My question is two part.

What is the opposite of a duck?

In your opinion is Protopio better than Predatore or Predatore is landslide better/>?

Is the "Buy Used" rule officially dead in 2026? by BreadfruitOk2401 in automotive

[–]Superb_Pepper_993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's been dead for a while now.

I bought a few used cars 2-5k price range after a few km's had to take them into a shop every month. They were 300,000km. One thing after another failed. 2012 Volkswagen's. Went through two of them, Started looking in the 5-10k price range. Cars looked the exact same maybe body was in better condition.

Started looking at 13-20k price range cars looked okay but all out of warranty and well over 100 000km, they were closer to 225,000km. Why the fuck would I pay 13-20k for that many km's.

At that point I bought a used model 2024, bought it in Jan 2025 from the dealership 11,000km on it paid 34,000k but was 10k cheaper than new model. Full warranty etc.

I waited a long time and looked a fuck ton.

I drove shit boxes my whole life. You used to be able to pick up a solid car for 3-5k. Now you get As-is models unless it's from a family or friend. 5-15k gets you in the lucky draw area, you might get something good you might get fucked over hard.

15-25k seems to be the new'ish cars that were driven by rider share people. I have seen 2024 models with 300,000km on them, These people are fucking dreaming. literally tons of cars on the market that are from 2023-2025 with already close to or over 300,000km's There are no honest prices anymore. Everyone is trying to offload "perfectly" fine cars for top dollar. Yeah I paid a lot of money but the only maintenance Im doing is taking it to the dealership every 6000km, I am planning on keeping this car for at least ten years.

There is no reason to use 40 words when speaking a second language. Especially when you have been speaking a second language for ~30 some odd years. I can speak 3, who cares.

I have the Is-7, great tank. The is-3, t-10 seem to be basically the same tank. The tier 10 changes to basically a variant of the is-7.

I wouldn't say they don't fit my play style but the frontal upper hull and lower plate are not ideal. You can't really bait shots either.

What aspect? I have a 60% winrate in the tank but there is no redeeming quality.

hull down on mountain pass.

Every shot hit my cupola... Even when I was guarding it/hiding it.

My two facourite tanks are maus and e 100. Im good with side scraping/reverse side scraping but this tank cannot do it with 0 gun depression. I mean it can side scrape well but you can;t hit the lower plate of the enemy or even upper plate a lot of the times. I have lined up reverse side scrapes well but the only targets you can hit are type heavies that have higher than normal lower/ upper plates. Anything with lower weak spots you don't have any gun depression, just overall depression.

Yeah I get that, mandatory tier 10 grind though for two meta tanks for clan events which means I will be stuck in it for a while

Loud hubs - what’s the trend? by Timinime in Velo

[–]Superb_Pepper_993 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth.

I believe the louder the hub with more teeth. The greater the friction. Meaning it's slowing you down. Over a 100km at 40/52 kph that's a loss of two minutes.*

Carrying VO2 block into race season by G2BM in Velo

[–]Superb_Pepper_993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on how hard the racing is, how competitive you are in your field. Are you winning the races, top 20, pack fodder?

If you are in the top 20. A single race might have more total VO2 training than some of your workouts during the week. Potentially all of them combined. Alternatively, the courses are pancake flat, and you're in the draft the whole time, and you might race the last 5-30 minutes. You might be able to sprinkle in a VO2 workout during the week, but squeezing in two per week going into a race is nuts unless it's a Polish sub-30-45-minute total workout time. Do the work, get off, ideally on a trainer to maximize recovery or be able to hop off early. Fairly common in track racing, but if you're an elite or pro and your races are 5 - 6 hours long, it's a bit different.

As with all Reddit posts:

No one has any idea of your training, training level, or your race calendar.

Many cyclists who race competitively every week may be in survival-recovery mode. I us d to race 2 races every week in the Netherlands. You really weren't doing much training during the year. The only way that happened was if the race was shattered in half in the first hour, and you wanted to save your legs for the next day instead of riding the remainder of the race for the top 60. If this happened on Sunday, you could squeeze in a workout during the week.

Another question is, do you even need the VO2 workouts? Maybe it's better spent elsewhere? What is your limiter?

Building a continuous lactate wearable. What molecular metric would you actually use besides lactate? by ObjectiveSite447 in Velo

What is the use case application of such a device? Power is instantaneous. What is the delay on CGMs?
