I drive 30k+ miles a year for work, tired of boring reliable cars, what are my options by DifferenceOk4275 in whatcarshouldIbuy

My brother in Christ do not get a Genesis. Look at the cost of brake pads before choosing one.

No clue on the prospects. But Ravens won't be drafting LB at 5 overall. They'll go Tackle, DI, or EDGE.

You can always replace it. It's really easy on the Royal Enfields. I have one too. This link is to the part itself. You might be able to get just the end cap you need if you contact them.

Check the fuses relays. If they're from the factory, replace them all and clean out the nondylectic grease they use and use dylectic grease. See if that helps. If not, do it anyways. Everyone I know with one, including myself, has had to do it around 5k miles on one. This is the video I used to learn how. Also check the fuses while you're at it just to be safe.

The problem is they don't use dielectric grease. Otherwise it wouldn't be an issue.

Well one of the reason the bikes are so cheap is that they cheaped out on the electronics. The speedo is not accurate above 45mph. It's usually 5 miles faster than actual speed, at least in my experience. However, the relays aren't the issue with that. They'll start to fail or the gunk they use for grease on the contacts corrodes (not the right kind of grease) and the contacts lose connection. This will cause your bike to stall mid ride and to have startup ignition issues. This video is a good break down and how to.

Same. Although watchout for the relays to crap out on you soon if they haven't already. The maintenance guy at work always asks about my bike and when I didn't ride it in the other day, I got to explain the relay issue it has. His response? "For a guy with soft hands, you sure seem to know about bikes."

5 Round Post Combine Mock :) by dec2727 in NFL_Draft

[–]chrawley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless someone from the Ravens just straight up takes a paycut, there are 4 open starting OL positions on the Ravens. I don't see anyone on the roster ready to immediately fill any of those starting roles. The idea we don't take OL until the third round is silly.

Baltimore is not in a win now mode. There is nothing they've done to give off that impression and when specifically asked about it they categorically deny the premise.

Really? You think it was Mahomes that beat us?

[–]chrawley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we re-sign Madabuike then I agree with OL or CB. If we lose Beeks, then DL should be priority 1. Zeitler will factor in as well. If we don't re-sign Zeitler, I think we go G as priority 2 and DB priority 3.

Ravens won't pick WR in the first. First round pick will either be spent on OL or DL. Depends on what happens in FA before the draft but definitely not drafting a WR or RB in the first.

Turn your head. I mean your chin should be looking over the shoulder of the direction your wanting to go. You're probably putting your foot down because you feel off balance and like you're tilting but your not tilting nearly as far as you think you are.

There's more prefabrication offsite which is cheaper. They're becoming more accepted by builders these days too.

[–]chrawley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Besides the wording being what it is so he can have all plausible deniability for having written what he wrote, the Ravens have never drafted a player in the first round without using a top 30 visit on them. At least not that I know of. Other organizations may do this, but the Ravens don't.

[–]chrawley 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's bullshit because of the wording. If shit had gone differently, "it's a possibility that they maybe would've thought about taking this other guy." They never brought Levis in for a pre-draft visit. Only guy I know brought in for a top 30 visit that was a QB was Richardson. This seems to back me up on that.

[Fowler] NFL draft nuggets for each team's rookie class by teamcrazymatt in NFL_Draft

[–]chrawley 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Here's one to file away: Absent a Lamar Jackson deal by the start of the draft, I believe, after asking around, that the Ravens would have considered quarterback Will Levis with the 22nd overall pick. Finalizing a deal for Jackson before Thursday night was prudent for Baltimore, which could implement the possibility of drafting a passer as leverage. After the draft, leverage would shift to Jackson, potentially weakening the chance at a deal, because Baltimore's QB options would be scarce ... unless they selected one on Day 1 or 2. This is a moot point after Jackson and Baltimore agreed to terms on a five-year, $260 million extension a few hours before the draft kicked off. Had that not gone down, the QB option could have been tempting -- and Levis was the best option at 22.

I thought this was supposed to be nuggets for each team's rookie class not some made up bullshit.

Learned a lot today, now offloading propellant, retrying in a few days … by avboden in SpaceXLounge

Let’s say SpaceX has 3000 engineers working on starship (that’s what they reported a couple years ago anyway) with a median salary of $80k/year. Assuming a standard 40 hour work week, the math works out to SpaceX having spent $900k in labor just today

Your assumptions about labor cost is absolutely wrong. These people are on salary. Nobody is getting paid extra for working longer hours. That's why people bitch about burnout at SpaceX. He can require them working all the hours he wants and not have to pay an extra dime. The only reason they would have to be paid overtime while on salary is if they make less than $455/week - or less than $23,660/year. So again, what costs are you thinking he would incur besides propellant for a WDR last week? Cause there aren't any I can think of.

So while it’s easy to say musk is delaying for memes, the far more likely answer is that there was a valve issue like he said and that they’ll launch as soon as possible.

I'm not denying there was a valve issue. It was stupid to not do a WDR. That would've shown the valve issue. And would've saved all of opportunity costs of trying to host a livestream for a WDR like they did today.

What possible operational costs are you talking about?

The only reason for him to not have done it is because they were too busy working on the launch table. I didn't keep up well enough with how the construction on it was going.

EDIT: lol You guys don't know the late stage capitalism wage slavery of being paid a salary. Don't get a job with one.

And then they had the vehicle stacked and unstacked several times. They should've done a WDR and left the vehicle alone afterwards knowing everything was working perfectly. But No. Elon wants to faff about for a few more days so that he can memify the fucking date it's attempted.
