No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

It's not a bad idea to deflate them if you go through sudden temperature changes but it's important to remember that tires are porous and will slowly leak air over time so it's less of an issue in that direction... you also don't hear about it as much because people tend to bike more in warm weather so it's more likely for you to go long stretches of time without biking when it's getting colder.
So there are quite a few reasons why the deflation problem gets talked about more.
Off topic, but I think it's funny how cycling is viewed in different parts of the world. You look at it as a hobby that is naturally done less in the winter. For me it's just a way to get to work and I still have to work when it's cold, so obviously I'm still cycling just as much. And this is true for a lot of people, the bike rack at my job is almost as full in the winter as it is in the summer.
Yeah, it's entirely the way the city is design. Biking to work save shit tons of money and time from fuel, traffic jam, and maintenance, and if people are given the choice of doing it safely, a lot will shift into biking.
I don't view it as a hobby but biking in 12 cm of snow with an icy crust isn't realistic. When the snow hits it's the train or bus for me.
