Today I learned that robots are the real life version of people that fail miserably at life in infomercials.

In my case, it is my only chain tool, for the 2 times a year I need it (and my prerequisite desire to have a multi tool in my hydration pack on every ride) I think it does the job decently and predictably.

I’ve fixed 3x chains (3 separate bikes) with this and put my newest pedals on no issue. No issues with leverage I’ve seen.

I just have the parktool 3 piece lever kit, they are cheap, interlock, weigh nothing and are appropriately sized to be functional. This tool comes in as awesome sealed case and is really awesome. I love it.

I own this in green and it’s fantastic. Worth every penny.

So annoying, the prior cast finally hit a stride and took ownership of the show and they get canned for this crew. I’m even less interested this time around than the last time they made the US version or the new U.K.

I sold Land Rover/Jaguar for a while and can confirm that the number of unqualified jerkoffs that come in to drive the 1 of 200 550+hp cars is incredibly irritating. When selling a $140,000 Range Rover SVR or Jaguar FType Project 7, you can lose a sale over your car having 70 miles vs the expected 25 on it.

I learned this was a color I loathed when I was searching for my MKIV VW Golf. I swear 60% of the 99-2004 VW Jetta’s and Golf’s were silver. Hated it on every car ever since. (Love graphite though)

I’m surprised they haven’t, they used to have a Bluetooth earpiece for phone calls that was a single ear, I’m surprised they haven’t done 2 individual ear buds that can run independently or together.

Truly interested to know why the Bose Soundsport wireless weren’t included, I’ve had a pair for a year and a half and not only are they stable to running, mountain biking and snowboarding, they also sound a heck of a lot better than the beats at a similar price.

And the Xiaomi Mi MIX was bezel less last year... whats your point? As of last fall rumors were there were 10 Tenth Anniversary phones floating around. https://www.macrumors.com/2016/11/28/curved-oled-iphone-10-prototypes-wsj/

For any photographer, unless you took a course or something, if you have never read Understanding Exposure, you could probably benefit. And anyone shooting less than a year its a must read (and I am a terrible reader, and its SUPER easy to read w/ lots of photos and examples)

After the initial episodes, Top Gear USA actually ended up showing great chemistry and was generally entertaining.

Although I will never buy one, I’m a Audi/VW guy, but I’m still interested, however they do need to speed it up. 2 months of teasers is about my limit.

The citizens pay A LOT more for uninsured people than we do a subsidy for an insured person. Here is your scenario, that fat slob you mention who eats fast food, smokes cigarettes and has open heart surgery.

If he doesn’t have insurance, he doesn’t get annual wellness visits (even unhealthy people USUALLY see the Dr…

It’s a just in time inventory system. Often the factory will have multiple warehouses nearby but since they go through a shipment in the factory in hours or days. Having a truck be off by a matter of hours can cause issue. When I worked for Land Rover I saw 4 mismatched parts in a year. A seat, cargo panel, steering…

This is actually not uncommon, for any car company with small’ish volume. Basically if the manufacturer has cars on the assembly line and a component manufacturer did not get them the required parts to finish a build (IE seats/headliner/etc) in the color needed, they will not stop production for hours/days/weeks. they…
