This is my second and more personal account, where you can expect bicycle selfies, crochet patterns, travel photos and notes about weather :)

I enjoy debates about FOSS, Linux, Fedora, CentOS and so on, but I'll try to use my another account npub1yln0x64vj8ajrj9xlgu8qw3vx63f7g42v5qamx966p52e7tfdcas8phx7t (npub1yln…hx7t) for that.

Why is this hobby called "sewing" and not "cutting"?

Do they do that in the cooking shows too?
"Content Warning - Maths: The water to rice proportion is 2:1" ?

It puts me off a bit when sewing instructors put a "Content Warning: Algebra!!" in their tutorials.
Like yes, if you are doing a circle skirt you need to calculate a circle radius from you waist measurement. And yes, it means you need to divide it by \pi.
And it should be perfectly normal for adults to be able to divide two numbers.
And when you do a 6-panel skirt you need to divide by six. It is not black magic.
I get that it is supposed to be a joke, but is it a good joke then?

Re removable battery, I am a bit worried since I am not going to ride from home to work, but rather from home to a tram stop, and the bike can be parked exposed for a day(or night) there.
With removable battery should I remove it and take with me? Or is there a lock? How safe it is to let it stay?

OK, winter is coming and I think I am ready to buy a city e-bike.
It should be:
* one you can easily ride in casual clothes, even a skirt or a rain coat
* mostly getting me from home to a tram stop or to a supermarket
* normally parked in a garage, but also chained at the tram stop
* city-winter-friendly (darkness, wind, rain, water, but not mud)
* with a rear rack
* 28'' wheels (as my other bike)
