters for kids though).

Oh no, I totally agree with you, it was just a tip in addition, I wasn’t arguing what you said.

Then get one at the black market because then you pay what they are worth. Also, they are perfect if you like to maintain your bike, as you have to do it often. They break down often, especially breaks. Easy to maintain? No. Lots of sensor errors, software issues, etc. It’s fancy looking (well, I find them ugly AF) Chinese junk which have increased accidents exponentially since they arrived on the market. Next to that they are getting banned now, with Amsterdam as a first banning them at certain places. They also want to change regulations to make helmets mandatory for them and raise the minimum age.
Want an electric bike? Get a non-smart one. No Vanmoof or anything like that. They are junk (I had one, they are awful and insanely overpriced).
Best advice I can give you is a Gazelle or similar brand, with a Bosch middle motor (so not in the wheels, as they suck).

There are also puncture self repairing tires now. They have a gel like layer on the inside which gets pushed out into the hole sealing it. I have them and haven’t had a flat in over 5 years.

Yeah, plus no fat bikes at all!

Living in a big Dutch city. Cyclists just be like: I have to be careful not to hit any more dumb suicidal tourists. For fuck sake, I have had to repair my bike twice this week already.

I don’t understand why this is an issue. I refer to it as classics too. It’s all music from my childhood as I’m from the 80s. Modern music can not compete.

slightly richer guy
The wealthiest co-founder Max Temkin has an estimated wealth of 250 million. Elon is now at almost 700 billion.
Musk is 2800 times wealthier than Temkin. The word “slightly” is mathematically incorrect.

I think you definitely need to be in the committee, you have great ideas.

I’m in South Africa on holiday, I’m drinking Castle milk stout 6%. I chuck them like regular beers, I drink faster than my friend who drinks regular beers.
But how can you get drunk fast from those lemonades, it’s just liquid sugar, you can’t drink much of that without throwing up.
- Comment on If you want to be successful this is the question you have to ask yourself everyday 1 week ago:
Do you mean actual beers, or the lemonade in the photo? Because I’m drinking 0.5L stouts right now. After 10 I plan on doing some cocain so I can drink another 5.

You can get Bluetooth to aux devices so you can send music over Bluetooth. Works great, did that for a long time myself.
- Comment on Disc drive needed 1 week ago:
I plan on doing the same for my current vacation to South Africa. Otherwise I’ll never look at the photos again.

North Korean music. Typical propaganda music in North Korean style. Women singing about soldiers and the great leader (I assume, I don’t speak Korean but this is what I was told). If interested I can share, in September after my vacation in South Africa.

My old pc’s still have drives I use sometimes. Or well, only my previous pc. My oldest one, the one I built when I was 18 (21 years ago), still works but it’s a time capsule. Running state of the art XP and photoshop 7, Winamp, C&C red alert 2, age of empires 2.
Last time I burned a cd was to copy a CD a friend bought in North Korea. Maybe I’ll backup some photos on a dvd in the future. Because fuck cloud services.

We already elected Trump, Putin, Modi, Xi, Netanyahu. Phase one is done. Next phase: final world war, total annihilation. Give Earth another 1000 to 10.000 years to recover after humans have been wiped out.

Is that old? I still have devices using tulp. Modern day mixers and CDJ’s still use tulp connections, as do proper amps.

They should steal what they need, as long as it’s from big corporations and not from other struggling people. Because I cannot change the system, so stealing is the only option.
And help can be in the form of donating to the food bank, volunteer at the salvation army, or like me, help out at the neighborhood community house to help people with doing taxes, request subsidies like child support and apply for the food bank, provide homeless people with warm clothing during the cold months, etc. I also help with a soldering club, to repair broken devices so people don’t have to buy new ones or refurbish discarded devices which will be donated to people in need.
In my city there are many social systems to help people. I help people use these systems. If your city/country doesn’t have systems like these, you can help by setting them up with foundations.
A group is as strong as the weakest link. If we ensure the weak will have a better life, the entire group (our society) will profit from it with less substance abuse, less crime, better quality of life, heath and and safety. Improving quality of life starts at the bottom, not at the top.

Mate you sound exactly like me when I was 16. I had an opinion on anyone who wasn’t forming to society standards. I grew up in a middle class white neighborhood in a rich country. Then when I grew older and left my parents I was struggling financially. Then I joined the navy and went to war zones and third world countries. Then I started to live in neighborhoods with a lot of struggling people around me of mixed cultures and backgrounds. My parents still sound like 16 year old me, just like you, while I know better than to judge others who I know nothing about but are different to privileged standards. I now help the struggling people around me instead.

Why would they increase the price, that would only make more people steal it. Also, with the price wars between stores (which is huge here in The Netherlands), they can’t afford making things more expensive while their competitor keeps it at a low price. Usually they do more checks at the self checkout counters with certain products as certain combinations of products are common with stolen items. Also, contrary to what they claim, they also check certain people based on their looks. I know because I’m never checked, but when I dye my hair purple I’m checked 14 out of 15 times (yeah I counted). Also my darker skin colored friends are checked more often while the store keeps claiming it’s all random.
