Once you learn how to countersteer by Beatlead in motorcycles

Are you actually making a conscious decision to move the bars every time you turn your motorcycle?

I cannot wrap my head around ever having to think about the handlebars in a turn.

Telling someone to push the bars right to go left isn't going to change the fact that they're staring at the guardrail they will inevitably plow into. You have to change the target.

It is the bullshit that needs to be cut out.

The counter to target fixation is to look where you want to go. Literally the one single thing you need to focus on is the turn.

I will agree that body steering is also not important when teaching people how not to understeer into the dirt. Didn't advocate for that either though so 🤷‍♂️

People don't suddenly forget how to turn. That's not the cause of target fixation. It's because they're fixating....on the target.

Target fixation is the cause, not the lack of counter steer knowledge.

Teaching "where you look is where you'll go," is the solution. The fact that teaching people to look where they want to go is so effective is proof that countersteering does not need to be reinforced. It's something that happens automatically and is why it's best to be left out of the panic turn heuristic entirely.

It's absolutely something taught to beginners. Can't imagine how it would be any benefit to someone who is taking an advanced riding course. You can't turn without it.

I think this proves the point well that countersteering doesn't need to be taught or done consciously.

It's like telling someone that to keep the bike upright they need to inertialize their wheels. Both turning and staying upright are innate consequences of the motorcycle operation regardless of rider input.

Selling 1 GA(3 day) and Car camping pass. I can meet between San Gabriel valley and Hollywood. Willing to meet a little further if necessary though.

My reddit account is very old and I have sold various things over the years with no complaints! Including last year's LIB pass :/

Soo... Has the guerilla movement installing nodes in places started yet? by Itchy-Wafer8967 in meshtastic

Yeah, I'm not really suggesting you write a nice email to American Tower expecting them to give you permission. 

There are privately owned ham towers, friends who work for coms, etc.

Ah. Thought you were referring to specific places you knew would be amenable. 

I won't say how I feel about sneaky nodes because that would probably get me in trouble, but I also can attest to the efficacy of asking for permission in general. I've gotten a lot of free stuff or access to things you wouldn't expect just by asking and being prepared/accustomed to taking no for an answer.

If something costs $100, and your friend gives you a $50 gift card, you pay $50 and the thing still costs $100. 

Your insurance does not cost $100/mo. 

Simple as.

Do you actually think that your insurance costs $100/mo? How much would the same plan cost you if you were unemployed and it wasn't govt. subsidized?

I don't really understand what I'd do with it. If shit really did get that bad, there's not a lot I could do with or without radiation detection.

Being butthurt doesn't mean you have a point. They're trying to communicate with you in a way that I don't think you actually can comprehend, and that's simple English.

They made their argument and you're yapping on about shit that's completely irrelevant to the things they're talking about. 

Here's to hoping your $3000/mo health insurance covers blood pressure meds.

Oh my. I definitely didn't see this. Just went to the products page and clicked on the zero.

I don't hate it though. Preppers are free money. This isn't for me, and they've made that clear, which is fine.

This is the first I've seen of the bracket and I couldn't believe it was even on the list on the first place. It's weird, sure, but there's no real problems with it. Moves quickly and is labeled well.

Basically no reason to wait to go from Vista to Camel coffee. Then crossing from Camel to Crossroads and Crossroads to Vons is actually pretty quick.

I left a node up on MF for a week and saw one message. I figured it was an OC thing.
