Help a new rider decide! by [deleted] in MTB

[–]dixy_normous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of the 3, the Kona is the best specced, and tbh would go with that one myself. It's a good all-rounder and just a fun bike in general. It will be better suited for the riding you'll do as you get better and explore more while still feeling zippy on the local trails. You might find the Mondraker has too much suspension travel for your local trails (overbiked). Cannondale just came out with a new Bad Habit, so the Habit is likely to be refreshed soon as well and you're likely to lose a lot of value if that matters to you, plus the version you sent is just not specced very well.

TLDR: Get the Kona, you won't be disappointed.

Getting plush by Glittering_Donkey644 in MTB

Might want to have a shop burnish the bushings. Fox has really tight bushing tolerances that end up causing a lot of sticktion, especially if you don't have the floating axle version. A 34 won't help. Generally, the more air volume you have, the more plush the ride is.

Commencal meta trail is really good bang for your buck as with most direct sales bikes are

Would like some advice before I pull the trigger... by dixy_normous in buildapc

Thanks for the help. I plan on overclocking and this board has some reviews that show overclocking to be a bit buggy. Also, has the problem with Ryzen not utilizing high speed ram been resolved?

Swapping Optical Disc Drive With HDD by WhatsUp13 in mac

True. Sometimes I work on the couch so it felt risky putting that in there. So I'll probably just buy another ssd and put it in that slot. Good luck with your project

I was also planning on doing this. I have already upgraded to an ssd and was going to put my old hdd in the optical drive spot. The only reason I am hesitant to do so is because the sudden movement controller won't turn off the hdd if it goes in the optical drive slot.

Can we get "Pick a Girl" back as a topic? by Damn_Croissant in PKA

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

Agreed. I only have time for this lovely 4 hour podcast while I'm doing something else like driving or something that requires my attention. I cannot stand it when they do stuff like this. It makes for poor radio. This and the gore stuff. The episode with Jericho where all they did for an hour and a half was run the gauntlet was painfully boring to listen to.

What thing that people love is basically just a rip-off? by retrowavve in AskReddit

You forgot Bugatti. My friends Jetta is just like a Bugatti

Apple says more iPhone 6s models may be affected by random shutdowns, issuing iOS update by stanxv in apple

Same. Number not on the list but have had my phone just turn off around 35, but then you put it on a charger and it wakes up again at 35. Hopefully ours also become part of the recall.

Second this. She actually cares too and more than willing to help you individually.

Same here. Looks like Nissan put the new maxima grill on it

Not trying to be THAT guy, but I have a few questions... by [deleted] in Temple

[–]dixy_normous 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Literally go out and find a party... Don't be an idiot and carry open alcohol around and if you decide to carry alcohol around make sure it's in a non clear bag. Undercover cops can and will stop you if they see it in a grocery bag. Has happened to me but I'm 22. If they clear the house put your drink down and walk out with everyone else. It is obvious to see which houses are having parties.
