The only non rechargeable ones are the coin batteries in the shifters, and after over 2 years and more than 30,000km on that bike, I still don't need to think about changing them.

The rechargeable batteries are simple, much simpler than things like my lights or my headphones, watch, phone, every other item that you have to charge constantly, because they last so long. My Garmin also tells me when it is getting low on charge(and that's still enough to comfortably ride for 200km+)

Couple that with how much better and consistent the shifting is, you never have to touch it again, no cable wear or changing the cables, never have to deal with bad shifting, I will never go back to mechanical shifting.

I definitely wouldn't describe it as baby sitting. For me it is every 1000km or so for my SRAM rear derailleur, or about 1500km for my Shimano di2.

So it is around once a month if I am riding that bike.

In terms of reliability, it has been significantly better than cable, never had a a failure with electronic shifting. Have had campagnolo eat my shifter cable twice, leaving me around 80km from home with no rear shifting. And a huge pain in the ass to get all the cable out.

Edit - oh and batteries for the shifters, last year's.

A Skynet funding bill is passed in the United States Congress, and the system goes online on August 4, 1997, removing human decisions from strategic defense. Skynet begins to learn rapidly and eventually becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m., EDT, on August 29, 1997.

Seems pretty terribly designed, if you can't just get up it you can you the lower easier to climb barriers on the right, and step over.

Well... with that attitude now I do. Would be weird, and not sure how that would work... but now I am curious

I mean, I am going to presume he has two legs to stand on.

I think(but it has been a long time since I touched gamepass) there is a timeframe between login checks.

So you might be able to download something, use it for a week, then have to re-authorise again.

But I don't know the time frame, so might be 48 hours or a month.

Game pass isn't going to come to steam deck. Not as a native app that installs games locally. You can already stream games through the web browser that's all you will get.

The fact they are making changes to windows and partnering with Asus on releasing Xbox hardware in the same space is more than enough evidence, but also, the steam deck is a tiny part of the market(it might be the best but it is still tiny).

Linux as a whole is also nothing for Microsoft to worry about, it is slowly increasing in market share, sure. But it is nothing on the scale of windows, and won't be for years at the current growth rate.

Like this?

I think personally I would go with this though

(/s cause it is probably needed)

I am always reminded of this picture when people are "just one more lane". Cause that has always fixed the congestion issues

There are so many images of gridlocked roads full of cars I hope all the replies are no repeated ones
