Hell yeah! Bikes and happy kids are a great combination.

Also, front mounted toddler seats ftw. I loved our iBert when our kids were that size.

That hits the nail on the head.

I’m at a point in life where money isn’t the issue. The bottlenecks are always time and energy. Someday I’ll have time to focus on music (and skiing, and backpacking, and drawing, and …).

I have a tangent related to 90’s social skills: I wish I had attended university before the high-speed internet era. We collectively replaced so much face-to-face interaction with stupid Flash games and scrolling ebaumsworld.

I would trade my accumulated engineering training and skills in order to be a great musician. I’m done with office work, staring at a screen all day, and coming home mentally exhausted. I want to be able to go to a jam session and shred with the best.

InDesign is on subscription licenses like the rest of Adobe’s products, unfortunately.

My wife does book layouts and miscellaneous graphic design work, and she’s been using Adobe tools for so long it’s like muscle memory. Using anything else that’s slightly different is akin to someone rearrange your kitchen while you are away. The tools you need are still there, but now you have to go hunting for every little thing.

For various reasons, my family is tied to a small number of programs that don’t have 1:1 equivalents on Linux. So far nobody is willing to deal with the inconvenience of switching to alternatives. I’m trying my best to convert them, though.

If GIMP and Inkscape looked and felt closer to Photoshop and Illustrator, that would help greatly. Also, if I could find a good alternative to InDesign that wasn’t tied to a cloud service or a subscription license.

Don’t tell the British. They might get ideas of their own.

Walk under the edge of an awning or roof, where the runoff is coming down.

So close, yet so far away.

115 is an odd fork width. I think you mean the fork is spec’d to fit a 15x110mm “Boost” hub? And the hub on your front wheel is 15x100mm.

If that’s the case, you can definitely adapt the hub to fit the fork. You need two axle spacers, a 15x110mm axle, and a spacer to shift the brake disc into the correct position. Problem Solvers actually sells the spacers in a kit…

The real question is: where tf did you get a free Flight Attendant fork?!

Edit: if you really want to go down the rabbit hole and design your own spacers, SRAM publishes everything you need in their frame fit specifications:

For US Forest Service land, the USFS has an interactive online map that includes campgrounds. Though be aware that many of these are minimalist spots: no reservations, no running water or electricity, just a flat place to pitch a tent and a communal vault toilet.

Even when I have tried to put myself in a creationist’s shoes, creationism never made sense to me. Why limit God’s creative scope to a one-and-done event? Certainly it’s conceivable that He might produce complex, dynamic systems that are difficult for us to model, let alone understand. And He might have made design decisions for reasons that are not obvious to our limited intellects. I feel like a religious person would be doing honor to their God by doing science, exploring and learning, and taking the time to be awestruck at the things they discover.
