Probably my childhood home that I grew up in.

Nah, just toss a couple more trash cans under it and you’ll be fine! Don’t worry about fancy stuff like actually fixing it.

It’s layers of protection: Brilliant!

What? It’s fine, there’s a drain in the floor!

That is some impressive fuckuppery!

I drank once when I was 17 but didn’t really care for it (rootbeer and vodka, not great, not terrible).

Fair point, even with guns there’s spall that can get you if the bullets hit something hard, but the fact that we don’t use this kind of design kinda highlights that it’s not worth the trade off of visibility vs protection.

Good luck taking a round to the head even with this thing on.

A Debian based distro is probably your best bet (Mint is my favorite, but there’s a few options including Ubuntu and of course Debian itself).

Hasselback^2

I’m struggling to decide between hasselback, mashed, potato cakes, and scalloped.

To make matters worse, I have discovered the existence of bloomin potatoes and pommes anna.

I was going to say hasselback but now I might change my answer.

Just what nobody wanted!

I’m not saying it would be practical in your case, but you could definitely carry 6 weeks of groceries on a cargo bike (electric would be better given the load though).

Hell, you might even be able to do that on a regular bike. I can fit at least 60 liters of groceries into my Portola (a compact folding e-bike), and that isn’t even including the top rear cargo rack. In an actual mid-sized cargo bike, you could probably fit like 2+ months of groceries.

If you don’t have a safe path to get there though, it doesn’t really matter how much you can fit onto any bike. In your case, you’d need a motorcycle.

4 miles is nothing on a bike, 30 isn’t too crazy either. I think people misunderstand just how far you can travel on a bicycle. Having the infrastructure to do it is another matter though, there’s some super dangerous country roads where it’s 50+mph with no shoulders.

Lots of weight and heart disease I bet.

On a related note, I rode my bike to work today and it was great.

While I’m here, I guess I should plug !micromobility@lemmy.world

Gross.

I heard about this but remain deeply skeptical about whether it would actually work: Most of the shit people claim “AI” can do seems to be bullshit.
