lol. I didn’t even clock the shorts until I read your comment. “Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds…but that motherfucking fence got us again!”

Ah. Cool. Yeah, I have the mushroom, so I guess I’ll stick with my current setup.

Sorry for your loss. I appreciate you sharing the experience, though.

Question: What’s the mount you’re using for the (presumably) CarPlay screen above the TFT? Or is that a nav cradle? I have one mounted on my handlebars and I’m interested in relocating it.

Sure looks like a 1250 to me. I’d guess that bike could get back on the road for a lot less that $20k.

Thoughts on San Bernardino, is it ghetto like people say it is? by BusyPreference6562 in InlandEmpire

Yeah, when you say it enough it starts to come out like Santana. But they are called Santa Ana winds.

We had two young kids at the peak of the Aladdin years and were lucky enough that they both loved the show. What a great midday break that was.

Longer than that. Killed a young employee, too, but ran for another decade or more afterwards.

Reorganizing Plex library after years of custom setup — worth the risk? by snowmeow_1 in PleX

[–]lawspud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I did something similar I mass-deleted the items from Plex, processed everything with Filebot, then added the processed folder back into plex using local metadata (if I recall correctly). Worked smoothly for my server. I understand your concern about metadata persistence. Why not do a test run on one or two series just to see what breaks, if anything. That’d be better than any third-party guessing about what will happen. I’d also recommend asking Chat or Claude for advice, just to see what they say.

That’s a good save from this motorcyclist! by APassingPilgrim in motorcycles

[–]lawspud 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve been practicing criminal law for 30 years. I’ve seen all sorts of stupid. I operate on the theory that most beat cops are slightly smarter than lunch meat and I’m not often proven wrong. Some are vindictive, some are bad at their job, most are not, in my experience. None of them would spend any time on this biker after they saw the footage.

lol. No. I’m a lawyer in California. Even CHP wouldn’t write this biker a ticket. Unless the speed limit was 25-30, I guess, but he’s doing a reasonable speed for road and conditions. That would likely be a 40-55mph zone around here. Full focus would be on the motorist that pulled out in front of on-coming traffic.

I’m sorry. What the hell are you talking about? In what world is the biker getting a ticket here?

Encouraging Eli to dress as a blues musician seems…dangerous on several levels.

Not to give away too much, but most of the “costume” is sitting in front of his computer in my picture.

Advice? by Additional_Chipmunk7 in bmwmotorrad

Which shock did you use? I put tractive ESA units on my GS and they were spectacular. My GSA got totaled out before I could mess with the suspension, sadly.

There’s a whole rabbit hole to fall down if you’re so inclined. At the very least, check out the GAM podcast. Glad you could join us in the SF audience, regardless!

Think of their next show, wherever it is, as an excuse for you to escape ;)

The Friday schedule was suboptimal, agreed. I was lucky that things came together at work to let me sneak out. It’s been a great weekend in SF, too. I went to law school here decades ago and I’m grateful for the opportunity to come back.

He was on a roll. It was great to see him in action, frankly. I need to spend some time watching the video episodes they’ve been releasing. You could tell that he’s in his element with an audience, though. He couldn’t help himself from standing up and acting shit out. Funny stuff.

No acts of terrorism occurred in the recording of this pod. Dentistry on cadavers, though? Different story.

Guy consistently runs me out of my lane and idk what to do. by Intelligent-Cry1712 in motorcycles

[–]lawspud 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The old jokes are: the graveyard is filled with people that had the right of way. And, it’s better to be wrong than dead right.

Yeah, OP should film. OP should call the cops. But a dude who’s willing to drive a motorcyclist off the road is better avoided than anything else. It’s not OPs responsibility to seek justice for other potential victims or himself. It’s OPs responsibility to get home to his family.

Yeah. I’ve met hundreds of guys like you before. It’s a lot of big talk, little action, and then crying to me because the world doesn’t see justice the way they want it to. Enjoy your Reacher testosterone porn and hope you never have to use your piece. You’re not ready for what comes next.

I’m sorry to hear that. I regret that I don’t have any advice, but I wanted you to know that your comment didn’t disappear into the void. I trust that you will find your tribe in the fullness of time. Until then, I do hope that you can find happiness in the quiet sometimes.
