Nothing wrong with that...

Same happened to me. Then when posting I chose "unknown" or whatever language (not English) and it worked.

1. Yes, some extreme shocks can harm mechanical watches.
2. No, I don't know how much. I'm sure there are some people out there who've done some sort of calculations. But I feel like what we see and hear are just estimates, speculation, anectodal bias, or other shoddy evidence (maybe check Watchuseek). Just like the Reddit pic you sent -- it shows beat up gears from a chronograph with a warning about golfing. Down the post, the OP says he's a watchmaker and that watch came in from someone who claimed that they wore it playing golf. But guess what? There was also rust on the parts. The OP said "oh, that was due to a bad seal, not related to shock". So how are we supposed to believe OP's opinion that the teeth were damaged due to shock but that other evidence of damage was due to a separate cause, that ALSO didn't cause or contribute to the teeth and gear damage? Shoddy arguments to me. And sports watches were made to be worn while doing sports--they were worn that way before the advent of modern quartz watches and G-Shocks. But of course they're probably not the ideal watch to wear, since we have quartz watches that can deal with shock better.
3. Yes, modern watches have some form of shock protection. How much really does depend on the watch.
4. Would I wear a mechanical watch while biking? I guess it depends. It depends on the quality of the watch (in some ways, a higher quality sports/dive watch should withhstand shock better, because it's going to have more shock absorption built in, but on the other hand, if your watch is expensive, are you really going to put it in a risky situation?), it depends on how bad your roads are, really, and it depends on the cost.
5. Let's just say this-- I bike commuted for about a year, and I almost always wore a mechanical watch. I went over potholes, and all of my watches survived. BUT, (a) I mostly wear dive-style watches, even to work, and (b) none of my watches cost more than $1000. So I'm willing to take those risks.

TL;dr-- yes, shocks might cause harm to mechanical watches. The amount of shock that can cause harm, and the risk of harm, are hard to calculate. Whether you decide to wear a mechanical watch while biking is a decision you have to make based upon your risk tolerance.

Maybe you F'dU, but I think you were the stars of the party.

Ah ha, I was trying to do the short url (!utah@kbin.social), and that wasn't working. Thanks!

So I'm looking for a magazine that I know is on kbin, that I want to subscribe from here. I've tried typing in the magazine name in the address bar (lemmy.world/c/Utah@kbin.social), I've tried searching in the "communities" search, and I'm just not finding it and getting errors. Direct linking works, but I then I can only subscribe if I have an account on kbin. Help?

SBC also voted to affirm the explusions of two churches, including Saddleback Church, which was founded by highly respected author Rick Warren and is one of the largest baptist churches in the country. They claim nearly 25,000 people in weekly attendance. And Warren's books, including "The Purpose-Driven Life," are used all over, including in my then-relatively liberal Lutheran church. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saddleback_Church

They were expelled because a woman acted as a youth pastor.

Wow. That's like kicking the Yankees out of MLB because the league thinks that players should be able to have long hair.

The social media provider must "verify, using a commercially reasonable method" the person's identity and the relationship to the minor.

You cam do that through credit card probably.

Weird. Works for me in Jerboa. What's the crash?

However for them, it’s not a big deal as the get the following benefits

All ~~undesirable~~ sane and productive users leave for fidiverse or other reddit alternatives. The remaining users will be ~~tame~~ batshit crazy like the users of FB, Instagram, posting conspiracy theories, lies, flames and other content that gets people riled up, but results in more eyes and more clicks. Which destroys Reddit as we know it, but still generates the income that will appeal to investors in an IPO

FTFY.

You could say he was a pioneer.

There's a joke about attracting people who like working pipes and experiencing organs that I'm sure you've told a thousand times.... Though I don't know a ton about pipe organ-only music outside of the common Bach stuff, my favorite classical piece is Saint-Saens' Third Symphony, and I really like Percy Grainger's "The Power of Rome and the Christian Heart" (though the more I learn about him, the more I'm not sure I can like Percy Grainger...). I'll subscribe! Good luck with your community!
