OK. So bicycles have, as the name suggests, two wheels. The front wheel can be rotated for steering, while the rear wheel is for acceleration. You accelerate by alternately pushing down the pedals located approximately in the middle. Force is transferred from the pedals to the rear wheel usually via a chain, but other solutions, like a belt or axle, exist.
Since the wheels are in line the construction is prone to tipping to the side, so keeping the balance while sitting on it takes some practice.
But once you get the hang of it it’s one of the most versatile modes of transportation, with specialised bicycles (or “bikes” for short) for off-road use, extra light ones for racing, etc.😉
Have you heard of bicycles?

But you’re not the first one to make that up, at least.
Couldn’t find anything useful on what that might be.

182·10 months agoWell, the whole reason people have to “adopt and learn” is because M$ bought their way onto virtually every new PC sold back in the 90s, so people’s first experience would be their “operating system.”
Talk about leveraging anchoring bias.
I’d argue you’d have a hard time selling Windows to people if you were honest about it.For just 145€ you get:
- an operating system that assumes you’re an inept idiot
- ads in your application launcher
- a screenshot taken every minute, which gets stored outside your control and analysed by “AI”
- an invasive “assistant” that listens in on your microphone at all times
- forced to create an account to log in to “your” machine, so we can collect even more personal data
Especially when the alternative is free and let’s you do whatever you want with your hardware. And if you happen to misconfigure something you get to be an adult about it and learn from your mistakes.


Not with that attitude.
