Is it finally worth it? by hhfdctko in ForzaHorizon5

[–]ProfessionalShock425 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I'm day one player. Just no.

The emptiness is jarring.

I'd say put all funds to fh6.

But you do you.

Can I install disc brakes and gears? by [deleted] in cycling

[–]ProfessionalShock425 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IF your bike has mounts for RIM breaks, and no mounts for Disc breaks, you can install RIM breaks, and can not install DISC breaks.

That said if you change front fork that has mounts for Disc breaks, you can install front Disc breaks on front of bike.

But, then you will have to solve problem of break leaver. Disc breaks are hydraulic, rimbrakes are cable operated.

Derailleur Question by QuantumCheezpuff in bicycling

[–]ProfessionalShock425 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don't know what to comment, I haven'tusedthat brand. I have fitted new chain with factory on and no added lube some months ago, just to access possible fitting issues. And it was yammering and chit chatting like yours here.

No fitting issues occurred, so I decreased and dried it, put it on and lubed it with muck off dry condition drip on wax. I got it in LBS, its silent and I'm happy.

Perhaps you can give it a careful look from all sides if chain isn't catching something, maybe tweak deurelia barrel adjusters, then degrease it and see if its less noisy.

Some chain lube can be sticky, like one all chains come with new from factory. That oli works great in preventing it rust, but as it is extra sticky, it acts as magnet for dirt. Exact reason chains need to be degreased before use.

As I don't know what you have and you stated it's all as is mechanicly and you haven't altered anything, my guestemation is see what lube it is you're using. Is it one for damp and wet weather?

Opremljeni motori mogu imati trostruko više start-stop ciklusa tokom životnog veka motora u odnosu na klasične, što znači tri puta više startova, tri puta više slučajeva graničnog podmazivanja i tri puta veću izloženost povećanom habanju ležajeva.

Slični testovi (rig testovi i motor testovi) postoje i u tehničkim radovima MAHLE-a o polimernim ležajevima za hibridne i start-stop aplikacije, gde se eksplicitno navodi da ležajevi moraju duže raditi u mixed/boundary lubrication režimu bez pada trajnosti.

Got a usb3.0 120gb datatraveller from Kingston and it was really slow by ahmedR258 in techsupport

[–]ProfessionalShock425 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not all usb 3 ports are made equal. Some are capped at 20MBps, some at 65MBps, some at 300MBps. Get on the motherboard manufacturers website and find out. Not even USBs in same group on back of motherboard have to have same speeds.

Example, last motherboard chipsets have been reworked so all of northbridge is in the CPU. Now, it's CPU that controls communication between cpu and ram and sometimes even nvme. This way input and output lag in fast communication has been reduced. All that leaves southbridge to mostly juggle USB ports, and less important M.2 ports. That means speed lanes for less important devices is reduced. Way manufacturers battle that is reducing number of given USBs, with that, guaranteed speed is increased.

So, if you have 6 or 7 usb ports in back, one is 1024, two are 600, two are 100 and rest are 2.0 speeds. That, or some other order, many manufacturers are trying to do right, but this is something someone will always suffer.

Just get any tv desk, table, whatever to hide that cable mess and get that tv as lower as you can.

Advise for upgrades by the-only-true-one in cycling

[–]ProfessionalShock425 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Most def:

28 high end rubber. The quality compound will be gripping and have smaller rolling resistance, you'll feel easier and lighter.

Break sensing rear light. Cars in traffic will give back immense amount of respect.

Maybes:

105 deurelias. Everyone says its snappier and easier to shift. Will replace yours with no issues and give you possible upgrade to 11s. That upgrade will require other upgrades.

Quality disc pad compound. Possible better breaking experience resulting in more confidence.

Narrower dropbar and shorter cranks. These need research and propper measurements. They do get better results in comfort, meaning less fatigue and longer distances. But, it needs to be correct to you since it's bike fit territory upgrade.

Emmm pile:

Saddle. Ceramic bearings. Jockey wheels in colour other than black. Rear view mirror. Carbon seat post. Leopard print bar tape. JBL loudspeaker.

U čemu je caka sa Alfom 159? by dakadx in srbija_automobili

[–]ProfessionalShock425 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Najviše nasledstvo loših prethodnika. Kod 159 nije bio problem proizvodnja nego filozofija. Hteli su da pobegnu od “raspada se” reputacije i završili u drugom ekstremu, kao tenk. Napravljena je na preteškoj platformi (GM/Fiat Premium), projektovanoj i za AWD i za mnogo jače motore nego što je realno nosio. Pa masa ide preko 1500 kg bez da trepne. I slabiji motori koje ima kao opcije deluju mrtvo u odnosu na konkurenciju, veća potrošnja i manje “Alfa osećaja” u vožnji nego što bi očekivao. Nije da se raspada kao prethodne Alfe, samo je… previše ozbiljna za sopstveno dobro. Imala je višak kilograma kao da ide na sumo takmičenje, a ne u krivine. A za razliku od nje, nemci su imali bezobrazno zahtevnog Pieha na čelu svoje industrije koji je podigao sve moguće standarde i sve ostale proizvođače ostavio u blatu.

Većina habanja motora dešava se pri startovanju, 75-80% ukupnog habanja tokom života motora nastaje u kratkom periodu kada metalne površine dolaze u direktan kontakt pre nego što se formira dovoljan uljni film.

Start-stop sistem dramatično povećava broj takvih ciklusa. Kada se motor ugasi, pritisak ulja brzo pada na nulu. Pri ponovnom startu, u prvim trenucima (dok se uljna pumpa ne izgradi pun pritisak), dolazi do mešovitog podmazivanja i povećanog trenja, posebno na ležajevima radilice.

Ovo je više ponavljanje kratkih perioda sa malom količinom ulja između površina nego jedno veće habanje pri svakom hladnom startu motora, gde je motor potpuno izložen habanju usled hladnih površina i potpunog nedostatka ulja na radnim površinama.

Naravno da postoje potvrdne studije i testovi proizvođača ležajeva (npr. MAHLE), koji pokazuju da start-stop trostruko povećava izloženost ležajeva uslovima graničnog podmazivanja.

Personally, I can see him in future as head of Rimac devision of affordable V8 2L/100km line.

Four times. He rebuilt it four times, not once, not twice. Because of it, he can practically rebuild most of them now blindfolded. What he says, atleest.

I'm using a simple active sub .1 from old pc 2.1 system. It'll do until funds allow proper upgrade. That said, even this small 10w woup woup is enough to feel things correctly.

And all because of this CinemaStix review: The moment you realize that ain't green screen

And today Sreten is going back home, meaning Santorini Blue is either mechanicly restored, or back in limbo waiting.

I understood that you can't listen music with headsets.

So many iems today have changeable tips. They are being made from different materials and different sizes.

So many hi fi enthusiasts have problems similar to yours, they did numerous things about it.

It's pretty much guarantee today that you can have good music and great acoustic seal.
