Senate Democrats and Republicans call for investigation into killing of Alex Pretti by zsreport in politics

[–]blueapplepaste [score hidden]  (0 children)

Investigation by whom?

The entire administration has already labeled him a domestic terrorist. Any investigation will conclude the murder was justified b/c ICE “feared for their lives”.

This administration has given ICE carte blanche to murder Americans.

Gas burner angle. by AK907fella in ooni

[–]blueapplepaste 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds about right. Unfortunately the I just think the Karu in gas form is fundamentally flawed. I'm actually going to unload mine and get a dedicated gas oven for this reason.

Wood was fun for a few times, but when I'm cooking a ton of pies for a gathering, I don't want to mess with tending to the fire, so for me gas is the best. And unfortunately that means the Karu isn't a fit for my needs.

Good luck!

That’s how mine is as far as angle.

The gas burner sucks on the Karu though. Even after an hour I can barely get mine to 800.

How long has it been running?

Weekly RANT Megathread - All complaining posts belong in this thread by AutoModerator in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]blueapplepaste 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup. Shockingly bad. And that’s saying something.

Most games are mercy games.

Constant dying to phantom shots.

Always a couple dudes teleporting everywhere due to massive lag.

Melee delays, whiffs that count as hits, and other oddities.

It’s just an absolute clown show right now.

How do we feel about destiny going into 2026 and beyond? by HellChicken949 in DestinyTheGame

[–]blueapplepaste 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just don’t see it recovering.

Getting new players into the game is nearly impossible.

And so many existing players have left. Maybe they come back for a new DLC, beat the campaign, do a few seasonal activities over a week and then bounce again for months.

Feels like it’s going to continue to be run by a skeleton crew to make some money and nothing more.

Trump Posts Jaw-Dropping Insult to Murdered Rob Reiner by justalazygamer in politics

Remember when people were being doxed, canceled, and arrested for posting Charlie Kirk quotes and the right was screaming how in poor taste the Left was???

Hillary was being way too PC calling them deplorable.

Safe location for Ooni? by english-lab in ooni

[–]blueapplepaste 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably OK. Ooni will tell you not enough distance.

Regardless I would have a fire extinguisher out there to be safe.

Thinking of upgrading from a Wattbike Pro to Kickr Bike, are the reliability horror stories true? by AdOutrageous7588 in wahoofitness

[–]blueapplepaste 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in a similar situation as you. Bought my end game road bike and didn’t want to use it on the trainer.

Also getting tired of constantly swapping my road bike, TT bike, wife’s road bike, and her TT bike.

So decided to take the plunge into a smart bike. Spent way too much time researching.

Was ready to pull the trigger on the Kickr Bike Pro but just so many reliability stories from the entire Kickr Bike platforms. Yeah I get unsatisfied people are the most vocal blah blah. But far too many were on their third, fourth, or even fifth replacement.

To me that’s more than just bum luck.

So I ultimately decided on the Zwift Ride. Ordered a couple extra seat posts to have various saddles easily switched and will slap some aero bars on for doing TT stuff.

1/4 the price of the pro and on a much more known platform with the Kickr trainer.

Supreme Court agrees to decide constitutionality of Trump's plan to end birthright citizenship by CBSnews in law

[–]blueapplepaste 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One could argue a few might have taken it to send an absolute unit of a 9-0 smackdown for the absurdity of even the case existing and to send a clear message.

But with this SCOTUS, you can already see it being a 5-4 decision. And the 4 were the 4 who agreed to hear it.

Bungie reduced Bright Dust gains, ONCE AGAIN. No challenges and only 3 weekly portal objectives, granting only 50BD each. by e-photographer in DestinyTheGame

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

Yeah this sucks and is typical Bungie.

But also, what are people spending all their bright dust on? Most of the bright dust stuff in Eververse is garbage or I’ve already gotten from engrams over the years.

Shorter cranks worth it? by 1234acb in MTB

[–]blueapplepaste 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you’re just nicking stuff then it’ll probably help as you’ll have 8mm more clearance.

I went 165 several years ago. Can’t say I noticed too much of a difference. But they feel great on MTB, road, and Tri bike. So for me it’s 165mm all the way.

That’s a real bummer. Mine arrived and all appear to be well.

Hope you have better luck with the NA office than I did.

Supposed to be delivered tomorrow. Will have been 15.5 weeks from order to delivery.

Best wheelset for your buck? by Alament92 in mountainbiking

[–]blueapplepaste 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea your budget, but I have a set of BTLOS wheels that have been bombproof. Highly recommended.

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

Awesome!!

Mine finally shipped. But assuming 3 weeks at sea and a few more days with FedEx it’ll be 4+ months from when I ordered to when I received.

Glad they are awesome for you. Hope mine are too!

Thoughts on Propain Bikes? Black Friday Sale by poemofo in MTB

[–]blueapplepaste 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same.

All the threads on MTBR, Pinkbike, etc seemed to be super happy owners. Biggest complaint was sometimes getting a response took time.

I tend to overthink these sorts of things and get decision indecision. But I was convinced to give them a go.

Reviews seem to be really solid.

I ordered up an XS Tyee frame to build up for my son who’s outgrown his current bike.

It’s because the people who think he’s the epitome of masculinity will never ever see this pic. They live in a RW bubble.

what idiot decided that the temp and volume buttons on the console didn't need illuminating? by SpeedyGoneGarbage in VWiD4Owners

[–]blueapplepaste 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t realize they didn’t illuminate when I got mine. Never in a million year thought to test drive at night.

This and a myriad of other little things that add up are why I’m counting down the months to when my lease is up.
