  1. Re:Sure, and then.... on Let the Games Be Doped · · Score: 1

    Each to their own. I, for one, see merit in both physical human challenge AND engineering endeavour. And I love my carbon fiber/titanium road bike that weighs < 7Kg.

    everyone should be riding the exact same bike.

    You don't ride, do you?

    Off to Digg for you AC, and hand in your geek card in exchange for sunglasses that don't fit on the way out.

    joking about the name got old in a hurry.

    Maybe, but I still dig hearing stories about my secretary playing with her boyfriend's wii.

    Not cycle commuted, but I have visited San Francisco. It's actually a lot like Sydney, albeit with more hills in the CBD. (and the Harbour isn't as pretty ;) Greater Sydney has plenty of hills too.

  7. Re:The electric car you want is ready now: on Mercedes To Phase Out Gasoline By 2015 · · Score: 2, Informative

    You've obviously never ridden. I commuted a 40k round trip in Sydney for years. I got to work ten minutes quicker than driving through traffic, easily enough time to freshen up. Clothes and laptop were carried in a lightweight waterproof backpack. And the more you do it, the easier it becomes.

    Rain could be a pain, but wet weather cycling gear is amazing stuff.

    How the fuck is that a troll?? Some folks might see it as flamebait, but disagree != troll. Dumb fucking mods.

    What is it with the American obsession with bear arms?? I, for one, pity all of the armless bears wandering around.

    Sounds like you have some insight into this, Composite Armor! That's reassuring. I'd sure hate my Easton Carbon Fiber road forks to fail at 90kph...

    In breaking news, a nerd named Dennis Carr who often posts to tech site "Slashdot", spontaneously combusted just after 6PM last night. Police are at a loss to explain the occurrence...

    In other news, Houston police are unable to explain a series of horizontal lightning bolts, accompanied by rumblings that occurred just after 6PM last night...

    Everyone should embiggen their vocabulary from time to time, though unfortunately a lot of people will just question the cromulence of any new words :/ I agree, albeit with some thrnoilghlefgn.

    Wrong, verging on flamebait. Chances are they're supporting software running on a Windows OS, and the first point of call when troubleshooting is to start from a fresh reboot.
