Incidentally, these magic numbers of 111,111 are easy to remember by knowing some history: the French originally defined the meter so that 10^7 meters would be the distance along the Paris meridian from the equator to the north pole. Thus, 10^7 / 90 = 111,111.1 meters equals one degree of latitude to within the capabilities of French surveyors two centuries ago.

So its not just a coincidence, it was defined that way!

It should make you distrustful of politics, lawmakers, lobbyists, and capitalism not science itself. Pure science is unbiased and systematic, by definition.

should be easy to write like a forum skin UI for lemmy, no?

(thinking like https://old.lemmy.world or https://a.lemmy.world but made to look like a forum)

LOL I originally did draft it that way when I was submitting, but changed it so it didn't sound like I was 14!

So apparently there's no such thing as a 750w bbshd, what happens is they take a 1000w motor and lock/throttle down to 750w, maybe for legal/regulation purposes?

So what people do is the other way around, they purchase the ones sold as 750w and unlock to achieve full 1000w potential!

I guess in your case, are you sure it's unlocked to 1000w? If so, you could in theory get the programming cable and lock/throttle it down to 750w yourself

Google search for "bafang programming"

Ride a bike. You get exercise, sunlight, cheap transportation, thrills/adventure, and good feelings, it's a win win

And if possible, find a local social bicycling group near you. Adds even more benefits when you are riding with a group
