I believe I just have.
@jamesrcs The trick is to cook the bacon slowly, in an oven, maybe 250 degrees. You'll get this color but it will still be soft. If you fry to this color, or bake at a high temperature, The bacon will get almost as hard as glass. _That_ would be overcooked.

I wasn't with you until the last line.

@business Second attempt on Trumps life. He's got to be scared shitless.

AI is all middle brow art at best - (deriviative). Low Brow art can become High Brow (think Van Gogh, Banksy). But Middle Brow almost never becomes High Brow (think Cats).

Am I right? 🤡

They went from an almost exclusive bicycle culture to a moped culture. They retired the bicycle. They don't use them as primary transportation anymore.

@BonehouseWasps @MichelPatrice @straphanger
Interesting responses. I have nothing against bicycles. The bicycle infrastructure, at least in Portland, is getting more and more standardized, which means I don't have to figure out some 'unique' configuration on the fly (whether I'm a bicyclist or a driver). I'm just saying that reality will take its own route and will pick its own mode of transport. And, in Southeast Asia at least, they retired the bicycle.

I'm just telling what I saw and what people told me when I asked where the bicycles went.

@enkiusz @straphanger I saw two electric scooters. But, to be fair, that's new tech, so they are in an early adoption phase.

My point is that working class folks, while understanding all of our environmental concerns, have additional, more pressing concerns. "I need to get to work and not be sweating like a pig after riding my bike for an hour one way." This is what happened in Vietnam. People, normal people, need to get to work, and bicycles only suffice for a select few.
