I'm honestly shocked this hasn't happened already. How can a world class museum not have a centralised inventory of all its items?

Well I certainly wouldn't want to change my pupils without their consent, that's for sure!

The bicycle industry really needs to settle on a singe bottom bracket standard. It's not like there's a significant difference in performance from the million different variations. An industry-standard rear derailleur hanger would also save a lot of headaches where people try to hunt down a replacement for a frame that's been out of production for years.

This has always been the case in the UK and I hate it. My city actually planned on banning it on two of the busiest roads in the city (because obviously people constantly pulling in and out of traffic will always make it worse), but the drivers protested and now the plan is scrapped.

Fun fact, most car advertising uses a computer generated car. Photoreal cars bave been achievable for years now and it just makes sense for them to do it as they can keep it looking flawless throughout the ad. There's even a "mocap" car with an adjustable body to match the length/width etc. of the car it's supposed to be that they can just pin the model to.

Throwing some guesstimated numbers into SILCA's tyre pressure calculator, it seems you should be running them somewhere around 27/28 PSI. 3 PSI seems dangerously low.

I know we're dealing with human aliens, but there is actually a thing called takotsubo cardiomyopathy, also known as "broken heart syndrome", where your heart weakens as a result of emotional trauma.

It is rarely fatal, but deaths have occurred as a result of it.

You need headphones with multipoint functionality. If your current pair can't connect to multiple sources at once already then you may need to buy new ones that can.
