@grue@smaland As I'm interested too, the features on the BiNavi appear to be:
* Larger screen +touch.
* Extra GPS frequency. This gives better accuracy particularly when in urban/city areas.
* Rerouting w/o Internet access. Nota big deal unless you want navigation in countries that you don't have mobile data. Rerouting in areas without mobile coverage is less useful, there tends to be less route options in general, so when you miss a turn you just go back to the turn.
* Fancy Di2 control.
@Elting@ClockworkOtter the 'can't reach brakes' positions are fine for uphill grinds. You know where the brakes are more for grabbing so the bike doesn't roll backwards.
@limelight79@Ananasdoener I think there are three primary use cases:
* Commuting (needing to take bike on train, store in cubicle, etc)
* Travel (ease of taking bike on plane/train to destination then riding it there)
* Storage space (ease of getting bike into home (particularly an apartment) and convenience storing it in the home)
And I bet with time many owners tick more than one of those boxes.
@JubilantJaguar@balsoft yeah, hydrogen planes might be needed. But I think there is a good chance that we just aren't going to have a wealth of choices for Australia to america, etc.
The economic option will be more like a 2~3 day journey that only flow where it must and goes most of the way via train. Australia to the US might be via Alaska for most budgets.
@Sgt_choke_n_stroke@HiddenLayer555 Yes, the article says so. But the reasons churches started running them is different to why they are becoming more popular now.
As the article discusses.
I did need reader mode to unbreak the article, but that is webdesign in 2025 for you.
I wouldn't jump into worrying about increasing the rear rotor size. It is unlikely that you'll ever notice the rear overheating, unless doing things to intentionally create it.
@theskyisfalling@limelight79 With the emergency feature sucking, boring live sharing of location would be the next best right? At least then your loved ones know where you are when you don't return.
@limelight79@Showroom7561 Yeah: 'I looked and they weren't there, therefore the only possible way I could have hit them is if they did this weird and implausible manoeuvre'
People will invent stories to tell themselves to feel good. They then will tell everyone else the story like it is fact.
People make for terrible evidence.
Log data with a computer. It is much harder to trick yourself this way.

@mech @ClockworkOtter I find the flats to be the most upright. Palms on hoods is for upright, but able to brake.
Edit: to be clear this is "bodies and geometry are weird" not "your doing it wrong"

@Trail recently my sv08 was similar. Cleaning the nozzle and calibrating extrusion fixed mine
@limelight79 must be nice.
And so wasteful.

@madnificent @mettwurstkaninchen How fragile the belts are shocked me.
@JubilantJaguar @balsoft as long as a north pole hub for trains across antartica always remains impractical everything will be fine....

@Zagorath @hemko yeah, but is weight really a useful place to see inovation?
@prex @lowside hey, they barely make the sedans that were the base for utes any more
@Sgt_choke_n_stroke no.

@garbagebagel @Showroom7561 Scooters are just much less dependent on a good sizing fit.
@Etnaphele Oh, and very nice photos!
@Etnaphele Nice.

@CameronDev @Zachariah It is also conceptually the same thing happening :)

@thenewoil@mastodon.thenewoil.org EFF beign surprisingly optimistic:
"The data-sharing won’t necessarily be limited to the U.S., either. There’s nothing to stop authoritarian states from demanding this new trove"
Apparently the US isn't an authoritarian state.....
