Sadly most dynamo powered lights don’t have a real steady mode on low speeds but yeah, whenever possible, steady is the right choice

This is another easy method to adjust headlights on a bike:

You should be able to see where the far end of your light cone on the ground is. If the illuminated region just fades into the distance, it’s too high.

Oh, just saw that it’s broken right now anyway. Ok then.

Thinking about shutting down my labeler ( @fightinglabeler.bsky.social )

Do I really want to contribute to bsky’s platform when they obviously don’t care about people like me?

I’m conflicted, mainly because clean shutdown will take a bunch of extra work.

That’s so cool!

The lower the light is to the ground, the more forward it should point.

A light at typical handlebar height will be very different from one on the small front wheel of a cargo bike.

The front light should mostly illuminate the ground so you can see what’s there, and a little forward too, but the center of the light cone should point slightly down.

If you have front lights on your bicycle (which you should), please adjust them so that they don’t blind people.

Have someone hold your bike upright, stand in front of it a few meters away, and check if the light shines in your face. If you’re tall, check from a lower position than standing.

Seeing other people’s bodies as inherently sexual … yeah that’s rancid

I know people are using generative “AI” to get pop culture crossover images.

But it’s actually way cooler to just tell people what the crossover is and let their filthy (compliment) minds do the heavy lifting:

- Disney/Pixar’s The Horus Heresy

- Pokémon (creature design by H.R. Giger)

See?
