Your take is however literally madness. It would be like you protesting on here that somone trying to get people medicine to survive if they raced across town disrupting traffic and you supported them being jailed.
I hope they can keep it up. The stupid attached to people not understating the impacts of climate change is appalling and will collapse civilisation. That’s literally what XR, JSO etal want to try and do, prevent the collapse of civilisation and raise awareness of that so we do something. And people be like “my Uber Eats driver delivered me a cold buger, jail those protestors for life!!!?”
I get you’re not brave enough to do this yourself but you’d think you’d at least support those who are!
“Susan Sontag was asked what she had learned from the Holocaust, and she said that 10% of any population is cruel, no matter what, and that 10% is merciful, no matter what, and that the remaining 80% could be moved in either direction” —Kurt Vonnegut
Enterly reasonable but assuming it’s true matters little anyway. It’s confirmation bias for those who want nothing to do with the GOP and the GOP won’t believe it anyway, no matter the evidence (like climate change etc).
If it’s is false it won’t matter, if its true it won’t matter.
I dd it the other way around.
Switched to Linux (LDME about 12 months ago) and the things I couldn’t do I didn’t bother with. I have so many things that interest me I just spend more time on them and found some new stuff.
I was dual booting a few years back because I had a bunch of stuff I couldn’t do in Linux and said fcuk it this time. In retrospect I wish I had adopted that philosophy earlier.
That won’t work in Australia. You can buy the SIM anywhere of course, you just can’t activate it. You’ll need proof of ID on line to do that… There are only three operators (the rest are resellers). I am sure there are ways around it but not the one you suggest.
When I was last in NZ you didn’t need ID must buy a SIM and good to go, not sjre thats still the case though?
I’ve helped a five or six folk over two decades who have thought the same as you. Donated a tube and used my pump to infate and get them on their way.
That said if it’s worked for 10 years why bother now? The only point to make is if it does happen that you get a flat, what will you do? Ring your partnter and get a lift, or use an Uber (?) fair enough. Walk with the bike for 20k in the dark to get home ? Maybe an idea to have a spare and a pump?

If Ukraine OK with it, what’s the problem, it’s over Ukraine airspace after all.
