Both the bikes, need one more
  • I also have a 1200GS with Jesse Bags. They don't look great but they're tough.

  • I share my location with my wife. I can see what time she'll be home when she's leaving work. She gets to see which ditch I crashed my motorcycle into.

  • [Bug report] Images from i.imgur.com not loading (desktop win10). When I click on the little image loader it does the thinking wheel for a second then nothing happens.
  • I've noticed that clicking the link to the imgur page loads the image fine as long as you're on their page but the inline images don't load properly into kbin.

  • [Wristwatches] How a $260 plastic watch pissed off the entire watch community
  • I own basically the cheapest mechanical chronograph watch in existence and I love it. For 250 bucks you can get a "Seagull 1963" watch from China on Amazon.

    It's actually a really nice looking watch with a glass case back so you can see all the gears in the movement. It was designed by the Swiss company Venus a long time ago and they sold it to a Chinese company at some point where it got copied by a bunch of other Chinese companies.

    You might find it under a different brand name. Mine is the "Seakoss" variant. They come in a bunch of different styles and sizes so pick whichever you prefer.

    Sure maybe it's not great to be supporting China but so much stuff we buy comes from China anyway so I don't think about it too much.

    I wanted a mechanical watch so I could admire the gears but I wasn't about to drop many thousands of dollars on one so this thing fits the bill.

  • Time off and a healthy lifestyle are driving some young Americans to Europe: 'You are a person first and a worker 2nd'
  • I worked for the US division of a German company and found that the culture even for the US workers was very respectful of time off and appropriate working hours. I hated the job because I was customer facing and our customers were typically large US companies, but the German company was a great company to work for.

  • Pornhub blocks access in Mississippi and Virginia over age verification laws
  • It's kinda mind boggling to me because it's not like it's hard to find porn everywhere on the internet. Sure maybe some companies will comply and set up some sort of age verification that attempts to block minors. Other companies will do what pornhub did and just quit doing business in that state, but if a teenager wants to find porn on the internet they absolutely still will. You can torrent it, get it from usenet, or just type "boobs" into Google. Hell the Fediverse is already like 50% porn.

    It's gonna require parents monitoring their children's online activity like they should already fucking be doing because there's way worse things than porn on the internet.

    I'm tired of being penalized as an adult because parents can't seem to do the job of actually parenting their little shitstains.

  • Any love for the Bolt?
  • I like bikes that can do street and dirt so my style is dual sport and ADV. I can't be trusted with sport bikes because my wrist has a mind of its own and I'll probably end up dead. Cruisers are comfortable and great on the highway but they don't excite me in the twisties and they typically don't do dirt very well.

    Ive ridden a few cruisers (VTX 1300 and 1800, Street Glide, and a Sportster) and they were great bikes (Well not the Sportster) but they didn't excite me in the way that other bikes do.

    Two wheels is two wheels so as long as you enjoy it I'm happy for you!

  • Which Dynamic DNS Service are you using?
  • Afraid.org is what I've been using ever since dyndns started charging big prices for what used to be free.

  • The Quest to Beat abney317 | Summoning Salt
  • I love this guy's videos. I don't have the interest to follow along the speed running community but it's really enjoyable to see these summaries of notable events.

  • Any love for the Bolt?
  • It's not my style but if you enjoy it that's all that matters!

  • "Update: Relay will continue to operate from July 1st."
  • Even with a subscription cost for the API, users still won't be getting any NSFW posts. That includes porn obviously but there was also tons of non-porn NSFW content in subs like /r/drugs, /r/sex, etc.

  • Ordinary redditors are feeling the pain as well.
  • I want to hear a story about how mankind threw the undertaker 30 feet onto an announcer's table.

  • Porn Historically Decides Tech Adoption... Fediverse?
  • I don't want to block the entire instance. I still want all the real porn, just not the cartoon/AI stuff.

  • Porn Historically Decides Tech Adoption... Fediverse?
  • I've been trying to block all the Hentai, cartoon, and AI porn communities on LemmyNSFW but other than that it's pretty great! If you turn on the auto-expand images setting it makes for easy left-hand browsing.

  • YouTube could be testing a three-strikes policy for ad blocking
  • I run a plex server because I don't want to subscribe to 15 different services with 15 different shitty UIs just to watch TV. FF and rewind always works the same on Plex and the pause button is always in the same spot.

    Every time I open Netflix or Hulu or Prime I am infuriated that it doesn't immediately take me to the last show I was watching.

    Also I like to watch shows as they originally aired, not with missing episodes that Hulu pulled to keep advertisers happy (It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia and Community come to mind).

  • What are your favorite games with unique and fun magic systems?
  • Yeah came here to say the same thing. The interactions between the different spell schools is incredible and they can also interact with the environment.

  • Photo albums?
  • I wasn't able to, so instead I just added the additional pictures to comment replies on my original post. Not perfect but better than nothing.

  • Tourist dies trying to drink all 21 cocktails on bar menu
  • Beer before liquor, you'll never be sicker.

    Liquor before beer, you're in the clear.

  • Border Patrol Video of Killing Shows Native Man Had No Gun, Complied With Orders
  • It sounds like this dude didn't even have a gun on him. He obeyed all of the officer's commands and still got shot.

    Half this country is concerned that the people crossing our border aren't the "best and brightest" but what about our law enforcement? It's certainly not the "best and brightest" who become officers.

    What kind of footwear do you use for hiking?

    I've always used traditional hiking boots but I have sweaty feet, messed up toenails, and arthritis from gout. Stiff hiking boots were aggravating all of these issues so I recently switched to trail running shoes. I had avoided low cut shoes/boots because I hate getting rocks and debris in my shoes and needing to stop to take my footwear off to clean them out only for it to happen again 20 minutes later. I found an awesome set of gaiters at REI that keep debris from getting into my shoes and now I can hike in shorts which is way better than long pants. The traction and comfort of the Speedcross 6 shoes is incredible and I don't think I'll ever go back to bulky hiking boots. They're running shoes but they seem to work just as well for hiking and I've been on two hikes in Alaska without much pain in my feet. They ventilate well so my feet aren't soaked with sweat and I don't get blisters. Highly recommend trying a pair. I'm not sure if they will last very long but I'm happy to keep spending the money if they keep my feet in good shape.
