>Speeds over 30 mph on some descents

All that aero is probably not working so well for you. Even on my mountain bike with grippy and wide tires I get over 40 mph. On my gravel I can hit over 50 mph, and thats with 45mm tires.

Scientists have theoretically predicted that light can be bent under pseudogravity. A recent study by researchers using photonic crystals has demonstrated this phenomenon. This breakthrough has significant implications for optics, materials science, and the development of 6G communications.

I grew up around peanuts. My grandparents had a big peanut plantation at their country house, so they always had tons of peanuts at home.

The first time I took my wife (then girlfriend) to visit them, they were having peanuts in the shell — by cracking the shell open and eating them.

My wife, looking very puzzled and intrigued, asked my grandfather. “What is that?”, to which he replied “Uh… peanuts?”. Oh how we laughed.

She was 20 years old at the time and didn’t know peanuts came from the shell, she’d have only seen them without it.

I still remember my grandfathers smile, he had never met anyone that didn’t “know peanuts”. He found it so funny. I miss him.
