    @klaus said in My project for the next 2 weeks: Well, I do know that valve converters exist, but I've never seen them in the form of a cap. Also, I'm not sure about the situation when such a converter would be useful on the road. The compressed air at gas stations usually has a too low pressure for road bike tires. That's true of modern gas stations here I think, too, but at older ones, they don't throttle your pressure. And I've been stranded while way out there before, it sucks. I use CO2 because I'm edgy like that. I've gotten good at not freezing my hand off!

    @jolly said in Privilege is wearing $200 sneakers when you’ve never had job: If you find that a racist statement, it says a lot more about you, than it does the mayor... White lefties always know exactly how racists are thinking and reacting... just ask them. Funny how they're so sure.

    Well, if you're painting it, it will certainly contain the word "Trump".

    @copper said in Domestic Terrorist: I think we are finally getting to the point where most people hate these progressives, or at least recognize them for what they are. Yes. Hell, most sane people are getting sick of democrats in general.

    @aqua-letifer said in More common than you might think: @jolly said in More common than you might think: Just a matter of time before that guy is road pizza... I love how we just give the motorcycle a pass. And you're likely wrong about that, depending on the area. Cars get really hamstrung by city intersections: lights at every block, pedestrians, etc., etc. The more congestion there is, the safer he'll be. Third, I counted. The total time he spent running reds during that whole video is still less than a second. Their are old riders and there are bold riders. There are no old, bold riders.

  • How many 89ths does it take to change a light bulb?

    @axtremus said in How many 89ths does it take to change a light bulb?: Worse case is you hire an electrician to replace the entire fixture. Before that, you can try breaking the glass and replacing just the glass. Before that, you can also try inviting your neighbor @brenda to come over to give it a good ole college try. She might even go over with a basket of baked goods so there is only upside for you. It's just a single fixture. Probably can buy something similar looking at the Borg for $40. Cut the power off at the breaker, take a snap with your phone on how it's wired, and replace.

    Unless the governing body can proof that a particular design or material of clothing confers a measurable artificial advantage, just let the athletes where whatever they want.

    @george-k said in Jon, you owe $85,400: @jon-nyc is no longer in NYC. Dodged a bullet, LOL. Now what does each US taxpayer owe in the national debt.... Ha. The article had the number 225k for US taxpayer, though from the number it seems like per household.

    I liked Top Gear, but stopped Grand Tour after two episodes or so. Everything was so scripted and artificial; the lightness and spontaneity of TG was gone.
