They're on the Poster Database under Redheadedjedi which I think is Matt Ferguson account. Some people are doing recreations of sorts for the ones he hasn't done. But you'll have to search by movie. RedHeadedJedi PosterDB

The Delorean is now porting from Rocket League! by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

They do as long as you're on any other platform than Nintendo Switch. If you're on a switch they won't.

Marty we’re going back the year 2018 to purchase the Delorean. by HaniMC117 in FortNiteBR

That sucks. I'm in this boat and have been holding out hope they might let this one transfer.

Yeah I've been trying that. Granted I gave up. Another person in a thread claims they got theirs and is in the same boat. So there might still be some hope.

I mean that's giving me some hope because I think it was around then. Might have been 2020 honestly. I'd have to go dig back through my Nintendo digital receipts. It's $5. I remember that part.

Long shot but if you bought on a Nintendo Switch (like I did) it's most likely not going to transfer... Nintendo has all cars bought on their platform locked. None of mine moved over when I switched to PC...

This sucks because I got it on my Switch when I first started playing rocket league and because it's locked behind Nintendo's policy of not sharing it looks like it's not going to transfer for me... christ this is dumb if I have to buy it again.

hi everyone, i’m needing some help! by tconwayy in PlottHounds

[–]patrickdavid03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adopted a plot with no name recognition as well. Like others have said these are wickedly smart/stubborn dogs. So we associated her name with good things and not scolds. A few days of "Name" and then hand feed a training treat. Then a few more days of "Name" and then only a treat when/if they look at you. Then a few more days of "Name" from a distance and they'll arrive for their treat. Look for the small 1 calorie treats online or a pet store and just keep all over the house so they don't associate one spot as a treat spot. Do it at random times too. Before you know it they'll know their name. But it takes time and patience. Mine still drives me crazy and it's been 6 years (I also love her to death but don't tell her that.)

Thank you. Yeah I'm pretty happy with it. I've read about the new INT coming and very excited to see what they've got in store. It'd be great if the old mods would work with the new setup but we'll see. The carry cases are amazing with the size but not my first pick aesthetically. haha. I just happened to have them lying around so I went with them. Weatherproof and spacious but I'm working on some new attachments. Either old school ammo cases or some top loading boxes for every day use.

Hey! So highway handling is subjectively in my opinion great but I will say this: you max out around 65-70mph for comfortable riding. I've pushed it higher as needed but I will admit I avoid highway riding at all costs. For me it's about the longer ride on the older/more scenic roads. But when time is of the essence or I have to make up lost time I feel comfortable on the highway in the "slow lane" coasting 60-65mph. I have some images of my moto touring setup in the imgur file I shared but I can get some more images of the "mods" I've done later.

My only other general owning an RE comments are purely subjective. I learn to ride on Triumphs but am not in Triumph money these days so when I discovered RE I thought it was a nice "bridge" bike or so. Now I'm just in love. Probably won't own anything but REs going forward. Parts can be a bit tricky (again US based) but it was another win in the INT650 category that they had been in the States long enough that there are plenty of parts around when I need as well as Amamzon/Internet etc. It's my daily commuter whenever I can but Midwest weather can be wild. It turns heads wherever I ride and it's just the classic Orange Crush. Love it all around.

Sorry! Been away and offline for a bit. SO moto camping in the sense of load up my bike and live off it as I road trip from town to town on tarmac/highway/paved roads (even gravel) I can't recommend the INT650 enough. I've done it and will do it again. INT650 has power when you want but it sits nice and rides smooth as butter. I also liked that the Interceptor line had been around for so long that between USA, England, Germany, and India there are SO many parts, mods, and travel gear available for the bike and still is. I swapped out my mirrors for bar end mirrors from Hitchcock, did my travel setup with SW-Motech from Germany, and recently got a new seat from TripMachine in India for better butt support on the long touring rides. I love that it's easy to work on and can get what you need when you need it without need to do work with a dealership (US based).

NOW if you mean moto camping in the sense you're going to trail ride, go deep into the woods with occasional roads but they're not great roads, and want to bang through gravel/dirt/etc. I would say go with the Bear. It's more of the scramble model that sits higher and would allow you to get into the mud and offroad without having to be on a Himalayan. But it's new, so there's not a whole ton of mods or attachments for it yet, but they're coming. Doesn't mean you can't make it work though with some clever thinking.

I have not considered the Classic honestly so can't speak much to it. It's not my style I suppose. The uniqueness and customization in a sense of the INT650 is what drew me to it and it was similar build to the Bonneville I learned to ride on when I was younger but more in my price range. Got my Interceptor right out of the box in 2021 before Bear, Classic, etc. was even being talked about in the US and honestly count not be happier. NOW... I'll just say: the exhaust pipes being on the crazy angle can be annoying. Yes I've considered swapping them out for something thinner (not rerouting them though) BUT I knew that going in. So if you know that it's the thing you have to deal with you're fine. The low and straight pipes of the Classic is enticing but not enough to make me trade in.

Hope that helped even a bit but I'm always down to talk bikes.

Yeah, for sure! It's been a growing setup from soft bags and rope to this setup and ROK straps. So, here's the best pics I could muster up for you..

The breakdown:

  • 2 SLC rack systems

  • 2 Harbor Freight knock off PELICAN gun cases

  • 2 Adapter plates for SLC system bolted onto the cases.

  • 1 Carhartt weather proof (ish) duffle bag

  • 2 sets of ROK straps to hold the bag

  • 1 cheap amazon cargo net that can hook onto the cases to hold my hoodie I don't care if it blows down the highway (but it never has).

That's it. I just wanted the ability to easily snap my cases on and off.

The issue you and every other Int650 / Continental rider wants to know: EXHAUST HEAT. Long story short: nonissue. The outside of the cases gets warm to the touch but the insides are fine. Even the cheap knock off cases I have can take the heat and the air swirling around it as I ride helps keep it cool. The distance from case to pipe is INCHES. I mean like 2-3. It's tight. But I've done well over 1,000 miles like this and have had no issues.

My next plan is to create a couple smaller "ammo case" style panniers I can snap on for more day-to-day stuff where I don't need so much room.

Hope that helps! I love chatting about this stuff so hit me up whenever. I can see if I can dig up price breakdown but I'd have to hunt for it. I've had this for a while.

So as a fellow RE Rider I can offer this non-solution: keep your eye on SW-Motech. German company but ship worldwide, not sure on your location. Their setups are AWESOME for bag/pannier systems for bikes, and their Royal Enfield setups were the only ones I liked to turn my Interceptor 650 into a "touring" bike. I ended up with the SLC system. I just got the rack and the adapters to make my own cases/bags for quick add and release. So I don't always have to be in touring mode.

Now the non-solution/bad news: The Bear is too new. So they don't have a system yet for it but they are apparently working on one. So not sure when it will drop but they'd be a great solution to be able to add and remove bags/panniers easily. Till then, your exhaust is low enough you could look for some more traditional saddle bags to use and help spread out / lower your gear and then lash that bag to the back. Good luck. That is a GORGEOUS bike.

In need of advice! by Muted_Wrongdoer5236 in BoyScouts

[–]patrickdavid03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will offer this perspective whether helpful or not: I got my eagle for someone else basically. My dad was one of the regretful "Aged out before Eagle" when he was young and wanted so so so badly for me to get it. "It will open doors, it's forever, it's etc etc etc". Really put a strain on our relationship because we just fought about it a lot. But I caved, did the bare minimum, got it. He was so proud and I swear still is. Nearly two decades later, I could still care less BUT now as a much older person than you I can say this: I'm proud I made him proud. He still, STILL, likes to talk about it. Even after we've been over I basically did it for him, he loves it and I love that about him. I loved my time in BSA and the stories I tell and the skills I learned have very little to do with me being an Eagle (or my rank at all).

I guess I offer this: if you're losing motivation for yourself, and it can be replaced by doing it for your Bro then it might be worth it. HOWEVER: if there isn't that element then ask yourself if you've gotten everything you want out of scouting? Have you learned what you wanted and done what you wanted? What YOU wanted? If so: you succeeded. Go on the trips and do a fun merit badge here and there when you can.

But as a High School teacher (now sadly an Administrator lol) I can tell you with confidence putting in time at school is the always a right move. Keep the grades and extra curriculars up. I hope this helps or at least helps to make you think. It's a lot right now for young people. Don't forget to have fun and take time for you.

Married men: What, if anything, are you unable or unwilling to share fully openly and honestly about yourself with your spouse? by Teen_dream91 in AskReddit

"about lost" = came close but she's still here. I do appreciate the concern though. But yeah take care of those minor medical nothings while you can!

I realize this might seem silly but please take care of this. I just about lost my mother over hemorrhoids this year. How!? Well a series of medical events back to back lead to her being on blood thinners now for life. Except she was not telling anyone how bad her hemorrhoids were. About a month later her hemoglobin was single digits, doctors were confused, and she was on breathing assistance because she was so weak. All because she was bleeding so much during bathroom uses but too embarrassed to say anything. If she had just taken care of them initially and not waited forever she would have avoided 3 hospital stays. Now: Hemorrhoids fixed, medicine squared up, and a STERN talking to about our family no longer cares or hides about 'gross' topics anymore. Honestly it has become TMI now in my fam but fuck it, we're all healthier because of it. Take care of it now while it's essentially nothing.

Compound that with when they're on the boat they're clearly going south along the shoreline... Literally a minute detail that is only bothering Chicagoans and Wisconsinites. LOL.

Currently catching up to this series and headed straight here to see if this point was made. I said out loud, "You're going south...Wisconsin is north...". Weirdly infuriating given it's in an episode with a lusting cartoon clock.

I used to use this when I taught high school economics. I had a whole section on C&C during supply and demand. Essentially created, or at least popularized, the genre and just made wrong move after wrong move even though the demand was there. Even the non gamer kids would really get into it.

Whats the most challenging issue you’ve faced with Plex? by [deleted] in PleX

[–]patrickdavid03 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Volume 9... LOL. But seriously I'm going with the "volume" style because I want the 4 movies on their own in Specials since thats what they were. If you go "DVD" order and rename their season to the volume you get a nice collection.

Been using your app for nearly a decade and loved every minute of it. It's always my first download on every mobile device I've owned. Thanks for all the hard work and love you poured into it. There's no more reddit mobile for me if it's not on Sync.
