"...Trump’s team will spend the next three years trying to pin the blame on anyone but themselves."

and yet, Americans that can think no further than their county limits will steadfastly stand by their incompetent President...

I have a pair of jeans with knee and hip pads. While I believe the stretch denim material helps keeping the pads in place, it also cuts off blood circulation on longer rides (around the knees). Got some cargo pants with protectionnow, which are wider and more comfortable. I don’t commute though, but want to to feel comfortable while having a coffee or lunch break during a ride…

Well, it’s about time…

Cheers - that‘s true. It is somehow like swimming: the skill never goes away completly, but I noticed already that it can give a feeling of false security …

 

After a long biker career (1986 - 2000) and a long pause I started again after moving to the Canary Islands.

First with a Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 in 2021, now this BMW R nineT Scrambler, which I took for a ride along the coastal roads.

The RE is an excellent bike for the money, but the BMW (weighting roughly the same) is some real joy to ride in this environment.

Thanks a lot! That is very helpful. I was lost in reading up the details of configuration without understanding of a general concept.

Let’s hope you’re right. However I think there is a larger scheme going on involving the big tech guys around Peter Thiel pulling the strings … and it’s obvious Vance is a puppet they put on the field.

The worst is yet to come if they manage to put Vance in power instead of the orange guy…

Sorry for that noob question: i do not grasp the idea of vlan fully: will i still be able to connect to devices in the locked down vlan (the tv, the printer) from the devices in the “normal”, open Wifi (like my phone streaming to said tv).

Right now i have a gl-iNet router (brume 2) that uses adguard to block advertising sites (and also home phoning destinations of popular brands), but not sure if that does the trick already.

This. I literally only started to use WhatsApp and FaceBook when i moved to Spain, because otherwise it’s impossible to find, evaluate and contact any business here. Need a craftsman? Reserve a table in a restaurant? -> whatsapp

Here, people have not the slightest conscientiousness about data protection policies

That’s interesting - I have a C1 (2021). Where or how do you block these updates and have it connected to your local network?
