Every time a windows/mac user switches to libre software, Saint iGNUcius (aka GNU/god) smiles. Keep it up.

Glad I use arch btw, pacman manages my python packages so I don’t have to deal with all this mess.

Yet another python packager............... insane that such a popular language still doesn’t have this basic problem solved.

If they were honest, they would call it Unfair Source. 'We get to put bully our users for two years, and then they can have their freedom" - what’s “”“fair”“” about that? Yes, I said bully, because they can put spyware, malware and bad features without anyone being able to redistribute a copy without the mal-features. So either you get bullied, or you wait two years before the software goes open source. But by the time it’s gone open source, the software will most likely be obsolete, because that’s the pace of modern software development. Completely stupid license. If you want to keep your freedom, stick to free software.

Well, unsafe if there are cars all around you. But if we replaced a lot of cars with these vehicles which typically go around 40 to 70 km/h cruise speed, I think it would become way safer than cars.

I’m not sure the bike is the accurate comparison target compared to the scooter or car for commuting. Also, I think the main reason they are not so popular is laws. I think there was another article on solar.lowtechmagazine where this was discussed, but from my fuzzy memory, the issue there is not yet a separate category for these kinds of high speed limit, electrical assistance vehicles. You either have to use it like a bike, in which case in many countries you are not allowed to go past a low set speed limit (something like 30 km/h) with elecrical assistance, or you have to register the vehicle to be in the category of motorbikes, in which case you are subject to the same rules, like having a license plate, needing to get your vehicle checked at the garage every year and other things. Maybe try to find the article, it will be better explained.
