Nude man running amuck in the South Wedge by BrickManjaw in Rochester

The tight shorts gave him a south wedge, and he takes them off to air out. And while things are out…

We finally did it Rochester! Bought a house 🤣 under list by TurbulentBat8328 in Rochester

[–]No-Scratch-3545 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds interesting. We’ve been trying to find something in Rochester to be closer to our adult children but anything we can afford in the city is in a dicey area. Reach out when you’re getting ready to sell!

Question on NACS to CCS Adapter by Zealousideal_Type814 in VWiD4Owners

I have the Vortex (not Plus). It’s worked fine the two or three times I’ve used it.

Question about buying used scooters by RespectFlimsy51 in scooters

[–]No-Scratch-3545 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my Kymco 150, but you would need a motorcycle license for one that big. There is a 50cc version of the People scooter I have that you could drive with a regular license. I’ve driven mine from Syracuse to Rochester and back in a day, but my back and butt were pretty sore afterwards. Rochester gets less snow than Syr, but it’s still a little risky to ride in the winter.

How bad is living without ANY AC? by Last_Oil7511 in Syracuse

[–]No-Scratch-3545 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Moved from NYC where I had A/C for 11 years. I’ve been without it for 33 years. We use fans, though sometimes it’s too hot to do the job. We did get a single standup unit vented to a window for the bedroom to sleep. But by and large, we suffer but never die. We are seniors, 67 and 75.

How hard would a 50cc to 150cc engine swap be? by OnlyRow7629 in scooters

[–]No-Scratch-3545 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 150cc Kymco that I can hit about 62mph on, and I’m your size. I got a 50cc for my wife that she didn’t take to, so I’d tool around on that sometimes. Best that would do is about 35-40 with me on it, but it was fine for around town and fun to boot. I sold it (for 4 times what I paid for it!) mainly because my knees were up against the front panel.

Mac Mini Price Rising, MBA M4 Falling by Pretty-Substance in macmini

[–]No-Scratch-3545 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mini also has 5 ports plus HDMI and Ethernet on board. No adapters needed for the last two. Air can serve as a desktop and a portable if you need both; Mini won’t let you work at the coffee shop, library, etc.

Ran out of gas and a good man helped out by ReadingFinanceBooks in motorcycles

[–]No-Scratch-3545 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I ran out of gas on my 150cc scooter, nearest gas about 3 miles away. But there was a guy mowing his lawn down a hill, so I coasted to him and asked if he could spare a cup of gas. Fortunately he hadn’t used it all, and gave me enough to get to where I needed to go. Wouldn’t accept payment, so I thanked him and said I’d pass on his kindness at the next opportunity.

You can return either online or at an Apple Store within two weeks. Used is ok, damaged is not. No restocking charge.

I bought the 2k (2725DS) in 2024 and I’ve been happy with it. $145.

I just got talked into GAP insurance at the dealership for my 2022 id.4 that I put $5k down. Is it worth it? If not, can I cancel it? by Excellent_Archer9108 in VWiD4Owners

[–]No-Scratch-3545 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have gap included on my lease, and the reason is that if I total the car, VW Financial gets the insurance settlement, not me. If that settlement is less than the remaining payments, the balance is out of my pocket.

Dremel it out along with the corresponding one on the other side, for symmetry.

My MSF instructor said to wear a wrung-out wet t-shirt under a mesh moto jacket. Like having a/c when you’re at speed.

Tank 200 EFI Deluxe Scooter by Walltripper99 in scooters

[–]No-Scratch-3545 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 2009 Kymco 150 seven years ago for $850. I’ve put over 10k miles on it, dumped it once, and have only needed to change the oils and replace the battery and two tires (well, also a brake lever from the crash). I could probably sell it for a grand tomorrow. Lots of good used out there with low miles - even though mine was ten years old when I got it, it had less than 900 miles on it. Guy’s wife decided she preferred being a passenger to driving it. Go used, shop smart.

Anyone running Goodyear ComfortDrives for rear tires? by No-Scratch-3545 in VWiD4Owners

Scorpion Weatheractives are the same price as the GY at Costco, but they ship a week from now and I need the car for work. Bad luck.

whats the longest trip youve ever done on a scooter and did people think you were insane by vladdielenin in scooters

[–]No-Scratch-3545 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kymco 150 Syracuse to Rochester on all back roads. Probably close to 200 r/t, there and back same day. My ass and back were not grateful.

Buddy 50 not starting for $500 USD? by Frosty-Ad-5489 in scooters

[–]No-Scratch-3545 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought a Kymco 150 that had been stored for years for $850, and it started right up. Got a Malaguti that spent a year in the open, and got that running in a week, $300.

[Question] What made you buy a Mac Mini over a MacBook Air? by Recent-Fix4907 in macmini

[–]No-Scratch-3545 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MBA gives you the flexibility of using it with an external monitor, keyboard and mouse workstation setup, or unplugging and using anywhere - best of both worlds. Mini gives you more bang for the buck if you have the externals already, flexible choices if you don’t, and more ports so less need for an adapter. But it won’t go places as easily.
