I am pretty okay with the consumer goods from xiaomi I've used, what do you think about their electric scooter in terms of build quality, range all that?
which model did you get for the solid tires? is it called the mi?
yea, zero maintenance is really what I'm looking for, The key issue in my mind, i don't want to think about having to replace a tire because it's a pebble is in the way that I can't steer around.
thanks, the 9bot was the other one I was looking at besides the hiboy.
gpt it, thanks.
I've used solid tires on bicycles before and had a bit of trouble getting them on, but I imagine something as compact as a scooter tire would be another level more difficult
getting hit by a car once and surviving is pretty good!
yeah, if I get an electric scooter I'm going to want to ride it all the time everywhere, and don't want to bother with or think about flat tires.
what kind of range did you get from the s2 pro on a full charge?
cool, TV should do that fine.
Jigo beat me to it.
turned out bad for him.
I was going to link a clip, but apparently it's lost in the ether.
the jesus one? or the zika virus one?
I haven't seen either, but there were two TV shows called The chosen in 2019.
If you get the head, it grants immortality.
I heard it from a monk.
I should have stuck with the original open letter from eight credible ecomputer scientists and election officials, the court-documented testimony, confessions from Trump lawyers and video footage rather than including the article featuring the other scientist that scares everybody.
this is the credibly sourced open letter to Hatris I read first, from eight computer security experts and election officials coming to the same actionable conclusion without extrapolating any numbers:

it looks like mom's fried rice is a separate dish that has more ingredients, you can add mushrooms and meat and a bunch of vegetables, but the recipes for this "kids" mom's fried rice only have egg, rice and cabbage, plus sauce:

a speck of evidence for homemade laotian whiskey being popular?
there are hundreds of homemade bottles at every market.
each market seller or restaurant that has whiskey offers their own homemade laotian whiskey as well.
I'm not from Laos, but I lived there for a while.
Yikes, I only remembered one scene from this book, and somehow managed to forget
Title
The Atlanteans slicing open living humans and aliens to harvest their organs in the blood and sowing them back up into mummies.
Pretty hardcore.
And there's some cute Tobias Rachel back and forth.
Man, I wanna morph an orca.
Tons of good quotes in this one.
I like that inside cover too, how they can't actually show the guy
even though of course it's described in great detail in the book.spoiler
strangling a dog,
Ax is so funny as a human. When he finds out that Marco's dad is dating, and ax's been getting used to TV, he says <Ah. Perhaps your father is Young and Restless. Those who are Young and Restless frequently change mates.>
Love it.
You know what else is interesting, that both sides in this war look like humans, they look like anybody else, even though both sides can turn into murderers at the drop of a hat. Sure. The aliens look like humans, but the child soldiers who change into animals all the time and kill people also look harmless most of the time.
And Jake has a great line about how they're all different and they have to deal with their trauma in their own way.
And also Jake said I love you to Cassie! Wooo!
Marco has this great quote:
"Self-pity is the easiest thing in the world. Finding the humor, the irony, the slight justification for a skewed, skeptical optimism, that's tough."
I am definitely an unlikely optimist, I wonder if this book had any part to play in that particular personality development.
A great book for Cassie, although her books are always the most difficult because so many of her choices are to go against her nature as a pacifist and make some kind of sacrifice for the greater good. Like literally letting two different aliens control her in different books.
We get to read some impressive morphing showcases here and this inside cover is great.
The gang has a great plan to disrupt a dangerous new weapon and the plan mostly works until
spoiler
Tobias is brutally tortured to the brink of death by a sadist voluntary controller.
He and Rachel finally kiss at the end after she saves him and doesn't kill the sadist much to my disappointment. Tobias convinces Rachel that killing his torturer would make them as bad as the torturer, and I do not agree.
Weird skin tones in that double andalite drawing. And a segmented rattlesnake tail, which I don't think we've seen before either and the tail has never been described looking like.
Mean Rachel and nice Rachel! Marco can date nice Rachel and mean Rachel can break his arm!
It's a win-win.
I'm with you, I've actually changed scooter tires before and have zero desire to have that weighing on my mind while I'm having fun scooting around.
