@Igelfreundin has done an ebike conversion
1 Like
@Crow is right. I have a Hill Topper. I simply replaced my original front wheel with their wheel and embedded motor, then ran the wires to the battery, which I attach at the back. I have a steel-frame, three-speed German bike, and the ebike conversion kit works for me. I particularly liked being able to use the electric assist only when I want it, and being able to keep my existing bike.

I need hashtags or search terms to follow to get images of decor that fit the following things in my head:
- independent artist in their 40s living a solitary lifestyle
- many found objects
- handmade ceramics
- warm tones
- thrifted wood furniture
- houseplants, usually up high
- muddy boots by the door

Would that be cottagecore?

I don’t know, I keep seeing a lot of tiny huts, aprons, and gardens but I haven’t delved into a search yet. I’ll see if it fits!

Yeah “cottagecore” might be a bit more Kiki’s Delivery Service esq than what you’re looking for.
lol what you’re describing sounds like the pacific north west in a bottle. Wonder if anyone’s made that into a “core” yet.

How is my cat both tiny and enormous?

This got me thinking and I remembered- if you haven’t run across the apartment therapy home tours, those could be an excellent place to start.

This was the first one where the title caught my eye, but I haven’t had time to sort through yet. I know I’ve seen a couple Portland ones come up over the years that might fit!

theory:
It is well known that cats are liquid, capable of changing shape.
Some cats can also phase shift to become gaseous, expanding and contracting to fill space according to their whims.

I look at him and in the same instant am filled with awe at how tiny he is and how huge he is. He is a paradox.

What are your recommendations for a beginner-friendly, free video editing software?
I have “Video Editor” already installed on my computer because apparently it comes with Windows 10. I can start playing around with it but I figured I’d check and see if people had other ones they’d recommend.
I’ve made like one edited video in my life and it was about 12 years ago. This will be a very simple project–basically I just need to compile a bunch of short video clips into one video, throw in some pictures and a title page or something and call it a day.

I use DaVinci Resolve, the free version. It was rec’d somewhere on OMD awhile back. It’s not entirely intuitive, but there are good YT videos and tutorials out there.

I also use DaVinci Resolve. I much prefer Adobe Premier, but now they are a subscription model and the computer I previously had the software on no longer works.
YouTube has tutorials for everything, like Oro said. That helps a ton. DaVinci was not intuitive the way premier was.
What website do you use to commission art of yourself and your partner as characters in a movie? Like affordable birthday present/fast for the artist, not like fine art deep into fandom art

Like a caricature drawing? Or having your heads placed in a movie poster?
Etsy?

I got an Uber gift card from work. What is the most ethical way to use it? E.g.order food but pick it up ourselves…
(I had an Uber account but it was tied to my last work phone and all I had was the email address that was tied to it but apparently Uber is completely unable to deal with a different phone number plus lost password combo. And then this new work cell phone number was already in their system too. So I need to prove it is actually mine and really the number of hoops I am going through to set up accounts to use gift cards - see last year’s skip the dishes where I still haven’t gotten the gift card is just such a scam)
