To display the chain. Just search for used bicycles on some online marketplace and you'll see the majority of them are shown with the chain facing towards the camera.

Well, the drive system, not the chain specifically but yes.

It's actually much less complicated that even that. Consider that there are only two possible sides to show, and one of the sides has the drivetrain on it, whereas the other has basically nothing of importance. It's not much of a choice at all.

Just for the record: why is the chain always on that side? The whole concept of a bicycle works equally well if the thing were mirrored.

Can we have left-chained bicycles, please? (if nothing else, just for the novelty / fun aspect)

It’s less scary because when an LLM messes up, you can roll back its changes, which is much easier to do in NixOS, as opposed to other Linux distros where you have to take filesystem snapshots.

I realized there was a puzzle about halfway through the movie. But there is no way I'm spending another 56min just to complete the challenge.

It's a good movie, though. For anyone who's interested: https://maraoz.com/the-secret-of-psalm-46-transcript/

At least your game didn't crash forcing you to redo the section.

The point I'm making the game doesn't respect my time. Why should I respect it back?

The question this puzzle is asking you is "why do you feel the need to complete this game?" In this sense it is a sand mandala. If you don't have time to make one, that's totally fine, but saying that "sand mandalas don't respect my time" misses the point entirely.

Tbe sand mandala is free. I (presumably) paid money for The Witness.
