@BruteSquad: Do you also get mad when someone tells you to "Google it" or "use a Kleenex"?
@PaddyDugan: When I had lowly 3meg service, I never got HD, only 3/4 bars. Once I bumped up to 8 and then 12, I've (almost) never had a problem running at the highest quality.
@TorturedWriter: When HD content is available, it's pretty good. Just as good as TV. I'll take it.
@baxtercedar: I have not. I do. Iowa =/
If you have plastic or glass armor, WATCH OUT! However, if you have some steel or kevlar, carry on.
@AclockWorkApple, sprung a leak and is now running lean on bank 2! Awesome!: Learn Hungarian and ask them to design you one.
@ziffelbat: Of course, when even "sooner" approaches infinity...
@baxtercedar: All you need to do to make this safe is use a wire that isn't brittle, so when it reaches the end of its life-cycle, it just stretches out, rather than sudden, catastrophic failure.
@Scott: Yep
@AclockWorkApple, sprung a leak and is now running lean on bank 2! Awesome!: Even if it's not concentric, the spring-loaded cable will just pick up the slack, and if anything, suspension movement could help propel you forward.
Here's my take on this.
To all those wondering how this works:
@George Smiley: One end of the cable is attached to the frame, the other to a one-way freewheel, so when you press down on the pedal, the cable pulls the wheel along. Another spring-loaded cable winds up the freewheel when it is not in the power stroke. (there is one mechanism on each side, so each cable is being used…
@duck: Basically, except the wire is pulled back by another spring-loaded wire on the seatstays. Not sure why they decided to go that route, but it could be something to do with having the spring inside a moving part, as well as possible increased tension you have to fight while pedaling.
@AclockWorkApple, sprung a leak and is now running lean on bank 2! Awesome!: There's no reason this design couldn't incorporate a suspension. Also, I'd be willing to bet it's the same or lighter than a chain design, save perhaps for a single-speed.
@knightvash: *their
@kernelRiot: Alt+F4.
@kernelRiot: Pssst, you don't have to press Ctrl first. Just Shift+Home does the same thing. Then again, Ctrl+A is one-hand-able.
@loosejello: Scratch that, article says 20, videos say 30.
