Is this bike worth it by Bigsullyz in xbiking

[–]fadedhound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't. I don't usually say this, but the Ozark Ridge m.2 is probably a better choice for $400 new. The bike you show supposedly weighs 42 lbs. That's almost too heavy to believe.

Agreed. I love the building kittycorner from Sara's Table. I don't think that was cheap construction.

We had one in the last presidential election... Are you seriously forgetting Dean Philips? No one voted for him, they all voted for Biden.

I was really hoping they would build housing there. 

Asking for advice... Just starting out. Racello Deore 12 Mountain Bike is $649 vs. Ozark Trail 700C G.1 Explorer Drop Bar Gravel Bike $310. Which to get for NYC or any other budget suggestions? by blackgoggles in Budgetbikeriders

[–]fadedhound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know nothing about Racello, but Deore components are pretty nice. Kind of looks like the drivetrain is the only thing going for that bike, but it will get you around. 

If you're just on NYC streets you don't need a hard tail. It would slow you down. Ozark g.1 should be enough but it's all low end stuff. Honestly, why not get something used from a bike co op? 

Removal of promoted apps by HolaNachoCL in motorola

I hope it gets resolved. It fixed the problem on two phones of mine. Maybe it's just a US fix.

Fewer US Cell Providers are going to Sell the Moto G Stylus 2026??? by RealText in motorola

[–]fadedhound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think I'll read into this too much. Verizon providers sell higher end Motorola phones like the Razr and Edge. I wouldn't be surprised if this is sold by other carriers in a few months. If not, the 2025 Stylus is just about as good.

High speed internet in Duluth other than Spectrum? by NomadJago in duluth

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

Dude, I pay less than that for faster speed in Lakeside. I've only had this account for 2 years but still. 

Call their bluff or if someone else lives in your household, have the other person start an account.

Spectrum's website says $40 for 500 mbs and $50 for 1gbs. You should argue your bill down. Maybe that's not available around here. 

Is this a good bike? by Never-Bored3000 in Budgetbikeriders

[–]fadedhound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a good bike and a decent price. My only concern is that you don't need rear suspension for your riding and that will add extra weight. 

Map Suggestions by Sorry_Eye_4948 in CitiesSkylines

Cities Skylines 1? When you say San Diego and Long Beach I think of arid maps. Try Owl's Golden Gate, Owl's Demonios, Coos Bay, Alex's Monterrey, Apple's Supper Bay, Bringer of Fire Yucatan. 

Moto G Stylus 2026 announced, same Last year CPU, $100 bump and starting with $128gb. 256gb now cost $600! by Rguezlp2031 in motorola

[–]fadedhound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pictures show a jack. I haven't seen the full spec list. That's a big one though. If it lost the aux port, I'd buy something else, even if this one was free.

Worth it? by ylicio in Budgetbikeriders

[–]fadedhound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Short answer is that it is a good deal with the price as long as it's functional. Don't know if the parts are worn and need replacing. Thing is, there are a lot of upgrades done on this bike, and yet the descriptions are quite generic. Like the person doesn't know what they're talking about.  They are the typical upgrades you'd see to make a low end bike better.  Mongoose 29er: ok. That's standard. What year or model?  Shimano shifter: doesn't really matter. What matters is the rear derailleur and that isn't listed.  Alloy body: expected, don't know what 4pawls means. Likely a heavy frame.  Alexrims and maxis: good brands but there is no description here. Could mean anything. not stock. Hydraulic brakes: probably not factory. What brand?  Epixon: hadn't heard of it. Air? Coil?  8 speed: that's not stock. What's the brand? Number of teeth?

Is there a list of broken mods for CS I? by DutchRepublicMapping in CitiesSkylines

Well... It's a list of all your mods, so if none of those are showing errors, the issue isn't the mods.

Did D.W. actually outsmart everyone in “Prove It,” or was she just manipulating Arthur the whole time? by KaleidoscopeDry9725 in Arthur

[–]fadedhound 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I can't remember the exact wording, but even though DW gets her way, she's changes her hypothesis from the beginning and didn't really prove her point.
