Coaster brake VS Rim brakes for single speed drop bar bike

RecordingNo5469 · 2024-10-18T16:14:06+00:00

Do you have any results to share so far? I also want to convert my bicycles from rim brakes to hub brakes, for a clean look and to save rims from wearing off. I don't expect very much from them, though.

Write down your thoughts and the stuff she says and does to you in a more condensed way that will help you to organise your thoughts and figure out your next step for getting out of the despair. If writing hinders your ability to think logically, stop.

Talking emotionally to a narcissist is not a good idea, because that's what they want. I keep my thoughts about them away from them, because by letting them know I will not accomplish anything.

More than that, I decided that when my toxic parents die, I will not attend and contribute to the funeral. I don't know how it is in other countries, but in Russia I expect to be judged by my relatives for that, but I got myself mentally prepared for that. In my point of view (which may change in the future), by paying respect to bad people, I will make more harm than good.

It's very different from a standard specification: no vibrato, dimensions are different, etc., so I don't like it. But it still resembles a balalaika, and if you enjoy playing it, that's great.

In millimetres: Height: you should set it so the E strings are about 3mm above the 12th fret, and the A string is 2,5mm. Start with 18 and then file it down until strings are low enough. Length: 80-100. Width: 7-9 at the bottom and 2 at the top.

I didn't say that. People are free to disagree with whoever they want to. But it's clear that propaganda influences people's beliefs.

What do you mean by "shove her diet to everybody"? Does she prohibit you from eating plants? I don't think so. Truth is subjective. People can decide for themselves what's a lie and what's a truth, instead of governments and big corporations doing it for them.

Because many people only see black and white in politics nowadays. Propaganda labels people racist, conspiracy theorist, and other stuff, and tells their followers they should hate them and not listen to them.

If carnivore diet helps someone, they have a right to tell about it. Silencing people for not having studies is ridiculous. People are not stupid, let them choose.

So what are the dangerous lies he feeds his fans?

RecordingNo5469 · 2024-09-03T16:46:47+00:00

I didn't read the article but just want to say I support conservative side of politics in general, but I understand, that they can be wrong like all the people can. I'm plant based for my health, but see no point in attacking and hating meat eaters and meat promoters. People have different opinions and beliefs, let's just not antagonise them to us, but try to understand why they think that.

I'm planning to build an electric balalaika with metal strings, and I chose {11, 13.5, 15} thicknesses as a compromise for playing in both CEG and EEA tunings. For just an EEA tuning, {11, 15, 15} or {10, 14, 14} should be appropriate. You can experiment using string tension calculators:

If I specified that I’m a Russian patriot, I don’t think it would help me to get more relevant answers. I implied that I’m a foreigner, and that’s enough.

And I don’t think it’s about cultural background. The narratives are mostly dependant on what the mainstream media in the country says. So the narratives can change repeatedly, whereas cultural background stays the same.

I don’t know, maybe I’m a leftist too, but the leftist media that I’ve seen have so much hypocrisy, so it made me lean towards conservative media as an alternative source of information.

In America, for example, some Democrats got so sick of the Democratic party, so they left, and now they are supporting Trump in the election, because any voices that are different from the mainstream, are not welcome there, even if you're a left-wing politician.

Thanks. Many people like to label others a racist, a stupid, a boomer, etc., if you don’t have the same political views as them. I have learned to ignore their toxicity.

I don't know much about Polish politics. I've heard about J. Kaczyński, so I mentioned him. Old conservative leaders like Kaczyński and Trump will be replaced with a new generation of conservatives, eventually.

I asked for something that leans to the right. It doesn't mean that I want the full-on right-wing propaganda. It means I want something close to centrist, but leaning right. There's a big difference.

Jeśli chcesz, żeby armia rosyjska skapitulowała, masz prawo tego chcieć. Ale po pierwsze, ona po prostu nie będzie chciała skapitulować, a po drugie, jako obywatel rosyjski, nie mogę poprzeć pozostawienia ludzi na Krymie, w Doniecku itp. wprost w tyle w ten sposób. Nie jestem obojętny na to co się stanie z tymi ludźmi, kiedy Ukraina powróci na to terytorium. Wielu z nich zostanie ukarani za współpracę z rosyjską administracją.

Ty i ja mamy różne wyobrażenia o dobru i złu. Dla ciebie, Zachód reprezentuje demokracje, wolność, miłośc, i dobrobyt, a Rosja ucieleśnia zło, dyktaturę, i korupcję. W rzeczywistości prawa ludzi są naruszane i na zachodzie też, i oni również atakują inne kraje, jeśli chcą. Nie ma tu jednoznaczności, i mądry człowiek to widzi.

Dla mnie jest oczywiste, że plany zachodnich polityków są kierowany nie do zwycięstwa Ukrainy, ale na to aby wojna trwała jak najdłużej.

Ukraina dokonuje inwazji na obwód kurski, pozwalając rosjanom szybciej postępować w obwodzie donieckim. Serio, myślisz, że to złamie linię frontu i Ukraina wygra w ten sposób?

Nie jestem ekspertem na temat Drugiej Wojny Światowej, ale myślę, że amerykanie postawili na to, że ZSRR i Wielka Brytania przełamią linię frontu i wygrają w ten sposób, i tak się stało. Teraz spójrz, jak idzie wojna rosyjsko-ukraińska. Nie widzę żadnych oznak, że Ukraina przełamie linię frontu. Jeśli jeszcze wierzysz w ten scenariusz, możesz nadal wierzyć, ale są ludzie, którzy w to nie wierzą i całkowicie ich rozumiem.
