so you weren't chased for 24 hours. fail.

the sidewalk things applies to proper cities where sidewalks are actually used by pedestrians and the road can be used by cyclists. actual streets

there are lots of suburbs where that's not the case - 80km/h traffic on a two lane each way, separated center, grass boulevard between the pavement and the sidewalk etc, and a sidewalk used by nobody because it doesn't connect to anything for over a km.

that's the one time sidewalks are okay to cycle on. and even then, better not be going the wrong way at intersections or going too fast at intersections, nobody expects that

I really don't care that much about protests against fascists.

let me know when real action is being taken

see I just ignore that shit until I actually have a moment, if it were important then they'd have said what it's about

I'm not IT. but I can't imagine being IT would change my response

and given that my job is often 4 hours straight of running from one fire to another, it could be a while until they get a response

90% of the time I put in a ticket, it's just Microsoft being shit

it annoys me too, but I have come up with a few stumpers for our IT company. even once got to sit in on a call of two guys from our IT team and two engineers from the service's team as they tried to figure out what was going on. and there's me not understanding networking at all just laughing my ass off listening to them discuss what might be the problem

if it were simple, I wouldn't have made a ticket, I'd have fixed it myself

last time I started listing what I had already tried, the support agent cut me off to reiterate that I needed to restart the device

yeah, I know. you told me to, I clearly responded "okay, I'll do that now", and then I started giving you the relevant information of what I've already tried. no need to be rude, just giving you info while we wait for the thing we both know will fail

of course they do. that's why I wear two of them - one colour for my pants, and one colour for my shirt

nothing too bright, of course

perfect wording

yeah that's treason...

well isn't that just ironic

this very much sounds like it shouldn't be allowed

it still makes no sense to me that you can get in trouble for glancing at your phone (not actually using it), but new cars come with a whole bunch of distracting touch screen tech
