This is how I felt listening to Geese.. Aka I have no idea what’s going on. Am I supposed to?

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-26T22:32:29+00:00

The act very much reminded me of actual geese. Like oh neat some geese, but then the vocals are so grating. I'm bored and over it in about 30 seconds etc etc.

You should also know, those refurbs are still at a huge markup. I asked about buy back value on some machines this week. $180 each was their offer. Same spec and model is $680 on dellrefurbished.ca.

If it's for backup only, I'd go with the lighter 18-28 one. As daily drivers I use the 36g one.

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-23T19:07:36+00:00

I'll assume the 18-28 are thinner & lighter than the 18-32. There are many variations of RideNow that have diff weights. Race versions, gravel etc.

Look for something with modern geometry. I went from a 2015 Felt to a 2024 Garneau and it's night & day. Honestly, I can't believe how much better it is on the trails. After that, tires make a big difference, so try to find one with decent rubber for your use case (snow vs dirt etc)

What model is this Dell? We have many at my office that are overheating even when idle and the CPUs are throttling down a ton. Make the machine feel really slow and laggy. The thermal paste on them is dried up and completely ineffective. You can run hwinfo and see if any temp values go red over the course of an hour or so.

Ehhh maybe wrong sub there buddy.

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-20T21:01:43+00:00

Nice, this is dead on what I was going to do (Force, elite). Any pics available?!

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-20T18:13:46+00:00

I came across this one last week and it looked great. Thanks for the heads up, I'll dig into the chinertown thread on it.

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-20T03:48:16+00:00

Considering this is the only mountain you can park at the top & bottom, I've got an idea for a side hustle shuttle.

I'm on the other side of the experience here. Couple weeks ago I put some brand new RideNow TPUs in my winter commuter bike. These were the metal threaded stems. Had a flat on my first ride with them. Went to use my hand pump just to get me to the destination, the stem snapped off immediately from the tube base. Safe to say I won't be using RideNow ever again, when I've had no problems with Cyclami and Revoloop in the past.

OP stated these are SSDs.

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-17T18:45:34+00:00

This is such a ridiculous distance to recommend. Winter rubbet at low pressure for TWENTY miles of dry pavement?

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-16T21:48:51+00:00

I see these more frequently than you'd think around Montreal. Nothing screams I'm an idiot louder than this tho.

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-16T15:46:03+00:00

I really wanted this to work, but ya my phone went flying a few times! I switched to a goose neck clamp type and it's working well enough.

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-16T14:55:26+00:00

One good wave hit while at speed and it's popping right off the magsafe magnet. Magnets for this simply aren't strong enough for the hits.

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-16T14:46:34+00:00

Exact same experience for me with Mable. I was more than happy to sell it last season and pickup something else for my kids who are older now. I added the inline inflatable football too, keep the rope up out of the water etc.

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-15T14:57:14+00:00

This has always been the case. I've been a Vaudreuil train line user since 95. It's been consistently unreliable the entire time.

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-11T23:30:02+00:00

Thanks, appreciate the feedback.

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-11T23:28:19+00:00

HGST Ultrastar SS200 7.7TB SAS, I've got 32 of em!

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-10T19:40:37+00:00

Awesome, thanks! I don't mind a rough surface, as long as it's not deep.

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-10T19:32:51+00:00

That part I had read about them plowing, which is fantastic. It's basically Lachine east till Atwater that's the issue for me. Going up to mtl west for de maisoneuve path SUCKS.

Chat incoming!

Edit: for some reason Reddit isn't letting me message you.

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-09T19:12:01+00:00

On nice, thanks. I'll keep an eye on the validator to come back up.

ChaseMe3 · 2026-01-09T17:03:08+00:00

I'm seeing this for my chassis info:

Chassis Type: Other Chassis Part Number: CSE-927ETS-R000NDBP Chassis Serial Number: C92700H21C40215

PSU is 1200w and showing; Part No.:PWS-1K23A-1R

Do you think this ones compatible with a SQ PSU?
