People already fall off and eat shit on these things frequently
Exactly, the one wheel is inherently dangerous, because it only has one wheel, because how it is told to move forward/backward and because you're standing on it rather than sitting or holding on to it.
Fuck, those 2 wheeled lil things from hell that have a steering wheel to hold onto are already a major danger for most people.
A one wheel is 100x more dangerous to control and adding features that make it even more dangerous, not to protect the rider, but to protect the one wheel, is just asking for trouble.
McD is hella expensive, especially if you have to live of of it.
A 8-10€ basic menu is good to fill in a single meal, but while having a ton of calories, doesn't satiate enough to count even as a full meal (which is on purpose so you order more). At my local prices, you're looking at 13-15€ minimum, to have a satiating meal out of McDonnalds.
Those 1€ (1.40 in Austria apparently) burgers are barely enough to satiate a child, if combined with fries. They are nowhere near enough to feed an adult.
The 1,40 burgers are barely enough to satiate a child, even with fries.
A menu that can fill an adult, that's 13-14€ easily. And that's still just one meal.
The quality 3 meals a day I consume and make at home average 5€ per portion. resulting in 450€ food budget per person per month, I generally go for white label products if the quality is good enough.
That's 900€ a month for 2 people for food alone (this was 300ish before COVID).
850-1000€ for entry level 1 bedroom rent here, brings us to 1750-1900€ a month for a roof and food, another 75-100 for electricity (and then you have to be very usage conscious) brings us to 1825-2000€ a month, add required insurance (fire/health/accidents) for another 50-100€ brings us to 1875-2100€ a month.
Now, a phone and internet sub are pretty much a requirement these days, so say the cost of a cheap phone, internet and gsm abbo combine to be another 50€ a month per person.
So we're at 1975-2200€ a month to cover the very basic living expenses for a 2 person household.
You'd need to have one person with a decent wage or two people working minimum wage to barely get by.
Any surprise or extra cost and you're in the red.
Eating McDonnalds to cover breakfast, lunch and dinner every day, you'd need over 2000€ for food alone.
Mostly Visual Studio Ultimate for general workloads, regardless of what I'm writing for, it has the facilities to support pretty much every compiler and format.
For quickly editing / patching some source on Linux, just plain Nano.
Otherwise, these days, mainly VSCode.
But if I get into an environment where it's another IDE, I wouldn't care either way.
I'm language and editor agnostic and use editors out of convenience (like having Visual Studio Ultimate available to me) and languages depending on what is most appropriate for the task.
My biggest pet peeve in development is that people keep shoehorning their preferred language onto any task.
You sit in a car and on a bicycle you're either attached by 4 or 5 points to the entire thing.
On a one wheel, you're a pivot.
And the cutting out power thing you suggest creates a situation where the cooperation between your balance and the balancing mechanism of the one wheel suddenly disappears, throwing your balance off, which combined with your body as the top of the pivot keeping momentum while the one wheel stops, creates a majestic launch to make you eat shit.
Seriously, people, start filtering out who gets to tell you shit.
Of course, don't overdo it and create an echo chamber for yourself, block the extremes, but don't block basic disagreement.
I started doing this years ago, primarily on Twitch.
I despise copy pastas and edgelord comments, it's why I generally watch streamers that have a relatively chill and small audience.
But I do go into Kripps chat simply to fill up my block list with people that relentlessly spam chats with copy pastas and other similar sorts of comments.
Later I started being a bit more gung-ho doing the same on all platforms and it made all types of social media oh so much better.
You'll quickly notice that a lot of the comments that put your teeth on edge came from the same few loud and obnoxious people, because once you start blocking people like that, after just 10-20 of them, the comments you see are already far more palatable.
You can't wear casual wear in the Senate without being excluded, but you can show revenge porn on the House floor and probably actually gain votes by doing so.
