threaten fines of at least £18m for sites that fail to comply with the laws

cor, that's punchy

Still kind of in denial about this, terrible news.
Even as mainly a lurker, this forum has brought me daily happiness for so many years.
Thanks so much @Velocio.

Shocking and so sad. Like many others, I read through this thread in chunks and always found it interesting and inspiring.

Same with me. I can't really smell flowers now. Oh well.

Luckily it hasn't noticeably impacted my sense of taste.

I've tried quite a lot of things short of changing to a dumb phone but I always just end up working around them eventually (eg deleting apps so I use the web version, deleting things from the home screen so I just go to the app library, instinctively dismissing the screen time lock etc).

My screen time isn't thaaat bad (1.5-2hrs per day) and I only really use whatsapp and the web browser, but I'd still like it to be less.

TBH by far the best thing I've found is having a book that I'm in to to hand which I can pick up instead of my phone during those times where you have a few minutes to spare. During those times it goes down to less than an hour today, which is pretty much all Whatsapp, which I don't consider problematic.

That's really cool. I think I spend 90% of my phone time reading text though, so probably wouldn't help with the addiction much.

Wonder how much import fees would be.

It's like a normal bike, but in Bold.

Happy to post

Don't think I'll be able to do many this year but did a bit of JS golf with the first day

code

``` let g=n=>document.body.textContent.trim().split('\n').map(i=>+i.split(' ')[n]).sort() g(0).map((i,x)=>Math.abs(i-g(1)[x])).reduce((a,i)=>a+i,0) let g=n=>document.body.textContent.trim().split('\n').map(i=>+i.split(' ')[n]) g(0).reduce((a,i)=>(g(1).filter(j=>j==i).length*i)+a,0) ```

Not a fan of illegal e bikes obviously but man, bet that's a lot of people's livelihoods on the back of that truck.

Had this as a bit of a back burner project for ages and finally got round to building it up recently, before losing the will when the rear tyre didn't quite fit. I don't really need it, so seeing if anyone else fancies this as a complete bike but one that needs finishing (and a new rear tyre).

It's a 54cm Cannondale Optimo - great for a commuter/beater due to the clearances and mudguard/rack mounts. Cantis/V brakes to make it less stealable. Sadly I couldn't squeeze a 700X 38c (40-622) in safely but would work with something a bit smaller. Fine at the front.

Spec:

• Cannondale Optimo with carbon Slice fork (obligatory 'I believe one of the last to be handmade in the USA' comment)
  
• Praxis Alba 1x crankset (inc new Praxis BB)
  
• Mavic Aksium wheels
  
• Fizik Cyrano R3 bars
  
• Vittoria Terreno Dry tyres (new)
  
• 105 5800 shifters
  
• 105 R7000 rear mech (not pictured)
  
  

Will also provide an 11s chain.

The bad:

• Chain and brake pads are worn and need replacing
  
• Rear tyre does not fit without rubbing - will need to be replaced
  
• Needs cabling
  
• Cassette is a bit undergeared (11-28t) unless you're coming from the world of SS or are well 'ard
  
• Overall condition is a bit beaterish, most components are fairly worn cosmetically and there is some damage to the paint around the fork which has been painted over.

Collection from Beckenham BR2, can't be ridden away. Can possibly deliver if local.

This is great - I arrived at a very similar (although much more beaterish) form for my kid carrier.

The shotgun and swept bars work so well.

Went to Blanchette last night, food was great and nice cosy vibes.

Strider says 18m - 5 years - I'd say by 4/5 they'll need something bigger, but that's the rough range.

Nice- is it a Pompetamine, or did you have the rear disc tab added?
