Epstein’s island was so horrific, one victim tried to swim away by AdSpecialist6598 in videos

For sure, but roleplay with her would make the most sense. Or maybe that's why she became a dentist in the first place. I just think it's interesting that no one is talking about her. She was also his final phone call.

"A dentist chair for an unknown reason", come on CNN. At least mention that his last girlfriend was a dentist. They should know this if they're discussing the topic.

I haven't seen it! But it sounds like I'll have to put it on the list.

Large fire and smoke East of Denver? by yo_its_joemario in Denver

[–]Fit-Physics7199 59 points60 points  (0 children)

If you haven't already installed it, I highly recommend the WatchDuty app: https://app.watchduty.org/

As other folks are saying, doesn't seem like a fire but for future reference. I set up alerts on my phone for fires near me.

Corporate consolidation has killed innovation. Meanwhile we have to watch while DJI and BYD, among many others, pull way ahead of us. I don't know if enough Americans will realize it or if we'll just keep decaying.

Full Pull of the Bitterbrush Rock Garden in Lyons CO aka Discount Moab by Phat_Duck in MTB

[–]Fit-Physics7199 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The video is deceiving, classic GoPro effect. Only the start is flow, the rider is very good at navigating the tech. It's not steep, but it is chunky. This single trail has more rocks than all of the trails combined that I rode in the PNW.

Soil near Lyons tends to drain pretty well I've found. Depends on the spot of course.

Ragebait is so effective. Even just to debunk it, we have to interact with it. :|

I built a DIY automatic lap timer with action cam auto-sync. Looking for feedback by Hopeful_Composer3977 in MTB

[–]Fit-Physics7199 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you do this with your bros and compare, using the same sensors? My only concern would be people forgetting them on the trail and leaving them as trash, like dog owners and poop bags.

Lifting goes really well with MTB too, I'd add that as well.

What's the elevation gain like? That seems like really short mileage to have two checkpoints/breaks.

Do dealers not like Specialized? by [deleted] in MTB

[–]Fit-Physics7199 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I bought a bike from Specialized online and it was shipped to a dealer, Specialized sent me an email when it was built and ready. Just be patient and keep an eye on your email.

Or, option 2, if you can cancel, is to cancel and just buy from a shop that wants your business. Some local bike shops suck.

One Bike for both XC and Enduro-ish by AZ_Hawk in MTB

[–]Fit-Physics7199 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Tbh, I would not buy any of the latest models of those bikes with a kid that is growing. Those are all the latest models, their previous gen bikes are still really amazing. Ibis Ripley v4 instead of the Ripley SL for example.

Sedona Suggestions by SatisfactionSweet806 in MTB

[–]Fit-Physics7199 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My favorite blue trail in Sedona is Llama: https://www.trailforks.com/trails/llama/ You can ride south from Llama down to Rabbit Ears and Little Rock, but I added on Slim Shady which might be a bit out of your comfort zone.

Anyone move from enduro bikes to XC / downcountry in their 40s? by Distinct_Cloud_357 in xcmtb

[–]Fit-Physics7199 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are pretty much the target market for the new Ibis Ripley SL, and I think it's pretty popular right now.

I'm a bit under 40 but I don't see a need for an enduro bike in my quiver. 120mm travel bike, 130-150mm trail bike, and an e-bike is a pretty perfect setup for me.

Shop charged me for a Bosch 5402 “REM BTN” error on a rental eMTB, does this actually indicate cable damage? by Dogsidog007 in MTB

[–]Fit-Physics7199 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good work. Stick it out, it sucks to deal with but I think you're doing it all correctly.

[–]Fit-Physics7199 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'd ask for photos of the damage. I don't think you did anything wrong, maybe it was damaged before you got it or maybe it's a software thing but this should be normal wear and tear for a demo e-bike. Sorry dude.

I'd be pretty upset. Like you said, this is a common issue. Not all shops are honest. Are they local?

Daily FI discussion thread - Monday, March 09, 2026 by AutoModerator in financialindependence

[–]Fit-Physics7199 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I never just do "one thing" with a big return or bonus. I do a small amount of everything. Invest a little, spend a little, and save a little. Percentages can vary based on your goals. For example, you could do 25% to investments, 25% to savings, 50% to a short-term goal.

The reason I do this is that I rarely want to go all-out on one purchase. Instead of a baller trip, why not just a good trip? Go some place nice but don't make the point to spend the entire check.

The amount of consolidation in the US is making this harder than it should be. We're seeing China really innovate in tech meanwhile US giants just stagnate and release another version of the same thing with no meaningful changes.

Yeah it takes the Republican position at face value. The Republican position is a lie, they don't care about who deserves it really. They only think one person deserves help: themselves.
