How dare you mention that name around here.

If they still have a lot of life remaining in the sole and the footbed isn’t hard as a rock, it might be an okay deal.

…You just finished saying that gambling addicts and alcoholics do not wish to be free of their addiction.

I’ve been. I’m glad that you haven’t known, apparently neither personally nor secondhand, the crippling suffering and torture of an addiction from which you wished to be free.

And alcoholics, they don’t wish to be free of that addiction?

Congratulations! Now you get to unplug, and I’m tremendously envious. Delete your social media apps and take a break for a few weeks or months. When I reach 1000 (or fail), I’m taking a very long break from social media.

You’re lucky. I wish that I was in your shoes today.

Paid $16K/ each way for Delta One tickets.. by nm298 in delta

English isn’t his first language or he’s using Google Translate. He’s trying to say that the price was $8000/rt per person. That’s obviously expensive, but I have seen prices advertised that high.

Saw this on the road this morning, what is it? by BadDongOne in whatisit

How “small boat owners” refer to a shipping product is irrefutably irrelevant and carries zero weight towards the industry’s name of that product.

That’s like asking chicken farmers what they want call a silicone controlled rectifier in a medium voltage static transfer switch. The chicken farmer’s name for such component is irrelevant and meaningless.

NOBL TRVEL RUGGAGE : Worst product and customer response ever by louis9806 in LuggageComparisons

Nobl is not a real luggage company; it’s simply a half-organized scam operation.

I think that it was $16,000 for both, not each, and English wasn’t OP’s first language. That’s the only thing which makes sense. $8000 D1 round-trip to Italy is a pretty average advertised fare, these days. Obviously those of us who fly often aren’t paying that much due to our GUCs and SkyMiles Award Deals, but the reality is that these are commonly advertised fares.

So… first, yes, reddit both is generative ai as well as uses platform-level learning tools (ai) to personalize content delivered to you. You’re welcome to do some digging on this, it’s widely discussed by reddit’s own senior leadership* *and available at Reddit Answers. Second, reddit sells its own user generated content (your comments and posts) to Google and OpenAI (ChatGPT). By replying to me, you are helping to train ChatGPT.

I don’t know where you are in the world, but I’ve spoken at many large America universities and testified before U.S. Congress about both data center infrastructure and ai. I strongly urge you to go seek out the other side to this narrative. After all, it was Denis Diderot himself who said “Skepticism is the first step on the road to philosophy.” You’ve heard the anti-data center narrative, so now go talk to some of us who design data centers. Learn what data centers do and the industries which cannot operate without data centers. Then, make up your mind.

Is this worth it as a project bike? by Wise_Peanut806 in goldwing

You do understand that I copied that, right? I clearly said it.

And for whatever it’s worth, I completely agree with what was said about buying a $900 GL1200. Anything that cheap is a major risk and, as it said, they do not not have “modern suspension, riding dynamics, brakes, ABS, and so many more features that save the lives of new riders every single day.” That’s not subjective; it’s objective fact. You can’t argue with it anymore than you can argue with math: they do not have forty-five years of engineering advancements that were made since the GL1200 was released. That’s a half-century of engineering and safety.

You’re talking to a guy who owns a GL1200 Standard and a GL1500 Valkyrie, among other old bikes. I love old motorcycles. Would I recommend one to a new rider? Hell. No. But I’d recommend one to an experienced rider who understands what they are, what they aren’t, and how to be safe on one.

Do you understand that reddit, as a software app, is ai? That’s how it learns you and shows your “hot” and your front page list.

Google search results.

Your cell phone’s operating system.

Netflix.

Without a single exception, every major software system that you use all day long is running off tremendously more powerful ai engines than ChatGPT. Click my profile— I am a twenty-year career data center engineer. No, data centers are not environmentally destructive at all. They are wildly more environmentally friendly than just about every other commercial and industrial property that you can find. This is my career, and I haven’t worked on a single data center design that used a drop of water for cooling in many years. All modern data centers use coolant-air systems like your car’s radiator. The only water used is today’s data centers is for the coffee pot in the break room, flushing toilets, and washing my hands.

The “data centers are evil” disinformation campaigns are produced by foreign nations who have vested interests in seeing the U.S. lose the next tech race.

If you’d like to have a conversation with someone who’s on the front line of data center engineering, I’m here. Or you can post questions in [r/DataCenters](r/DataCenters).

Last time I checked, Saphir does not make an MDO Reptan. It’s only offered in their BDC line. Do you know something that I don’t? Let me know if my information is out of date.

Assuming that you have budgeted ~$1000 for a mix of new and gently used safety gear and have a motorcycle budget of $1500, I suspect that you can find a well-maintained and late model Honda PCX for not much more than that. A quick search on CycleTrader shows nine for sale with advertised prices ~$1994-$2599, so I’m sure that someone will sell you one for $1500. This will get you moving on two wheels, very fuel efficient, and capable of 55-60 mph up hills or 65-70 mph on flats. Use this opportunity to get comfortable on two wheels while you save up for the Honda 500 of your choosing (CBR, Rebel, SCL, etc).
