I'm digging the Stok iced coffee in stores. They’re not too sweet and chocolate flavors are nice. Also I could really go for some Drunken Noodles and Thai Sweet tea from the Thai place in town.

What terrifies me is that black people have represented a disproportionate amount of deaths due to covid-19. With the protesting that is happening there's no way transmissions are not happening. That means roughly 1.5 to 2 weeks from now we're going to see another jump in cases and once again its going to disproportionately affect the black community. They're facing death from all sides and its loving insane. They're having to put their lives at risk in multiple ways just to protest for the right to live.

I’m trying to make riding before work and getting at least 10 miles in a new habit, I’ll be damned if I let rain get in the way of getting in shape (down 18 lbs since May 4 from 277.8 to 259.8). Bikes are good. I like bikes. Some of mine are pretty AI. FWD moving bottom bracket recumbent (Cruzbike T50), Long wheelbase recumbent, and I used to have a stand-up bike as well.

bandman posted:Well that’s dumb. I had a spare set of shimano SPD pedals, but they’re heavy as poo poo and made for mountain bikes. Here’s another good one. The tubes that go from the bottom bracket (round thing that holds your pedals) to the rear wheel are called seat stays. The tube that goes up down, seat tube. And the pipe that holds the thing you sit on? Seat post. And the thing that clamps in there? A saddle. don’t call it a seat either.

Admittedly I haven't watch the very latest documentary on him that came out in the last year or so.

Its interesting that SA in its early days with the threat of internet detectives and later being hell dumped taught me and I think a lot of us to be conscious and selective with what we post on social media. I DO NOT treat my facebook as a diary as some of my friends who are the same age as me do. Although I do share certain big life events as its the most effective way to reach the people I know.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5b_-TZwQ0I Video from the ancient times of 2017 on John Oliver's show nails so much of the bs thinking of people wanting to preserve the confederacy. I wonder how many of my fellow Georgians have bothered to read our letter of secession. Its lengthy but it makes it very clear why Georgia wanted to leave the union.

KYOON GRIFFEY JR posted:These are the people who bullied the poo poo out of their peers. Anyone who truly enjoyed middle school and high school is probably sociopath. Not really?.. I know today is different but coming up through school in the 90's think about it. Most of your needs were taken care of by your parents if you had a somewhat stable household. You got to see your friends everyday. Your day was done by 3:00 pm. Compared to the loneliness that is adulthood in a lot of ways I can definitely see why some people can look back on their high school years fondly. KYOON GRIFFEY JR posted:That pretty well tracks except I was a miserable shithead in middle school for sure. Oh... well that might explain some of why you see it that way.

Which conversation are we having? People who enjoyed their high school years or people who loved their high school/college age experience more than adult life? That's a change in scope and magnitude I would think. Back when I was in high school school started at 7:40 am and was done by 3:15 pm if I remember correctly. I didn't have extracurriculars after school.

KYOON GRIFFEY JR posted:The quote was specifically about people who thought that their teen years were the best years of their life. Yeah your second reply was that. But your first comment was, "Anyone who truly enjoyed middle school and high school is probably sociopath." so different meanings and scope there like I said.

I'm post-whoring again because I got a chance to nerd out about car audio tonight and want to share. At this point my front door speakers and tweeters have been installed. Remember these: Here's another pic of the forming "tools" i used to get the tweeter grill shape: Cut out a circle of speaker grill, put it between the bearing cage (minus bearings) and race and use a bench vise and some 2x4's and you can form the shape. I made pie cuts where the grill material began to bunch up. And here is a pic of the tweeter installed in the car: My factory Honda amp outputs to front channel, rear channel, and sub. I've gone full active so my speakers are powered thusly; tweeters run off headunit power, front woofers run off the factory front channel of the amp, however that channel of the amp is plugged into the headunit's rear channel output, which becomes the woofer output in active mode. Subwoofer stays the same. Then tonight I got my pioneer home theater receiver microphone and with the help of a 80's style exercise headband, put the mic on my forehead and let the headunit do time alignment for each speaker, signal sweeps to set crossovers, then output test to set speaker sound level, and finally set the subwoofer phase. After the headunit got done I did some manual tweaks to the crossover point between my woofers and tweeters. But now the headunit knows where the speakers are physically located in my car relative to where I sit in the passenger seat and can now focus the sound on the driver's seat, the passenger's seat, or the midpoint in between. Its pretty neat to hear the sound bounce around going through the different time alignment presets once the speakers got measured. Powering the tweeters off the headunit's internal amp brings up a funny situation. Pretty much any headunit's built-in amp to power speakers will put out middling power, we're talking 12 watts continuous power if we're lucky. To put this in contrast the micro 4 channel amp I have ready to install claims roughly 50 watts continuous power (75 watts rms at 4 ohms at 14.4v if we're being specific). But even with the tweeters being powered off the headunit the auto eq set them to -6db for left tweet and -7db for the right tweet. And I have to agree them things were singing before the auto eq. But at this point all the speakers I plan on replacing for now are installed. Hooray!

Roads are crap, landscaping obscures views at a lot of intersections. Tall wagons make sense. I however went the 3rd way and drive an orange lunchbox on wheels, the Honda Element. I bought it specifically because it has enough room inside to fold up one of the seats and stow a bike in the back. And I had/have plans to take it camping one day.
