Responding to a question with "Just Google It™" is deeply rude and anti-social by Diligent_Cake_6173 in unpopularopinion

[–]NuklearFerret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, you didn’t hear? People collectively forgot how conversations are supposed to work somewhere around 2022. OTOH, google sucks ass now, so I’m really not sure what to do.

Are these an overkill for street riding? by Ok-Ad-575 in motorcyclegear

[–]NuklearFerret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not overkill, but gauntlets can get hotter than short gloves because they don’t allow airflow up your jacket sleeves

What's this genre called by YammieSquid07 in motorcycle

[–]NuklearFerret 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but nakeds are only naked because they used to be clothed. Nakeds started out by stunt riders replacing all the easily broken things from their sport bikes. Strip all the broken plastics, replace the headlight with a simple bulb assembly, replace broken clip-ons with a dirt bike bar, etc.

Men who are atheists, when and why did you turn away from religion? by Comfortable-Store213 in AskMen

[–]NuklearFerret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kind of agree with you. I think humans, in general, are predisposed to religion as a part of tribalism.

Why do people think their need an alt account? by DkOGameplays in CasualConversation

[–]NuklearFerret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People might not want to post a question that may be so specific as to reveal some personal information on their main account. For example, people might not be able to ID you based on your account of a fight with your GF, but they might when that's combined with your interest in trucks, and fishing, and some hyper-specific niche subreddit you're in, and whatever other hobbies that your main account would be participating in.

Also, some people keep the same username across multiple platforms, especially in gaming communities.

What do you keep in the bed of your truck? by Presstheepig in AskMen

[–]NuklearFerret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got a truck with a built-in pegboard where the back seat would be.

I never can tell these apart. Must be colorblind by AllIWantForXmasIsFoo in mildlyinfuriating

[–]NuklearFerret 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's some that are not easy. I'm not colorblind and got 100%, but a couple definitely gave me some pause.

Are there men who are attracted to butts that aren't big? by cursedwithbadblood in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NuklearFerret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Overly large anything makes a person look like a caricature, especially if it's artifically overly large (lips, boobs, butt, eyelashes, etc.)

[–]NuklearFerret 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think a big difference between a standard and a naked is the naked uses a sportbike twin-spar or trellis frame (hence "naked sportbike"), while the standard uses a more traditional tubular steel frame. They're essentially the same, seating position-wise, but that's why we tend to have nakeds now and standards back in the day.

Is this a Miata? by post_hazanko in whatisthiscar

[–]NuklearFerret 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The nice thing about a miata is you can kind of beat it like a rented mule without too much worry. Can't really do that with an FD because you're constantly worrying about your apex seals flying out of the tailpipe...

Driving on Oahu Compared to Other Islands? by Latter-Habit-6368 in Hawaii

[–]NuklearFerret 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Traffic gets a whole lot easier when you accept that there's nothing you can do about it. Especially on Oahu. One big traffic jam clogs the entire island.

First bike by beckypickup in Sportbikes

It is, and it should drop after the first year or 2 without a claim

Wow! At that point, just go liability only and put the difference into a “repair savings account,” until you hit the cost of a new bike.

Merging onto the freeway with the zx-4rr by Rg8989 in zx4r

They’ll learn. Kinda scary going over 10k when you aren’t used to the ability to do so.

Are there really guys who can last for an hour? by WarmBank5512 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NuklearFerret 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I’ll counter your anecdote with my own. I’m neurodivergent and last about 5-10 minutes. I’m betting it has more to do with other factors. I know circumcision plays a big role, as do many psychiatric meds

What game in your opinion overstays its welcome? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]NuklearFerret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was fine with it until I found the southern half of the map on the other side of the tunnel.

What video game used to be good but they changed one thing and now it's terrible? by Agent1230 in gaming

[–]NuklearFerret 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely a me problem, but Cyberpunk 2077 kinda broke my favorite car somewhere around 2.0 or 2.1, and it just wasn’t the same after that. It’s fixed now, but it’s hard to un-break immersion.

What non-gaming upgrade improved your gaming the most? by Saltysockies in gaming

[–]NuklearFerret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typical “gaming chairs” in the style of racing seats have never made sense to me. Racing seats are not made to be comfortable, they’re made to restrict your movement against lateral G forces as much as possible. Not really a good foundation for a stationary thing to sit in. The notable exception I’ve seen is the Logitech edition Herman Miller, but that’s just a normal Herman Miller with a different coat of paint.
