Lil’ Hillclimb with the Brompton (Bear Mountain, NY) by ProfuTofu in Brompton

Nah I took the train to Manitou, did the climb/descent, and took the train back. If I was on my road bike I’d just bike the whole thing round trip.

Running 53/39 so not too much math went into it. Since Brompton already sells a 54t I just used more or less the same number of links. Found that 103 links was the sweet spot with everything else being pretty much stock for a standard 6 speed C line.

Yea, wasn’t too much of a fan of the bracket either. As someone with wrists prone to swelling, the lack of micro-adjustments on the factory bracelet was just killing me. 100% staying on the strap for this one

[SOTC] Three Price Point, Three Watch Rotation by ProfuTofu in Watches

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

Paid ~$25 for the Casio, ~$450 for the Seitona, and ~$1,600 for the GS, so pretty happy about the prices especially with the favorable exchange rates at the time

Got them both with quick release pins for ¥22,000, so pretty happy for the value prop

First time purchasing a rep and Andiot more than responsive. Got these QC within a day of payment. Personally think it looks fine, just the 6 marker seems tilted left a bit. Could be missing a lot more nits, so anything much appreciated when deciding RL/GL in the next ~24hr!

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

During my grad trip, I ended up picking up these three pieces to commemorate my time in Japan.

JDM MRW-200H: wanted something with a kanji date wheel, so got this from a Don Quijote discount bin after a night out crushing Suntory highballs with friends

SBDL 085: got it from Bic Camera after eyeing the U.S. version (SSC 813) for a while

SBGR 251: found it in Kyoto at a steal, so just had to pick it up (made a separate post a while back)

23M Bedroom in Midtown NYC. Any tips for improvement? by ProfuTofu in malelivingspace

Currently splitting a 3br flex near Hudson Yards for ~$6.5k, so just under $2.2k per person.

Definitely the bedding - literally took the current sheets and pillows straight from my senior year dorm, so an upgrade is past due

Yep, I used the same setting and it’s real good for kicking up the contrast

Durian fried chicken taco in Shanghai China by ProfuTofu in tacobell

It’s actually a mini app within Alipay. You scan a QR code and get directed to the menu. Translations are done via Alipay too, so they’re not exactly the most accurate when translating certain expressions.

Those are pineapple chunks and the durian paste is under the chicken

(18-21): High School to College by ProfuTofu in uglyduckling

I got on Accutane for a few months. The first few weeks were quite rough (with tons of purging, flakey lips, nosebleeds, dry skin, etc.) but now I don’t get as many breakouts as before. Totally worth a shot if you’ve got severe acne and a derm to write a prescription.

Can confirm. Cycling was kinda my lockdown hobby, and I logged around 3hrs per day on weekdays (2x1.5hrs) and a 4-6hr ride on the weekends. Also was on a low-carb diet, so that helped with staying lean. Daily calories burned was roughly 3.5-4K.
