If they can be hidden, like in Windows, I dont really mind if every app has one. I’ll hide the ones I dont care about.

The app dock isnt visible by default, so thats a partitial solution, but I’d prefer to be able to access it directly without opening a menu or overview first.

Steam provides a quick launch menu, thats a good enough reason for me.

Technical issues are worth resolving, but I want the UI to remain the same as the windows one. Its a pattern that works just fine.

Twine?! Really? Be a professional, zip tie or electrical tape, anything less is mediocrity /s

Does seem worse IMO. There is nothing wrong with the windows tray, should just copy that and call it done.

Hardisks also. Dont store important data, they are due to fail eventually.

I’d be resistant to reuse the power supply. Its long overdue to fail, and if it fails and takes out your brand new stuff, you’ll be a bit unhappy.

While we wait for actual valid suggestions (I’m also in the market for some good hiking poles), in keeping with the low budget options, you could try a hollow metal curtain rod from a hardware store. You can put a rubber foot on it, and it might be a bit lighter than a stick, but still fairly strong.

Hopefully someone has some better suggestions soon.

If a little more heft is okay, and you want to be able to use it as a club, perhaps a staff/large stick would be an answer? Cheap/free, just find one and make sure the ends dont have splinters. Will be sturdy, as long as you keep it dry, will last ages.

Downside is that it won’t be collapsible.

Does seem broken for me.

Yeah, from what I understand, not easy to remove cranks without special tools. Dremel might work, but maybe a bike shop might be easier/safer/quicker.

Edit: short term fix, zip tie it to the tube so it doesn’t move?

Is it a mount for a chain guard?

If you can’t take off the cranks and remove it, maybe tin snips and cut it off?

It doesn’t, my point is that this isnt anything new, and your take isnt particularly novel or controversial.

Dead internet theory long predates genAI/LLMs.

The answer is to fix the hospital issues, not to play Russian roulette with mothers lives. “Fallback” is no good if the mother is bleeding out, or the baby is not breathing, and the hospital is 10 minutes away. Every second counts.

Yeah, no shit. Its basically antivax nonsense applied to birth.

Giving birth in a hospital has its fair share of horrors, but child birth used to have a really high mortality rate (and still does in parts of the world). Anyone who wants to go back to that is ignoring history.

Except that these are AIs trained on the CEOs thoughts, so its a bit of a “We trained him wrong, as a joke” situation.

Archery. Relatively cheap sport to get into (no consumable bullets).

As for limited mobility, that depends on what you mean, wheelchair - not a problem, upper body - maybe a problem, depending on the extent. Crossbows can solve the strength part, but if you can’t aim, that will be a bit harder.
