You could base your design off my favorite bike accessory, the Airzound bike horn

Buying a modern record on vinyl often comes with a code to download the digital version in a high quality format. Check the item description to see if it's included. You could buy it, download the music, and then sell the record to a local shop or donate it if you can't keep it when you travel.

Alternatively, buy the CD and use a disk drive, if you have access to one, to rip the music into a computer.

Yeah, but it's almost never a VHS camera in the movies, and now often a smartphone video.

POV when using binoculars has two circles, which isn't how it looks when you actually use them. It should be one circle.

Camera footage that's played back in movies as part of the plot always has the recording icon, time code, etc burnt into the footage, which should really only be visible on the camera monitor while recording, not during playback and especially not on another device.

If you like Naked Gun, check out the show Angie Tribeca

Try out Shokz bone conducting headphones. They are awesome, you can hear the world around you, and the app has a vocal booster mode that makes listening to podcasts much better. It works really well on my 1.5 hour bike commute in traffic with road noise, and I can still hear the cars passing by.

You could wear your Apple Vision Pro on the date and use Tinder AI to get live prompts like a modern Cyrano de Bergerac.

I used to live down the street from The Giving Pies when they first opened. They make great pies and the staff were really nice. Sucks to see this news!

An electric gravel or mountain bike would be perfect. You can add bikepacking gear and some have options for extra batteries for longer adventures.

I think it's just not for me. Space operas and the like are too tedious. My preference in writing is for immediacy and action, not tangential explanations of dynastic lineage, lengthy asides on culture, etc.

I've tried so many times to read this and can never get past the first couple chapters. Just doesn't keep my attention.

I'm talking about the actual morality of it, nevermind the sustainability and health difference.

You're likely not being honest if you think you'd feel the same killing a baby a cow as you would cutting the grass.

Plants don't have a brain to process information, they are releasing these chemicals as an innate response. If you've ever spent time around cows or pigs you'd know there's little difference between their ability to feel and think from a dog.
