  • I tend to do the same, also for those websites that come with a secondary pop up.

    Makes me feel like they really don't give a fuck, so why should i then and it's easy to click back and try the next website in the rows of results.

    The weirdest one i found was a couple days ago and i kinda give them props for it, as it made me go: "woooow almost had me."

    They had this whole standard wall of text with reasons to get you to accept and i didn't see thr reject all button. It was a fairly lenghty wall too so i started scanning it for recognizeable words until my eyes passed: "reject" in the text. It was regular looking text but clickable.

    Online shopping used to mean lower prices and a bit of a wait.

    Nowadays it's: more expensive because of shipping, delivery not doing their job or even stealing your shit, which leads to you having to pick it up at a place further from your house than the store that sells it.

    Over here they are supposed to deliver it to you in person but half the time (if not more) they'll just leave a "you weren't home note" even though you took the day off and then drop it off at a pickup point.

    Downside is that i can't stop online shopping because the stores never carry what i need.







  • I do everything on a roadbike and fixed gear, which are claimed to have the highest risk of getting a flat tire.

    I usually have 2 flats a year which cost around 6€. I usually get a new pair of tires roughly once a year "just to be safe" when i notice the rubber showing oddities or they start losing grip a little. I usually go for continental GP (4kII/5k) tires if they are discounted and pay roughly 80€ for a pair.

    I'm curious to see if this "no flat" tire will be cheaper and if it can be run tubeless.
