Not quite as small but Zenfone 10 is reasonably small by today’s standards and has a headphone jack

We have that in Germany, 25 for regular e-bikes. Anything above requires you to register and insure your bike, you get an actual license plate and you are considered a vehicle not meant to use regular bike lanes.
Lots of manufacturers stop calling that frame shape woman’s bikes, but rather find terms like step through or low step and so on to be better suited. This frame design is a lot more accessible for people who aren’t as mobile anymore (think old people, people with hip problems, heavy people) and are also much easier to handle with tall cargo on the back, typical example would be a child seat.
For the average person, this frame design is probably preferable as there are no benefits to the typical male frame shape.
My parents think it looks odd when a guy sits on one of these, but then my parents are in their sixties :>
The cargo bike boom has brought us some really decent ways to transport small children and stuff by bike, I actually think it’s quite possible to use is you live in a not so small town. There are accessories to weather proof the cargo area, there are Iso-fix mounts for child seats and once the child can sit by itself it’s usually quite a joy for them as well. These bikes are also protecting the child in case of a fall much better than you would think.
However I really do understand that a car is significantly more convenient. I live in rural Germany and there distances can easily amount to 10-15km one way to run errands such as going to the pediatrician. It’s just a bit much, particularly with a toddler. And the car really does become storage for clothes and all that, you can just park it and everything in there is dry and safe, all that makes the car very attractive. Also a decent cargo bike with kids-friendly accessories will run you as much as a cheap small used car, although only the initial cost of course.
The key to bad weather is decent clothes, and children can easily be weather proofed for the most part. My kid is three now and I’ve seriously considered switching over to a bike, but only to replace the second car that I frequently use because my partner will need one to go to work anyways. But running the car cost me around 250€ every month (I keep track of every expense except cleaning) and that is only as long as nothing major breaks. Upkeep of even a large cargo bike is a fraction of that.
Capitalism has you thinking that these are our only options
Notably the homepod mini had thread radios and could act as a thread router as one of the earliest devices out there, might be that apple is going to push harder for this and has plans for it’s own thread enabled Smart Home products.
Obviously the latter
I frequently go to the soccer subreddit in a browser because there’s nothing like it out there, the speed with which people upload highlights, the match threads, the official announcements are all there if you care about high level soccer. It’s the only thing I really couldn’t replace
Ah yes, the ‘Hausarzt’ in German :D thanks for clearing that up!
Serious question because I’ve never heard the term: what is a family medicine doctor?
These must be solid brakes
Yeah I don’t really rewatch movies except maybe to sort of show them to other people. But I have a small child so I know my top movies are Moana and Encanto, just not by choice
I give you an upvote just because you say you don’t rewatch movies often, but then proceed to list your top 12 movies ordered by most rewatched :D Brilliant!
Seriously it has sort of changed the world. I know I’m just handing all my location data to Google but the way it works and the features it offers are amazing and I cannot imagine a world anymore in which I might get lost if I just take a wrong turn somewhere. That combined with the free messaging has made “finding” anything location related a non issue. I can send people a location to meet, I can look up an address someone gave me, I can send my spouse my live location while I’m on my way home to let her know how far I’m out, I can find a hardware store in a town I’ve never been to because I need to tape to fix my bag or whatever, people write helpful comments about where to park or whatever. Maps will suggest different routes for pedestrians, cyclists, drivers or find you a public transportation route if you wish, including (usually) the exact time your train or bus or whatever leaves. It’s fantastic
What would be a better alternative if you exclude the use of fossil fuels?
Burning people! He says what we’re all thinking!
The movie has an interesting story about how so much was cut or couldn’t even be filmed and the editing ended up all over the place, the movie ist barely coherent at times. But the feeling I got just thinking about that place was captivating nonetheless, great movie. Captures the vastness and loneliness of space well imo
The toaster, that’s where it’s at
