Was thinking about this today. Windows installs (by default) to C-drive, "C:\" It's called that because early computers had up to two floppy drives, "A:\" & "B:\". Software developers hard-coded that into early programs & then it just became the default assumption, even after floppies went away.

I think this is a 1980 IBM PC, an ancient computer with two 5.25" floppy drives, a proper CRT that probably weighed 35 lbs, and a massive keyboard built from a typewriter layout.

Sat next to a crying baby for the entire flight. I don't mind though. Feel like they were the only other passenger who truly grasped the unnatural horror of our undertaking. Man does not belong to the sky. The real monsters are those who remain silent.

Planting palms along highways and around interchanges is stupid. They cast no shade, require regular maintenance, and become projectiles in big storms. But hey, look, it's Florida!

Urbanist Don Draper. If you don’t like what’s being said, change the conversation. They call the 15-minute city a prison. It’s not a perimeter, it’s time. Time you get back from the highway. Time to drink a coffee on a patio. You aren't trapped. You're finally home.

There are many advocates that need to stop defending e-motos as if they're bicycles. The longer we pretend this scrutiny is unwarranted, the more damage it does to actual e-bikes, which are legitimate tools enabling people to safely and affordably ditch their cars.

It is a very climate positive activity. Golf courses are some of the most destructive uses of land. They use gigantic amounts of water in areas where there is hardly enough drinking water. And cycling is a very positive activity for the climate.
