            Contrary to arch mispronounced by French, Arsch, arse and ass are real cognates. So similiarities in certain dialects/accents are to be expected.

    Top right one confuses me. Incliment weather does significantly affect bikes but trains and buses are actually better at operating in incliment weather than cars. Here in Vancouver as soon as it snows (which it just did) everyone seem to get too scared to drive and pile onto public transit, but surprise surprise it can’t cope with the sudden spike in demand because we’re still a car dominated hellhole for the other 364 days of the year and our transit agency gets peanuts in funding compared to private car infrastructure.

      I thought the ‘cold rainy night in Stoke’ meme was fairly well-known, but it seems multiple people are not getting it. It is basically asking if a tried and tested method / person can do this one very specific (and relatively easy) thing. Here’s the origin story if you are interested.

    where is that Socrates image from?

    Can i have a full sized copy?

    when did he say the body thing? and why would anyone attribute a quote to Socrates instead of Plato? Socrates never wrote anything

      The quote is (abridged) from Xenophon’s Memorabilia, as LordAmplifier explained above. The image was generated by StableDiffusion based on the prompt ‘Socrates driving a cycle’. I can add the full image later.

      I found the same quote in an old reddit thread, where someone provides Memorabilia, a book written by a guy called Xenophon of Athens, who was a student of Socrates, as a possible sauce:

      3.12.8 “Besides, it is a disgrace to grow old through sheer carelessness before seeing what manner of man you may become by developing your bodily strength and beauty to their highest limit. But you cannot see that, if you are careless; for it will not come of its own accord."

      Archive link to the relevant chapter because the original University of Chicago link is dead.

      According to this Wikipedia article, the book is a collection of Socratic dialogues, so it’s not a collection of quotes. Book 3, where this particular quote comes from, is about Socrates giving advice to his family and friends, so I guess Xenophon claims that it is an authentic quote, but I don’t know if there’s a way to verify that.

        Wow! A rare Xenophon quote?? That’s awesome. Thank you. It sounds like something Socrates might have discussed but I couldn’t think of which Platonic dialog it came from. I guess that explains it.

        How does any group dox a bus route number? I get it if it was a single bus and hiding registration number of the bus, but it’s a route with dozens of bus operating on that route. How would doxxing even working… Eyyy you drive route XXX in Singapore… You should prolly delete existence?

        Sounds far fetched.
