this isn't about bikers though, its about cyclists. here they like to ride on dangerous roads with lots of bends (and i get that, its a pretty ride/drive) but if there is ever more than one of them they will not ride single file, which is the law. so i either take a leap of faith and drive on the opposite side of the road, honk, or yell "share the road" and risk getting poo poo thrown at my car/getting a bunch of men in tights trying to catch me at a stoplight :shrug:

idk where youre from but i come from a small town full of the most insufferable, smug cyclists so its probably different where youre at. also i dont wanna argue with you because youre good people.

technically, a motorcycle is a type of bicycle, right? it's got two wheels. like how a square is also a rectangle

it's ok this is a safe space

e: i learned my lesson last time shaggaring about this topic but basically the road will always be better if everyone, regardless of vehicle (including pedestrians), was more considerate/attentive and less aggressive/angry, and let past bad experiences slide a little more, namaste

yesterday on my way home from the gym i got stuck behind this transport truck and i knew he was going to be on most of the way back to my place due to knowing of a highway access a couple clicks from my house

i couldn't get too close because there's still tons of sand/rocks/gravel on the road from winter, but people were piling up behind me as i kept my distance

i wasn't in a big rush so i just took a slightly longer (+30 seconds) way home, no traffic, no stress, and when i rejoined where i was originally headed i could see the transport truck a half-click up, so really not much lost opportunity at all. felt pretty chill and got to enjoy a relaxing commute home

Here is a video of the eruption https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jfzthtb8T0o

Calbuco is considered the 3rd most dangerous active volcano in Chile. A few months ago the Villarrica volcano also had en eruption (cosidered the most dangerous). Now its time for the Llaima volcano to do its thing (2nd on the list). A few years ago we had Chaiten go off as well (4th).

I lived 5 years next to the Villarrica one, also visited Llaima/Calbuco/Osorno, didnt have time for Chaiten (maybe this year). Also, I was in Concepcion when the 8.8 earthquake hit, and next week I am going north where we had an historic flood that hosed up everything (in a place where they dont see rain for years at a time). Its an interesting country to live in.

edit: here is a nice timelapse https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljrDn3Gel4M (skip to 0:55)

it's a shame he's kind of a libertarian dick because he's doing some neat stuff

apparently he's a nightmare to work for because if you aren't putting in 80 hour weeks then you aren't working hard enough

There are a few cases where I would work 80 hrs a week. Like, be in that mode where my work is my life kind of thing. Working with musk would be one of them, yolo lets go to space lol
