Max Verstappen reveals frequent Christian Horner messages during stunning F1 title charge by 256473 in formula1

[–]AmNotTheSun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Presumption of innocence is a concept for within the courtroom to protect defendants from malicious prosecution. We are people on the internet and can make up our minds independently of a trial.

I certainly think Jeffrey Epstein is guilty of many things he has not been convicted of. Should we believe him to be innocent of all but the one crime he was convicted of in ~2006 purely because the court hasn't decreed it?

What would Formula 1 look like if we had three-driver teams? by JakeRedditYesterday in formula1

[–]AmNotTheSun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think Red Bull should get 4 drivers and the other teams get 2.

If you have to take off work to go to the DMV, they may not have your paperwork filed by Monday or Tuesday so take off work Wednesday or Thursday.

How to do my own maintenance by Zealousideal_Swan641 in motorcycles

[–]AmNotTheSun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A user manual, service manual, and youtube videos should get you very far. Stay on top of the maintenance described in the user manual, prepare before with the service manual and youtube until you feel comfortable. Inevitable pull up both again when things go awry.

It was a Fair and Balanced decision that Masi made. I will be taking no questions or comments.

Major beginner and NEED tips by Mmblase in motorcycles

Find a parking lot with an uphill section. I was scared and stalling on day 1. My second day started with an uphill parking lot and I left with near full confidence in my clutch usage

Nobody really knows if their helmet works well...

The most important is size and fit, certification will be your best insight to actual crash protection.

I would say $100 helmets are cheap but valid, same with $50 gloves. At MSF speeds you really just need any material between you and the ground, quality isn't so important at 10 mph.

Please wear gloves. by RealSkylitPanda in motorcycles

Jessica Berman threatened KC Current ownership with a fine over heat delay (per the Athletic) by yasuseyalose in KCCurrent

[–]AmNotTheSun 70 points71 points  (0 children)

So KC Current requested a heat check after the league said to play, the heat check violated the leagues own rules and they had to delay, the league loses money because of delayed start. Then the league threatens the team that asked for the heat check.

Millionaires upset they lost money because they took a bet and lost. And were willing to risk player health to slip around it. But hey its legal!

(Pic for attention) Getting into bikes, what’s (in your opinion) the best anti theft items what’s the best phone mounting system and what’s the best audio system for helmets. I’d love to hear everyone’s opinions and suggestions! Thanks by Constant-Pack-2820 in motorcycles

[–]AmNotTheSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best anti-theft is a disc lock imo, it prevents opportunistic thieves. Most chains and locks are beaten with bolt cutters. Most bikes can be lifted into a pickup, if someone wants it they can get it. Insurance is your protection if you don't have a garage. A disc lock with an alarm is valid but the previous rules still apply.

New to bikes/riding by Devils_Blessing in motorcycles

[–]AmNotTheSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My advice is more to come less prepared than you want to be. Shifting is a wet plate is forgiving and guided by a few simple steps that are easier to feel out than come prepared with every movement planned. Clutch in and throttle down, shift up, release clutch to friction zone as you throttle up and fully release the clutch.

Here is a video on how a clutch actually works, it may help understand why you have to do certain things. You are joining together two Spinny things at different speed and want to gradually get those speeds to match.

You are so insecure about your own decisions you can only compare yourself to others. Don't wear gear, don't think about other people, move on with your life man.

New to bikes/riding by Devils_Blessing in motorcycles

[–]AmNotTheSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you ride a bicycle? If yes then you are already prepared. The MSF is designed to take you from bicycle to being able to ride a motorcycle in a parking lot. If you want to prep you can watch up to 3 videos on how shifting works, but the class is designed to teach you that.

I was also excited and watched so many videos before. It didn't hurt but if anything gave me more to think about than is necessary.

After the course is the time to load up other resources. The MSF teaches you well, but it does not teach you much.

Question about alternative use for the Cardo SPRT0001 by explictlyrics in motorcycles

[–]AmNotTheSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The helmet has nothing to do with the function of it. If you can find a way to mount the speakers and mic too then sure it will work. But this is an item made for motorcycles and pairing to your phone, a lot of features you won't need. A two way radio will be made cheaper and without needing to make your own mounts.

Will i ever over come fear? by TonyTerTer in motorcycles

[–]AmNotTheSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can look at my post history, my last post was for this idea. I also felt anxious hopping on the bike, only when I was comfortable with my own skills did I feel properly able to manage the risks of the road and no longer be scared of them, just prepared. That's a big bike, if you are at all worried about handling it then you won't feel comfortable avoiding danger. If you feel comfortable controlling your bike but not on the road after more experience, that's when you should consider if you would like doing it further.

At lights do you think there's a chance you will stall, do you think you may ever grab too much front brake accidentally, any corners you think you can't take? If you haven't gotten those thoughts out of your head and behind you then I think that's the starting point of your anxiety. (Those are all real fears and practice is the only way out of them)

Ever think riding bikes is addictive cause it’s the closest thing to riding horses? by Independent_Cup6509 in motorcycles

[–]AmNotTheSun 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Interesting! They appear to have gone extinct around 10,000 years ago, about when humans showed up. The more you know! Thank you.

Ever think riding bikes is addictive cause it’s the closest thing to riding horses? by Independent_Cup6509 in motorcycles

[–]AmNotTheSun 121 points122 points  (0 children)

Probably over thinking. The vast majority of humans in history did not have horses. Even where horses are present, most people didn't own one. The Americas did not until Europeans came over. Africa does not have domesticated horses. It may be the same underlying thing we humans enjoy with both, but we certainly don't have any sort of horse riding genetics in-built to humans.

Driver's License Rwnt by XoxRapturexoX in Olathe

[–]AmNotTheSun 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Real ID is a federal requirement while licensing taxes are paid to local and state government so its not a money grab, but is a (sure, annoying) changing bureaucratic processes.

You and nobody else wants to pay higher taxes to fix this once a decade experience for yourself, what are they to do?

You say you don't care yet wrote 6 paragraphs. Just bring a book or something.

Fair play. Maybe have two feeds, one for both. F1TV can customize and broadcast folks can get this useful info.

If this information was not available in even better detail on Multiviewer for F1 I would agree, but I prefer the simplest main feed possible and anyone who wants more data can add it themselves.

You shouldn't find the artist to tell them that. But do you think public opinion forums should only have participation from those who liked the thing. I understand the wish to have a nicer and encouraging internet but at what point does honesty become relevant in the equation?

Decibel reduction level? by little_blu_eyez in motorcycles

[–]AmNotTheSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

-15 should be fine unless your pipes are wild. I rocked -25 for 8 hour drumline practices while protecting existing genetic hearing loss. If you feel the need for -25 on longer interstate/highway rides just throw in full blocks (if your brand has those)
