I haven't written cursive in many years, i should try it again but since i'm out of practice i find it takes more time to write than going print. Which of course does lead to hand cramps etc

This is also why they recommend not to use polarized while cycling, it can obscure slicks or water in certain sections. I still use mine but I know it's not as ideal as photo chromatic lenses.

I have a go pro but it's a bit of hassle to setup, I tried a chest mount and the angle wasn't great and I think the eye level view would look better. Also more convenient to record on glasses which I'll have to wear anyways.

Yes, I could record while talking to people but I wouldn't get the point of that, I want to record descents and pretty views.

My main point is someone owning smart glasses doesn't mean they automatically suck and should be ostracized.

I want to get the Oakley Meta ones so I can record bike rides easier, should I not be tolerated?

I think it was iOS 9 that had some glitch where the animations were completely disabled and it was a really awesome experience to click an app and have it instantly open with zero animations.

I used to feel this way until I discovered cycling, I started running because I don't want to bike in NYC winter weather. Highly recommending trying cycling since you get to make it as hard as you want and it builds amazing cardio

Yeah, during covid and little bit after I was in amazing shape because I was able to go on nice long bike rides a few times a week. It got me thinking what would our society feel like if everyone was able to exercise?

When I was young we had golden retriever and the first time he saw my neighbors pool he dove in immediately and started swimming. He wasn't a complete puppy so maybe he was more confident in his ability.

Google got hacked back in 2010, lookup Operation Aurora. It wasn't a full own, but it shows that even the big guys can get hacked.

I wish Apple would skip yearly macOS releases, there is no need.

Why do you need a blockchain for this? What benefit does it bring here?

I don't necessarily blame people for using AI to help them write or spruce something up, however I find the tone particularly off-putting.

These excerpts show off that "AI"-tone I'm sure most people see.

>The San Bernardino case is gone from headlines. >But the backdoor? It’s in your phone. >It’s in Google’s servers. >It’s in Meta’s messages. >It’s in the legal system that always wins. >Apple’s 2016 stand wasn’t forgotten. >It was buried under the next headline. >But it’s still true.

Imagine if we went further and put them on rails and interconnected them. Maybe even built dedicated tunnels for them.

The American Healthcare is so broken already that further breakage could be seen as an improvement.
