Eh, bicycle helmet I guess?

Maybe do robotics (likely in a simplified way; surely “robots for dummies” is a thing?) and have them make their robots compete in some sort of competition at the end of the year.

I’m not even a competitive person at all, but when our school had us compete on Popsicle stick bridges, I had a ton of fun. Creative projects with a clear, real-world benchmark at the end are really fun.

The return of mustaches.

Do we need a name? Most social networks don’t have a special name for their users.

Thanks! Hopefully my new tires are more resilient

Leftover powder on the road is a different beast. It’s often mixed up with a little bit of sand, and it’s been crushed into a powder that doesn’t feel like natural snow at all. It doesn’t stick and it slips like fine sand. Not a fun time. A little pile of 2-3 cm of the stuff was enough to almost make me completely lose control last year. Scary stuff.

People have tried to get me into Monster Hunter several times, with little success. There’s just a lot of work involved.

Lots of crafting and farming, and once you’re ready, the fight itself is a lot of work. It takes a long time due to large HP pools.

There are a zillion builds, and the story isn’t exactly deep enough to engage me despite the shortcomings. To me, it’s basically Elden Ring, but with the aspects I don’t like turned to 11.

Hmm, i see.

I’ll have a new bike with different winter tires this year but last year my bike would get dangerously destabilized by the smallest amount of leftover powder snow trail from the snow clearing machines, so I stayed well away from uncleared roads.

But for one, as you say, that was forgetting about how uncleared snow is not the same, and also, new tires this year.

I’ll give it a try next time. It’ll probably be safer to avoid the cars for a little bit longer anyway.

I live in the city though. It could easily recommend I use the street if it knew that winter is a thing. And uh… Idk, maybe cycling through deep snow works on a fat bike, but with a normal bike with winter tires like mine, I can’t just blast through 30+ cm of uncleared snow.

Often Google tries to have me cycle on a trail that has zero snow removal in the winter. So there’s that.

As a Canadian, I’m like:

You guys are getting food?

(School cafeterias with food service beyond selling terrible premade sandwiches for people who forgot their lunch are rare below college level and AFAIK what few exist all operate like a fast-food restaurant, where everyone pays for their meal then and there.)

I absolutely love wildly inaccurate old maps. They have so much charm.

I mean that’s still spending time outside. If parasols and big hats weren’t so thoroughly OUT fashion-wise where I live I’d absolutely rock one of those. The cooling effect looks really nice.

Well, that and my gigantic head doesn’t work with the vast majority of hats.

But yeah being in the shade barely counts as protection against UV radiation anyway. If you understand the science, you do that to cool down and to see better more than you do it to avoid UV rays.

I mean no one said “flee the sun”. They said “use sunscreen”.

As someone who played exclusively ARAM because I just don’t like the main game, even in LoL, that mode is pretty chill.

Either even salty people can calm down when the stakes are lower, either that mode mostly attracts the non-salty people, but yeah, I would rarely encounter toxic people.

Can you elaborate?

All of those issues sound like things the game developers should figure out solutions to. If there’s a boring behaviour that results in boring gameplay and people can’t do much against that unless they have overwhelming skill… Yeah sounds like a problem that they need to solve somehow.

Because games should be fun.

No, you misunderstand. It’s not expert sex change

It’s experts ex-chang’e. It’s a site for Chinese space program retirees.
