If you're still undecided at this point, you don't deserve to vote.

Biking is also pretty dependent on the individual and their setup. The elevation changes, distances, sustained speed, and terrain one individual and their equipment can handle can vary drastically with another person. Not to mention someone's tolerance for whatever the weather might be doing at the time while you're completely exposed to the elements on a bike or walking.

It's just them taking a "your results may vary" approach while covering their own ass.

Anecdotally, while driving in Colorado, I put in a destination that I was driving to in bike mode on accident. The destination was like 80 miles away from where I was and involved climbing and descending a mountain pass. Google Maps was very optimistic about how long it would take me to bike there...all without knowing my anything about my health, the kind of bike I have, if I would be able to bike at that elevation, etc. (being Google they probably knew)

My friend, if you rephrase "arguing online" as "debating", you will see your love-life improve dramatically.

Hello, my hobby is arguing online - are we a match?

I don't have any hobbies in the "least attractive", but also not many in the "most attractive" either...and the ones I do - hiking and photography (of the stuff I see while hiking) are not really things my partner is into. Oh well, I guess we make it work.

Bike next to lake Picture from Friday's ride from Buena Vista, CO to Cottonwood Lake and back (25.5mi/2,200ft elevation gain).

Bike on Trail Picture from last night's after-dinner ride on my nearby trails (10.5mi/550ft elevation gain).

The cream/white shape wear is so 2017

Does he own any other outfits? Every picture I see of him for like at least the last 6 months, he's wearing the same suit and tie.

Started walking 10k steps a day after seeing myself in pictures and hating how I looked. I'd been fairly active in the past, but some injuries sidelined me. I found getting out and walking was much better for my mental health and creativity than staring at a screen. Embraced the zen of walking when it was cold or rainy out - I'm lucky to often see animals around me that I know most people near me are never seeing. Now instead of dreading exercise, I have the opposite problem of getting restless and pissy if I don't get my walking or biking in.

Picked up my daughter from her school parking lot years ago and while waiting at the stop sign to turn back onto the road a car goes by with their back tire smoking. I thought it was locked up from braking, but it was punctured and tearing apart. They made no effort to stop or really even slow down much. They continued on and the tire shredded to the point they were driving on the rim. They kept going and onto an even busier major road, which is when I lost track of them as we were turning the other way.

My kid is playing their guitar in their bedroom - I can't make out the song, but it sounds like they're just noodling around at the moment. Dog is panting as we just got back from a walk. Constant whir of the fan.

Is this really a problem for people - not knowing about new game releases? Especially for things you may already be interested in watching outside of a video game? If someone is a fan of sports, racing, etc. it seems they can find new releases in those genres pretty easily already.

The article mentions creating a custom game or in-game items based on the content... Wow, great - more in-game hats. And I bet that generated game is going to be top quality.
