So it's not a blanket "same with motorcycles" either then ;)

It's out in the wild, too late Sony!

If we were on Reddit, OP's inbox would get flooded with messages, but Lemmy isn't active enough for that...

People always get mad when I check their post history to point out the hypocrisies when we debate about something, it will never not be funny! It's usually people saying "Eat the rich" one day and defending a billionaire they like in another conversation...

I don't think so because the 14" and 15" wheels for the same car should have a different second number to their tire measurement to compensate, the manufacturer wouldn't recommend installing tires that will make your speedo different depending on your wheel size.

First number is width

Second number is height of the sidewall as a % of the width

Third number is wheel size

So for example my summer tires are 255/45R20, my winter tires are 255/55R18, increasing the sidewalk height from 45% to 55% of the 255mm width compensates for the wheels being 2" smaller

That's why it's not a thing and OP is wrong.

Eh, for the motorcycle bit... No...

On my TW200 (pretty much unchanged since 1987) the speed is based on front tire rotations (there's a speedometer cable with a part that literally spins inside going from the front wheel to the speedo), on my modern motorcycles it's based on the ABS ring/brake disc.

When looking at what you see in the cluster, changing the sprocket just influences how much the engine is revving when comparing two different speeds, otherwise it's about acceleration and top speed.

She pushed for his pardon

She now says she won't do it anymore, that she agrees he broke the law (need to have broken the law to get a pardon) BUT that she still believes what he did was right, implying that he deserves a pardon, she just won't be the one trying to make it happen anymore.

Requiring training and a license to own a gun? That would go to court as being unconstitutional.

"surely he'd exempt X from..."

Exact same reflection as all the people who depend on migrant workers that voted for him only for the bubble to burst in their face.

I can try making a cake, if I stop trying before I manage to make one, it doesn't mean I will complain if my girlfriend decides to make one instead of me!

Oh don't worry, it's on the table, funny that this shit is happening not long after Quebec started exporting electricity to the US only to realize they should have kept that capacity for themselves because demand is only increasing... The problem might just solve itself!

Just going over the various recent posts, most of them are from brand new accounts that then get deleted. Many of them are from people saying they're from foreign countries yet the OP speaks perfect English. In one case I mentioned that the username was the same as a Reddit/Instagram user...

Hell, the most recent one (Kazak person that was kidnapped)? They were taught Kazak and English by their kidnapper? Kazak and Russian sure, but English? I call bullshit.

More details added (no cause of death at this time):

The prison service in the Yamalo-Nenets district said he had "felt unwell" after a walk on Friday.

He had "almost immediately lost consciousness", it said in a statement, adding that an emergency medical team had immediately been called and tried to resuscitate him but without success.

(On Windows anyway, don't know if different on Linux)

Just wanted to share that as a user of both Firefox and Chrome, it's one thing that makes me hate switching to Firefox. I often need to use two different profiles and the way Firefox does it sucks.

With Chrome I've got two shortcuts (that Chrome creates by activating an option) pinned to my taskbar that look distinct from one another and the instances that I open are combined under their respective profile shortcuts.

With Firefox I need to manually create two shortcuts, assign two distinct icons to differentiate them, change some properties so they open the right profile, pin them and because they're "regular shortcuts" instead of the default Firefox launcher shortcut, when I open the program I end up with a third Firefox icon in my taskbar (it does not open under the shortcut I used, it acts as if I clicked a shortcut on my desktop) where all instances get merged together no matter which profile they're associated with.

 

FiskFisk23 and my comment are both replies to Botree's comment, it gets even more confusing when tapping Show context a second or third time.
