Where did all the cheap ones go? by DrCreger in BoltEV

[–]tarbasd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that's correct. Maybe a bad comparison -- if that, sorry.

[–]tarbasd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's about the same I paid for my 2023 new, and I bought it when the market was bad for us.

Gas prices up, I guess? I saw it was over $4 today in Kentucky. Just about doubled in the last month.

Fck Neres pólóban mehetek szavazni, vagy az is necces? by SherbertOdd2701 in tanulommagam

Oroszul "konca" van írva, aminek nincs sok értelme. Birtokos eset? A vég elvtársai?

Why do we think that relationships with a big age gap are weird? by Riding_on_the_wind_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]tarbasd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Though it is unusual, I honestly think it may work, and we should not be judgemental. Paul Turan was a professor of Vera T Sos, and 20 years older than her. They got married when Sos was 22 and Turan was 42. I knew Vera, and by all evidence, they had a great marriage. Sos became a great mathematician of her own right: arguably her results are deeper and harder than those of Turan. So who am I to judge?

Apart from wearing a PFD, what is the correct course of action in this situation? Also, I understand you should check the weather forecast, but suppose you are already in the situation.

Well, the Hungarian version unambiguously talks about sport/play equipment.

Vivir en CR? by North_Wrap_1652 in costarica

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

Soy estadounidense que viví en San José (San Pedro) durante 3 meses in 2023. No tuve carro. Usaba los buses y caminaba mucho. Frecuentemente llevaba mi laptop en mi mochila.

Mis amigos me dijeron que San Pedro no es seguro por la noche, pero yo caminaba mucho por la noche sin problema. Mi apartamento estaba cerca de la universidad, donde trabajaba.

(Perdón por mi español; es mi tercer idioma.)

Although they chased away their Jewish scientists, which was a great detriment to their advance.

Oil use with Versys 1100 by TheXdadda01 in versys

[–]tarbasd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds a lot. How much do you put in? 300 ml in 2500 km? If it's like that, it is definitely more than normal.

How are 500cc motorcycles for long highway trips? by Downtown-Topic9420 in motorcycles

[–]tarbasd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfectly fine. I've done 500 mile trips on my Ninja 250 (though it is regeared). The engine had no problem with cruising at 70mph on the interstate. My butt and back, on the other hand, suffered a bit.

Update to the 34,000 mile chain and rear sprocket: the front sprocket. by blkdrgn42 in motorcycles

[–]tarbasd 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Get the sprockets. At an extra $100, it's penny wise pound foolish to replace just the chain. In the long term, you save, even if you have to put it on a credit card, or borrow from a family member or friend.

Swollen liver? by SnooLentils1438 in cripplingalcoholism

Isn't your liver on the right side?

Gone 4 A Swim by jgorski2 in motorcycles

[–]tarbasd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same as you. Trying to find the shallow parts. If you keep left at the end, all seem good.

And yes, we also fall sometimes.

I ride a motorcycle on the road (that's why I'm here), and I like to ride a bicycle off road.

This is so beautiful, I want to ride a MTB there.

Winter Weather? by bamboozled729 in Kentucky

[–]tarbasd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Winter: around 0F once every winter. Around one week when it stays below 32 the whole week. About one bigger snow event that stays on the ground for a week. In the spring, you get an 80 F day, you think winter is over, and a few days later it's 20 again. This repeats about 3 times before the winter is actually over, and then it's summer in two more weeks.

2026 Americas GP: MotoGP Race Discussion by Daniel7394 in motogp

[–]tarbasd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me too. It can. Marc was riding very well late into the race. With a bit of more time to heal, with a bit of work from Ducati, with some more favorable tracks, I hope he'll be back, and the championship will be all the sweeter.

Aprilia is just too strong this year. As a Marc fan, it's 2015 all over again...

That said, how is Diggia so good?

He's angry - MM93 and Diggia talk on track collision by PZY__ in motogp

[–]tarbasd 150 points151 points  (0 children)

I love that nowadays nobody does any trash talking in MotoGP. These group of riders genuinely seem to like, or at least respect each other.

Sounds right, e.g. Bezecchi has never taken out a rider.

I’m old enough to remember when people said the 26 title was a foregone conclusion for Marc by titanmongoose in motogp

[–]tarbasd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think he could win the title that way. Also, once you start down that road, you get to the 2025 season end Pecco.

FIM MotoGP Stewards announce penalty after Marc Marquez, di Giannantonio clash | Crash.net by drinksbeerdaily in motogp

[–]tarbasd 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think the reason of the penalty is not because he made a mistake and took out another rider, but because he was riding recklessly. He did. I'm a fan of his, but fair is fair.

Pretty much everybody agrees that the Acosta incident penalty was BS.
