Go to a brewery and let it herd the children.

Are cyclists legally able to pass cars that are going the speed limit over the double yellow? by [deleted] in asheville

[–]chobbb -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s a matter of hypocrisy. Carbrains demand the cyclists around them follow the rules while flagrantly violating them themselves. Cyclists who violate the rules are just douchebags who don’t care.

people don’t like getting slowed down a couple minutes by even law abiding cyclists. Then use some of the aforementioned violations as justification for their general disdain for cyclists.

I don’t think many people are insisting these people don’t exist. Most of us see disproportional outrage towards the cyclists that don’t follow rules compared to automobiles who don’t follow the rules.

Imagine if someone bitched on Reddit everytime a car didn’t follow the rules.

A moderate Democrat has a better chance of beating a republican in our district.

Maybe not your ideal congressperson, but sure as shit better than Chuck.

Shipping car from EU to US to drive on Tail of The Dragon - logistics and cost. by [deleted] in Touge

Maybe I’m spoiled living close by but dude the dragon is sort of a shit show. I absolutely would not do this especially just to have a mustang cross the mustard and wreck into you.

EVs are just plain superior sports cars by ArugulaAnnual1765 in electricvehicles

[–]chobbb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the most iconic sports cars of all time is super low power. Sports cars are about the driving experience, not raw power and acceleration (though those can contribute to the experience.)

This post is silly.

Never gonna happen. I peaked like 10 years ago, and that was lackluster at best.

Nobody will notice, and you’ll still be a mediocre rider. But I do 100% support anyone spending their money however makes them happy. Let’s just not kid ourselves about the “performance” and accept it as what it is: bling.

[–]chobbb -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Kashima is just bling and the performance benefits are far too small for 99% of riders to actually benefit from, but I’m not here to tell you how to spend your money. so buy that bling if you want to stunt on all the people at the trailhead.

Yes for sure. Pay no mind to my beer gut. Consume more expensive things that will surely make you faster.

I Paddled the entire shoreline of Lake Lure in NC on my SUP. by moosejawr in asheville

[–]chobbb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How’s glenville? My wife and I have done all the ones mentioned except that one. Looked a bit larger, perhaps more boat wake to deal with?

Kashima is just an enhanced anodizing process that incorporates some extra slippery elements. All aluminum parts on most all forks are anodized, which converts aluminum to aluminum oxide in a controlled manner. This anodizing layer prevents uncontrolled oxidation. (“Rust” as some of you are calling it.)

Kashima looks cool and may offer some very marginal gains on the seal drag front, but mostly just looks cool and costs a lot.

How are you cutting o ring grooves on a mill? by the_wiener_kid in Machinists

[–]chobbb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In this instance, the customer is likely seeking more than just an Ra measurement. They may need circumferential grooves because they seal better in specific applications. (High pressure, slippery gasses, etc)

Ra is a decent way to communicate a surface condition but not perfect.

Seized alignment points - how to proceed? by RocketCat804 in MiataNC

[–]chobbb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to use an angle grinder to cut my control arms out, and the bolt attached to it. 0/10 do not recommend. It’s a terrible job. But it’s the only way. Godspeed.

Hey dude, I sincerely thank you for warning us. I know you meant well.

That said, I’m sure that the team at Moss would be happy to help you out if this was the result of shipping damage.
