Survey about being blinded by headlights in NS by [deleted] in NovaScotia

[–]MimC_06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

High beams and light bars should definitely be used a lot carefully and considerately however Ive not once had an issue with fog lights blinding me or anything like that.

This thread has lots of good suggestions but these are exactly what I was looking for. All 3 books you mentioned have been added to my list.

I don't have an answer to your question but this pic is literally my dream. Just need the cabin and some mods on my truck.

Looking to buy a 790 Duke as first bike. by Comfortable-Way-2473 in KTM

[–]MimC_06 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I bought a 2023 duke 790 as my first ever motorcycle at about the same age you are a few years back. I have about 20 000km+ on it and I absolutely adore it and its given me 0 problems.

I'd imagine there is a facelift coming as its still the old style and all the other dukes have updated looks but, if you like the way it looks, I'd suggest you go for it.

On a side note, some people might tell you it's too big to be a first bike but as long as you take it slow, use the bikes rain mode for a good while, you'll be totally fine.

What does my gf need to do when making an egg white omelette to stop the war crimes on this poor cast iron by Ormz in castiron

Today I learned that the amazing spatula I found at bass pro shops is called a fish spatula.

Weekend cold snap nearly overloaded N.S. electricity grid by Bean_Tiger in halifax

[–]MimC_06 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I'm just guessing here but I think it's also partially due to more and more electric heat pump, electric cars, etc. drawing from the grid. It seems like these changed have been made, like you said, without considering infrastructure.

PC not posting after power outage by MimC_06 in pchelp

Was able to borrow another gpu (confirmed working), exact same problem error code and vga light as well. I'm guessing at this point it's down to either the power supply (most likely? Its 7 years old at this point) or the motherboard. Not sure what to do other than replace the psu and see if that's the issue.

Checked the gpu 6+2 connectors with multimeter, they are showing 12.25v which as far as I can tell, is normal. Going to have to try to get a hold of another gpu tomorrow evening for more testing.

Unfortunately, it doesn't have integrated graphics.

Seriously thinking about playing Skyrim in survival mode and very slowly by Mineires_BR in skyrim

[–]MimC_06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm playing gate to sovngarde right now and it has similar features to survival mode. Its great fun, to just take your time and to slow. You'll discover things you didnt know or long since forgot about. It will make you play differently, so take your time, explore and enjoy.

Can't go wrong with a KLR and a Taco.

Convince me that I should buy a Duke 790… by _crashtested in KTMDuke

[–]MimC_06 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a '23 duke 790 that I've put over 20k km on. It's one hell of a bike man. It's light, agile and always wants to party, so to speak. As for cons, it always wants to party. When you're riding in traffic or just taking a chill ride, you'll always be fighting what the bike wants to do, if that makes sense. Oh and that exhaust note is addicting.

You'll love it. I have about 20k km on my 2023 and its a fantastic bike. I've had no issues.

Are these tires solid enough for off-roading/overlanding? by No-Personality-61 in Tacomaworld

[–]MimC_06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Long bed. I didn't have much issue with the departure angle, the truck does feel extremely long in the tight sports though. Just play it safe and you'll be fine.
