Happy 20th Birthday 4chan. I traveled to Fremont, CA to meet up with some dear friends and family and found out that the the Niles Canyon Railway was doing a steam excursion to commemorate the Bronco Billy Film Festival where they were showcasing silent-era films that were shot in Bay Area at the turn of the century so I booked a last-minute ride aboard it.Will dump my album and go over some history of the railroad and its equipment below.

>>1983838you can get a phone that was absolute cutting edge 2 years ago for $500 and it's more likely to be with you 100% of the time and in most cases do a good enough job (in some cases worse in some cases actually better)pic here was taken at night with my midrange phone from 2 years ago, I have no idea what I'm doing I just pointed and pressed the button. there's far better stuff out there but surely you're not going to say this fairly mediocre phone hardware isn't 'good enough' for almost any reasonable use case

Downtown tunnel/"underground cities"/skywalk systems are literally everything urbanists seem to want--a pedestrian-oriented true "walkable city", linking commercial and residential buildings together, but they hate them. Why?

I'm looking to buy something on a budget to haul 15kg but the specs say maximum 10kg (5kg each) Are all budget panniers this garbage if you choose not to pay 200+ euros?
>>1990586how would you mount it to the front of a bike with a vbrake tho?
>>1990838honestly don't mount it to the front of the bike to begin with. it's much more convenient on the side of rear carriers. if you must have a front basket get something specifically designed for it with enough clearance for the brakes and solid mounting.
Just like most bike parts, look on eBay for some old used ones. You won't get waterproof options at a fair price but you can just line the inside of you bag with a black trash bag. Honestly it's a better solution than waterproof bags in any case if you ask me. Waterproof bags suck as bags compared to regular bags
>>1978462i tried these wire ones. pros: they fold away. cons: too slim to fit bulkier stuff like back packs. Even though their combined volume is equal to a milk crate, i can stuff more into a single compartment milk crate rather than 2 half sized compartments. also the height and location of the milk crate is more accessible in terms of retrieving stuff, and working on the bike, cleaning. lopsidedness of having just one side open as often i just need one side open for a few items. whereas the milk crate is never lopsided and don't have to balance the weight of items over two panniers.
>>1991213The problem with a milk crate is just having the weight so high makes the bike handle a bit weirdly over down low. Though I think this can be mitigated a bit if you load the weight on the front, I also don't really notice too much only having say one pannier on the front either.
I really wish to go to space, and i can either go for engineering or spacex will soon enough be able to transport and have a settlement for people to stay on the moon
If you want to go and aren't rich, you better be near the top of your field, and have a good personality. You could be a genius but if you can't pass the psych / physical tests they won't want you. A lot of the people that end up as astronauts are smart jocks. Outgoing, into team sports, sociable, and with brains.
>>1991241Im fat, but confident in my math and physics subjects. I can easily get A+ on this subjects

>>1989473kek is that real? looks like a youtube screenshot and the UI design looks legit.
>>1989652I hate to ruin your fun but there is a HUGE industry of fake recruiters offering scam jobs and bait and switch that bank on the fact that everyone is desperate to work at a brand name company and will gladly suspend disbelief in the hopes that this might be that one chance they shouldn't pass up. at best it ends up as the recruiting version of an MLM scheme where there's technically a "job" of some kind, and there's an extremely tenuous connection to the company mentioned, like it's a shop that once had a one-time contract to Big Company. often it's just a straight up identity theft ring or someone trying to build a database of "job seekers" to sell to otherstl;dr the image is basically the third world job seeker version of "hot women in Anonymous Proxy want to have sex with you now", there's approximately 0% that there is even a real job, anywhere, that the advertiser is in a position to fillalso fuck boeing
It simply keeps happening.

What's the best used bike I can easily find for under $300? I'm basically riding 1.5mi from my form to Walmart on a nice bike trail a few days a week.
>>1991043Are the trails 3rd world/dirt, or are they decently paved?Do you plan on doing winter riding too, or just summer+spring+fall?I already see some decent bikes, and 300 will get you a good bike that works.
>>1991043>Aren't these heavy as shit?You only feel weight when you're climbing My alloy Marin shitbike is 25lbs which is heavy but not ridiculously so.
>>1991043No, most hybrids that are quality are sub 30lbs.BSO's are 35+lbs and that is heavy as shit.Beyond that the marin has strong 36 spoke(low maintenaince) wheels, long cage+3x drivetrain(easy gearing), and thinner tires for easy speed compared to a mtb or bso.
>>1991037figsed geer
>>1991043>Aren't these heavy as shit?probably lighter than anything you've ever ridden. suspension is heavy. Walmart bikes are half-again to double what that pic weighs. Marin started as a boutique brand. that one might be later but it's still quality .you need to tell us how tall you are so we can rec bikes that will fit you.
Do you wear a helmet while riding your bicycle?

>>1979519This is accurate.In the past i've been forced off the road multiple times during night rides. Now, whenever i ride my bike at night, I usually mount a 7000 lumen flashlight to my handlebars in addition to my regular bike light. Whenever i get the feeling that oncoming cars are trying to push me off the road on purpose, i turn the dial up to full power and keep it on until I have passed them. They usually brake and or return to their lanes.
I always wear a helmet. TBIs can happen at shockingly slow speeds.

>>1990743The 3% number sounds closer to what you'd get if you took the number of apartments currently listed as "available for rent" vs the total number of existing apartments. If someone owns an apartment but never places it on the market, that may or may not be considered "vacant" depending on whether you use MLS listing data or ACS census-style data
>>1990750>If someone owns an apartment but never places it on the market,This is happening at extremely low rates.>b-but muh 6 million rent controlled not being listedThis has been debunked thoroughly.https://comptroller.nyc.gov/newsroom/rent-stabilized-vacancies-plummeted-over-last-2-years-including-for-units-in-need-of-repairs-new-nyc-comptroller-report-finds/
>>1990763Non-sequitur. Rent stabilization applies to old buildings. You're not from around here but when people talk about LIC they're not talking about art deco. This is what LIC looks like.
>>1990766I was just bringing up the rent control point because that's the current tiktok/twitter leftist reason as to why housing is so expensive. The notion that most of those new buildings in LIC is empty is ludicrous and unfounded.
>>1990789Ah yes deregulating the markets and removing price controls, that well known leftist take on market failures.
