I think the “why” behind a lot of these is “being a monk is really boring”.

They’re just going to whip out an angle grinder and be done with it. I’m not really in the market for $350 locks either, but it’s nice that there are new advancements in lock technology and this seems like it’d be worth it for someone with an expensive ebike.

I dunno, I’m surprised console launches are still this bad though. Aren’t AWS and Azure supposed to give, like, near-infinite scalability? It’s not like anyone should be surprised by the demand.

Cid Vicious@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•Under feathered swansEnglish66·5 days agoThis is a little bit unfair to paleoartists. A lot of the drawings people are most familiar with came from a time when there was less evidence for feathers. They absolutely update drawings as more fossils are found that change the picture, but we don’t always go and look at the newest art. Just how much feather cover specific dinosaurs would have had is still a bit unknown but it’s unlikely they would have had anywhere near as much feather cover as modern birds.
