@arstechnica I guess Microsoft never heard of Google or YouTube? The instructions are there, I'm sure, and if they're not, they will be.

@arstechnica News flash: there are a lot of problems pilots don't report for the same fear. Give that some serious thought.

Brompton C Line Electric review: Fun and foldable, fits better than you’d think

A motor evens out its natural disadvantages, but there's still a learning curve.

@arstechnica I don't see any information about the weight of this bike.

I bought a Lectric Lite for $800 delivered. It comes assembled; you just put in the seat. There are now screws for folding. It's sturdy and heavy duty. Normal size tires. I'm not seeing the benefit of a $3000-$4000 ebike.

My Apple Watch Series 3 is really showing its age, with a battery that won't last 22 hours anymore. When I replace it, it won't be with another Apple Watch.
