Pfft, no!

OS/2 Warp

Or just "Cheggers" to his mates

Detroit: Become Human.

The demo gives you one level, playing as an android helper to the police, helping to solve a murder.

The full game really took me through the looking glass in terms of empathy. Can't really say more without significant spoilers.

I like those too, sorry.

Yeah, I got a basic reader about 10 years ago, for what would be €20 in today's money. It's saved me hundreds.

Only problem is motorbikes don't have standard ODB2 ports so I have no idea why the light is on on my little 125 :-/

This may be "old man yells at cloud" energy, but my first reaction was just a broad negative "urgh."

Where did it come from Cotton Eye Joe?

Protip: Live in Europe and you don't even need to go anywhere :-)

I'm 46, the parts of my life where I haven't needed to use a car every day have been great for my physical and mental health ... now I live too far from work I use a little 125 motorbike to commute, and it's still much nicer than having to take a car. When I am forced to take a car, the one I have is small and economical.

I didn't start figuring this out until I was 30, maybe you need a few more years to mature enough to throw off the consumerist mindset?

At 85 years old my Mum can't drive or walk, she does her own shopping with an electric mobility scooter and occasionally needs the help of others ... that works fine for her because she lives in what might be called a "15 minute city" these days.

Just walk in to the local shop on your way to/from wherever else you're going (or just to get out of the house for two minutes if you've been working from home) ... that way you can have fresh ingredients every day, and you're walking a bit regularly so you don't get overweight easily

That sounds cool, I kinda want a Star Trek themed bandana now ...

Fair point, they're somewhat limited in patterns though aren't they? (I don't know, I'm in Europe and about the only time I've seen someone wearing a bandana they were cosplaying American bikers)

I have this sort of thing all the time here in Spain, though with shit/sheet.

There's plenty going the other way too, of course. At least I don't mistake miedo and mierda these days ...

Then you saw her face?

As a woman with a high hairline, I embraced having nice hats ... seriously, I love my hats and there's no reason dudes can't as well :-)

I also rock lots of headscarves, but that's a bit more gendered :-/

I thought it was just funny that the term "walkable" for some people invokes the idea of using bikes

Flip side? Uhura is fucking awesome and inspired my mum (now 86) to become a lifelong Trek fan. I'm also a lifelong fan, and I've been able to introduce it to my wife, who is also a fan now.

In summary, there's plenty of Trek fans who aren't straight white cisgendered men, and the number of toxic morons in this cohort feels much much less than in just about any other mainstream fandom.

Wouldn't that make it a bikeable city?

I live in Europe, not about to break out the bike to go less than a couple of km

Walkable city means taking a bike. Got it.
