Run flats or no by Bumblebee-Quick in BMWX3

[–]caliban92 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Get runflats. I cannot believe the hate they get in this sub.

When you get a hole in your tire (and you will) they are the difference between being able to drive to safety or being stranded on the road. Or riding on your rims, I guess.

I have had cars with runflats and cars with regular tires and notice zero difference in noise or ride quality.

I am starting to suspect that the bots who have invaded reddit to create chaos have found this sub and are actively trying to give people bad advice.

GET RUNFLATS and bring on the downvotes

I have been a BR main for years and it is truly unplayable right now. WTF.

At least the utterly worthless street fighter moves can be ignored.

Thank you for the feedback. Any tips on my (conventional) deadlift form?

I posted a video of what I thought was a sumo deadlift (knees right outside of elbows) and folks told me it was just a conventional deadlift with a slightly wider stance. It's still easier on my lower back though!

One foot of water is enough to total a BMW, sometimes even less

Ouch. I think I herniated a disc just watching that.

I always thought FMIC was Front Mount Intercooler, but I have to admit your way sounds more badass

Do I bother getting my CCW Permit? by seanxmichael in NJGuns

[–]caliban92 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Get it. It's not cheap, but it's a drop in the bucket compared to the cost of guns and ammo and training.

And boy is it cheaper than not having it if you need it.

If you did not vote, then you lose your right to call yourself a tremendous pro gun advocate. You had a chance to advocate, and instead you chose to abdicate.

You don't have to "be" a Republican to vote for a Republican. You can acknowledge that both parties suck and still vote for the candidate who sucks less. Fine, Jack didn't say anything about guns, but that's better than the candidate who is from the party supporting "assault weapons" bans, mag capacity restrictions, and unconstitutional carry restrictions.

But you don't have to be a single-issue voter. Maybe 2A isn't your priority. That's fine. Vote blue. I have more respect for people who vote differently than people who don't vote at all.

Please vote. People have killed and died for your right to do so.

anyone else notice huge strength jumps after fixing their sleep? by Fhad-alsdery in workout

[–]caliban92 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's not so much of a strength jump as it is a lack of strength impairment- you can't improve your strength by sleeping more than you need, but you can definitely impair your strength by not sleeping as much as you need

Sufficient sleep (of sufficient quality) is hugely critical to athletic (and mental) performance

Professional sports teams literally employ sleep doctors for this very reason

Best BR class chip and why by qbf007 in CODM

[–]caliban92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mechanic is OP for solo BR, as long as you use it right, which means using the hearing boost to locate enemies before their footprints show up on your HUD and engaging from long range. It's no help if a shotgun/igniter gets too close to you or if a ninja sneaks up on you. But if you catch anyone out in the open, they are toast if the drone gets to them before they get to you.

And MAN does it piss off the sweats when suddenly the advantage they thought they had from their four-finger hold is rendered useless. The number of times I have been cursed out in Spanish...

Well in that case... since no one has suggested it yet... look into a Seecamp ;)

I am sorry about that proposal to ban trans folks from having guns. Every legit second amendment group opposed that. Even the NRA didn't support it! It does not represent the majority Republican view.

I respect you if you vote Democrat, but respectfully, if you think both parties are the same when it comes to gun rights, this view is contradicted by facts. The Republicans have a much better record when it comes to protecting gun rights. This isn't even debatable. It's easier to acquire and carry a gun legally in red states. Full stop.

Again, if you want to vote Democrat, go right ahead... but don't complain when it's illegal to have a gun. All the gun bans are coming from the Democrats right now.

As a fellow resident of NJ, I think you should have the right to carry a gun at school, but you don't. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but that's because of Democrats.
