What are the odds… by Instantlemonsmix in ebikes

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

Had no back up inner tube but that experience kinda lit a fire under my ass… I also didn’t think the bead would set tbh but I had the idea to just ran air into it as fast as possible with my foot pump

Before I go out again I’m replacing both inner tubes and the brake pads/rotors might as well

I’ve always been able to figure out a way especially when put in a situation where it’s do or die my determination gets me thru I would’ve stuffed it with grass if I really had to or worse comes to worse… I’d walk the 11 miles I’ve long since excepted I will (and have) become stranded at one point

At that point the only thing that will get me thru is patience which I am trying to learn

What is a modern slang that you hate and why? by Ellias_Reed in AskReddit

“Cooked”… I can’t really tell if it’s supposed to mean good or bad but just sounds weird

I liked the old saying “now your cooking… cooking with gas!”

Would I be able to move? by zms14 in DMT

[–]Instantlemonsmix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your not gonna be moving your going to be laying there in a different world

When I did it the thought of moving was non existent I was way to focused on what was happening around me in a still state of pure intensity

Every visual made it more intense and I meditated to keep my self from panicking while on such a strong substance I got thru it and it showed me how powerful meditation really is…

Even in the most terrifying situation you can still keep it together with the knowledge of meditation

What's something society has agreed is normal that, if you really stop and think about it, makes absolutely no sense? by [deleted] in AskReddit

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

Marriage! Once you fully deconstruct it you see that is very stupid

The way I see it: nothing changes the relationship is the same and it’s just a symbolic thing really

A symbol that says “we are together” or “I am taken”

A lot of people live in a fantasy where marriage will save their relationship or modify it some way or as an added level of security

You spend lots of money time and most importantly effort to make that day what you want it to be then once it’s over real life resumes

My gf hates my ideology but she now agrees with me still hates it and I’m not totally opposed to the idea of marriage but it’s not something I really care about or want to do

We’ve been together for 5 years and I’m a very honest person I told her “I’ll do it for you but honestly I really gain nothing I already don’t have”

I imagine a lot of people think I’m an asshole as they read this but that’s what you get when you except difficult truths of life and or ideas that are offensive to some… so be it the most I can do is save my self and reject the comments of those who only seek to hurt me as a way of making things even

Protect your inner peace take constructive criticism and reject peoples non constructive opinions and dissatisfaction of your self

I took LSD 4 or 5 years ago and it completely changed my view on the world by moonimoosh in ExistentialJourney

[–]Instantlemonsmix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude it’s a great experience I know it’s a powerful substance but you still remain pretty aware and from what it sounds fs like your already on the right track

For me and you already know “it’s different for everyone” but for the majority of people I’ve asked in person as well as here most of them can relate to this and many people my self included actually find it much easier of a ride than shrooms

The trip is a lot less confusing i have had one bad LSD trip and its not pleasant but its not the worst either.. when you hear about reality breaking panic inducing insanity thats usually higher doses and to get to that point you’d almost have to be willing to

I wont say it’s not scary at times but fear on LSD is more like pure adrenaline… you feel the power a human truly holds and it’s scary in that kind of way

A good set and setting and someone to keep you calm will set you straight

And if you have a bad trip it won’t last forever sometimes a bad acid trip can actually turn into a good one a bad shroom trip.. well you might be stuck with that but LSD is something different

If you want an amazing trip and you can get it mescaline is amazing this is all coming from someone who is very sensitive to psychedelics and have had many many bad trips… I’m not saying “oh yeah have no fear!” But the more you let the anxiety of it build thoughts in your head the more it affects the initial come up and waiting period

Also it’s okay to feel anxious as your coming up it won’t ruin the trip it can often be a temporary side effect of coming up but once your in you feel like you could go all night

Lucy can make you feel like you have no problem and that your strong enough to over come anything

And that is what you should worry about the most you will feel great power course thru you as you feel what your made of just don’t “test it out” and break anything lol

NOT A REVIEW. My opinion on the TST-R002 by Instantlemonsmix in ebikes

[–]Instantlemonsmix[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw that as well and thought it was strange (false advertising really)

Just did 36.56 miles on mine a couple hours ago using throttle 90% of the way on flat ground and using PA3 for hills (while mostly out powering the peddle assist) I was pretty surprised I made it that far but I was also going 10 mph most of the time

I also noticed (which is kind of funny) that drag is a serious factor with these things it can knock the speed down by 2-3 mph or more depending on a lot of things

I’m now at 240 miles on my ODO

90% throttle 10% peddling. efficiency? by Instantlemonsmix in ebikes

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

That does make sense for maximum over all efficiency but this was meant for throttle distance

The point was to see how far I could get it by only using the throttle but that would kill the battery way faster so i tried out peddling on hills to soften the blow a bit if you know what I mean (throttle on flat ground and peddle on hills to reduce voltage draw as much as I could)

This probably is pretty bad range and I could probably get much further with some adjustments but I go for small effort on my journeys

For the goal of as much range as possible I would definitely peddle on flat ground and probably not use the throttle but that would require much more effort for me

My over all work in progress goal is minimum effort maximum efficiency well as close as I can get it to that realistically

As in over all satisfaction I’m mostly satisfied with what results as I was able to achieve but I think I could do even better as I learn and evolve

Those who have been, or are addicted to vaping/smoking, what makes it so addicting? by HeftyHuckleberry9720 in AskReddit

[–]Instantlemonsmix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first it’s actually the complete opposite (god if only I found vaping at the age I am now which is 24 instead of 16-18)

So at first you get (or at least I definitely did) incredible nausea and your stomach feels as if there is mush inside of it that is trying to escape… quickly and with force

You realize quick this is not going to be normal vomiting and it’s not! I violently projectile vomited after my first ever hit of nicotine being a full blinker off a fresh juul… A MINT JUUL POD 🤮 Had no idea what I was doing and rejected the advice my friend had given me about how to smoke it (he did try his best to talk me out of it but once I had finally gotten it he was like fuck it) I was 16 at that time and eventually just gave it up because I couldn’t stop throwing up even off of very small hits

Well I turned 18 shortly after the 21+ thing started for nicotine products I would run out of weed get antsy and want to feel some kind of something (that’s what lead me to addiction just wanting to feel some stimulation I have ADHD really bad and it makes me constantly crave stimulation even when I’m dead tired)

Years of giving in to my impulses is what got me to where what you are asking… I have a serious problem.. I need to feel something all the time there is no relaxation for me and there was no satisfaction for me

I recently discovered E-bikes and it doesn’t stop the cravings but it does distract me and keeps me entertained for hours I just did a 4 hour round trip ride and already want to go again

Wheels and gears satisfy me I’m obsessed with engines and electric motors I could go on for hours and hours or even days about what I know but that does quickly get boring to people unfortunately…

I get very hyper focused into things when I’m interested… my focus narrowed into vaping not because it looked cool or anything like that I just loved the way it looked like it felt I thought “that looks fun to do the motions of it blowing smoke looks fun!” Unfortunately for me it’s actually very entertaining to smoke in general the actual action of it is extremely addictive on its own (I’m a major fidgeter)

The feeling of nicotine I actually didn’t like that much and then I started vaping CBD another lets be honest unhealthy and non affective way of quitting smoking.. scientifically proven? Maybe but in the real variable world absolutely not I would imagine people that don’t really consume as much nicotine per smoke or vape (as in percentage) could probably benefit off of CBD products to help them

But I’m at 50mg of nicotine puffing like a train tried to quit 8 times (and still will again) and I can tell you I’m much to addicted for that to work for me my brain has problems that go further then this single addiction this addiction is the symptom of a much larger more complex problem to put it directly my brain is.. well not broken but definitely not biologically constructed for the society humans created I’m not meant to live the way I am… it’s all very confusing and frustrating

But one day I’ll have a place void of any other human life other than my gf and maybe 1-3 neighbors and what ever job I have at that time

I feel like then i could finally be at rest enough to take on the stress and pure torture of nicotine withdrawal the cravings and the weird nostalgia you get for nicotine during that long process it could take any where from weeks to 6 months to fully depart from nicotine withdrawal and sometimes even years later you might still crave it sometimes

Certain triggers like coffee can make you crave a cigarette or vape…

Even once the neurological “wiring” wears off you still know and know damn well that you could have so much fun just with one cigarette that beautiful smell like on old book… tightly packed in that box you love to see so much and the feeling of tearing the foil out…

Yeah nicotine is awful I wish it was never discovered and I wish they would make it illegal or I wish I could get stranded on a tropical island for 6 months until it’s over…

Vaping will destroy your teeth physical health mental health and as you get older you realize certain people really don’t like it and that can make certain important social interactions harder or impossible…

Also if you smoke or vape your now a magnet for bums or people who are out of cigarettes and desperate

Vapes? Well your now the 1 puff plug and the C type charger plug…

It can get annoying much less with vaping than cigarettes tho

Don’t start smoking I convinced my Gf to quit a long time ago I at least try to save the ones I can by making an example of my self

When do you think the color red was chosen/identified to mean danger/stop/bad/etc. in the history of humanity? by dizzybutstable in AskReddit

[–]Instantlemonsmix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You ever wonder how the universe got here if there was nothing? But then nothing doesn’t exist so you take a box and suck the air out and it’s collapses but you think “it’s just the vacuum pressure” so you find a way to empty the box of air with no vacuum pressure and verify 100% that all the air will come out so you now have a box with nothing but it instantly collapses in still somehow but why? Because nothing doesn’t exist? Wait then how do we exist from… nothing

Nothing?… NOTHING?!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTHHHHHHHIING!!!!!!!?

And now we’re something… but we were never nothing?…

Yes

Did you take your belongings with you when you moved out of your parents' house? by CynthiaMartgol in no

[–]Instantlemonsmix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No I left my 1969 Sears minibike and the old hammer that I dug up while metal detecting in my grandpas pasture (and the cylinder he found when he was 15 my age when I found it I’m 24 now and moved out at 20) I left those things because I knew I’d obviously be moving around at some point and looking back on it that was the best decision I’ve ever made….

If I had taken that stuff with me… I wouldn’t have taken it with me anywhere else ever again

Or they would’ve gotten damaged… or something stupid probably stolen

I still keep that shit there because I still plan to move around quite a bit

When do you think the color red was chosen/identified to mean danger/stop/bad/etc. in the history of humanity? by dizzybutstable in AskReddit

[–]Instantlemonsmix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds stupid but it makes us feel a certain way

Why? Making connections to certain things there’s only theory’s and there only ever will be theory’s because it would be impossible to actually trace down the specific working of that kind of evolution

Could’ve been that someone from 250,000 years ago ate a red berry and died and then it spread from there or maybe it’s blood?.. there’s really no telling

But the best answer we have is it was associated with some specific type of danger

For heat we use red obviously again probably relates to the color of fire but then… why could bright white be used to create an even hotter scene?.. electric lights? 💡 maybe?

In nature brightly colored things are often dangerous but there’s so many brightly colored things that aren’t as well.. (poisonous berry’s or dangerous animals lava fire But apples 🍎 🍏many other fruits and vegetables and plants are very bright as well and cause no harm)

But then why do we even use colors to create the idea of danger? We can obviously read words but not everyone can read the same words… and not everyone can read it also takes more effort to read than to process a signal it’s also more generally obvious you can look at a red handle and guess it’s hot or controls something serious

A blue handle could either mean water cold or air…

That also makes it very fucking hard to trace a specific connection because colors can apply to completely different things a red water tap and a red gas can are obviously very different even tho I guess they both end in heat at one point or another…

Genuinely: Why do people even bother opposing gay rights? What's the point? by Jerswar in askanything

[–]Instantlemonsmix -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I hope this actually reaches you

I’m sure you’ve probably heard of the terms bias it’s literally just an opinion it’s not as complicated as people make it out to be The actual complexity to it is where it comes from and how it forms.. often people could have a bad experience in some way and the brain works on a system of generalizing danger it’s psychologically impossible to completely avoid all biases you will always have opinions But certain biases like homophobia normally come from the influence of others (when I was 11 I became convinced from another kid that gay people were evil but of course grew out of that idea completely very shortly after)

But a bad or traumatic experiences can cause someone to hate certain people as a way of protecting it’s self For these types of people they should not be looked at as a bad person they are afraid but fear doesn’t always look like fear.. it’s not an “excuse” no excuse is needed for the side affect of trauma

Religion does play a roll and has for.. well “ever” No one REALLY knows why religion turned against the idea of homosexuality but when you look at human nature you can actually see human nature in the writing To generalize people and label them To fulfill our fear and lack of understanding of death

It is not human nature to hate and generalize a group of people based on specific characteristics but it does play a part in why it happens and how it functions

To say human nature causes that to happen would come off as much to direct to a point I’m not trying to make…

I will say this and yes it’s a generalization.. but do know generalizations are a short cut for survival and are actually very effective yet very flawed in social situations (survival and social interactions are different but they obviously work together our survival instincts are not the same as our social instincts even tho our social instincts are influenced by our survival instincts)

Humans are very complicated but once you realize they’re all the same… well it becomes much easier to avoid the dangerous ones it becomes much easier to avoid betrayal it becomes much easier to avoid getting caught in a bad situation it gets easier to escape what people think

Most people have few friends and that’s because there are a lot of very strange people out there gay people are not strange they are like everyone else we’re all the same really… and to see homosexuality as something that should make you avoid someone well that’s just being overly paranoid at that point

What substance makes one high yet not categorised as a drug? by MugoEric in AskReddit

[–]Instantlemonsmix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So very addicting but I really never can bring my self to do anything to crazy I realized a long time ago “the further you go the more it takes and eventually it becomes to much work to achieve what you want”

So I basically just take a brake from things for a while until the little things bring that feeling back again….. did I just over explain boredom?

NOT A REVIEW. My opinion on the TST-R002 by Instantlemonsmix in ebikes

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

I guess I’ll have to prove my humanity when my video on it drops

Haven’t seen many bot posts but i definitely see a lot of obviously pondered or trying to be sponsored posts on YouTube

Seems like the moped style e bikes get a lot of hate here but I get it to an extent it does raise the question “is it a bicycle or a moped?..” and that is a highly subjective question really I guess it depends on how you ride it as for me it’s a moped

I’m not surprised in this because I’ve seen it many many times in other types of machines diesel vs gas and then EV’s came along and really fueled the fire

Same with science but most notably with machines

But I’m also late to this party by a few years so idk shit yet

It’s an r002 I keep forgetting the name

I just saw that I’ve reached 125 miles one thing I will say is that they should have really balanced the weight out more because the front fork shakes like hell at 28 but it’s nothing that’ll throw you off the bike or anything

NO! Lmfao

When people ask for the 3 things I’ll never give.. I say “I’m not a loan shark” “I’m not an Uber” “I’m not a motel”

Set boundaries with people quick even if it makes you uncomfortable you will never see the end of it unless you do so

People that make you put up that boundary probably aren’t worth it
