   Is it just me who thinks it would be relatively easy to notice someone intentionally following you at the same pace and distance on a given walking route through your home city? Stop to look at the flowers a few times and notice that they a

   The comments here feel weird now, after changing the target link of the post to an article not focusing on the song, when the majority of the top level comments are about the song. The new link barely mentions the song twice.

   Extended Stay America locations have a "fully equipped kitchen" in every room so it's certainly possible and already happening.

   The US mortgage delinquency rate was 2.13% in Q1 2022 ( https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/DRSFRMACBS ). It was 4% in 2016, 3% in 2018. Why should an observer/investor be worried that "Non-performing loans [

   You can ride a bicycle that is locked out from steering at all. (You can ride one-footed on anti-rocker (2 wheel) inline skates, with some practice).

   If this were the case, you wouldn't be able to turn while riding with no hands. Yet reality has us out here riding bikes with no hands making turns. https://youtu.be/_SWdCutqSWQ?t=73

   Looks to me like 1. The bike is initially rolling straight with no handlebar angle, and then starts falling over to the left. 2. Due to the mechanic explained in the video, this causes the handlebar to turn left. If there was a human on tha

   Now just imagine the possibilities with a rider on the bike. Being able to dynamically shift weight to either the left or right side of the bike at will! You can even do turns while riding with no hands .

    Have you tried leaning to the left while biking in a straight line? It results in you turning left without your front wheel ever having gone to the right (i.e., turning without countersteer).

    Indeed. I like this clip where they show bike steering to the left, without its front wheel ever going to the right side of its original path, by only leaning and no countersteering. https://youtu.be/9cNmUNHSBac?t=445

    The author lost all credibility when he said I have to countersteer to turn my bike. The author is a "professional engineer and consultant, specializing in feedback systems and motors" too. There are >50 million cyclists in the

    I made it to the 4th paragraphs before realizing, no, they weren't talking about shipping water bottles. Their logo is even water bottles.

    What's heartbreakingly tragic about this? Your statements reads as if a county having a high percentage of African American residents is negative.

    I read another techno-dystopian rambling within the last 24 hours that this text strongly reminds me of. It even has spelling mistakes too (stratergy). "i swear its always the days where i cannot help but fall asleep during the day, wh

    So this has no interaction with the cube itself? It's just a stopwatch app that you press the spacebar to stop, and everyone trusts that you didn't cheat? It doesn't have a programmable hardware LED cube that the app dynamica

    I think you're missing the point, it's freely downloadable as a standalone windows/mac executable and that's the entire product. There's no physical product.

    Nobody tell this guy about the dissonant metallic scraping sounds in modern dubstep or he'll have to totally recalibrate his jangle meter.
