Why do people still drive cars daily when bikes exist?

And heat. Particularly with workplaces with no end of trip facilities. It's 106 F with the heat index and humid where I live currently. My last workplace had lockers and showers, and so I rode even in the rain and heat, but my current job has no bike facilities whatsoever. I only ride in when the weather is good enough that I can ride in without worrying about changing more than my pants and shoes and freshening up.

People with pets: how do you deal with all the fur?

We have a labrador. He gets brushed with a Furminator brush every few weeks, and we vacuum EVERY. SINGLE. WEEK. Otherwise the shedding is out of control.

We discovered shortly after we adopted him that I am allergic to dogs, something I never noticed growing up with dogs, likely because my family's house was larger than our small apartment. So now the solution is being better about cleaning, as well as a daily dose of zyrtec for the life of our dog.

Not really. If the admins of that instance don't want to federated, that's their prerogative. They'll gain or lose users based on that decision. The beauty of the fediverse is that it's all on a voluntary basis. If beehaw decides to federate with a small cluster of other instances, then they'll have their own niche just like the current internet.

I didn't try MCC or multiplayer, since I was just performance testing on the computer (will eventually be the wife's machine after we move next month), but even running Academy with the bots was running great. I was able to sign into my Microsoft account no problem though, so I want to try multiplayer next.

But that's no different than the current internet. Like I said, it's beehaw's problem. If they want to strictly enforce native users on their instance and have their stricter account creation process to join their community, then that's no different than the current internet.
