If someone has to ask the question, just recommend Ubuntu or Mint.

The whole scene it sets, the mood, it's all just so human.

Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness

But it's better than drinking alone

No complaints. Just $3 to cross on a bike, and it comes every ~15 minutes.

You can use this tool. I use it to keep my lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works accounts in sync

Because people use their computers for more than just gaming, and there are a lot of Macs out there. I have Steam installed on my MacBook, and I can't remember the last time I played a game on it.

Hit a bump on my road bike, now it's creaking pretty badly. Video included. (lemmy.world)
 

2023 Felt VR 60.

I hit a bump while riding and now the front of my bike creaks. If I apply pressure on my handlebars, I can even hear it without riding. It sounds like the noise is coming from between the handlebars, so I'm thinking maybe it's the headset? But I'm not sure.

Here's a video of the sound: https://youtube.com/watch?v=7mbQVzI_Jj4?feature=share

Two months with my bike, training for a metric century by the end of the season. This is my longest ride so far! (lemmy.world)

Cycling noob here - help me understand tires and wheels so I can swap mine around (lemmy.world)
 

I recently got my first road/endurance bike, a Felt VR60. According to the specs, the wheels it came with are: Devox WheelRDS.A3, Tubeless ready, 6-hole, 12x100/12x142 mm. Default tires it came with are Vittoria Zaffira V tires.

I'm thinking of doing some light gravel riding with this bike, so was considering some 30mm tires to swap between depending on the activity I want to do. However, I have no idea what I should be looking for when it comes to buying new tires/tubes.

  1. What factors do I need to worry about when buying new tires? I assume the wheel size matters, right?

  2. Can I reuse my existing tubes, or do I need new ones?

  3. Searching for 30mm gravel tires, I mostly found tubeless options. Is there a reason for that?

  4. Anything else I should know before buying and swapping tires?

Any help is greatly appreciated here :)
