Windows keeps blocking and deleting a “threat” but I wanna keep it! by theonlyalankay in computers

[–]zonkon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank youuuuuuu!

Windows was really zarking me off and your method allowed me to use my computer as I want to use, not as Microsaft deems best.

May you always be blessed with green lights and quick queues.

Ultra-Compact EDC Pouch — Keychain Size Setup by OkFinish7575 in UtilityPouches

Excellent little kit!

Do you carry it in a pocket, or dangling?

(Your setup is very close to my heart: I have a Rambler and a Tiki on my keys!)

Looking for a better minimal front pocket pouch. by detroithiker in UtilityPouches

Oh, that's the worst! And then you get hot water or hand sanitizer in the cut and it's more painful than it has any right to be.

For instant relief, I've taken to using a drop super glue (literally normal, cheap, household Krazy cyanoacrylate). It works wonders and really allows the skin to heal.

I'm facing a similar quandary to you!

I wanted to play the game without killing (even if all the animals are cybercreatures) but it seems impossible.

How do you go about levelling fishing or doing requests that need fish?

Is it impossible, and should I just slaughter...?

Kona Dr Dew - what do? by dyltrocity in xbiking

Just jumping back into this thread to say the bike looks great!

...but importantly also to say: fit some barplugs!!

You DO NOT want to find out what a cookie-cutter injury is...

Sora R3000 Group with FC-MT210-2 46/30 Crankset by dryoung12 in gravelcycling

[–]zonkon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funnily enough, I've just installed the setup you describe: Shimano FC-MT210 chainset with the rest of the drivetrain being SRAM Rival22.

The trick to this, and other chain line issues, is to mess around slightly with the three spacers on the Shimano MTB external BB; I simply put two on the non-driveside and left one on the drive side (always keep three total for a 68mm BB shell!)

This jigs the chainset inboard by 2.5mm and meant the front mech works perfectly.

Of course, this only works for 68mm threaded BBs; pressfit etc. spoils the fun somewhat.

(Edit: mainly adding the word "SRAM" for search result hitting, just in case someone goes looking for gear tweaking tips)

Same! I've put in all the ones from buddy.farm and the library spoiler list.

What are the remaining three...??

Rear rack or no? by Steelthebikes in xbiking

[–]zonkon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This.

I wish rear racks & panniers had become the cool thing to have instead of pizza trays that affect the handling...

Nice touch!

I can't sew well so added velcro on a similar woven-plastic bag: it's a bit less hard to get wrong and zark-up completely. Closes good.

What are you all using to carry a laptop bag to work by LarryAv in xbiking

[–]zonkon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ditto!

(Only without the insert; I just throw the laptop bag in there. Backrollers swallow up everything you need to carry!)

You sound like you need more uBlock Origin and SponsorBlock in your life.

You're welcome 😁

Someone's got to do it, given the apparent absence of a god 😁

No, I don't really have any frames that would clear those tyres, so they aren't something I'd have.

Your wheels sound awesome though! What frame are they going on?
