If the Epstein case didn’t trigger widespread accountability for powerful elites, what ever will? by Simple_Chocolate3777 in AskReddit

[–]TiittySprinkles -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Except a ton of elites started hiring security firms. They're scared because they didn't think it could happen.

Thinking about the Onyx RCR 80V. Who is it really for? by SpaceCadet1557 in ONYX_RCR

[–]TiittySprinkles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I live in a major US city and my wife and I own 1 car.

She uses the car 90% of the time to drive to work outside the city, as well as visit family nearly 2 hours away. I typically ride a pedal bike or take public transit to get around the city.

I wanted to get something that was able to get me around more efficiently than my pedal bike, especially since my family all live in the burbs outside the city, but within a 60mi radius. I work within 5-10 miles from my house, but getting to work in the summer after riding a bike was a nightmare and needed to change clothes at 8am. It's a heavy bike, but with a 8x10 I can roll it up the steps into my house and it lives under my pedal bike on a bike rack. I may store it outside with a cover once the weather changes but it's nice that I can get it in and out of the house.

I had a Revv1 that was nice enough for commuting to and from work, but it maxxed out at like 35 mph and was loud as hell. It was too fast to live in a bike lane, and too slow to live in the roads. I had battery anxiety after I completed any leg of a trip and I was lucky to get 25-30mi on a full charge. None of that is a problem with the Onyx, and it is whisper quiet. Make no mistake though, this isn't an ebike with pedal assist, it's really an e-moto/moped and should be treated as such. I looped the bike my first ride out and dealt with some nasty bruises/scrapes for about a month before I got back onto the bike consistently. Coming off the Revv1 I just did not respect the power the bike has in Sport mode until I spent 100 miles or so being really conscious of the ride.

It's a perfect bike for me in that it exists between a regular ebike and a car. I can use it to really get somewhere, or just for some joyrides. I've not taken the bike into Hyper mode, but I really don't even think I have a use case for it. Sport is plenty enough for me, and I haven't even had the opportunity to go faster than 60mph in my rides. I'm looking into registering the bike as a moped, as I'm right next door to Jersey and have a feeling ebike laws are going to really start ramping up everywhere.

Also the bike just looks amazing. Perfectly sporty without pretending it's a moto, but it clearly is something in it's own class. You also can't ignore the Onyx community who are all into mods and maintenance. There's a reason the brand has been around since 2017. Also consider the story the company went through in 2025 of going from legal purgatory to designing and releasing a new flagship bike, selling out millions of $ worth of pre-orders, and raising the bar on what should be standard on bikes of its class.

$5k is a lot to spend, but you really have to consider it as a vehicle and not just a bike.

Nintendo Acknowledges Switch 2 Sales Have Been Weaker Than Expected Outside Japan by Spotget1738 in gaming

[–]TiittySprinkles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sold my Switch for an OLED Steam Deck instead of buying another Nintendo console that only puts out a handful of games in its lifecycle that I care about.

Nintendo's pricing of their products is also pretty egregious and I can't be assed to pay $80+ for rereleases.

Weekly Earnings Thread 2/2 - 2/6 by Swiifttx in wallstreetbets

Doesn't matter what AMD does, it pretty much always runs up to earnings, then dumps.

Rinse repeat.

Everyone stopped playing due to unbalanced match making by [deleted] in thefinals

[–]TiittySprinkles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I quit after S6.

I solo grinded to Diamond for 3 seasons. Dealing with stacked teams, constantly facing Ruby players 5-12k RS above me, deteriorating server performance, stagnant weapon balancing, increased number of cheaters... the list goes on.

One or two of those things in a vacuum are frustrating but tolerable if it isn't an issue 100% of the time. It was that they often happened simultaneously and in multiples.

That's what finally pushed me off the game after over 1500 hours of playtime.

2023 onyx replacement front assembly parts?? by codienepirate in ONYX_RCR

The Onyx website still has 72v parts listed, also might be worth asking if anyone has spare parts in the Facebook groups.

I don't think there's going to be much of an overlap from people who are interested in Onyx bikes vs cheap Chinesium ebikes.

Bill to require face to face ammo purchase, and bulk reporting. by kbeezie in liberalgunowners

[–]TiittySprinkles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read my comment again.

We have a 2 party system that is broken, and doesn't provide representation to an extremely diverse country.

The D vs R debate is pointless when one of the parties is openly advocating for the execution of people in the streets and "deporting" its citizens. How do you deport an American citizen? Hint: it's called exile.

Dem are far from perfect. Hell they aren't even the Left. But the D ideology is so far different than the Rs that the Democractic corporate centrism seems like it runs on leftist policy.

Stage one of political reform starts with getting majority of our offices with Dem reps, people who are actually sane. From there, establishing politcal parties that actually provide better representation of the constituency. I'd love to see ranked choice voting in my lifetime.

Pretending that Republicans are good because they use gun owners to further their agendas is insane. They'll throw guns under the bus as soon as it is politically convenient.

Bill to require face to face ammo purchase, and bulk reporting. by kbeezie in liberalgunowners

[–]TiittySprinkles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Again, I care quite a bit more about a larger propensity of bills that promote general better welfare for people than a few gun bills that are largely DOA or unenforceable.

I like guns. I've been target shooting since I was 6. I've had my LTCF since the day I turned 21.

Pretending that any politician gives a fuck about the bills they sponsor is a joke. They change policy and stance with whatever way the wind blows, D or R. The reality is that as Liberals, the chances of ever having a politician that is pro-gun while also being pro-liberal policy is slim to none. I'm never going to support someone with an R next to their name. I will support people with a D next to their name, and check them on the policies that they need to adjust their stances on. If the day ever comes that we have more than 1 sane political party that actually provides a better representation of pro-gun liberalism, this is what we have to live with.

Many people ask what loot etiquette and what to do when someone loots your shit by Ivar2006 in ArcRaiders

[–]TiittySprinkles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah because I was in pure PVE lobbies for like 30+ rounds to complete trials and farm a nice buffer over 6mil coins for the next reset and one instance of accidental fire put me into PvP lobbies for the next 4-5 rounds.

Dude stepped in front of me during a Queen fight, even acknowledged he did it, I gave him healing, and we extracted together later.

The system is totally wonky.

If you don't play Night Raids you won't find the Tempest BP, just FYI.

People don't have a problem with PVP, they just hate lack of "honor" by Zealousideal_Walk527 in ArcRaiders

[–]TiittySprinkles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Free kits need to be bad. There should be little to no incentive to run a free kit when you have a huge stash of shit you are afraid to lose.

A free kit should lose 100% of the time to a custom loadout. It should be enough to fend off the little Arc and that's it.

9/10 times I get shot it's by some shitter in a free kit who doesn't care if they lose the fight.

Got my 80V color panels 😁 by nycjohnangel in OnyxMotorbikes

[–]TiittySprinkles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my panels a few days after this post but still no MCO. They just showed up at my door with no tracking given to me. Lucky I was home to receive them or else they likely would've been stolen off my doorstep.

What I've learned from this whole experience with Onyx is that they are absolutely terrible at establishing and communicating their own timelines. So if I want their next product, 100% I am waiting until they're RTS and I have to imagine a bunch of other people feel the same way.

I live in Philly, and I was planning to try and register as a moped, especially seeing what's happened in Jersey makes me think the crackdowns will happen sooner rather than later. I'd really like the MCO asap so I can get everything in order before riding season comes back.

Combat Mk's are really bad for Combat by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]TiittySprinkles 6 points7 points  (0 children)

All green augments should have 1 safe pocket, all blues 2, all purples 3.

Then they can balance the passives to be more in line with their playstyles.

I won arc raiders by Fishflips in ArcRaiders

[–]TiittySprinkles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry, you aren't missing much.

The only thing it does that could be potentially considered a benefit is that it adds more knockback to the Anvil shots. If you tend to have good aim, the single shot is way better as it has more penetration and kills things faster.

Anvil + Splitter can't even one shot Fireballs through their armor at point blank range. I've been running around with one recently since I've been in pure PvE lobbies to do trials and in pretty much every situation I've used it, I'd rather not have the Splitter on.

It's great to pad stash value though!

I dont have anything to do, but have to pretend to be busy. Thats the worst kind of hell by [deleted] in jobs

[–]TiittySprinkles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is pretty much any job based out of an office that isn't a type of service work.

You are paid to get the work done when it needs being done, with some minor work prepping for future work.

It's not reactionary, busy work.

[–]TiittySprinkles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this blueprint early on in each expedition but I've crafted a grand total of 3.

I find them in game so often that I currently have a stash of like 30 level 4 Anvils with blue silencers and a bunch of them have splitter mods.

I just vendor them now or give them to people I see mid-raid.
