I’ve had Philips hues for a few years now. And they’re still going strong.
Also. I will vouch for smart lights. Unlike some smart appliances, I can fully see the advantage to them. Laid in bed all comfy and can’t be arsed moving but need to turn them off? Have no bullets for your designated light turning off gun? Just open the app, and you can turn them off, or whatever colour that works for you. Or just tell Alexa to do it.
If, by some miracle, I ever get a girlfriend, and we’ve been together for ages, and we’ve got that extreme comfortability, I’m definitely trying this once.
“I’m flirting with you,”
“Why? Don’t lie to me.” Whilst I’m making a mental list of absolutely everything why that’s complete bollocks
Yes, mummy.
You’ll start making jokes about this, and then it’ll catch up to you. Then you’ll remembee this comment as you and your partner are sat in a pissy bath tub
I wouldn’t really say they’re terribly inefficient. They’ve got a lot of practical uses.
And I wouldn’t say cars themselves cause the deaths. Its the dickheads who drive the cars. Much like how a push biker, who looked like he was about to stop at some light that he was supposed at, decided to just go faster and swerve straight in front me, causing me panic, slip my bike into neutral when I wanted second, put on my revs whilst being in neutral, then having to aggressively throw my bike to the left, just so that I wouldn’t plow straight into him. This cause me to have to the thread the needle between him and another push biker who I could’ve easily hit as well. If I were in my car, chances are I would’ve clipped either of them, and it would’ve been their fault. Not the cars.
Whilst they can take up a lot of space, it should be important to know that quite a lot of the time, cars here drive over roads that would’ve originally been planned for horse and carriages. And only really just adapted for cars. You can see that on UK country roads.
Do you mind me asking where you’re from? I haven’t really seen anything like the last point where I’m from. Quite a few places are pedestrians and push bikes only. With very few exceptions. That could also be because you rarely see big cars here. This also applies to taking up excessive land.
I do believe that public transport should be a lot better. I live in a small village about 10 miles from the nearest city. And I work in the city centre. My only options are either pray that a bus actually shows up and isn’t late, or take my car to the tiny not really built for cars alley and risk scraping it. The other issue with public transport is, if I have to try to get to the very back of a bus, and pray that no one sits near me, or sit in a place I will feel extremely uncomfortable with. Both of these options mean that I need to have something I can squeeze the shit out. And shelter myself in and try to be as invisible as possible. I do not have these issues with cars or motorbikes. Cars because I’m in my own personal space where I feel a ton more comfortable, and the bike where it lets me hide the entirety of my body, again, making me feel a lot more comfortable.
Damn, I kinda wanna play my English ninja wkth the Japanese word for ninja. But I do not want to end up like that.
My motorbike fixes my issues whenever I go on it. And the thought of going for a ride can calm me down sometimes. But it’s usually more powerful when I actually get out.
Absolute twat. You should’ve popper their tyres.
Well, at least you didn’t really like the Adidas Predator’s.
Are you talking aboit motorbike vespas? Because if they’re OK the pavement, then they shouldn’t be allowed to have one. Unless vespa also does scooters/bicycles.
As someone who doesn’t ride bicycles. What’s the huge issue with cars? They’re a ton more effective than bikes.
I think motorised vehicle owners and cyclists just have a universal hate for each other. Well, a lot of people do. There’s a ton of people on bikes that are absolute cunts, and that comes from bad experiences with them.
Maybe if we all use the things how we’re supposed to, a lot of this hate would disappear.
Edit: Thinking about it, as someone who rides a motorbike, some car drivers are just as bad. I’ve genuinely noticed that actual licenced motorbike riders tend to be the best out of them all. My main asking point was that you can’t really do a full weeks worth of shopping with anything other than a car. U less you get it delivered.
If it’s a 2 stroke vespa, yeah, they have that smell. It’s also an easier way to differentiate between old classics and new ones. I don’t have any experience with new vespas, but I think they would’ve gone to 4 strokes now.
I’ll also point out. At least in the UK, 50cc riders tend to be absolutely brain-dead morons.
You can usually tell which ones are the culprits because they’ve fucked their exhaust. And ride around like, “yeahhh look at me, I’m so cool with my shit sounding underpowered bike.” No mate, you get maybe 35mph if you’ve de-restricted it, and you’re borderline red lining it. Calm down. You just look stupid. Same goes for 125’s sure they get a bit of extra speed and can get to 70, but it’ll take like 2 minutes to get up to speed and abusing your engine.
Fuck most delivery drivers as well.
See, I’m the opposite. I suffer from depression and riding/driving really helps with that.
Only I don’t get all that angry when I do. If someone annoys me, I just go for a simple under-my-breath “you twat”.
The bike works best for it. The big vroom helps quieten the sadness. Kinda hard to be sad when you’re sat on top of an explosive fuel and thousands of explosings happening between your legs. It’s kinda calming. To me, at least.
Before anyone asks, no I haven’t fucked my exhaust. It’s still the stock one.
See, that’s exactly why I don’t use an Ash tray or a bin.
I don’t throw it on the ground either. I just swallow it. There is no need to worry about littering or finding somewhere for it that way.
Used Firefox android for at least a long arse time now. I can’t remember any issues. Other than one site, but that works perfectly in duckduckgo browser.
I thought it was 5 litres to a gallon, honestly.
1.48 euro is 1.29 gbp.
Our petrol is about 1.59 last time I checked. Can you lot send me a few gallons?
There’s even 28 horsepower rigjt in front of you.
