I cannot even make sense of the Obamacare comparison... do people really fall for this word vomit? Sad.

I concur; we should always strive for progress, not perfection.

[discussion] What do you do with your e-bike when you go to a store? in c/fuckcars@lemmy.world

The rad runner is 70+ lbs, while not necessarily heavy, it is cumbersome to move around when both tires are immovable from the wheel lock (through rear wheel) and folding lock (through front wheel, bike frame, & bike post). Where I live there is always a bike post conveniently located nearby to lock it to.

I have a rad runner, with it I use a wheel lock, long security chain which bolts into said wheel lock, and then a folding lock I use as well with all that. My hope is all that overkill'll just deter a thief entirely. If anything it'll buy time for me to catch them in the act and chase them away.
