I have tried: taping them together, hot glueing them together and ziptying it right to the frame to prevent jiggle.

All have failed.

Right now, when I reconnect them and apply pressure, I can't even get the engine to turn on anymore. But the speedometer still works and that signal is sent through the engine cable too.

Recently, sometimes the engine rear wheel barely rolls when I roll the bike backwards.

There are no ebike repair stores in my city.

As a general rule:

Machiavellianism is manipulation

Narcissism is looks

Psychopathy is violence

ChatGPT tells me this question is very offensive to psychopaths and refuses to answer.

Kinda managed to attract a founder of FOSS note taking app (which got tens of thousands of users). He made his first post in this unofficial community

Disclainwer I wouldn't take me very seriously.

If I come across other fedi news/drama for today I'll put it in the comments rather than making more threads, you could still make your own threads. I had to make this post bc I am very proud of the titles 🥰

1 user calls the great centralization of Lemmy around Lemmyml https://lemmy.ml/post/1141502?scrollToComments=true

Qualified immunity and certified comrade tm yogthos is sanctioned from world news for a 2nd time: Banned ☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆ from the community World News@lemmy.ml reason: unfriendly behaviour expires: in 7d

This fantastic result was achieved by young blood Reddit Liberals fighting the old blood Communists Allegiance of Lemmy inc. No holds barred!

With a triple pile driver finisher, the #CommunistAlligance Defeated 3 #RedditLiberals sending them back to the Reddit void of shame!

Also beehaw creates 5 new subs.

Tldr:

User coldy: can you make it so users can make their own subs not just admins

Beehaw admin Gaywallet: no

Coldy: I quit

Without just recreating the entire document

I'm down for more chat rooms, especially the alive and kicking rooms.

Which rooms y'all in, and roughly how busy are they?

Just a reminder that the community you are looking at currently is not the Privacy Guides community announced on Reddit

If you are on lemmy.ml, the Privacy Guides community can be found here: https://lemmy.ml/c/privacyguides@lemmy.one

If you are on any other Lemmy instance, search for !privacyguides@lemmy.one on your search page.

With Reddit’s encroaching IPO and their poorly planned API changes, we need a place to keep up with privacy topics that isn’t tied to an anti-privacy, centralized sinking ship site.

Our forum running Discourse has been a great place to discuss website changes and answer questions, but it doesn’t quite provide the same experience as Reddit does for things like sharing news, so we’re trying something new:

!privacyguides@lemmy.one is our new ActivityPub-enabled community for sharing links and other information from the privacy and security realm. Welcome!

We’re going to be trying out posting to this community for a few months to decide if we want this to replace or coexist with the r/privacyguides subreddit, so we’ll see how it goes. If you want this to succeed, stay active! Our mission is to become the most inviting and friendly place to discuss privacy and security on the fediverse 😎

Verification post: https://www.reddit.com/r/PrivacyGuides/comments/13x7oe3/who_wants_to_try_out_lemmy_privacyguideslemmyone/

to start: we’re going to start staggering when we approve people a little more–at this point, we’ve literally doubled our existing userbase. registrations today will be processed at a slower pace while we talk over how much further we want to let things go, and at what pace we want to continue letting people in so things don’t become truly overwhelming.

if you’d like to introduce yourself without it getting lost in all the posts already made, i just made a thread for that over here

our sidebar should give you most of the information you’re looking for about us, but to reiterate some: we are pretty relaxed here, but we have a well carved out understanding of what we want to be. if you would like more elaboration on that, you can find elaboration on that at length in the following two posts:

What is Beehaw? Beehaw is a Community

for some less lengthy and more relaxed elaboration, see the discussion in the comments of this post.

as for funding: we are 100% user-funded. if you would like to contribute to our ability to keep the website up, you can donate on OpenCollective, which supports both one-time donations or monthly donations.

a few questions occasionally pop up like “why do we have the set of communities we do?” and “why can’t people make their own?” (the latter is a feature of lemmy). for elaboration on that, you can see the following post and the discussions here. we are open to suggestions and creating communities as demand sees fit; see also discussion here.

downvotes are disabled on this instance and that’s a thing we’re not liable to change. if you’d like elaboration for why that is, see this comment. this may be a point of friction for some coming from reddit, but i hope you’ll understand why we’re doing it even if you don’t necessarily agree with it.

if you’re interested in our governance to this point and a brief idea of our long term goals, see the comment here.

feel free to sound off on other questions you have; i’ll try to update the OP with those and our ability to answer them as time goes on.
