Good. Maybe when more people realize it’s an ad engine and not a search engine they’ll stop using it and all google services.

Debian uses a group called sudo. Add a user to that group.

Not an expert. Just surface observations. Where I live there are a lot of South Korean-Christian churches serving the S Korean American community, so I just assumed it was a common religion there. It was my understanding that South Korea today is one of the most western like cultures in Asia, so it didn’t surprise me. We had an influx of S. Korean immigrants after the Korean War, and over the years while we’ve been allies and held a military presence on S. Korean soil. Ive worked with a few retired military persons who met their spouse while stationed in South Korea.

On a side note Christianity may be an exclusive religion (1st commandment: thou shall not worship any gods before me), but from my understanding Buddhism is not. Perhaps it’s possible to be both without any conflicting beliefs. I know there are plenty of conflicting beliefs already wired into Christianity. What’s a few more between peaceful religions.

I love it! We went from battery tech to being me getting scolded like a toddler. We are going to have to disagree here. If you can’t stay awake and alert for 19 hours, fine. Good on you for recognizing your limits, but you have to concede there are people out in the world who can do it, safely. Probably more than you think. Yes there is a reason truck drivers keep logs and take lawful mandatory rests. They do it as a job every day, and they get exploited to keep a schedule. Mulitple days of sleep deprivation will have consequences. Were are talking about 1 recreational day on a motorcycle with plenty of preparation. Believe or not it’s not hard. Especially in perfect weather conditions.

I appreciate your point of view, but I think it’s kind of reductive. Anyone taking on a road trip like that needs to understand their physical fitness and their limits. I wasn’t bragging. And there are plenty of people out there who have done what I have so there is no reason to think I’m treading new water. I learned from others who ride. You keep yourself physically fit, Get a good nights rest, stay hydrated, but most importantly you know your limits and know when to stop if there are signs. You do you, and I’ll do me.

That’s optimistic and I like that, but a company like Honda doesn’t make decisions based on optimism. They’re confined by government regulations and bottom line profit. I heard last year that they had planned to discontinue the Goldwing soon due to JP environmental regulations, so this announcement doesn’t surprise me. The Goldiwng is a 6 cyl with a 5 gal tank that estimates about 300 mile range. I do hope that at some point in my life we will see comparable range performance in EVs. The pessimist in me is worried we’re going to be limited in the distances we can travel in a day. The last time I made a trip across the US from California to home it took 3 days. I can’t imagine how long it would have taken if we had to stop to charge every 200-250 miles. I haven’t even heard of an EV cycle with anything near that range yet. 15 years isn’t that far away.

I’ve made multiple 1,200 mile trips in under 24 hours on my Goldwing. I don’t think we are anywhere near the battery tech required for anything close to that, and I’m worried the technology limitations will prevent batteries from ever reaching that.

That’s ok. You’re young. You’ve still got time.
