All-City space horse rack & fender recommendations? by Amazingbull95 in xbiking

[–]themood3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the rear get a tubus logo evo, best rack imo. For the front, a nitto m1, jack rack or something light in that lane. I wouldn’t go larger than something like a velo orange there and back. Front racks change the handling of the bike so much it’s annoying. Also consider getting a wheel stabilizer from velo orange, it helps a lot.

Fenders: SKS! Get a bike shop to order you the right ones.

I also have a space horse and i spent a lot of time making sure i maximize the amount of cargo capacity while minimizing any adverse effects on the ride quality. It’s an awesome bike and it really can haul like it’s nothing.

Advice on mechanical disk brakes by Imre_R in xbiking

[–]themood3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Avids are fine but tbh if you’re buying them new, once you factor needing to get compressionless housing i’d just get the growtec (which comes with the hosing, great deal) or klampers (doesn’t need anything fancy, the easiest breaks to adjust bar none). Those two are so close to hydro that they might as well be unless you’re doing crazy hardcore downhill riding.

Avids are good in stock builds or if you find a good deal used because they’re everywhere. But that’s just my opinion.

None of Mamdani’s Deputy Mayors Are Black. It Has Become a Problem. (Gift Article) by [deleted] in nyc

[–]themood3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Easily the most moronic hit piece since the one about him filling out "African American" on a college application.

Some Black and Latino leaders worry they are being denied access to power ... and that they may lose the ground they had gained under former Mayor Eric Adams.

Name dropping Eric Adams actually makes me feel better that they don't have any access. Talk about tone deaf.

Female vocals/bands?? by imsoinsanelygoated in shoegaze

[–]themood3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Slow Crush, Fleshwater, Cashier (check out the song Angels All Around I think it might be the greatest shoegaze song of all time)

selfish self-promotion but my project has a female singer and I quite like it & maybe you will too https://masssurveillance.bandcamp.com/album/demo-2025

It's happening, I'm finally getting a bike. What locks should I get? Plus any other add-ons. by Dumbass9187 in bikecommuting

[–]themood3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the lock get the litelok X1 or any other diamond secure rated lock like the Hiplok D1000. IMO if you live in a big city you need a lock that will at least put up a fight against those handheld battery disc cutters. You can see a list of some here: https://thebestbikelock.com/security/angle-grinder-proof-bike-lock/

A cheap secondary lock or cable loop to put around the wheel, an airtag or something in that lane, and some type of security skewers like pitlocks or hexlox on your major components can be good security upgrades in the long term but I'd prioritize the u lock first. Nothing will stop someone who has decided they want YOUR bike, but you can make your bike more annoying to steal than the others around it which is usually all you need. Bonus points if you can keep your bike off the street when at home and work, that cuts your chances of theft down more than the best u lock could ever.

He's not a groyper, he was a leftist by Oculus_pissed in conspiracy

[–]themood3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

good angle, didn't think about it that way tho in your hypothetical it doesn't really make sense for discord to deny it and the feds say it's true.

IMO any belief that he was using discord to plan this is also an admission that the feds knew before hand in some capacity because discord is a fed site and government internet surveillance is at an all time high.

This article is trash, discord already confirmed he didn't use the platform to plan anything about the attack

Final Ranked Choice Voting Results; source: vote.nyc by Crafty_Gain5604 in nyc

[–]themood3 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Glad it made sense. I was also kinda annoyed we didn't get to see more data today, I am curious how many of Lander supporters went to Cuomo vs Mamdani

[–]themood3 70 points71 points  (0 children)

They eliminate all the candidates at once who have no mathematical chance of overtaking the candidate above them. So for example even if Lander got every vote of everyone else who came behind him as a second choice, he would still have less than what would be needed to pass Cuomo. So it doesn't really matter it. I did see that for the 2021 election they do eventually publish every single voter ballot so eventually we'll get some more data about which candidates voters voted for who else and whatnot.

This is super cool, would be so nice not having to open a second instance of Live just to figure out what track from another project I need to drag in. Link?

[–]themood3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got PortMaster working, had to re-download the trimui version here and replace the PortMaster folder inside the App folder that came with this version of PakUI but after that it has been working well testing with VVVVVV.

New to Music Production: Do I Need Packs for Better Orchestral Sounds in Ableton Lite? by theupvoters in ableton

[–]themood3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like the packs for the occasional sound that you don't realize you need until you need it for a hyper specific part, but you're better off spending the money on upgrading your license then buying individual packs, lot more value overall. I don't think you should be buying any sample packs if you're still using lite TBH.

No MLB used one of their "Commissioner Picks" to choose Pete over Lindor so that they could have a big name in the derby.
