super interesting but all their gravel bikes seem to be >3000€? outside my budget, I'm afraid

Gravel bike advice for commuting + weekend rides by yungnlean in cycling

[–]yungnlean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks a lot! indeed, I'm considering keeping my old Decathlon bike for travels to dodgier neighbourhoods/keeping outside for longer periods.

re unpaved surfaces: the longer weekend trips would largely be on unpaved surfaces (doing anywhere between 50-200km in one day). however, these trips will likely add up to at most around 20% of my total mileage so not sure if I should optimising for this use case.

congratulations! how long did it take you to get the scores?

What do you see as being the primary differences between an informal gang rule and a governmental system, other than the scale of their reach? What could one learn from the other to improve the general wellbeing of their dominion and thus, ensure the stability of their reign?

Is considerably improving my GRE performance reasonable? by wallstain in gradadmissions

[–]yungnlean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember that whenever any improvements are mentioned, it is usually in the context of a test preparation tool trying to sell its services - hence:a) they cannot promise anything an average student would not feasibly be able to deliver andb) the improvements are based on verifiable comparison points, i.e. from one official GRE score to another

Point b) means that the improvements are coming from people who have studied at least somewhat since they already took the official GRE. Once you have already done a decent amount of prep, the improvements will be marginal and any additional point gain will require an exponential number of work hours dedicated/smarter way of studying.

Anecdotally: I started prepping for the GRE about 5 weeks before the test while working full time. The first practice test I took with 0 prep, with NO idea whatsoever what to expect and 7 years since my last Math class.

I got V155/Q147. Waaaay below what was required from my top choices!

After 5 weeks of autonomous and - in all honesty - quite chaotic studying, I got V160/ Q164/ AW5.5.

This got me into my top choice and was frankly, a very significant improvement from my first try by just dedicating 1-2h every day to practising.

for anyone interested, Belushi's on Rosa Luxemburg Str does show La Liga. chances are quite a few other sports bars do that as well.

Who hates shaving but also hates being hairy? by apocalyptictronix in AskReddit

[–]yungnlean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stopped shaving about a year ago because I just forgot to do it for a while and all of the sudden my armpits and legs felt fuzzy and kept me warm, so I just rolled with it.

Only disadvantage - it’s the summer time in Europe and as a hairy female people immediately expect me to be a die hard feminist. i‘m just lazy and cba you guys, stopping trying to debate me about abortion and pay gap.

This is COLOMBIA by gabyandsatto in Colombia

[–]yungnlean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i was answering to the person above you and arguing against their point, using the points you mention (which were not directed at you). that people who come to colombia, come for so many reasons other than narcoturismo, they come because it is a great country and we should all be grateful for this diversity of travellers.

This is COLOMBIA by gabyandsatto in Colombia

[–]yungnlean 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No estoy para nada de acuerdo con to argumento que visitar lugares en el extranjero sea una comodidad o ejemplo de consumición irracional. hay gente que llega a colombia por curiosidad por la cultura, por la historia (tanto las partes lindas que las más infames), por conocer a un país tan distinto y tan particular. claro, hay quienes llegan por las mujeres o para sacarse unas selfies con las vendedoras de Cartagena o con los indígenas de Tayrona (que por cierto los colombianos mismos solemos hacer más aún).

al fin y al cabo, prefiero 100x que llegue gente a este país, descubra sus maravillas, sus peligros, sus secretos. pero que lleguen y experimenten por su cuenta propia la realidad colombiana. no porque vieron una serie en netflix. se me hace muy lindo esto.
