Bicycles@lemmy.ca•Fork width tire width compatibility question
12·15 days ago115 is an odd fork width. I think you mean the fork is spec’d to fit a 15x110mm “Boost” hub? And the hub on your front wheel is 15x100mm.
If that’s the case, you can definitely adapt the hub to fit the fork. You need two axle spacers, a 15x110mm axle, and a spacer to shift the brake disc into the correct position. Problem Solvers actually sells the spacers in a kit…
For 6-bolt brake discs: https://problemsolversbike.com/products/booster-front-hub-spacing-kit-6-bolt
For center lock brake discs: https://problemsolversbike.com/products/booster-hub-spacing-kit-center-lock-front
The real question is: where tf did you get a free Flight Attendant fork?!
Edit: if you really want to go down the rabbit hole and design your own spacers, SRAM publishes everything you need in their frame fit specifications:

NonCredibleDefense@piefed.social•If I had a nickel for every time the Navy did this with a scope I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened twice.
4·17 days agoThe Navy said Yaste was relieved of duty “due to a loss of confidence in his ability to command the guided-missile destroyer” that’s currently deployed in the Gulf of Oman. The statement didn’t elaborate about why Yaste was replaced.
I wonder if he truly deserved it. It would be really lame if the justification was purely the bad PR from this photo. I imagine knowing your way around a rifle has nothing to do with running a boat, and vice versa.

5·17 days agoFor US Forest Service land, the USFS has an interactive online map that includes campgrounds. Though be aware that many of these are minimalist spots: no reservations, no running water or electricity, just a flat place to pitch a tent and a communal vault toilet.

History Memes@piefed.social•Ibn Khaldun spittin' straight facts tho
16·21 days agoEven when I have tried to put myself in a creationist’s shoes, creationism never made sense to me. Why limit God’s creative scope to a one-and-done event? Certainly it’s conceivable that He might produce complex, dynamic systems that are difficult for us to model, let alone understand. And He might have made design decisions for reasons that are not obvious to our limited intellects. I feel like a religious person would be doing honor to their God by doing science, exploring and learning, and taking the time to be awestruck at the things they discover.

11·24 days agoWhat?
Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for the explanation. I was only familiar with closed bolt designs.
The gun fires from an open bolt
How does that work? I found multiple articles that casually say the same thing, but I haven’t been able to find any diagrams or videos explaining it. I thought a fundamental function of a bolt is to be closed, securing the ammunition in the chamber, at the time it is fired.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why does most American's give shit to the French when if not for them we would have lost the revolution?
9·26 days agoDo most Americans give the French shit? I think most Americans don’t care one way or another TBH. Our country is famously self-centered and unaware of the rest of the world.
I do give my French friend a hard time sometimes, but it’s all in good fun. He does the same to me. I certainly do not look down upon him or his country.
The minority of Americans who do sincerely talk down about the French are ignorant and shitty, though.





















Don’t tell the British. They might get ideas of their own.
