Is this something only people with ADHD suffer from?

I'm approaching 45 and my memory has always been like this. For things I am interested in I'm all ears but for anything I'm finding boring I really struggle to concentrate and take it in.

FYI I don't have ADHD (at least it's something I've never considered myself to have).

They said the AI stuff is all done on device so nothing is being sent back to Google

The person I know is aging but is an avid cyclist. Sadly they are no longer able bodied to ride a normal bike and keep up with the majority of the other riders they ride with. Having that assistance allows him to get out on the bike. Without it he would no longer be riding a bike.

My dad also got an ebike MTB because riding a normal bike just isn't an option anymore. He's approaching 77.

I live in a hilly area and often see older people out on their bikes in the summer. They all use ebikes.

Yes you can. On an ebike the engine just stops providing assistance above 25kph. In the EU that is. It's more in north America

I'm talking about a typical enthusiast road cyclist rather than the average Joe out on their bike or commuting to work on bike paths. I whole heartedly agree that on bike paths and inner city commuting that we don't need people zipping around busy streets.

The people I know, who ride socially but on road bikes, have modified their ebike to allow them to go faster as on flat roads they simply cannot keep up with the rest of the group. Obviously it's completely the opposite way round as soon as there is elevation involved.

25kph is too slow for road ebikes. I wish they would allow these to at least be 32kph/20mph.

It seems the answer is yes.

This is correct

I purchased the PS5 cause the library of games on the PS4 was amazing. Worst purchase I've made in a long time. There's been a real lack of games. The best game is Astro's Playground and that comes free!

But he's not using it in a domain environment.

Sticking with duck duck go. Not seeing advertising, news or video recommendations based on a one time search in Google is bliss.
