Bing/Dalle. Prompt is obvious!
I want the wear a helmet vibe.
Found the parent
Nah for real though helmets are MVP
I used to never wear a helmet when commuting to school etc. but since I started mountain biking getting one seemed like a no-brainer and now it’s like putting on my seatbelt. Riding without a helmet feels wildly irresponsible and I even put it on when doing a test-drive around the block after having done some maintenance.
ah yes, the acoustic bike, famous for its sound amplification
Should be something more analogous to its mechanics, like “analog”. Wait a minute…
Acoustic doesn’t have a top tube…
Its just a very insecure step through bike.
Electric doesn’t have the left leg of the owner.
Acoustic has a red light in the front?
Some bikes don’t
However: invisible pedals
I’d ride them both. Err–the bikes, yes, both bikes.
It punches me in the soul when someone uses the phrase “acoustic bike.” I get that people are using it like it is used in guitars, but it makes no sense when applied to bikes.
The literal definition of acoustic from the dictionary is “of or relating to sound, the sense of hearing, or the science of sound.” Non-electric bikes barely make any sound! Calling them “acoustic”… it is a terrible label.
If you don’t oil your bike, it gets acoustic.
A better adjective would be “Analogue”.
That’s not really great either, though. I mean, there isn’t really a digital/analog separation either.
“Human-powered” versus “electric-assist”, maybe?
Honestly why not just “manual”? Sure on an electric you also do some manual labor, but you are being assisted quite a bit. The other one is 100% manual labor.
I know and that was the point! I was half hoping the ai would add strings or wood features to the “acoustic” bike or an amp or something to the electric one.
Simple, manual bike vs. electric bike. As in: manual labor, manual workers, a manual transmission, manual computation, manual indexing, manual bike.
What about…
unamplifiedDictionary experts are always shouting that the dictionary does not define language, it just describes it. If we’re honest it seems that the masses are adding a new definition to acoustic meaning unpowered or human-powered (and they have every right to do so as they’ve always done)…
I think it would just be bike or bicycle. If it’s powered then it becomes an electric bicycle. If it really becomes necessary to specify then you could say traditional bicycle or regular bicycle. Maybe peddle bicycle vs self propelled?
Is it a bird?
Is it a plane?
I actually can’t tell.
My guess is a flying fish
What the heck is going on with the pedals of the electric bike?
I mean, the “acoustic” bike doesn’t even seem to have any in the first place, so…
I noticed. But not having them at all is easier to understand than…whatever that other thing is.
It’s the future, brah
AI images.
I’m aware.
Do you want a “tron-esque nightmare” with no drivetrain or an “acoustic bike” with no frame?
Choose your VIBE bro!
Shitty AI images. AI doesn’t know how to do pedals.
I’ll take the one with the seat. Not exactly too keen on riding with the seatpost up my ass 😂
Percussive bike? Wind bike?
A quirk of english language I find funny is that digit=finger. Therefore, digital prostate examination isn’t something as high-tech as you might expect…
Whenever someone asks me why I don’t use graphical user interface, I tell them that “graphical” comes from the Greek word for “to write”, so my command line is actually a GUI
I heard Marjorie Taylor Greene is actually Dog the Bounty Hunter in drag. I mean, has anyone seen the both of them in the same place at the same time?
I’m an analogue bike kind of guy.
I ride both regularly
Soo… peddles?
