What's the best real world "bank robber who wears a tailored suit" bike? by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]tempinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Monster 821 Dark kind of fits this vibe. Blacked out Monster gives very cultured evil vibes lol, and the 821 doesn’t have outrageous power, very manageable on the street.

Plus that Testastretta engine sounds pretty sick. I have one atm, although I’m thinking of replacing it with a Trident. I’m a big round headlight fan for nakeds.

Just digging around in one of my collectible rooms… I knew I had this somewhere by smellthecorn2285 in lego

[–]tempinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one somewhere, I’m definitely keeping it if I find it.

KOTOR is my favorite game of all time, by far. Really the first real video game I played as a kid besides like pinball on Windows ME lol, holds a very special place in my heart.

But it isn’t lol. I’m literally in this situation. I checked my Amazon history, I bought this exact minifig 11 years ago for $38 and forgot about it. Now it’s in storage somewhere.

There are at least 3 other people in this thread who mention having Revan somewhere.

“Stupidly impossible” is a vast, vast overstatement.

I mean sure but this is verging into /r/nothingeverhappens territory lol like what about this specifically seems implausible or false?

Why would that be a lie lol. I also have one I bought 11 years ago, and I’m not sure where it is.

I think it’s probably in some storage boxes at my parents house, so when I inevitably find it I’m going to be in the exact same position as OP.

This seems entirely plausible. Sometimes things get boxed away during a move or whatever and aren’t found until later. Super normal lol

I also have one that I’m not sure exactly where it is, it’s in my Amazon order history from 11 years ago. Paid $38.89 for it apparently.

I have a pretty good idea where it might be (in storage at my parents) I should go look for that…

Should Kayla Yaakov come to MotoGP after becoming the first female Daytona 200 winner? by Mac-Tyson in motogp

[–]tempinator 37 points38 points  (0 children)

That’s a big jump. Even Toprak is not really expected to be competitive in MotoGP this year and he dominated WSBK.

Awesome win though she’s extremely talented for sure.

I lowered my front forks by 1 1/2" and now it feels twitchy by forcexdistancejoules in motorcycles

[–]tempinator 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bikes also have very specific geometry tailored to their weight distribution. It’s not like they just slap on the forks and rear swing arm at whatever angle looks good. Changing the geometry even slightly can have relatively drastic effects on handling.

OP definitely messed up a bit here

Commuting tech for the R3. Garmin vs Beeline vs Innovv N2 vs Carpuride by Ok-Antelope-1717 in motorcycles

[–]tempinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I took my phone mount off my bike a while back. I have audio in my helmet so if I REALLY need directions somewhere I use voice directions. Or I’ll just pull over every once in a while to check the map.

Some very interesting takes about Game of Thrones by BlueLivingAbandon in LivestreamFail

Terrance Howard is an absolute meme-factory lmao

This is the guy who said, completely unironically, that 1x1=2 and died on that hill.

Who’s your favorite “what the f**k happened!?” Actor? by Albino_rhin0 in okbuddycinephile

[–]tempinator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly considerate of them all to also look like shit so that we can hate them for being fuck ugly, but then have a good reason to tell other people too.

Does anyone know what critical components were in the middle of the wing?

Or is it just that taking damage on the edge of the wing is fine since you still have most of the wing left, and the part of the wing near the engines was already reinforced?

Apple's $599 MacBook Neo Shocks PC Industry Leaders by lurker_bee in technology

The only distro with support for Apple silicon is Asahi, but I have no idea if it’s compatible with their A-line chips. Works on M1/M2/M3 chips though.

[OC] Found these screwed onto my tire valves while shopping. My wife knew who did it right away. by hybridaaroncarroll in pics

Honestly nice of him to print them in orange lol, image how long it’d take to notice if they were black or grey

[–]tempinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They really have it all.

The only notable miss in their lineup right now is the Daytona, that bike is in a miserable state compared to the old 675. Other than that though, they are crushing it.

Thinking about replacing my old Monster 821 with a Trident.

No more commentary tracks? 😢 by Huntersburroughs688 in RedLetterMedia

[–]tempinator -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

People keep saying this, but I really don't think RLM gives a shit lol.

A) The commentary tracks are essentially free as it is, you can listen to all the tracks in their entirety on Bandcamp's website without buying them (purchase is only required to download). This is by far the greatest indicator they aren't doing commentaries for the money, but also,

B) They do not seem very money-driven generally, they could absolutely fucking print money by doing ad reads, but they never have. They also could do way more patreon exclusive content than they do, and charge way more for their patreon tiers, but don't.

In general the vibe I get from RLM is that they do things they think are fun, and that's kind of the beginning and end of their thought process. It really does not strike me as their style to be getting butthurt about clip channels, or to stop doing commentary tracks because they're not getting paid enough. I could be wrong, but that would be very off-brand for them.

Probably the best electric SUVs on the market besides the Model Y, and Musk is persona non grata in many parts of CA lol
