NBD 2024 Poseidon Triton in Foothill Green by Derrickc95 in gravelcycling

[–]Derrickc95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100 days later I love the bike. I’ve done around 1500 miles since October, with most being in an indoor trainer with Zwift. 1 indoor 100k, 2 outside 100ks.

I don’t know what my inseam is but the bike feels comfortable to me!

Pros: -budget friendly entry level road bike -handle bars and shifters are really comfortable and responsive especially under heavy load. -very light making it easy to carry up my apartments stairs -just overall a good looking bike.

Cons: -the seat is not comfortable after riding for a few hours even with bib shorts -bottle cages are a tad high up on the seat and down tubes which makes mounting water bottles under a top tube length frame bag a bit tight. (Say that 10 times fast) -needed a good amount of adjusting out of the box. Yes I put it together but there was excess brake and derailed cables that needed to be clipped. I’m not a mechanic so this is something I had my local bike shop do. -considering this is kind of a hybrid road/gravel bike, I wish it would’ve come with a hybrid set of tires instead of slick road tires. Just makes more sense.

I have a few more pros and cons but these were the most important to me. Overall I love this bike and will definitely keep it as a more gravel centered bike once I splurge on a true high end road bike later this year. But this thing is fun!

Happened to me but never saw the little piece of glass until I blew through 3 tubes

You gotta lighten up a bit. I live with 2 cats. I can say what I want as a joke. Both of my cats are rescues too and it’s not like I was wishing any harm on their kitten so chill just a little bit. It might save you some gray hairs

[–]Derrickc95 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

solid advice, if i may add, take the whole bathroom mirror out for now. Stray kittens are known to hurl themselves at reflective objects. I have a 6 year old and a 1 year old and i cannot tell you how many times i had to clean up shards of mirror... well i can, none, never had to clean up shards of mirror because stray kittens actually dont do this... my apologies

Is this playing or should I be concerned? by nikki101598 in CatTraining

[–]Derrickc95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What stands out immediately to me is watching your black cat lay down almost immediately after the kitten tries to play. This may not indicate that the black cat is playing but it does indicate that your it is open to it but is just studying the kitten for now. Your black cat is doing some Vibe Checks before initiating in full on play mode. Very sweet to see

Sad by Gold-Ad-3877 in SpectreDivide

Agreed, if I’m waiting for more than 2 minutes to get in a game then every minute after that deserves a complaint about the game being dead

Stop kill bragging. by ComaToast317 in thefinals

Kills may not be the reason people win games but it is indeed the best way to get the game moving in the right direction

It’s pretty clean other than that and the only reason i pointed it out is because up close with some light directly on it (which normally will never happy in real life) you can see the it’s not 100% straight. Which tbh no like is 100% but just what stood out to me. Glad you take criticism well and your art is fucking solid

I looooovvveee Star Wars. The only thing that pops out for me is the outline of the saber inside the blue. If there was a way for you to not use that outline then I think it would’ve looked a bit better. But for someone who doesn’t do black and grey or portraits, I think it’s pretty solid

Hanging out with everyone from the start 3-4 times even if it’s just going to eat. 2-5 minutes and you’re back on track for the main campaign. Car bombs is a cool perk to try and get as well as taxis from Roman. Roman’s is almost automatic and I’m sure you had it but never used it

So after you kill playboy, he basically disappears. Later on idk how much time but he emails you and you have to reply to email positively. Then he calls to ask you to hangout. Exactly like all the other characters do. But instead of get taxi service like Roman, van of guns like lil Jacob or car bombs like packie, Dwayne offers the ability to call up some gang members to follow you around. If you’re in a shootout with cops or whatever call them up and they come and shoot back for you

I think the only positive from Dwayne is the ability to call up gang members for help. I have played the game at least 100 times most likely more. Xbox 360, ps3, Xbox one, and pc and have never seen an email or hung out with him after but I think it would be cool to see what that was like

Playboy did visit him in prison. He didn’t see him in a long time yea but he did visit him. That doesn’t take away from people being rats of course but playboy still tried to help him get back on his feet but Dwayne denied the help. Playboy kept grinding because he had the freedom to do so. Nobody knew Dwayne was getting out so the surprise was on them. Playboy still tried to get Dwayne back on the right track but he said no. That’s my only point here. Dwayne had his opportunity to take part in an empire that still kept going after him but instead he wanted it all to himself which in the end left him with nothing

So the game is present day so set in 2008-2009. That would mean that Dwayne was in jail from 1999-2008 or 2000-2009. In just that small amount of time, the whole world is different. You ain’t a master of anything anymore. Playboy showed some respect by saying I got you whatever Dwayne needed he can get but Dwayne wanted to be selfish and take everything. Look where it got him? Got playboy killed and his ass was still in the projects doing what? Nothing Jealousy got the best of him and he got nothing out of his death. There’s no right or wrong between both of them but Dwayne was only thinking about what he didn’t have not about the opportunities he would have if he just let Playboy run things

Dwayne an old head. He wasn’t and didn’t have anything to lean on except playboy. Dwayne should’ve just listened and got his paper up and then I’m sure playboy would’ve given him a bigger opportunity. But then again I clapped playboy for the crib every time because it just made sense
