No, if you fall off the rollers, your wheels just stop. Bicycle wheels don’t have anywhere near enough mass for their momentum alone to move your body.
Actually, the gyroscopic effect (specifically precession) has more to do with making the steering go the right way than keeping the bike upright directly.
Gyroscopic effect is not even significant. Lock your steering and you will fall over no matter how fast your wheels are spinning. (Which can happen with a badly pitted headset)
I wouldn’t say easy… But yeah, you don’t just fall over.
It’s not that. Gyroscopic action exists of course, but it’s fairly weak against the weight of your body. Balancing a bicycle is just like balancing an umbrella on your finger, except you can easily move your finger any direction you need. To move the bicycle sideways, you need to already be moving forward.
Tomato, tomato…
If you want to confuse people… I pronounce /etc as “ets”, but one of my coworkers recently called it “slash e t c” and I had to ask him to repeat it a couple times before I figured out what he meant…
Have you ever tried catching flies? Vinegar works better than honey, after all, flies eat shit.
The hell I would…
My ads aren’t targeted, at least I don’t think they are… I honestly don’t notice what they are for most of the time, so that’s a failure right there, they’re not memorable - but when I do notice, they’re for either trump or sports betting, two things which I have negative interest in…
Are they still doing that thing where OEMs pay licenses based on units sold regardless of OS? So even if you want Linux, they still have to pay for windows?
5 was terrible. No redeeming qualities whatsoever.
I did that years ago, and they said basically “never”. Then a couple years later all of a sudden, there it was.
pirated
It’s not pirating if you own a physical copy like DVD or Blu-ray, it’s fair use. Fuck the studios for trying to take that away from us.
Then they’ll make you get a keyboard subscription…
“Stuck with”? I find open source alternatives far less infuriating to work with than anything Microsoft produces.
What’s the Lemmy equivalent of /r/hailcorporate?
Don’t be silly, there are no women on the internet.
