I strongly agree with this. I'm going to bookmark it and pass it on. Very sound advice.

Are the Europeans insane? The modern world is becoming a horror. I think I would rather live in a dark forest. Life is becoming pointless.

A large chunk of the population voted for this. Good going losers.

Arguing about AI is like arguing about bulldozers. It's just a tool.

20 years of stupidity. It took us that long to learn.

It's all fun and games until you shot your eye out.

I live on a bike. It's my primary mode of transportation. This could be a very interesting choice. Getting around is not about speed. It's about ease. If this system can get people around more easily then it's worth pursuing.

There are bicycles with chains, belt drives, pedal assist electric, and throttle electric. I would be interested to know if this system could work without plugging in, get me up a steep climb, and do it cheaply. I use chain drives but belt seems to be the winner at the moment.
