I was speaking anecdotally, but it’s good to back that up with some data.

Page 15, Table 1 shows a clean table, with Denmark in the bottom 10 for large hail size in European countries; relative to places like Germany, large hail (the kinds you’d really want to avoid while on a bike) in Denmark is considerably more rare. That study only has two citations, though, so not the greatest source.

This survey is much better cited and comments on hail throughout Europe and in Denmark, but I can’t access the PDF at the moment: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0169809516300291

I never said they don’t get hail, I said they don’t get regular hail. In general, hail is uncommon in Denmark, and large hail is even more rare.

Yeah… pretty sure Denmark doesn’t get regular thunderstorms or hail storms.

Taking a vacation road trip from Florida to the Grand Canyon with three kids with only bikes also comes at quite the cost. Bikes are great, but in many practical scenarios they are slow. Not all of us live in Manhattan, or a dense city, or even a well connected and safe to traverse suburb.

Bikes cost time.

Just in case this needs to be painfully spelled out: 100% don’t do that

No, by definition a Constitutional Amendment would be part of the Constitution. All branches of government derive their authority from the Constitution. Simply put, the Constitution is above SCOTUS.

The Supreme Court can intercede if the process for ratification is not followed, but as long as the agreed upon process is followed there is literally nothing a judge could do.

Yeah… their team won. The idea that Trump voters will be ousted first is more fantastical than an actual day dream.

Oh, so the people who need it the most, fantastic.

Was gonna post the same thing. Scott’s two videos on the topic are a great intro for the science-minded general public.

You’d be surprised how well modern cubesats are already designed implicitly with high-G components. There was a video about them testing an “off-the-shelf” sat from a professor and it held up with only some minor modifications.

I’ll judge, that is a dumb as fuck.

It seems easier to just go buy a live chicken.
