I have to head to work at 3:30 in the morning. Anybody have any thoughts about how to make my bike quieter on start up and fast idle? It’s a KLR 650 with an aftermarket muffler. It’s not straight pipe loud, but a thumper is going to thump....
Haha, als ich noch zur Schule ging war Luxemburg Stadt auch ziemlich provinziell, jetzt ist’s es immer noch aber einen Ticken weniger. Freut mich dass es dir gefallen hat.
I am currently on win10 but have been toying with mint and liking it. I intend on fully switching over soon. I have also been toying with the idea of some simple 3D modeling, like making custom parts for projects around my house. Maybe using a CAD software to generate stls for a 3D print or using it to spec out parts for a...
FreeCAD is really good nowadays. You need a bit of time to get into it but then it comes with everything needed also for complex multi-part assemblies.
I’ve made a large number of custom prints, and all of them were created using TinkerCad. It’s an amazing toolkit, stupid easy to use but versatile. That is … until something needs a tiny adjustment somewhere. That’s when I feel it would’ve been neat to use parametric CAD instead....
Please don’t get me wrong, this is not meant to be rude slander. MX Linux is not a bad Distro at all (even tho I’ve always opted for Debian instead) and peops are free to use what suits them best....

I’m thinking of logging travel expenditures with a group of people, where different ones can pay bills for the group (or maybe part of the group). It would be the best if you can see how much the group or a person spent, how much you need to pay whom back at the end of a trip....
There are a bunch of alternatives that don’t require everyone to install some software disrespectful to your privacy : spliit.app for example or splitio.vercel.app
I try to put them outside in indirect sunlight first and then gradually in the full sun for some time. I also do this since the lighting is not great inside.

Wow, I never thought about that being a problem. Is it the heat or also the strong sunlight? Because you could imagine making some kind of shade structure.

I’m afraid that’s not how it works. You’ll have enormous amounts of really salty water that you need to get rid of. Usually you’ll just put back from where you took it thereby increasing salinity which is not good™ for ecosystems.https://wired.com/…/desalination-is-bo…
Probably because it’s expensive and needs a lot of land. My point is still valid. The brine is a problem. Just like trash being a problem if not recycled properly (because it’s more effort than just dumping or burning it).
That being said, I love the idea of having quasi infinite sweet water supplies but unfortunately it’s not that simple.
Busch Müllers are great such as IXXON Core. Also, I’ve noticed more and more people having very bright bike headlights that don’t point downwards enough. They blind the hell out of me during my commute. Please do me the favor of orienting your light downwards and not pointing it into my eyes.

Any recommendations for bike lights? They all seem to come with non-replaceable internal rechargable batteries these days 😢
