Comment Re:Legal/illegal bikes (Score 2) 146

Don't see too many cars on walking paths and sidewalks. The number of e-bikes on walking paths and sidewalks has skyrocketed. It's almost as if someone decided being a pedestrian is a sinful activity, and that every walkway must now be infested with morons on wheels.

Then let me get started on mobility scooters.

I'd just like them banned from walking paths. At least once a day I'm getting some crazy asshole ringing his bell as he comes flying up behind me. I'm not a fan of any kind of bike on walking paths, but at least the people on regular bikes have more control. The worst are probably older riders who often seem like they're barely in control. And the three wheeled ones take up outrageous amounts of space on smaller paths, regularly forcing other users on some of the narrower paths I frequent to get to the side of the road.

It's hard to imagine, short of motor vehicles, anything more hazardous to a pedestrian than some stupid prick on an e-bike.

I have a Canon 6D, which I love. Connecting to Wi-Fi is cumbersome and completely non-intuitive. It's hard to image that this was developed by and for humans. But once you figure it out, Canon Connect allows you to control the camera completely by phone or laptop. This is great, as it permits all sorts of functions, none of which you could control via a Wi-Fi SD card.

Nice failure to understand you have there. As it is about building or not building understanding, that is pretty ironic. You nicely demonstrated why _you_ are getting dumber using AI. And here is a hint (although I expect this will be flying right over your head): Information, like tables, you can carry around with you, learning them by heart is pretty worthless. Insight you cannot substitute with a book or a somewhat better search mechanism like an LLM. Insight you either have or you do not.

Learning tables is learning patterns. Are you really saying that learning patterns does not extend your knowledge?
