Or do what a lot of cyclists do: bus or drive during bad weather.
Buses where I live take nights, Saturday evenings, Sundays, and major holidays off. (Source: fwcitilink.com) Bad weather on a Sunday means you now have to pay for driving lessons (thousands of dollars if your state has adopted mandatory supervised driving), a car (thousands of dollars), parking, fuel, and insurance.
If they're too young to ride there are lots of options for the parents to bring them along on a bike (via trailer, bakfiets, or whatever).
I shopped for trailers designed for carrying children, and the one I found had a maximum weight of 50 pounds or 22 kg per child. This leaves a gap between when a child becomes too heavy to carry safely in the trailer and when the parent deems the child mature enough to negotiate city streets on a bicycle. I had to look up "bakfiets" and it's apparently Dutch for a freight bicycle, which I've never seen in operation in my home town despite a growing cyclist presence. How large of a child can be carried in one?
I expect to ride on the center of the rightmost, non-parking available lane
A couple weeks ago, a cop gave me a hard time for riding my bike in the right half of a street's only through lane when the lane to my right was marked right turn only. "Get over to the right or use the sidewalk." Do you expect to go straight in right turn only lanes?
I run red lights only when the light is stuck because the induction loop isn't set sensitive enough to detect the rims directly over the crack in the road.
The design that moves the titlebar and menubar into the toolbar, which you referred to as "this disaster", gains two lines of vertical space in the document compared to the old UI. With 16:10 and portrait displays hard to find especially in laptops, how else is the user supposed to make the best use of vertical space?
And when did it change? You give a screenshot of 3.11.92, while a Gedit 3.10.4 user on another forum offers this screenshot that has the old UI. Did it change between 3.10 and 3.11? The user also says the screenshot is from "Gnome in Classic mode."
Most companies that I've been with, going back as far as the 1980's have had a "don't about the company on anything policy". That includes even saying that you work for xxx because it could imply an endorsement by xxx.
I wonder if this policy could be turned into a question for The Workplace Stack Exchange. Do you have a citation for this policy, or do reliable citations for this not exist because they would also violate confidentiality?
That includes even saying that you work for xxx because it could imply an endorsement by xxx. It's not a new thing and an easy one to follow.
If taken strictly, this would preclude even naming your past employers on your resume. Why is it desirable that future employers lack knowledge of a candidate's experience?
a big part of what we use language for is identifying group membership (ie: ebonics)
Just a point of order: ebonics refers to black language, or is abused to mean the study of black culture (ebony + ics). It doesn't relate to group membership of just any group, particularly not pasty white British people:)
In context, it means group membership of those who self-identify with a group that speaks a historically black dialect. Where I come from, white people who associate with such groups are called by a word that literally means "suppliers of hairpieces".
Another supreme irritation is when I email a person, but they call me back. maintain parity and answer the email.
Consider this sequence of steps: 1. Receive and read e-mail. 2. Disconnect from the Internet while maintaining connection to telephone network. 3. Think of reply to e-mail.
The following options are available: A. Make a phone call. B. Wait hours until you are again connected to the Internet through a device with a keyboard with which to compose an e-mail. C. A third option (please describe in detail)
What criteria would one use to choose between these two? If neither, what is your third option?
If you call me and I don't answer, I'll call back.
Provided you're on a line with Caller ID. Many landlines still do not because not every head of household thinks it's worth an extra $100 per year. Voicemail at least contains the caller's phone number.
How would one get stuck? Connect USB flash drive containing the operating system installer to USB port, connect a second flash drive containing additional drivers if necessary to second USB port, and reinstall.
Even if not, the USA is under the sway of the allegedly totalitarian Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. If it weren't for USA's energy imports, its foreign policy makers might have been less likely to overlook rampant Saudi discriminatory treatment of women.

There's noting magical about cycling that makes you sweat more.
Other than the alternative being a car with an air conditioner in 90+ degree F (32+ degree C) weather.

the beloved GPL stands and falls with the existence copyright: no copyright, no GPL
No GPL, and it becomes lawful for dedicated amateurs to disassemble, document, and distribute proprietary programs.

So sports all-ages-restaurants do exist. Thanks for pointing that out, as I live in a 21-to-enter state and have cousins younger than that.
Can you imagine a interpreter of perl or python written in Java where no native option possible?
Yes, and it's called Jython.
Hard to understand the hate for Nintendo's "re-hashing" when it's prevalent from every manufacturer
Is lack of new settings also prevalent on PC?
In a way, Nintendo was lenient by not both firing and suing. Yet.

Composing a message on a flip phone's numeric keypad is a pain.
Compose on what? Paper and pencil? Besides, it shares the drawback with B that the recipient will not receive it for hours.

it's hard to go back over what's been said and gives you no mechanism to figure out exactly what you want to say before you say it.
If you are using a phone because of a lack of Internet access, you can make notes with paper and pencil before dialing.

That's their problem
What steps would they take to go about solving their problem?
why are you asking anybody else for solutions?
Because "anybody else" proposed blocking ads with the knowledge that ads are the primary source of revenue for many sites.
How is this any different from "I lost my drivers CD"?
How would one get stuck? Connect USB flash drive containing the operating system installer to USB port, connect a second flash drive containing additional drivers if necessary to second USB port, and reinstall.
