A decent bike needn’t be expensive. For as little as 300€, you can have a new bike that’ll do just fine for recreational use and simple commutes. Used bikes can usually be had really cheap, too, but for that you’d best know how to check the components and what to look for.
Race bikes, mountain bikes and pedelecs are a different thing, but those are either specialty sports equipment or luxury items.
Either way, (normal) bikes are easy and cheap to maintain, if used correctly.
Property acquisition in the US more expensive than in Europe? I think not, at least for the immense swaths of land that make up most of the US’ land mass.
The legal fees I see, but that’s why most developed nations have legislature for disowning property owners of land necessary for infrastructure at a set compensation. Whether that’s fair or just is up for ideological debate, I’m sure.
It’d be more fitting to mandate every product to include its ecological price. Disposable vapes, for example, would disappear instantly.
Oooooh, that’s a neat idea in light of the current EU legislation concerning the Right to Repair: Introduce a mandatory, highly visible, and standardized seal that all electronic devices have to display on the front of their box:
Repairable
or
Disposable
I hope Unity’s legal team is prepared.
I really hope they’re not, because this practice needs to crash and burn brightly as a warning beacon to other corpos’ grubby fingers.
It’s still a rather bad deal due to the inflated prices for health care in the US.
Ham, cheese, and mayo it is.
I’ll raise you some mozzarella.
What about potato salad, noodle salad and similar dishes containing cooked components?
Tuna and mayo it is.
More like when someone leaves a fingerprint on actual professional image editing equipment (refer to this insightful post by another lemmyng) and just rubbing spit on the screen will damage to screen.
For a phone screen, this cloth is overkill and absolutely unnecessary. You should put a sacrificial glass screen over expensive-to-replace phone screens anyway.
It gets much easier once you factor in that you, yourself, aren’t static and constant. The task isn’t to find someone capable of becoming perfect for you, it’s finding someone whose compatibility and willingness when taken into account with your own offers a fair chance to grow into a symbiotic relationship.
Given that I don’t have any personal gain from proliferating biking as a means of personal transportation, I’d rather consider myself a bike preacher.
