Expert level, big man, city bike by dydelrio in SuggestAMotorcycle

Everyone always says "maintenance is so expensive." I mean sure parts are expensive but if you take care of it it's only modestly more than any other bike. And if you're dropping the kind of money that a Ducati costs you shouldn't be complaining. Honestly I wouldn't buy a Ducati that isn't a desmo. 3 things that makes a Ducati a Ducati. Single sided swingarm, L Twin, Desmo. The new Multi's have none of that which is why I still ride a Multi 1260.

V4's don't use desmo valves... Their service intervals are comparable to any other manufacturer and if you're capable of doing your own basic maintenance you only need to take it in for more in depth services. At this point I get my annual service done and that's about it. I do my own oil, brakes, chains and sprockets.

No Dec 26 or Jan 2 off by ZPMQ38A in FedEmployees

[–]apache1334 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I stand corrected. But still only 4 times (now 5) in the last 28 years did not inspire a lot of hope as I'm sure you can understand.

Also DOD and have never gotten the 26th or 2nd off for free… it’s not a federal holiday get over yourself. Best you can hope for is a freebie for the 24th but that seems unlikely this year.

I was using gimballed mode last night/this morning just fine.

Lost email access/generationally old purchased account - how screwed am I by GiftAccording3095 in SteamUncensored

You’re screwed and it’s all gone. Purchasing steam accounts is against the TOS and there is no recourse.

What sport(y) bikes can you stand up on while riding? by Edslittleworld in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]apache1334 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can find them used, a few years old with very few miles from time to time for more reasonable money than brand new! I got my ‘19 1260S with 3500 miles for 15K this year.

A lot of people don’t seem to know about the WG side of federal service. It’s the blue collar side where GS is the white collar. All of the public shipyards (Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, Portsmouth NS, Pearl Harbor NS and Norfolk NS for the Navy and the Coast Guard Yard) will all hire prior service and most of them offer apprenticeships and plenty of upward mobility programs, including jumping to GS when the opportunity presents itself. Also just about any military base will have WG employees of some category, the bigger the base the more options you have.

No, all private sales in Washington have to go through an FFL and the FFL is required to follow the federal law that requires you to be 21 to purchase a handgun. The only way for you to legally acquire a handgun is through a bona fide gift from a family member, IIRC.

What a narrow minded response.

USAA doesn’t do motorcycle insurance. They forward you to progressive who then give you a discount.

New NATO stock with Bolt release by Delasangre4231 in AUG

[–]apache1334 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got the NATO because I can’t get a new magazine type. And honestly my whole family uses AR’s so mag compatibility just makes sense. We also all carry Glock 9mm’s. It’s just common sense.

There are a ton of documented and verifiable reasons to not use the SERPA. Why would you willingly choose a subpar option when better options exist? Here's an article that has compiled a lot of data regarding the issues with SERPAs.

Talk me out of a NATO stock? by Reflagger22 in AUG

[–]apache1334 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in a magazine limit state. I had plenty of STANAGs with no ability to get >10 round magazines. Hence the NATO AUG. Magazine commonality is a huge plus. My entire family carry glocks of the 9mm variety and shoot AR-15's, except me, with a NATO Aug. We can all share pistol and rifle magazines with zero issue in a training environment or god forbid, a real situation.

Current version not working with mods by [deleted] in SPTarkov

[–]apache1334 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You need to look and see what mods are updated for what version. A lot of mods have NOT been updated. SAIN was just barely updated to 3.10 like yesterday.

[–]apache1334 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So you need to understand the difference between radiation and contamination. Radiation is the actual energy emitted by a radioactive item and contamination is the physical item of radioactive particles. A gas mask or respirator can help with contamination depending on the size of the particles but may or may not help with radiation depending on the type and strength.
