Lemmy: I don't know, but I wouldn't trust any bike helmet that I can't compile myself from source. It's best to just stay home behind (real) firewalls so the Big Bike doesn't target you for your striped Linux socks.

The moment I got arch running I immediately started hearing about this Gentoo thing but I know for a fact the moment I use Gentoo everyone is gonna start making their own personal Linux distributions using Linux from scratch and then I'm gonna go further down the rabbit hole

Minus Arch, that was almost my exact experience with Linux back in 06. I started with Ubuntu. I let myself get pushed further into more and more customizable and faster distros and further until I was trying to figure out Gentoo. Then I put it down and took up drinking.

Also also, if you decide to still get a helmet, don't get a Chrome helmet.

rshmuck: have you ever actually looked at the helmet source let alone build it?

Commercial bike helmets are a product of capitalism and the radical right wing Democrats are just protecting big business by suggesting to wear a helmet

I think we should defederate from all instances that do not disallow proprietary bikes and/or closed-source locks!

This company lends out bikes for free, but they're Nestlé-level immoral because they put ads on the bike
