Wintergreen Ascent TT disallows cyclists going down at all. I've been down some mountains going faster than I should have, but Wintergreen is one where if you make a minor mistake you could easily end up in mortal danger (at least that

There is a ski resort nearby called Wintergreen and a cycling time trial up the road to the top every year. I was not aware of it until I got into cycling for a bit about 10 years ago. The road averages 7.7% grade and has switchbacks that a

The return to location animation helps here. Drag one animal and the one underneath is available to drag. Probably not very accessible but actually a fun, possibly unintentional, mechanic. Can also drag to see location icon underneath.

I think some of it is surround sound that modern streaming and televisions use without actual surround sound speakers. I've found if a movie/show is in surround sound, changing audio to non-surround sound helps a lot.

TIL, but strange choice. On a related topic, anyone have an idea of the breakdown of people that say Sequel vs S.Q.L. and are there people that look down on others for their usage? Of course ignoring the opinion of anyone that says Jif.

I've seen documentaries about Woodstocks and the difference is the market catered to. It went from a fairly chill group of acts and attendees at a venue that was not prepared to aggressive acts catering to young white males resulting i

What are you going on about? He gave perfectly reasonable advice that many consider a best practice. Hacker News is not the place to act personally attacked and offended over such simple shit.

Was a confusing way to describe it. I meant road cyclists on surrounding flat and mountain roads. Probably a moot question now given advances in technology making everything lighter and smaller.

In my area they swapped high school and middle school times to help HS teens. My 7th grader got up at 5:45am to get ready and catch bus at 6:45am.
