I am also sceptical it works, but it is worth a try.
These watches are part of a status and this status allows these people to dictate to the rest of us how they'd like their omelette.
Ecologically because old growth forrests have a much more diverse system with big fungal networks, ecological nooks and crannies, etc. A system takes time to build.
Sickness and bad conditions usually slow growth down.
In tree farms almost all the trees are in bad condition. The low biodiversity creates a low quality environment. They catch fire very easily. It's low quality wood that ends up in a landfill (and then in the air via rotting) within a few decades.
Eventually a tree will get sick and die. The most ideal situation would be to harvest the tree when it's dead. I would think there could be a businessmodel that maps dead trees and extracts them from forrests for high quality old growth wood.
This is not about "stubborn environmentalism". Although I do agree with you that some environmentalist ideas are a bit short sighted (like dismissing all nuclear options without weighing the properly), it is generally based in science and research. The anti-environmentalist side are usually mostly based in money and corporate interests...
When we talk about music, layers or tracks or whatever you want to call them always become a thing.
For the sound nerds: A spectrum representation also does not reflect how we experience sound. We humans/animals are so trained or born to distinguish sound sources by timbre. A spectrum analyser splits it on the spectrum of tones, not the spectrum of timbres, therefor it's still not a good representation.
The only problem is, is that this kind of guard typically is quite susceptible to damage if the bike falls or when you hit something.
Otherwise it is in many ways superior to a belt. Belts are inherently inefficient compared to chains.
It needs an iCloud log in, so you can't install free software on a kiosk without a throw away account. Which is hard to set up.
Why do you first need to 'get' an app and then install it?
How many affirmations do you need?
