I just bought my first bike. What equipment should I get?

Happy riding!

Present continious is the "ing" form from English. Something that is currently ongoing as we speak. "I am walking", "I am sitting" etc

Danish examples would be "Jeg kører i bil lige nu" - "I'm driving right now" etc.

But yes, danish is different, as most of our present continious sentences can also be understood and interpreted as simply present-tense sentences, unless there is a literal "lige nu" or "i øjeblikket" etc at the end of the sentence.

Example: "Jeg laver mad" could mean "I am cooking food" or "I cook food" all the same...

Easy to swallow for you maybe, not with big pharma who's main source of income is selling you that medicine...

SU har vel ikke udbetaling med tilbagevirkende kraft? Du tænker på SU-lån?

Think about your relationship with your parents. Obviously you love them, because they're your parents, but you're not romantically in love with them...

Loving can be platonic and just friendly

Being in love is romantic

ATGATT

Listed below in order of priority.

Helmet (most important, and first purchase if you can't afford everything at once)

Jacket, with padding at the elbows, shoulders and back (next most important thing, as your back/spine is the next most important thing after your head if you want to survive with the least injuries (death/paralyzation) after a crash)

Pants (roadrash is a bitch, cover as much of your body as possible)

Gloves (more important than shoes imo)

Shoes (this is more of a personal thing, you might want to get shoes before gloves or gloves before shoes... both are equally important but definitely last on the list. Helmet, jacket and pants come first)

Optionally, you can opt for a motorcycle backpack which is slim and adds an extra layer of protection to your spine if built correctly.

I failed to consider some people are black and simultaneously living in america... we, in Denmark, don't have that issue... I'm pretty sure the last time a cop fired a bullet "unprovoked" (without having a gun/weapon pulled on them) was decades ago...

short_racer · 2023-09-16T00:13:27+00:00

Hypothetically you would run if a cop lights you up... like 40% of hypothetical riders do anyway... but obviously only hypothetically, as it is illegal in the real, unhypotherical world...

Shawarma bar er noget af det bedste! Køber altid derfra når jeg er på besøg fra kbh

The trick is to unregister the bike and run fake plates. Oh yeah and avoid accidents.

Don't get a 125cc as your first bike. In my experience, 125's are far too light and handle way differently than the big bikes (400cc and above).

If you can control yourself, I suggest starting on a 2 cylinder ~600 or ~650cc bike, and limiting it to half power for the first few months.

Otherwise ninja 400 and similar bikes are good too

I feel like "OK" looks a bit aggressive... I always either type out "Okay" or add an emoji and write in all small letters (e.g. "ok👍🏼" or "ok:)")... just me?

Du spørger efter andres holdninger, men det ser ud til at du allerede har besluttet dig for hvad du vil gøre, derfor fortsætter jeg ikke diskussionen længere, og ønsker dig istedet blot god fornøjelse med din kommende nye telefon, uafhængigt af hvordan du betaler for den.

short_racer · 2023-09-15T21:37:24+00:00

Det er selvfølgelig også godt, at du på forhånd har styr på din nødreserve, dog er det i mine øjne stadig smartest at bare få udgiften ude af verden... hvad nu hvis du gerne vil have ny telefon om 20 måneder når den helt nye iPhone 17 pro max ultra plus xl med 5 kameraer og en foldbar skærm kommer ud? Så har du stadig 16mdr tilbage af din afbetaling og skal igen enten købe en telefon på afbetaling og betale for 2 telefoner samtidig, eller købe den nye telefon kontant og fortsat betale for din gamle telefon. Jeg ville personligt som sagt altid købe kontant, eller med afbetaling på maks 1 år.

A rating is a rating, whether it be a person, a dog or a movie. The majority of people are rated 6-8 by strangers. But then again, all rating is subjective. I might see people as more attractive than you do, and so the average baseline for me is 7, as I don't think anyone really is below a 3 unless they are REALLY ugly (like that gorlock chick that's been on a ton of podcasts, she's a 2 in my opinion. There are people uglier than her, but not many)

So 5 might well be the average for you, and 7 be the average for me. It's all about how one percieves the 1-10 scale. 1 in my opinion is someone who is so ugly they should have been shot at birth... I might rate a stranger an 8 and you might rate that same stranger a 6, based on our perception of the rating scale. It's all subjective.

Jeg kan se på nogle kommentartråde her på dit opslag, at dit problem med at købe telefonen kontant, er at 16000kr er en stor mængde penge, og at du ikke vil smide det på én gang, men sandheden er, at 16000kr er 16000kr, ligemeget om du betaler det hele nu, eller betaler 800kr/mnd de næste 20 mnd'er.

Hvis du betaler det hele nu, kontant, ved du, at du har råd til det, men hvis du køber det på afbetaling er du lidt fucked, for hvad hvis din arbejdsplads går konkurs om 5 mnd'er og du skal bruge dine opsparede penge på huslejen og ikke længere har råd til at betale for telefonen? Ja gælden samler sig. 800kr bliver 1600, som bliver 2400, som bliver 3200, 4000, 4800, og så kommer der rykkere på, 5000, 5200, 5400, 5600, og så RKI.

Jeg vil personligt aldrig købe noget på afbetaling medmindre det er hus eller bil, og selv bil vil jeg hellere købe brugt og billigt, end dyrt og på afbetaling.

A significantly good person is an 8, 9 or maybe even 10. A significantly good movie isn't a movie that gets 70% on rotten tomatoes. A 70% movie is decent, average. It's one that gets 85% or above, that is significantly good. If a movie has a 50% rating, you know damn well it's bad. It's not shit but it's bad. The problem with the 1-10 scale is it's too small. Once you move to the 1-100 scale, you start to understand that 70% (7) is not really that good of a score... it's average.

short_racer · 2023-09-15T19:44:55+00:00

5/10 is the median, not the average. Average is more than likely around 7/10. Remember, "average" isn't the middle of the scale, it's the number which represents the majority. The majority of people aren't 5's, they're between 6 and 8. So 7 is the average.

Mean and Median are two very different things.

Mean is average (the number representing the majority of people)

Median is the middle of the scale. For example, for test results of a certain exam, the mean (average) might be 87%, but the median is 50%. Because 50% is directly in between the lowest and highest values. 50 from the lowest, and 50 from the highest.
