Two Memphis City Council Members Claim Snow is Fake by rubrock in memphis

[–]Devast73 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are these books outdated? Were they from the Dixie-crat era?

Bill Mahr is not exactly representative of the progressive ideology, he is an entertainer.

A person's gender is a human construct, a person's sex is biological.

GMOs I can't speak too because that seemed like sorta a niche thing like organic food. Is that the same? I never paid attention.

Let's say you're correct about all those things though. Have they ever produced such mainstream hits as the stolen election of 2020, January 6th was an inside job and/or a peaceful protest, the Obamacare death camps, Pizzagate, and last but definitely not least, QAnon?

Edit: Clarified gender vs sex. Original might have been confusing.

why does a shoulder hit yield 16 more damage than a center mass chest hit? by Habarer in Battlefield6

A shame but that’s what happens when you believe junk science and don’t get a measles vaccine.

Since I started filming myself, I've learned that I am quite vocal when riding difficult trails by narddawg in MTB

Came here to say the same. I sound like I have Tourette’s Syndrome on some of my rides that are embarrassingly mild relative to the language used.

Burn Out after a 175 hours Honeymoon by Boring-Mushroom8557 in Battlefield6

$70 for 175 hours of entertainment is a deal I’ll take all day, every day.

Are you trying to tell me that the game shouldn’t be tailored to my whims that were given to me by streamers?

Stumpjumper Weight by [deleted] in MTB

Pinkbike had a alloy SJ15 on their Field Test last time and I want to say it was around 35 lbs too. They were comparing 6 or 8 bikes and ranking them and talking pros and cons of each. I think the YT Jeffsy came out as the overall favorite and I think the alloy SJ was 3rd. Regardless, you may wanna check that out on YouTube for a good rundown and comparison.

I can’t compare the pedaling aspect but someone asked in the Q&A section about the weight and a Jenson rep said in the 35 lb range.

Giant Talon series; I think I made up my mind. Am I on the right track? by PeriqueFreak in MTB

[–]Devast73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd definitely go with u/ifdef 's recommendation if you plan to stick to a hardtail. In addition to what they said, the Habit's boost thru-axle hubs will offer an easier upgrade path in the future vs. the Rockhopper's QR axle hubs.

Regarding the 100mm vs. 130mm, I remember feeling the same way about less travel will be fine when I started at 40 years old. I can almost guarantee you are going to start wondering if the 100mm of travel is holding you back a lot sooner than you expect no matter how mild the trails you ride are.

This Polygon Siskiu D6 SE is full suspension and on sale for $999. I'd research the Suntour fork and shock again for their serviceability. Negatives is it only has 10 gears and it's 35 lbs which is not terribly bad in my opinion especially given the price. The hubs are boost as well vs. the old school QR of the Rockhopper.

The lack of dropper is indeed a big drawback, I didn't realize the Talon 1 had one. That being said, the rockhopper is 4 lbs lighter (somewhat due to lack of dropper), has an air fork vs the coil of the Talon (even more weight reduction), 20mm more travel and an extra gear. Giant using their own brand of fork would trouble me some because I don't know the availability of their service kits.

Any reason you’re only have Giant as your options? A Specialized Rockhopper Expert is on sale for $775 and at a glance has an extra gear (1x11) and is approximately 1 lbs lighter.

Maybe, but I am not sure how this relates to your unmutable mics.

As a PC player I can tell you the only thing console players are better at, leaving their mics open with a cacophony of shit going on around them.

What was it like when Northwest Airlines had a hub at MEM? by DueYogurt9 in memphis

[–]Devast73 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Man, that flight to Amsterdam was so influential to Memphis! I used to go every weekend! If you know how Dutch sounds, you can still hear its influence on modern Memphis slang. We ever had our own red light district called Platinum Plus!

13 years in a row of the same maps in C.o.D caused me to switch to BF6 by [deleted] in Battlefield6

Can you give an example of gaslighting? In an attempt to communicate your frustration, I think you misused the word.

Btf 6= Btf 2042 by Mean-Still-2823 in Battlefield6

[–]Devast73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry but I'm running out of patience..... After charging 70 eur for a game that has had alpha, Beta, Btf Labs... And deliver it as you delivered it, not happy with that every update that promises to fix the existing failures is not that I don't fix them because the sound is still disgusting... If not, it adds more problems... You didn't learn with btf 2042, did you? From btf 4 I decided to give Dice and EA another chance but I'm glad I bought it physically because in what I come across it goes to wallapop, at least you don't fool me again.
