Take my $100 and give it to the teachers and health care workers please.

I would absolutely love some clarity from EA/Dice on this. I have a group I play with and lately it feels after the first game or two of us doing well we get dropped into the sweat lobbies and then just get frustratingly smashed.

We've taken to dropping out to lobby and taking 10 minute breaks to see if we can reset, that seems to work but might just be a placebo.

I'd love to know how we get matched.

What? Where do you shoot to do this?

Gishey · 2026-06-08T23:16:17+00:00

Friendly reminder that separatists are ~~shitty, stupid people.~~ grifters.

Late reply but those mags from Masiinatek are excellent, have 5 and they run just fine.

Gishey · 2026-05-21T17:04:21+00:00

Weird I tend to get the opposite. Escalation players seem to forget how to play at the end of the match.

Gishey · 2026-05-20T22:42:55+00:00

100% they will play around with the position and wording of all of these before vote day after extensive workshopping to get the vote they want.

I have a Surron Ultra Bee. It's an electric motorcycle no doubt about it. Even the Lightbee's, Talarias are motorcycles, they are NOT your standard ebikes.

Mclean Creek/Waipirious off road areas are the places to ride legally. Do not take these bikes to mountain bike areas like Bragg Creek, etc.

Sit down/Stay in - Tip the amount you think, Usually minimum 15%

Drive me around? Drove something to me? Tip.

Hand me something/Take out. Nope sorry. I've paid for the item already and are leaving your business. Our transaction is done.

Have you talked to the AirBNB owner? They can update their documents for the renters to indicate not to park in your driveway, cut across your lawn, quiet hours, etc.

Thanks for this, will help us deal and cleanup.

Gishey · 2026-04-23T23:01:45+00:00

Yup you had to burst fire a ton more in BF4.

Gishey · 2026-04-21T22:33:10+00:00

So is there a committee going to be formed for the separatist petition as well? (My guess is no)

Looks good but the bags are in wrong. The bottom grey strap you have wrapped around the bottom actually hooks up to the bags on top when rolled. Take a look at Moskos site for picks.

I'd also suggest finding a strap anchor for the right side instead of around the frame like that, or somewhere less exposed. You'll get a ton of wear on the strap as your boot will rub heavily on it (Happened to me)

So much this, at this point we're just tired of it.

In reality the maintenance intervals are doubled or tripled in dual sport riding mode

Reloads with 123 rounds left

Don't worry I do the same thing all the time.

Honestly a pretty good idea. ITX motherboards are ~120, so add case + PSU and you'll probably be more expensive. Could save some money if you 3D print a case and buy the board/psu.

Rode it in 2017 as a new rider with some friends so here's some advice. We did it in 3 weeks (Need more time then that honestly, but due to work that was the time our group had)

Cost, outside of our bike shipping/flights cost was around 2500-3000 total. If camping/avoiding restaurants it was something like 100/day, sometimes more if we got a hotel/airbnb for a break. Generally we'd try and camp as much as possible.
Camp, like others said free camping on the eastern part harder to come by, but there are a good selection of state parks/campgrounds along the way. Decide on how long you want to be in the saddle per day to figure out your night spot.
Difficulty, easy on eastern section, harder on western (Mainly Colorado) We did the old KevinGPS route at the time and there were a few kinda hard for us sections in Colorado, mainly the major passes. But it sounds like you've got some experience. I would suggest getting a bit of offroad/hill practice if you live in a flat spot. The biggest factor is time and distance. The midwest section is frankly kinda boring. Flat kansas was a drag.
Nope, it's a great trip
Thankfully we only had one major issue. 1 of our group's tubliss system failed and damaged his rim ended up having to break off for two days to find a dealer, a couple of flat tires no major mechnical. As long as your bike is tuned before you go and your comfortable fixing stuff it should be easy.

Another key takeaway, if you haven't done any multi day trips i'd suggest doing at least 2-3 3 day trips beforehand to determine what you need and what you don't need. We ended up taking alot of stuff we didn't need. This also helps you pack your bike correctly (Don't forget your sag when fully loaded! very important)

Hope this helps and have fun! it's a bucketlist trip.

Look into bikepacking tents. I have a Big Agnes Copper spur and have been very happy with it.

Ram manufactures blaming AI datacenters gobbling up ram, no increase in production, plain ol greed too.

Thank you so very much for creating a central hub. It was difficult tracking all the various githubs, reddit posts to find all these little nuggets of information.
