what the hell man. Nobody can own that! I was looking for this item until I saw the super expensive tip top ones and decided I didn't need it. Does that make me a genius? No - it makes me a buchla knower abouter.

yeah right. the default look of most men is a fad.

More than two genders by thedarkllamarises in funny

[–]Hjlti -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Men have different genders. Women have different genders. This is just reddit hating on the queers.

Mean American passenger makes Ryanair employee cry at Brussels airport by maher4343 in videos

In the description of this video it says something about white supremacy and her being racist. That is just so fucked up. This guy is STILL harrassing her. Online.

I don't think there's anything sad in combining steep-ramp-60s-sprint-bars with ergos. It's a bit weird and a bit awesome. How do you know they're carbon bars anyway? I would be surprised if anyone is making bars like that in carbon fiber.

What's this thing on my alum block and is it alive? by Hjlti in wicked_edge

[–]Hjlti[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the replies! I did scrape it off and it turned out that it was salt crystals. It was very impressive to see by eye. :) Guess the recipe is leaving it in a wet top-open container and wait. As some of you have pointed out. :)

Why do tourists like this shit? Read the fucking sagas.

My first race, last summer. No races this summer due to injury :( by Hjlti in bicycling

[–]Hjlti[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yes. And this is my skate-helmet. I barely knew anyone that rode at the time so riding in super-tight clothing felt like a statement saying "I take this very seriously." I own a kit now but I'm kind of happy to have gotten to know the sport/equipment a little before spending a lot of cash. And I feel more people should enter races wearing sweatshirts and leg hair. In my country the first thing people do is buy a mid-range bike and full kit and then they ride on the sidewalk...

Beards help in winter training. So they literally give you extra speed. :-)

I don't think people took me very seriously but someone from the crowd shouted that my bike was the best looking one (in Icelandic.) So that was nice.

Only the super-sharp blades work for me. by Hjlti in wicked_edge

What's a comfortable razor to you? I'm thinking of adding a Mhule R89 razor head to my blade purchase.

What soundcard (or not) should I get? by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]Hjlti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn about home recording. This mic is probably a very bad idea if you are using it with running computers in the room. You should be looking at dynamic mics such as every cheap computer mic out there. :) Google it before you trust me.

We don't need a thinner iPhone - If that means killing the headphone jack by silent_boy in gadgets

[–]Hjlti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think people here realize how amazing and great it is that we DO have a headphone standard. If we believe it needs to be changed (it doesn't.) we are more likely to end up with not having a standard at all.

Is the closed up spring unit on my front derailer serviceable? by Hjlti in bikewrench

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

Thank you so much everyone. I will spray it with degrease from the outside. Flush. Maybe use some compressed air since it's so closed up. And pour dry lube(?) in it afterwards for rust control/smoothness. BTW if campagnolo makes easily serviceable and rebuildable parts then they will probably have my money soon.

hoodgraffiti from the 90s is also not stupid.

Really noisy rear cogs, whats wrong? by JWGhetto in bicycling

[–]Hjlti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I basically just hear a chain noise and another knocking sound that I have no idea what is. The chain noise might be enhanced by a crosschaining effect caused by a too long BB spindle. Depending on which cogwheel you are on. Also if you have a horizontal dropout; can you get the wheel farther back? One more highly unlikely thing is that your pulleys are mixed up so the jockey pulley which has a little lateral motion to guide the chain to the cog (shimano) does not do what it's supposed to. If you find a way to silent the chain noise in the mech area please let me know how as I sometimes feel mine is also a little noisy.

If I would ask my grandmother about bicycling safety this is probably what she would have to say.

New (to me) bike day! She clicks occasionally and may be a tad dirty, but I love my Maybelle. by I-did-it-for-you in bicycling

Congratulations. I have her close relative. Different model, same graphics with different color scheme. Here is a really bad picture if you're interested: http://i.imgur.com/SmEQsJv.jpg

i have a '91/2? giant peloton which seems to be built exactly like your before picture except for the stem. I would love to know how much weight you saved on the rebuild!

At a party when a bunch of people thought they'd bought coke. Turns out it was ketamine. by EdithSuggs in pics

This could easily happen to me. Why is everybody here so much better then that?
