all Tinder cares about is keeping you swiping, with your eyes on the screen.

The best method is to go out and buy 4 different stems and try them. Honesty.

Bike fits are a scam. Trial and error for your own body and own needs only way to figure this out.

You also need to consider changing your bar width if you alter your stem length/height more than 20cm.

For starters, flip your step up, if it's down. Also, is your bike the correct size frame, and/or is it a racing frame or an endurance frame? Trying to make an aggresive racing frame into a casual endurance bike is not really going to work great.

All my suspended reddit logins are suddenly active again. I was banned for 'inciting violence' by some anti-outdoor cat nazis when I posted a picture of my cat with a rabbit it caught. This was over 3 years ago.

I'm going through removing all my content. F reddit. Scumbags suddenly unbanned my decade of content so they can train AI on it to enrich themselves.

people who have that attitude tell on themselves. as in, they expect others to act like awful shitty people because deep down they know that is how they would act.

Before that it was 'big data'. remember that?

every 5 or so years the media needs some new tech to hype up to get people paranoid

Exactly. It will lead to improved automation for industrial processes but it won't ever be a consumer tech other than improving your siri results.

It won't replace jobs, anymore than industrial robots in factories replace them.

'big data' 'crypto' etc.

AI is just the next 'big thing' that amounts to nothing. 90% of what anyone says in the press/media is total nonsense. And most AI researchers are downplaying the hype because they know it's all bullshit and AI will ultimately not be a major change anymore than navigation systems in cars was. It is merely convenience and those that 'rely' on it will end up in trouble.

It's a complementary technology, not a revolution.

there is a shortage of jobs because wages are still historically low.

funny thing is companies that pay higher wages don't have trouble hiring people.

my company pre pandemic had 5+ employees turn over every month. post pandemic we have like 1 a month or less. why? our wages went up 40% across the board from 2020-2023. our starting wage used to be 35K in 2019. that's barely livable in in my city. now it's closer to 50K. benefits have also increased substantially, but we did drop the commuting benefits because we are hybrid.

turns out people will work for you if you pay them a fair wage and offer them opportunity to increase their wages.

the majority of usa populace. most folks in America believe in a just world where those who are good are rich and should be rewarded and those who are bad are poor and should be punished.

hence why when a billionaire breaks the laws nobody cares, but when a poor person steals food they should be locked up.

they also believe in zero-sum thinking, where if anyone gets anything it came at the expense of someone else. they have no concept of how economics and life actually works. just consumed by jealousy and bitterness and assuming if others didn't 'take' from them they would have more.

ignorance and paranoia about radioactivity go hand in hand.

i know so many otherwise smart people who lose it on this issue. because they just think any radioactivity = destroy planet forever . completely ignorant to how it actually works, and just think every power plant must eventually chernobyl and that one barrel of nuclear waste is enough to destroy 1000s of miles or something equally absurd.

totally sad.

isn't his shtick to generally offensive?
