The article mentions regular (pedal) bikes are included.

"Pedal bicycles are also included in the generous incentive package, though e-bikes are contributing to one of the biggest jumps in cycling ever across Europe and much of the world."

Some websites I have signed up require a real phone number so they send a verification code on account creation.

Be warned: You need to enter a valid phone number. They will call you asking on what you plan on building with the software. I've had that happen to me within a few days of downloading the software.

Another person had the same experience. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24582890

Some people don't like Steam since its proprietary. I own around 200 games on Steam and almost all of them have Steam's DRM that prevents me from running the game without being logged into Steam.

Some games can be bought on Steam, GoG (DRM-free), and/or their website.
