Eh, I can’t fault it too much considering tires usually last over a thousand miles and most people buying a walmart bike aren’t riding thousands of miles.
I don’t agree with the general sentiment though, riding a well-maintained aluminum frame bike after thousands of miles on a slow ass walmart bike is such a different experience.
My walmart bike’s downtube failed as I was riding it up a small incline. Not even at a weld, just right in the middle.
Didn’t even know that was a part that could fail.
Had to replace the tires because the treads wore through once so it probably got more use than walmart bikes are built for.
That’s one of the wildest ones, like it just bypasses the critical thinking part of their brains. “Yes, there’s a town in North Korea surrounded by fake fields, which are harvested by fake farmers. They all live in fake homes and go into a fake school that that has power but don’t have any windows.”
Only problem is accepting dates in anything except YYYYMMDD, or unix time stamps if you need more precision.
Nope.
Oh, and I forgot to mention, Ronald Reagan’s admin was the reason NASA had to launch so quickly, he wanted to mention it during the State Of The Union Address.
We’re lucky that he didn’t give someone a medal for blowing up a passenger aircraft (again).
Back in the early 70s, NASA engineer tests on a part indicated that a joint with 2 O-rings was too wide and could expose the o-ring. Northrop Grumman and NASA’s project manager said it was fine, 2 o-rings meant one was redundent right? and the design made it into the solid rocket booster.
Then in 1977, a different test indicated 1 oring was letting gas during certain levels of mechanical stress. The engineers proposed a solution, which was ignored.
Then in 1980, they asked to test what would happen if 1 oring weren’t there and what would happen if the oring was cold. This was denied.
Then in 1981, a return booster was inspected and they found soot between the orings and one eroded, and the problem was added to the critical issues list. And ignored.
This happened again in 1984.
In 1985, they realized when the oring was cold at launch, the problem got way worse. Northrop Grumman finally changed the design to fix it.
But they had a bunch of the old, unsafe part laying around, and NASA didn’t want to miss deadlines, so in January of 1986, they launched a shuttle with the part that they knew was unsafe in cold conditions, coldest morning they’d ever launched and a middle-school class watched a live stream of their teacher exploding 10 miles in the air.
The USSR had 100s of nuclear reactors, yet the only meltdown was in the only nuclear plant that raccoons had access to.
Wait they introduced the most mischievous animal in existence to the place where they’re trying to contain the worst nuclear accident in history?
What was the results of the experiment?
They’re not non-native, but I’d love to introduce more mountain lions if they could be adapted to this sprawl. There’s way too many deer and feral cats around here.
It’s the thing you use to create a local copy of the main code base, and then merge your changes back in.
OP hasn’t done anything, and there’s 7 conflicts between his code and main. Presumably because someone else merged their changes in the time between when OP pulled his local copy and tried to push his (non-existent) changes.
That’s a cop-out. Why else would the companies agree to a fine for every bulb that exceeded a certain lifespan?
1923, virtually every capitalist country in the world had just invaded the USSR 5 years ago, Japan only pulled out in 1922.
The USSR being gone only becomes shocking post WWII when they went from an agrarian nation wracked by civil war and famine, with zero tractor factories to sending 100,000 tanks into Germany 20 years later to putting a man in space 20 years after that.
A company tried that in 1999/2000, just before the dot com bust.
We’re moving in that direction, but nothing is free.
They’ve got blast chillers, that are like air fryers/convection ovens, but cold.

skeuomorphism
The only time the chunkiness of grafting visual clutter and UI elements from a machine that was designed with mechanical constraints and older use cases/capabilities makes sense is if users will not have time to learn the UI and already learned another UI.
Using knobs you have to turn with the mouse with a wooden background instead of volume slider+number field because that’s what was on some piece of audio equipment from the 1900s just makes the software awful to use. It has no place in specialist audio software the user is expected to spend hours using.
It would be really funny if he took it up, and the republicans proceeded to block appointments until a conservative presidency.
