Fun fact, it was so hot yesterday that the motor on my ebike overheated while I was cycling home... up a hill. So, yeah, yesterday, I inadvertently learnt about "limp mode".
For your bike to suddenly throttle halfway up a hill is both disconcerting and exhausting.
Thankfully, the motor is working fine this morning, but lesson learnt; my bike is now parked in my air-conditioned lab.

I bought this little fan as it was on Prime Day sale. It's a very good fan for its size (just avoid the pink-coloured one, nudge-wink).
What amuses me is the thought process that went into creating it.... OK, it's a fan, but can we make it more? Well, we put power in, so how about we take it out? Boom! We'll make it a portable charger, too. Nah, that's still not multifunctional enough. People like torches, right? Boom! Now it's a torch, too! Lol.
"Planet-heating pollution tripled the death toll from the 'quietly devastating' heatwave that seared Europe at the end of June, early analysis covering a dozen cities has found, as experts said the worsening health crisis is being overlooked."
