Prefacing with, I want an e-bike.

As someone who commuted for a decade on a non e-bike. I'm legitimately wondering how we integrate them into existing infrastructure in the US. 50cc is the limit for gas engines before you need a motorcycle license, which at the high end is ~5HP. I'm seeing e-bikes with way more than 5HP being used on sidewalks. I don't have an answer to the problem but it scares me to have such easy access to basically motorcycles that are classified as bicycles. I spent 2 decades sweating and learning to ride fast, now an inexperienced idiot can do 20+ mph when they have no business going that fast.

I weirdly don't hate the warcraft movie. It sucks in some ways but it does a good job feeling like it's in the warcraft universe.

It depends what you want to do. System integration is sort of the broad name for people in my field. Its a software stack sort of like how networking layers work. Controls->scada->MES->janky messaging connector->SAP with other random stuff sprinkled in. The Wikipedia article has an OK introduction to it.

If your interested take a controls class that actually uses Rockwell or Siemens PLCs, not the theoretical stuff. There is also open source stuff that runs on arduino or other controllers.

Or see if you like programming. Python is used for inductive automations Ignition SCADA and visual basic/C# is AVEVAs wonder ware. Their are others out there, these are the ones I've used.

I'm a system integrator, and though I don't do it right now, I'd consider myself an expert in dairy. I could see someone specializing in chocolate similarly.

The reason people don't know about these jobs is because they aren't advertised very well. My MS in mechanical engineering barely touched on it and I sort of fell into it on accident by knowing someone in the industry.

Edit: thinking about it for a moment, I actually did some work for a European chocolate producer about a decade ago

It's such a hard topic to discuss because everyone has varying exposure to how much ground empathy can gain. After living it, I can say that they are more lost than most people think.

So start treating them the way they will treat you. Personally I'll leave someone to die if they have a Trump sticker/flag/hat/etc, because they would do the same to me.

I'm ex republican. Higher education and having my life ripped apart by our state's AG fixed me... barely. Compassion won't fix these people. They fucking suck to their core and would rather die than change their opinions. I don't have a good solution. Platforming the stupid in our country is a large part of the problem.

This is exactly how meth heads act lol. Throwing around words they think about the argument and rambling.

I tagged you a while ago. Only an idiot would label me as a fascist, because you have deep misunderstanding of the word.

I do live rural so see lots of methed out people. The randomness of your reasoning and arguing with a ghost are both signs of meth use. Either that or mental health issues.

Only an idiot wouldn't have seen drone warfare coming a decade ago. It's sad it took you so long to figure it out.

Good parenting my dude. I kept telling myself that repeating the same failing routines was insanity, so I ran experiments on her. Some kids are just soooo difficult.
