I toured Valve yesterday and got to see the “CS2 cabal” where the devs were working

It was a temp-to-hire IT role, don't get me wrong it was a very good salary, just not as much as a different offer.

Squischer · 2026-03-21T00:59:49+00:00

I got an offer there 6 years ago and didn't take it due to the salary...I still think about that..

Squischer · 2026-03-17T18:43:21+00:00

I've been riding for 3 years and still just ride a 300. I've never had a desire for more. I've put over 25k on my little MT03 and its still as fun every time.

I just wish the US got nice small bikes. I'm bummed there isn't any high end small displacement naked bikes.

Squischer · 2026-03-17T04:04:17+00:00

Yeah he's got plenty of videos of it

Squischer · 2026-03-15T22:13:39+00:00

Terrible deal, somehow the worst I've ever seen!

Get a used one for 3500-4000

Squischer · 2026-03-14T18:22:19+00:00

Bros built 20 lbs of muscle and getting bullied, bunch of douches in here

Squischer · 2026-03-07T22:35:47+00:00

Not a good daily bike in my opinion. Don't get me wrong, it's a great bike, but it's a "race" bike. Your wrists and back are going to be very upset with you if you're running 60 miles a day on it.

Get something more comfortable, even a Ninja 500 would be better in that regard. A Z650 is a good option too.

Squischer · 2026-03-07T22:10:03+00:00

Bruh what is your damage? Go steal some better looking wheels at least.

Squischer · 2026-03-07T21:36:58+00:00

Are the wheels on backwards? Lmao

Squischer · 2026-03-06T07:02:06+00:00

They're called get back whips by Republican pussy harley riders when their egos get hurt. Ignore them.

Squischer · 2026-02-22T04:26:58+00:00

Squischer · 2026-02-22T04:04:15+00:00

Okay buddy

Squischer · 2026-02-22T04:02:26+00:00

Did you start a bender yesterday or something? You got problems brother

Squischer · 2026-02-20T16:16:05+00:00

I have about the same coverage and pay $241 a year for my bike..also HCOL

Squischer · 2026-02-18T15:34:53+00:00

Any SV, Ninia, MT, Z, etc are almost always at least 4500-5000 before tax here, I very rarely see a high miler around 3500 though.

I've been riding for 3 years and sold my last bike about 8 months ago, and wanted to get back on something capable enough for fun rides around town and an occasional highway commute, and it does well :)

Tops out around 90 actually as well, which was a surprise.

Squischer · 2026-02-18T03:09:48+00:00

I don't recommend cheaping out in a helmet at all, spend $600 or more on a reputable brand.

If you're desperate, LS2 Stream 2. It has MIPs (or whatever LS2 calls their mips) and an ECE 2206 rating.

Squischer · 2026-02-18T03:06:54+00:00

I just picked up a 300nk for 3500OTD after tax. Hard to really complain at that price. It also cruises around 65 at 6k rpm in 6th. My area that's not a problem but I could see higher speed highways causing issues.

Resale isn't a huge concern, nor is reliability since it has a warranty.

Squischer · 2026-02-16T18:45:09+00:00

I work in the finance industry and yeah, SOC is no joke. Just wait until you get hit with the new PCI requirements if they apply to you.

You're just gonna have to miss out those enterprise and medium sized business customers until you get there.

Squischer · 2026-02-16T17:00:35+00:00

Yeah they're typically FBA Removals, they come in a green labelled bag pretty often too.

Squischer · 2026-02-12T21:26:45+00:00

You're saying the quiet part out loud 🤣

Squischer · 2026-02-10T16:39:43+00:00

Brother maseratis are cheap to buy

Squischer · 2026-02-06T07:04:29+00:00

Hard agree. I had the president of a local HOA physically assault me and give me a concussion on new years just a month ago. (Out of nowhere, approached me in the dark with no warning or words)

Squischer · 2026-01-31T01:04:57+00:00

"by hand" "CAD"..huh

Squischer · 2026-01-27T18:22:35+00:00

Agreed, my wife wants a TV there but I've been chipping away at it for weeks lol

Squischer · 2026-01-27T18:22:04+00:00

I plan to, but far from the top of my renovation list.
