Internal gear hubs typically (always?) can change gears when not pedaling, derailleur gears can't.

For everyday use the unit does not matter at all. We could drop numbers completely and just say it's freezing, cold, chilly, ok, warm and hot and be done with it. For cooking we could just use simmer, boil, stew and bake. But Celsius i

I, as a user, do not need any files in /usr/share/apps. The system might need. And I don't want to deal with those. All other major operating systems (can) work like this; download something > click it > it works.

Any recommendations for music stores which sell mp3's? I ordered Nokia 8110 4G and ditch my smartphone once it arrives. I think it only supports mp3's so I need to start buying albums and not rely on Spotify.

I don't think Jenkins is gui oriented, slow or hard to backup/config, but I did enjoy using TeamCity few yers back. Sure it costs you arm and a leg, but it worked well without any plugins.
