Anytime you pedal with the motor engaged, it will push you forward more than you’ve pedaled. I thought I’d acclimate to it, but I still haven’t; especially when pedaling from a coast out of a turn, I forget the motor is in gear, and when i

It's good but as far as the interface goes there are some oddities due to linguistic weirdness (in my opinion, English not being my first language). For example there are a bunch of vehicle types for which I have to open the profile cu

In total I used anoraks for about 2 decades by now and probably won't anymore, for exactly the reason you mention: none of them were really convenient to get on and off, and if they were sort of convenient then it was because they were

You might like insecam.org as well. Similar principle in the end, but sort of live. And morally a bit harder because it's essentially spying. But for the curious..

It's quite hard to imagine, because those trees could mess up other carbon sequestration cycles already present in oceans. E.g. phytoplankton uses CO2 but need sunlight to do so.

If unmanaged nature does run wild with one or a few species, at some point they overstay their welcome and get rebalanced. The problem being that in the example I made, this balance is still man-made and not really natural. I.e. if you&#x

Depending on where you live those rodents won't do any harm though. Or simply leave again because the cannot find food, which is like the #1 thing to deal with in case of rodents. Moreover you'd need a serious amount of 'dead

I never said anything about behavior, only about accidents and the results thereof. I'd really really rather get hit by a cyclist at any speed than a much heavier vehicle, that's just basic physics. And your examples are just that

Electric cycles reaching 45km/h are regulated in most of EU, no? On the most powerful ones it takes not too much effort to push to 50 (from experience). That being said, where I commute I practically never encounter anyone doing that (

If you leave the cuttings they'll decompose and fertilize the soil, giving advantage to fast growing weeds. Possibly also add nitrogen deposition from surrounding industry/agriculture to that, and you have an ideal cycle for lots

Now erosion is not a concern anymore, hardly anyone does more than disc their fields once a decade. That's a bit of a stretch. Really depends on location and crop type. At least around this local village, lots of hills, it is still a

On the other hand I regularly see people in the street shooting videos, assumingly for TikTok judging by the way they act, in rather plain looking clothes. Which I'm now not sure anymore whether it proves any point or not :P

The other is that for things like cars and furniture there's a resale factor. That's shifting the 'why' question to: why do people care more about resale value now than they did 20 years ago. I'd guess the reason
