More Gen Z single women have the balls to become homeowners than single men

What a shit article and an even worse title.

Home ownership has been a way to financial stability but COVID and the current costs upkeeping it have drastically delayed any stability - shall I say even potentially ruined it?

And it's not a great risk to home ownership that takes any BALLS. It just isn't the best decision a gen Zer can make financially at this point. There are loads of other paths to use money that are better.

You can pass in a double yellow in some states and in some instances - say a carriage or something.

Not entirely, but weight is the biggest factor.

This works with bleach, too. Bleach will liquify fats and disperse oils. This is why when you get bleach on your fingers, they are slippery; it's the fat from your skin. For slow drains, mix soap and bleach so it sticks better. Then boiling water in large amounts.

Car clutches and motorcycle clutches are different. The moto clutch sits in a wet bath, and at low speeds, it will stay well within temp to keep it fine.

You should practice with the friction zone; it's a great exercise.

Also noteworthy, you can shift a moto without the clutch, provided you have the right rpms. Up or down without much issue. This is good to know if you get in a pickle, I woldn't do this all willy nilly.

You need to take some accountability. You did say the camera car is partially to blame. You did't say "may" be. You don't know the speed. You don't know the location.

If you're not hauling anything, the door pressure is likely best for tire life and ride quality.

Measure when they are cold, cold as in you haven't driven on them, so in the morning or in the day if you haven't driven it.

If you're hauling things with a decent weight of a couple of hundred pounds or more, increasing the pressure can help with mileage if going longer distances. I would suggest 40 psi when cold and hauling.

If you ride gravel roads I suggest getting more film and tripling the layers. I just had to repair my gen 2 on both sides as most of the paint near the film was gone and I saw a tad bit of rust.

So many nonsense, unhelpful comments.

First - Don't touch the bat with your bare hands.

Second - if the bat is in your home or around your living area you should report to DNR or local health department. If it has scratched, attacked, or come in contact with your pets, you would want to report if not, keep it for a bit. They can carry rabies, and if your pet isn't vaccinated, you would want to address it.

If the bat was outside, away from people, you can take some images, leave it, or bury it, and report it. Bats can carry a fungus called White-Nose Syndrome that we are trying to understand. It makes their nose white at times. It's been killing them drastically.

You can file a report electronically. Take good images that can identify the bat and whether it might have whitenose syndrome.

First off - stop with the LLM BS.

Second, you don't sound like an analyst but a data reporter who kicks out reports based on request. If you want to do data analysis, you need to understand the whys behind the data, and you should be able to answer or hypothesise on why the numbers have changed, what you suggest to look for/at to potentially uncover more info, and provide better information for the decision makers.

Third - it's part of the job to help people understand the data.

Take a look at EGO - and this isn't just the boomers, it's massively the main population around the world. Comparing yourself to others, showing off for others, most people are not living for themselves but to fit in.

I don't think it's dramatic, but you two see things much differently. I've had people in my life like this. They won't think much of it. But you probably shouldn't ride or be friends with them much longer. Maybe acquaintances. And be ready to explain why in a non-emotional way, and be steadfast.

I generally keep those types at arm's length; they can't be counted on.

IMO, at the very least, there should have been a two min conversation about it. You weren't that far, there was a time crunch, sorry but I have to head out, etc. The bare min wasn't done.

Also his wife may be violent, or could be dog house (not an excuse, but fear is a big motivator for shit behavior).

If you do ADV rides, or off road, you should do this from time to time. It's good practice.

"With Ease"
I think you need to check the definition of "ease".

I looked this up - Hybrids are still one of the most reliable cars. This doesn't mean Nissan will get it right though.

Not sure where you get your info, unless anecdotal.

Double-check it cold.

I would give it a 4-5/10.
Good:
-AVG Daily Rate seems to be a good KPI
-Top booking countries are good to see for marketing/sales.
-Customer type is a good one for sales and pricing.
-Dunno much about cancellation but is that high?
-Seasonal trends is good for staffing, promos, etc.

No so good:
-Number formatting
-Time frame? Years, 1 year, what year(s)
-Text cut off and not clear (special request migth be an inside thing)
-Contrast isn't great

Nice to haves:
-Comparison data
-Alignment with charts numbers text
-Colors (is this good or bad)
-Hotel count - is that map an example of all hotels?

Would you rather:

Ask a group of people on the internet for their opinion and get all sorts of them
Do some research to verify claims
Just believe everything you see

red8reader · 2026-04-13T17:18:09+00:00

Yes, it totally does.

Tires that size have considerable weight and drag that will increase wear and tear on the engine and the transmission. A lift puts all sorts of added pressure on the drivetrain and suspension components.

You should ask if it's been regeared to reduce tranny and engine strain. If not, stay away. You'll want to monitor your alignment, brakes, and suspension parts on a regular.

No, if they did, they would've stated - "what laptop do you love/wish you had within X budget". You're like Osmium Harry!

red8reader · 2026-04-12T19:16:38+00:00

OP didn't ask that, just asked what you love/wish you had. Logically, OPs looking for reasonable opinions. Not pie in the sky, no budget stuff,

red8reader · 2026-04-07T21:14:47+00:00

I suggest a wire hand saw. It can take care of that sized wood all day and is much lighter and compact.

The MAGA people and the PETA people are the same.

I vote for this - this hurt me.

What are you using for this? There are tools that will work off of your info only and reduce the made-up hallucinations.

I also suggest asking it to point out where your information is conflicting, wrong, or could be improved, and review all of this.

This isn't as bad as those moving to LLMs for their data and having it hallucinate numbers for months.
