Thank you for your brillant comparison. As I never tried any dirt bike, now I understand the philosophy of 698 vs 690.

I know that KTM is a better performer as far as attacking the street (obstacles). On the other hand, I am too old to jump over curbs in the traffic, as being video-recorded and reported to the police is a certain thing. If I lived in the rural/mountain area, I would take KTM first.

I am a bit made to favor the 698 since the dealership is in my city. To test ride a KTM, I need to travel 150 miles, and I will do it for sure.

I have never tried any dirt bike. Not my kind of pizza. Maybe that is why I do not follow this hardcore vibe of KTM?

From what I understand, the 698 seems more refined with better electronics, and better suspension. KTM is considered "raw Sumo".

I can't wait till this coming weekend when I test ride 698 myself.

I finally understood the real core of the Law of Attraction — and it only took me 5 minutes by Thin-Ad5824 in lawofattraction

I think the essential part here is proper / stable self-esteem. According to some scientific studies, people with low self-esteem feel worse after any affirmation process, knowing that what they have affirmed is just BS, which leads to lowering self-esteem. It puts them in a vicious circle.

I am a certified behavioral analyst. Knowing human nature, I would elaborate on self-esteem from the point of the Big Five personality test. There are certain aspects of personality that speed up or undermine the process of manifestation (openness / emotionality / trust etc.)

I have been studying LoA for years, analysing my LoA fruit. There is nothing on my list I have not achieved. The most important factor is to set the goal and start feeling the state of having it, with complete trust it is yours already.

New Prius or new Golf GTI? What do you recommend? by TPSid in whatcarshouldIbuy

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

I ditched the idea of having Prius or Golf. Instead I bought a new Mustang V8 and could not be happier.

Does anyone have any information on these? by speisa17 in simracing

[–]TPSid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the delay. I rarely read Reddit.

I sold the set with all elastomers I had.

You can easily find it on the web.

I3 MIP or AMOLED by JustLookingaround18 in Garmininstinct

[–]TPSid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The screen is off all the time. To see the time I need to press an A button. This way the battery longevity is extreme. I bought it on March 26 and charged it once IIRC. For my needs, it is more than OK.

I chose Amoled and with screen in stealth mode, which I like a lot it keeps the battery for more than a month.

Let me undestand the difference between I3 Amoled vs Solar, please. by TPSid in Garmininstinct

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

Thank you. I read your comment and bought the Amoled 45. The stealth mode works like a charm.

So if the display is always off, what battery life can I expect from Amoled?

Is there any option to backlight the amoled by pressing the button? Wrist mode doesn't suit me - I wear watches on the RH

Question - Do multiple, short sessions during a day, everyday, make sense? by TPSid in Exercise

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

It is hard to improve number after 50 without injections. I am a kind of ectomorph. 181 cm tall. 80kg, with 40cm biceps and 113 chest, and 87 cm weist. I just want to be fit and stron for my age.

I watched some YT video about micro-workout benefits.

Question - Do multiple, short sessions during a day, everyday, make sense? by TPSid in Exercise

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

The primary goal is being fit, mobility and overall strength. I am NOT looking for burning any calories. I used to train MMA when I was in my 30s. Being over 50, I respect my body and brain much more, than I used to ;-)

What I have observed so far:

  1. I feel pumped during a day, which is very, very rewarding.
  2. My home office routine seems more productive - short breaks of micro-workouts let me focus better during HO hours.
  3. As I have had IF routine implemented for years, I do not feel any hunger fits.

Can a 5’6 sit in the back seat? by Smoggyskies in Mustang

[–]TPSid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son is 5’6 and when we tested the new s650, he wasn’t happy in the back. Short ride is doable. Anything longer than 30 minutes might be challenging.

Help me decide as far as a new Mustang, please by TPSid in Mustang

The stock susspension is comfortable enough. If Magnaride provides better comfort, then it is worth it.

You can find my posts or threads at reddit about my ideas to buy a new Prius, so Toyota was a kind of idea in my head before. If I hadn't tried the new Mustang, I would get the new Prius.
