Nah, it's FUN ! If there's ice, use studded tires. If there's snow, use a fatbike. And for the cold, simply dress appropriately... or pedal faster !

I commute 25km every day, but there's 1000m of altitude difference. No electric. Even in winter with snow where I use studded tires (Schwalbe Ice Spiker Pro) !

Yeah, but you can purchase open headphones with which to listen to the radio (or music) while you bike. The 'open' part is important as you can still hear your surroundings with those, while you can't with 'closed' headphones and it's dangerous to bike deaf. I recommend the Jabra Sport.

Companies above a certain number of employees are required to have a shower facility for employees.

Plenty of countries have been oppressed by the US, south America comes to mind. And you don't see them strapping bombs to themselves in schools.

In a fucked up place like Pakistan ? Most certainly !!!

'rewards'. Yeah, right...

Exactly

To me beauty is an hindrance and gets in the way. I don't want bouncing icon or transparent windows or hidden menu bars or hidden keyboard shortcuts. It's distracting and make things hard to read. Keep things clear and functional, and yes, I agree with GP, KDE is currently the best for that. For instance [F4] in Dolphin beats any plurely graphical file manager all the way and then some.

Don't you mean:

yeah, GOTO the end and do some cleanup and/or error reporting, which is common to all the gotos. I don't see a problem with that. It's clear, simple and avoid heinous if/else deep nestings.

Oh Yeah ? And during the day, how black is your screen ? Or you actually live in a cave ?

It's simply not possible to listen to music loudly at home. So it's:

• On the mountain bike with bluetooth OPEN earbuds so I can ear what's around. From a phone. Music.
• On the bus with active noise canceling earbuds, wired from a phone. Movies, FM radio.
• At home with small bluetooth speakers from a laptop (movies) or a phone (music).
• In the car with a custom blutooth replacement to the external CD charger of the car radio, so I can have SD memory cards or phone. I wish all car radios came with SD/USB slots, but that's still not the case. And for some cars it's not like you have a choice unless you spend 1600€. We can sleep in the car in the middle of the woods, with a tablet stuck to the ceiling and a horror movie playing on the car speakers. Wicked.

Most linux systems don't have root passwords anymore. Use sudo, don't allow root logins and you are safe from those stupid 'so 1996' kind of attacks.
